`
`litigation experience, and has litigated numerous patent cases in federal district courts;

`represents the Petitioner as counsel of record in the related district court proceeding,

`Seymour Levine v. The Boeing Company, Case No. 2:14-cv-1991-RSL (W.D. Wash.),
`
`concerning U.S. Patent No. RE39,618; (5) Petitioner has a need to have its counsel in
`
`the co-pending litigation involved in this proceeding; and (6) Ryan J. McBrayer, lead

`counsel for Petitioner with respect to the inter partes review, is a partner at Perkins
`
`Coie LLP and a registered practitioner before the United States Patent and Trademark
