Pursuant to Local Rule 7-12, Plaintiffs Oracle USA, Inc., Oracle International Corporation and Siebel Systems, Inc. ("Plaintiffs" or "Oracle") and Defendants TomorrowNow, Inc. ("TN"), SAP AG, and SAP America, Inc. ("SAP"; and, together with TN, "Defendants"; and, all together with Oracle, the "Parties"), jointly submit this Trial Stipulation and [Proposed] Order regarding liability, dismissal of certain claims, the preservation of certain defenses, objections to evidence at trial, and the length of the Parties' evidentiary presentations and arguments. The Parties agree that the terms of this stipulation shall not be binding or effective unless and until the Court accepts the stipulated terms in their entirety. The Parties reserve the right to withdraw agreement to any or all terms if the Court chooses not to accept any term. NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HEREBY STIPULATE AND AGREE, through their respective counsel of record, as follows: TRIAL STIPULATION AND PROPOSED ORDER 1. TN stipulates to all liability on all claims (preserving no defenses,

including any raised on summary judgment but retaining all defenses to damages as described in paragraph 5 below). TN therefore stipulates to all liability on Oracle's claims for copyright infringement, violations of the Federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act and California's Computer Data Access and Fraud Act, breach of contract, intentional interference, negligent interference, unfair competition, trespass to chattels, unjust enrichment/restitution and an accounting. SAP will not contend that Oracle has failed to prove indirect liability as to SAP due to a failure of proof against TN. 2. SAP stipulates to vicarious liability on the copyright claims against TN in

their entirety (preserving no defenses, including any raised on summary judgment, but retaining all defenses as to damages as described in paragraph 5 below) and agrees to guarantee payment of any judgment awarded against TN or SAP. 3. Oracle dismisses with prejudice all claims against SAP except for indirect

copyright infringement and except as to any right to appeal any rulings made by the trial court (e.g., saved development costs as a basis for unjust enrichment), which Oracle preserves for all

purposes. Oracle therefore retains claims against SAP for contributory copyright infringement, to which SAP retains all pleaded defenses, including as described in paragraph 5 below, at the trial scheduled for November 1, 2010. 4. The Parties envision that the jury will be instructed, and the jury verdict

form will reflect, that the Parties have stipulated to liability for certain claims against TN and SAP as set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above (which the parties may refer to at any time during trial). Subject only to the trial time limits set forth in paragraph 8 below, the Parties may present evidence at trial related to the stipulated claims as background or context for the stipulated claims, and/or as relevant to damages or other claims and defenses not stipulated to or dismissed by the Parties. The Parties will not object to evidence related to the stipulated claims pursuant to Federal Rules of Evidence 401-403 (including that the evidence is irrelevant, cumulative, unduly time consuming or prejudicial) on grounds that the evidence relates to the stipulated claims. Oracle may not argue to the Court, jury or public that SAP is in fact liable on claims that Oracle agrees to dismiss under paragraph 3, or not pursue under paragraph 7, and SAP may not argue to the Court, jury or public that either (i) TN in fact is not liable on claims stipulated under paragraph 1, or (ii) SAP in fact is not liable on the basis of vicarious liability as stipulated under paragraph 2. 5. SAP and TN retain all defenses to the alleged causation, fact or amount of

or entitlement to disgorgement, actual or punitive damages or any other legal or equitable remedy. For example, on some claim as to which TN had elected not to contest liability, it may still argue that a particular remedy is not available. 6. The Parties preserve their rights to appeal any judgment against them

except as to issues or claims to which they have stipulated. 7. Act. 8. The length of trial is shortened to 36 hours per side for presentation of The jury is to consider only those damages available under the Copyright

testimony and argument to the jury. 9. Defendants agree to entry of an injunction enjoining TN from: 07-CV-01658 PJH (EDL) 2

(1) infringing Oracle's copyrights in Oracle's PeopleSoft-branded enterprise application software, J.D. Edwards-branded enterprise application software, Siebel-branded enterprise application software, and Oracle's Relational Database Management System software, and related support products; (2) accessing any password-protected Oracle website in any way not compliant with the Terms of Use for that website or with the customer license associated with the log-in credential being used; (3) using any automated downloading program (including Titan, spiders, bots, crawlers and scrapers) on any Oracle website; and (4) interfering with Oracle's customers by offering support for their Oracle products using software or downloads obtained from a different customer generally directed at the stipulated conduct. 10.

stipulation has no force or effect in any other proceeding or jurisdiction. IT IS SO STIPULATED. DATED: September 9, 2010 BINGHAM McCUTCHEN LLP By: /s/ Geoffrey M. Howard
