-2- NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL OF COUNSEL, 

AND ORDER THEREON

TO THE HONORABLE COURT, AND TO ALL PARTIES AND THEIR 

COUNSEL OF RECORD: 

Pursuant to Civil L.R. 11-5(a), Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLP

(including, but not limited to, attorney Nathaniel Bruno) hereby provides notice of its 

withdrawal from this action as counsel of record for Plaintiffs/Counterdefendants 

CELLECTRICON AB and GYROS AB (collectively, "Plaintiffs"). 

Attorney Neil A. Smith is no longer with Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton 

LLP, and this withdrawal by Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLP is made in connection 

with Plaintiffs' request that Mr. Smith continue to represent Plaintiffs as their local counsel in this 

action at his current law firm of Ropers Majeski Kohn Bentley PC. Sheppard Mullin Richter & 

Hampton LLP expects that Mr. Smith will enter an appearance as counsel of record for Plaintiffs 

with and on behalf of Ropers Majeski Kohn Bentley PC to serve as Plaintiffs' local counsel. 

Plaintiffs continue in any event to be represented by counsel of record in this 

action from the law firm of Edwards Angell Palmer & Dodge LLP, including Californiaregistered attorney Brian M. Gaff (California Bar No. 202896), as well as David G. Conlin and 

George W. Neuner who are appearing in this action pro hac vice. Accordingly, the withdrawal of 

Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLP does not leave Plaintiffs without counsel of record, 

including California-registered counsel. Per Civil L.R. 11-5(a), Defendant Fluxion Biosciences, 

Inc. has also been given notice of Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLP's withdrawal. 

DATED: August 4, 2010 SHEPPARD MULLIN RICHTER & HAMPTON LLP
