TomorrowNow further objects that this interrogatory is compound, is actually several interrogatories, is wholly or partially duplicative of several other interrogatories served by Oracle (including Nos. 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12 of this set and 1, 2 and 4 of the set served by Oracle USA Inc.), and is unduly burdensome and oppressive to the extent it seeks a narrative answer as to a laundry list of disparate subjects. Subject to and without waiving the foregoing objections and the General Objections and Responses, TomorrowNow responds by incorporating by reference and relies on its responses to Interrogatories Nos. 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12 of this set and Interrogatories 1, 2 and 4 of the set served by Oracle USA Inc., including those documents cited in those responses. TomorrowNow further responds as follows: TomorrowNow has accessed, downloaded and/or stored Software and Support Materials on behalf of its new customers. TomorrowNow has done so after receiving from the customer certain representations and warranties that the customer is entitled to permit TomorrowNow such access on its behalf. TomorrowNow's policy was only to conduct downloads for a customer using the specific password and user id. provided by that customer and only before the relevant Maintenance End Date for that customer. Until recently, TomorrowNow conducted the downloads and stored the relevant materials on its computers. The downloads were conducted by TomorrowNow's employees using certain laptop and desktop m computers computers as well as dedicated download servers located at TomorrowNow's data center in Bryan, Texas. TomorrowNow then transferred and stored downloaded materials on certain file servers, the relevant files and file folders from which will be included in TomorrowNow's document production and on which TomorrowNow relies to further respond to this interrogatory pursuant to Rule 33(d). TomorrowNow set forth the policies and procedures governing the downloading and storage of relevant materials in procedure documentation, including emails, which will be included in TomorrowNow's document production and on which TomorrowNow relies to further respond to this interrogatory pursuant to Rule 33(d). Beginning in July 2007, TomorrowNow revised its procedures to have its customers conduct all appropriate downloads HUI-121363v1 - 12 - TOMORROWNOW'S EIGHTH AMENDED & SUPP. RESP. TO ROGS.

Beginning in July 2007, TomorrowNow may on occasion assist or advise its customers in conducting downloads, but it is TomorrowNow's policy that each customer makes the ultimate decision regarding which materials that customer downloads. TomorrowNow has taken other steps to update its business processes, in part to address the uncertainty caused by Oracle's allegations and Oracle's refusal to provide information underlying its claims. Documents describing these process changes will be included in TomorrowNow's document production and on which TomorrowNow relies to further respond to this interrogatory pursuant to Rule 33(d). SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 3: THIS SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE IS DESIGNATED AS CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. TomorrowNow further responds that its policies and procedures documents include but are not limited to TN-OR00001278 ­ TN-OR00004196. Downloaded material (in native format) includes but is not limited to TN-OR00004203, TN-OR00005106 and TN-OR00005147. TomorrowNow reserves the right to further supplement this response as necessary during the course of document production. SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 3: THIS SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE IS DESIGNATED AS CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. This compound interrogatory would require TomorrowNow to chronicle information that involved numerous employees, took place over several years, and is too complex and detailed to describe in an interrogatory response. Pursuant to Rule 33(d), TomorrowNow points Plaintiffs to the SAS database, which is a tool TomorrowNow used to chronicle its business efforts to service clients. See TN-OR 03775478, TN(Hard drive).67, TN-OR 04446717, TN(Disc).173, TN-OR 04446719, TN(Hard drive).75. Further, in addition to the policies and procedures cited above, policies and procedures documents related to the provision of Software and Support Materials to Customers include, but are not limited to, SAP-OR00251437, TN-OR00411402, TNHUI-121363v1 - 13 - TOMORROWNOW'S EIGHTH AMENDED & SUPP.

For information regarding how TomorrowNow stores and maintains Software and Support Materials, including the identification of the computers, servers or other devices the Software and Support Materials are stored, TomorrowNow relies on all of its current responses to Interrogatory No. 11 of this set, which is incorporated by reference. The most complete record of the TomorrowNow employees who had access to the Software and Support Materials prior to the wind down of TomorrowNow can be derived from the SAS database. See TN-OR 03775478, TN(Hard drive).67, TN-OR 04446717, TN(Disc).173, TN-OR 04446719, TN(Hard drive).75. The SAS database also contains the most complete record of how TomorrowNow employees accessed those Software and Support Materials. Id. The most complete record regarding the fixes TomorrowNow provided its customers can be derived from TN-OR 00009557, TN(Disc).9, TN-OR04497673, TN(Disc).186 (client fixes from Web 01, DCWEB01); TN-OR04497668, TN(Hard drive).78 (client fixes from Mail 03). In addition, some of the overly broad and unduly burdensome information that this request seeks can be derived from the hours of overlapping 30(b)(6) testimony. See October 29, 2007 Deposition of Bill Thomas Pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6); October 29-30, 2007 Deposition of Mark Kreutz Pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6); October 30, 2007 Deposition of Shelley Nelson Pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6); December 6, 2007 Deposition of Shelley Nelson Pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6); February 67, 2008 Deposition of John Baugh Pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6); February 19, 2008 Deposition of Mark Kreutz Pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6); June 25, 2008 Deposition of Rod Russell Pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6); April 1, 2008 Deposition of Kathy Williams Pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6); April 1, 2008 Deposition of Catherine Hyde Pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6).
