`
`I, Derek F. Dahlgren, declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I have been practicing in the field of intellectual property, and
`
`particularly, patent litigation, for approximately eight years.

`2.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the Bars of the District of
`
`Columbia and the State of Virginia (inactive). I am admitted to practice in the
`
`United States District Court for the District of Columbia. I am also admitted to
`
`practice in the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
`
`3.
`
`I served as a law clerk to then-Chief Judge Randall R. Rader at the
`
`United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit from 2013-2014.
`
`4.
`
`I have been in private practice and litigating patent cases since 2010,
`
`except for a one year period during my clerkship at the Federal Circuit. I also
`
`served as a full-time law clerk working on various patent matters under the
`
`supervision of attorneys from 2007 until my graduation from law school in
`
`February 2010.
`
`5.
`
`I have never been suspended or disbarred from practice before any
`
`court or administrative body.
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`I have never had a court or administrative body deny my application
`
`Case IPR2018-00386
`Patent 9,490,411
`
`
`6.
`
`for admission to practice.
`
`7.

`No sanctions or contempt citations have ever been imposed against
`
`me by any court or administrative body.

`
`Guide and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials, as set forth in Part 42 of 37
`
`C.F.R.
`
`9.
`
`I agree to be subject to the USPTO Rules of Professional Conduct set
`
`forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et seq. and disciplinary jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 11.19(a). I also agree to be subject to the USPTO Rules of Professional Conduct
`
`as set forth in Changes to Representation of Others Before the United States Patent
`
`and Trademark Office; Final Rule, 78 Fed. Reg. 20180 (Apr. 3, 2013) (effective
