`
`Case No. 2117-CV'517
`
`AFFIDAVIT OF CHAO (GEORGE) SHAN
`
`I, Chao (George) Shan, declare under penalty of perjury as follows3
`
`1.
`
`I am over the age of eighteen years and competent to make this declaration.
`
`2. The facts stated in this Declaration are true and correct to the best of my
`
`knowledge and belief.
`
`3.
`
`I am employed in the role of Vice President of Human Resources and
`
`Administration at ZTE (TX) Inc. (“ZTX”). I have held this position for 3 years
`
`and, as such, I have personal knowledge of ZTX’S personnel, operations, and
`
`locations worldwide, including the United States.
`
`4.
`
`I understand that, in the Opposition brief filed by AGIS Software
`
`Development, LLC (“AGIS) (dkt. #46), AGIS asserts that “ZTX further
`
`concedes that this District (the Eastern District of Texas) is convenient for at
`
`least its 14 employees in this District.” However, this misconstrues my
`
`earlier declaration (dkt. #38). The fourteen employees living in the Eastern
`
`District of Texas are not relevant to this matter, and they are unlikely to
`
`testify at all in this case. As I previously declared:

`
`knowledge relevant to this case.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed
