`
`Each motion is supported by a declaration of Mr. Bettinger. Ex. 2005.

`
`admit Mr. Bettinger pro hac vice.
`
`
`
`It is therefore

`
`ORDERED that Patent Owner’s motion for pro hac vice admission of
`
`Michael J. Bettinger in the above-identified proceedings is granted;

`FURTHER ORDERED that Mr. Bettinger is authorized to appear as
