Estimated Costs To Independently Create PeopleSoft/J.D. Edwards Copyrighted Materials in Suit 150. I understand that Oracle's expert Paul Pinto was retained to estimate the costs that Defendants would have had to incur to independently develop the Oracle copyrighted materials in suit that Defendants allegedly illegally accessed, copied and misused. I understand that Mr. Pinto has concluded that it would have cost Defendants approximately $1.275 billion with a range of $936 million to $2.903 billion to develop 7 specific PeopleSoft and J.D. Edwards software applications.348 151. Additionally, I understand that Mr. Pinto has concluded that, if it were possible to be completed in two years, it would take Defendants 2,374 appropriatelytrained personnel to complete the development of the 7 PeopleSoft/J.D. Edwards software applications he analyzed.349 As explained in section IV.B.2 of this Report, the timing of SAP's offering of TomorrowNow support services was critical to its overall strategy to disrupt Oracle's business and convert Oracle's PeopleSoft, J.D.

According to Mr. Pinto, "A development effort of this scope and complexity would be an extremely large project, very aggressive, and of highrisk to be pursued within this timeframe."

If faced with a multiyear development timeframe in lieu of using Oracle's copyrighted property, SAP may have determined that offering TomorrowNow support services as an integral part of its Safe Passage program was not an attractive business decision. Therefore, SAP would likely be willing to pay more than the cost to independently develop the intellectual property in order to receive a time to market advantage and to avoid the risk of unsuccessful development. d. Summary: Fair Market Value Using Cost Approach 152. In my opinion, the cost approach would indicate a fair market value of SAP's use of Oracle's copyrighted materials in suit of no less than $936 million, with other considerations indicating that development costs, and the risks of development failure, would be much higher. I am relying on Mr. Pinto, who has estimated the costs to independently develop certain software applications that were accessed by TomorrowNow and SAP.350 B. 153. Summary: "Value of Use" of PeopleSoft/J.D. Edwards Copyrighted Materials Based on Market, Income and Cost Approaches Table 8 summarizes the fair market values of the PeopleSoft/J.D. Edwards copyrighted materials in suit based on the market, income and cost approaches. In my opinion, these metrics and the valuation analysis previously described indicate that no less than $2 billion is the fair market value for the PeopleSoft/J.D. Edwards copyrighted materials in suit.

Page 142 of 281 Subject to Protective Order Highly Confidential Information ­ Attorneys' Eyes Only TEXT REMOVED - NOT RELEVANT TO MOTION b. Summary: Fair Market Value Using The Market Approach 274. SAP was projecting obtaining 200 Siebel support customers, or approximately 5%, of Siebel's 4,000 customers.568 After considering the transactions described above, and providing particular focus on the Siebel acquisition, in my opinion, the market approach indicates a fair market value of SAP's use of Oracle's Siebel copyrighted materials in suit of no less than TEXT REMOVED - NOT RELEVANT TO MOTION "Apollo Competitive Program Office Program Playbook," SAPOR00790353387 (Hurst Exhibit 1597), at 355; Email from Christian Klein to Thomas Ziemen and Bernd Welz (Vice President System Service Solution Management), dated October 25, 2005 with attached Business Case files, SAPOR00250204225, (Hurst Exhibit 1601), at 223 and 225. 568 Page 185 of 281 Subject to Protective Order Highly Confidential Information ­ Attorneys' Eyes Only $170 million, computed as 5% of the $3.4 billion in intangible asset value related to support revenues, customer relationships and goodwill.569 Additionally, using the $1.525 million average cost per customer resulting from the Siebel acquisition described above, extended to the 200 potentially lost customers, indicates a value of $305 million. 2. Income Approach 275. In determining SAP's "value of use" of the Siebel copyrighted material in suit, I have employed the income approach by determining the incremental net cash flows Oracle would expect to lose to SAP as a result of licensing the copyrighted materials. I have also considered analyses performed contemporaneously by SAP or TomorrowNow indicating the revenues they expected to receive and/or the amount of Oracle's business they expected to displace. TEXT REMOVED - NOT RELEVANT TO MOTION 569 $3.4 billion intangible asset value times 5% (200/4,000 customers = 5%). $3.4 *5% = $170 million.
