`
`any others that the Board may impose. Petitioner sets forth these facts in support
`
`of this motion:

`1.
`
`The undersigned contacted counsel for patent owner Arendi (Mr.
`
`Robert Asher), who indicated that Patent Owner did not plan to oppose Mr. Kent’s
`
`admission pro hac vice.

`
`established familiarity with the subject matter at issue in this proceeding.

`Accompanying this motion is Exhibit 1012, the Declaration of Robert J. Kent in
