`
`
`
`I, Peter T. Ewald, declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I have been practicing in the field of intellectual property, and
`
`particularly patent litigation, for over ten years. I have been lead or assistant
`
`counsel in more than 25 patent litigations in district courts across the country since
`
`October 2005.
`
`2.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the Bar of the Commonwealth of
`
`Virginia and am admitted to practice before the U.S. District Court for the Eastern
`
`District of Virginia and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
`
`3.
`
`I have never been suspended or disbarred from practice before any
`
`court or administrative body.
`
`4.
`
`I have never had a court or administrative body deny my application
`
`for admission to practice.
`
`5.
`
`I have never had any sanctions or contempt citations imposed upon
`
`me by any court or administrative body.
`
`6.
`
`I have read and will comply with the Office Patent Trial Practice
`
`Guide and the Board's Rules of Practice for Trials set forth in part 42 of 37 C.F.R.
`
`7.
`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 have appeared pro hac vice before the Office in a previous matter. In
`8.
`March 2016, I was granted permission to appear pro hac vice in proceeding
`
`number IPR2015-00465 as counsel for the Petitioner.
`
`9.
`
`I am familiar with the subject matter at issue in this proceeding and I
`
`have been involved since Patent Owner was served with the Petition on March 5,
`
`2018. In particular, I have worked closely with Patent Owner and Patent Owner's
`
`lead counsel to review and asses the allegation in the Petition, reviewed the 308
`
`Patent and its prosecution history, and reviewed the relevant case law cited by
`
`Petitioner. I was also significantly involved in the preparation of Patent Owner's
`
`June 22, 2018 Preliminary Response.
`
`10.
`
`I hereby declare that all statements made herein of my own
`
`knowledge are true and that all statement 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 18 U.S.C. 1001.
