`
`
`R2 Semiconductor, Inc. (“Patent Owner”) filed a Motion for pro hac
`
`vice admission of Iman Lordgooei. Paper 44 (“Mot.”).2 Patent Owner
`
`provided a Declaration of Mr. Lordgooei in support of the Motion. Ex.

`2055. Patent Owner states that Intel Corporation (“Petitioner”) does not
`
`oppose Patent Owner’s Motion. Mot. 1.
`
`Having reviewed the Motion and the Declaration of Mr. Lordgooei,
`
`we conclude that Mr. Lordgooei has sufficient qualifications to represent

`Patent Owner in these proceedings and that Patent Owner has shown good
`
`cause for Mr. Lordgooei’s pro hac vice admission. See Unified Patents, Inc.

`v. Parallel Iron, LLC, IPR2013-00639, Order Authorizing Motion for Pro
`
`Hac Vice Admission, Paper 7 (PTAB October 15, 2003) (setting forth
`
`requirements for pro hac vice admission). Mr. Lordgooei is permitted to
`
`appear pro hac vice in these proceedings as back-up counsel only. See 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.10(c).
`
`
`
`It is:
`
`ORDER
`
`ORDERED that Patent Owner’s Motion for pro hac vice admission of
`
`Iman Lordgooei is granted, and Mr. Lordgooei is authorized to represent
`
`Patent Owner only as back-up counsel in this proceeding;
`
`
`
`
`
`2 For expediency, we refer to the papers filed in IPR2017-00705. Patent
`Owner filed similar papers in IPR2017-00706, -00707, -00708, -01123, and
