`
`
`
`I, Antonio Tarquini, declare as follows:
`
`
`
`I am a Patent Information Professional at the Notarbartolo & Gervasi
`
`patent consultancy firm in Milan, Italy.
`
`
`
`In July 2019, I contacted the editor of Pacini Editore SRL, the
`
`publisher of the Giornale Italiano di Ortopedia e Traumatologia (“GIOT”).
`
`
`
`Through email and phone conversations with employees of the
`
`publisher, I requested information regarding the date on which the journal
`
`containing the article entitled M. Varenna, L’inquadramento clinico della sindrome
`
`algodistrofica (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome di tipo I). Recenti Acquisizioni,
`
`The clinical framework of algodystrophy (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome type
`
`I). An Update, GIOT Ottobre 2011 37:227-234 (“Varenna 2011”) became publicly
`
`available.
`
`
`
`In response to my request, I received a signed declaration via email
`
`from Susanna Campigli (scampigli@pacinieditore.it) on July 15, 2019 setting forth
`
`the circumstances of the public dissemination of Varenna 2011. This document is
`
`attached hereto as Exhibit 1.
`
`
`
`I further requested documentation showing shipments of the journals
`
`containing Varenna 2011, but I was told that this internal documentation could not
`
`be provided due to privacy concerns.
`
`
`
`1
`
`
`
`
`
`I make this declaration based on my own personal knowledge and
`
`experiences, and if called upon as a witness, could competently testify to the
`
`matters stated herein.
`
`
`
`I declare that all statements made herein on my own knowledge are
`
`true and that all statements made on information and belief are believed to be true,
`
`and further, that these statements were made with the knowledge that willful false
`
`statements and the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`under Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States Code.
