they were produced to Oracle. MR. PICKETT: Q. Well, you do recall that
some of the customers' declarations came in after your initial report. A. Q. Correct?
That's my understanding. And do you know why they came in after you
had submitted your report? A. Q. No. What did you do, if anything, to obtain
declarations from customers? A. I don't recall doing anything to obtain
declarations from customers. Q. So how did you receive customer
declarations? A. Q. They came from Jones Day. So whatever declarations you refer to in
your report were simply something that came to you from the SAP attorneys? MR. McDONELL: Misstates the testimony and

MR. PICKETT:
Q.
Why do you need a
discussion of legal cases for purposes of your analysis? MR. McDONELL: THE WITNESS: Vague and ambiguous. As I tried to explain
previously a number of times, the -- the law deals with the legal aspects of a case. Mr. Meyer and I
deal with the economic aspects of a case. But we don't do the economics in a vacuum. We do them within the context of the law. there's an intersection between those two interests, the legal and the economic. And in And
order to do a good job in that process, you have to have an understanding of both sides of the equation. So I'm not an expert in law, I'm not a lawyer, but I do have to understand what the appropriate approach from an economic point of view is under the law. And frequently, to be honest, I look at the law, and I feel that, from an economic point of view, there's conflict, that the guidance that the law gives me isn't necessarily right on point with

that the Court held, quote, "Common sense dictates that an expert may confer with the copyright holder and that the background data may be factored into calculations of actual damages." Were you aware of that? MR. McDONELL: Assumes facts not in

I criticized him for the way in which
he used what he learned, and I think I've been very clear that there were aspects of what they told him that I think have no place in his report. And for
them to do math of the highest speculative order and call that a methodology I think is particularly inappropriate. But, there are quite a few pages and iterations of my criticism of that approach of his in the report. I don't think that's appropriate. Of course,

MR. McDONELL:
Incomplete.
You're not
pointing out exactly what you're talking about in Mr. Meyer's report. THE WITNESS: I recollect that there were
several places in his report where he said, this is what we think the damages might be, "we" being the senior executives of the company. I think it's inappropriate for an expert to bring that information into his report without some critical evaluation that says, this makes sense. If it doesn't make sense -- and clearly
there are statements by the senior executives that make no sense whatsoever -- then I think the expert should apply his standards of control and quality, and common sense, frankly, to say, they may think that, but that's not what I'm going to put into my report. If they think it, they can testify about it at trial. But it doesn't and shouldn't form a
basis for me to do my analysis in the case. MR. PICKETT: Q. So what you're saying
is, it's appropriate for an expert to bring into his report, consider the senior executives' views, but he has to review them for their reasonability? A. I think that's the job of every expert in

every case.
If -- just a moment.
The defendants frequently think that there are no damages and might try to pressure an expert into giving that opinion. If the expert thinks that there are damages, I don't think it's appropriate for them to include in their report, the defendants think there are no damages here, because he doesn't believe that. So that's important. Frequently, Plaintiffs will think that the damage number is exceptionally high. In this
particular case, as I recall, Ms. Catz was quoted as saying that she thought the damage would be in excess of 12 billion dollars. I don't think that Mr. Meyer didn't

actually include that, but there were statements on that vein that he did include. belong in there. I think what belongs in the expert's report is the expert's opinion, and that's what it should be limited to. That's my view. I And I don't think they
understand that you and he differ on that. that's fine. Q.
Well, you do agree that an expert may
factor that information into the calculations of

Right? Are you reading from his

report, Counsel, and do you want to point it out to him? MR. PICKETT: THE WITNESS: No and no. It depends. It depends on
whether what you're hearing makes any sense in the context of what you know as an economics expert. And if it doesn't make sense, then I don't think it is right to factor it in. You have to withstand
the pressure from your client to do what they want you to do, whether that's the defense or the plaintiff. You have to do what you think is right.

that I have made certain assumptions about the liability in the case. And I have done so within
the context of certain other expert reports that I've referenced in my report to try to determine what the subject IP is, because, as I understand it, what's at issue here is the value of that use of that subject IP. So without a proper understanding of that, we can't begin to do the next thing. So I didn't blindly assume, which is I think what your question implied, that all of the PeopleSoft, all of the JD Edwards, all of the Siebel software had been, to use your words, stolen by SAP. I -- that's not my area, and I don't think
there are any -- there's any acceptance that that is as yet a proven fact. So I've done what I think is the appropriate economic analysis, based upon the subject IP as I've defined it, which I think is the appropriate definition to apply in this case. MR. PICKETT: A. Q. Tell me --
And I understand that Mr. Meyer calculated
the value of something else, and no doubt we'll argue about that over the next couple of days and possibly at trial.

Q.
Tell me every assumption you made with
respect to the liability. MR. McDONELL: broad. THE WITNESS: I assumed that the alleged Vague and ambiguous, overly
actions were proven to the extent that they applied to the facts of the case. So not everything that
the plaintiffs say in their complaint do I accept to be true. And one of those things, as an
example, was that -- Mr. Meyer used this terminology many times -- the entire business model was infringing. I don't think that's true. And there's
expert opinion on that that indicates that that's not true. I also think that I did my own analysis of elements of how much of the intellectual property was infringed and for how long, and the manner in which it was used, as I've spent 300 pages here explaining to you. And so I have assumed that there is liability, but I've not assumed that everything you say in the complaint is true. MR. PICKETT: Q. So you've done your own
analysis of what SAP infringed and what they did

It took place -- and again,
I'm accepting your liability argument here -- in certain geographic territories. That use was made
by TomorrowNow and SAP of that subject IP for that period of time. And those limitations mean that what I have included does not -- is not equal to the entire intellectual property that was acquired by Oracle in the PeopleSoft and the Siebel transactions. Okay. Q. On your own analysis,

So that was how the damage started. It

different for many companies, and I have maybe 50 or 60 pages of the report that address this. My understanding, my analysis of those agreements, was that there was a de minimus charge. I think I used that terminology. There were a few
thousand dollars here and there that were levied by PeopleSoft to these companies. Companies who were customers of PeopleSoft and JD Edwards could do their own support. they could do that legally. And
They could have third
parties come in and help them to do that self-support activity. So what I defined as the delta was, since all of that was perfectly acceptable, de minimus or zero license fees required, not even a license required, just operating under the customer's license, that there was some delta. There was
something else that the alleged actions brought into play. And those items were things like
developing bug fixes for one customer and promulgating them to other customers. Keeping
copies of a company's -- a customer's environment on their own computers. And I've delineated these
items in the delta in my report. So it's that delta for that period of time

Is that what
I'm just trying to define scope. It does, but more with respect to the
breadth of the license in terms of what products it covers. A. In this case, as in other cases that I've
done this kind of analysis, it's the license that would apply to the accused conduct. The
allegations -- the alleged actions in the case. And if I may, I'd just like to clarify something from the discussions immediately before lunch. You asked me about my assumptions regarding the reasonable royalty and the -- the use that that would apply to. And I said I hadn't
parsed out the alleged actions and accused conduct versus the duration, the time, et cetera. I had assumed, for the purposes of calculating the royalty rate that I have opined to, that all of the actions were infringing. Even
though I recognize that there are now elements of the case where that isn't -- that isn't the state of the argument.

If you assume that you couldn't do any kind of assistance to an Oracle customer at all, other than illegally, then I -- you might be right.

was allowed to be done without a license, and then look at the alleged actions in terms of TomorrowNow, it's only that difference that we're trying to calculate the license for. Because you

calculated; it's what I have calculated. MR. PICKETT: Q. Aren't you assuming that
TomorrowNow will do everything it could do legally, and -- let me rephrase that. Your license is limited to the three numbered paragraphs on page 116. nature and scope of the license. MR. McDONELL: THE WITNESS: Object to the form. No. You mean just the Right? The
bulleted points 1, 2, and 3? MR. PICKETT: Q. The delta consisted of Correct?
the following three bulleted points. A. Q. Yes.
And the nature and scope of the license is Right? Object to the form. Yeah, I think -- I think

MR. McDONELL: THE WITNESS:
that's a fairly -- that's a decent summing up of what I'm getting at here. It's the difference between what will be legally allowed and what I am interpreting the complaint to say TomorrowNow did.
