`17· · · · · · · · · · · · EXAMINATION
`18· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`19· · · · Q.· ·Good morning, Mr. Robinson.
`20· · · · A.· ·Hello.
`21· · · · Q.· ·Would you please state and spell your
`22· ·name for the record.
`23· · · · A.· ·Scott Robinson.· S-c-o-t-t,

`25· · · · Q.· ·And what is your current address?
`
`Page 9
`·1· · · · Q.· ·Do you understand that you are under oath
`·2· ·today as you testify, as you would be if you were
`·3· ·testifying in a court of law?
`·4· · · · A.· ·Yes.

`·6· ·to complete and truthful answers to the best of
`·7· ·your recollection?
`·8· · · · A.· ·Yes.
`·9· · · · Q.· ·Is there any reason, Mr. Robinson, that
`10· ·you cannot give your most truthful, accurate and
`11· ·complete testimony today?
`12· · · · A.· ·No.
`13· · · · Q.· ·Could you please tell me, Mr. Robinson,
`14· ·how you prepared for your deposition?
`15· · · · A.· ·There were a lot of documents.· The
`16· ·complaint was reviewed.· There were internal and
`17· ·external marketing documents that were produced by
`18· ·Alphatec.· There was a design history file.· There
`19· ·were, you know, as many documents related to this
`20· ·case as were made available.
`21· · · · Q.· ·Did you choose any of the documents that
`22· ·you reviewed to prepare for your deposition?
`23· · · · A.· ·I am not sure I understand the question.
`24· · · · Q.· ·Sure.· So when you reviewed documents to

`Page 34
`·1· · · · · · ·MS. DEVINE:· We'll come back to get the
`·2· ·answer to that question.
`·3· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· Right.· So just to
`·4· ·be clear, we are not waiving privilege.
`·5· · · · · · ·MS. DEVINE:· That is fine.· But we'll
`·6· ·come back at Alphatec's expense to get the answer
`·7· ·to that question because the record is clear --
`·8· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· You will have to
`·9· ·move on it.
`10· · · · · · ·MS. DEVINE:· Let me finish.
`11· · · · · · ·The record is clear that he testified in
`12· ·2013 that there was a request for an evaluation of
`13· ·the IP landscape to Alphatec legal.· And now you're
`14· ·instructing him not to tell me if it was done at
`15· ·any other date based on privilege.
`16· · · · · · ·It is not -- not privileged at one point
`17· ·and unprivileged in another.
`18· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· It's -- he did not
`19· ·provide you any privileged information.· He
`20· ·provided you a general description of what is
`21· ·contained in the design history file that existed
`22· ·in 2013, which you have, by the way.
`23· · · · · · ·MS. DEVINE:· Well, the record says what
`24· ·he testified to.· So we'll hold it open, and we'll
`25· ·come back and get an answer to that.· And you can
`
`Page 36
`·1· ·needs, and, if possible, made that, you know,
`·2· ·simpler and more streamlined and more intuitive for
`·3· ·certain customers.
`·4· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`·5· · · · Q.· ·But the topic is whether Alphatec formed
`·6· ·a good-faith belief that the patents-in-suit were
`·7· ·either invalid or not infringed.
`·8· · · · · · ·What can you tell me about that?
`·9· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· Objection.· The
`10· ·witness has been designated subject to our
`11· ·responses.
`12· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`13· · · · Q.· ·You can answer.
`14· · · · A.· ·I mean, I -- I, in my efforts, and I
`15· ·would say we as a company, you look to the
`16· ·marketplace to see, you know, how problems have
`17· ·been solved, and then you try to improve on those.
`18· ·You try to make -- you try to design the best
`19· ·products you can.
`20· · · · · · ·You know, inspiration comes from all
`21· ·kinds of places.· And, you know, we would sit in a
`22· ·room and we would talk about the best way to solve
`23· ·a problem.· That is the way that our products came
`24· ·to be.
`25· · · · · · ·And we did not -- you know, we were not
`
`Page 35
`
`·1· ·pay for it.
`·2· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`·3· · · · Q.· ·Going back to Topic 2.· Again, the topic
`·4· ·reads "When and under what circumstances Alphatec
`·5· ·first became aware of each of the patents-in-suit
`·6· ·and what actions Alphatec took on becoming aware of
`·7· ·the patents-in-suit."
`·8· · · · · · ·Do you have any other information to
`·9· ·provide to me regarding Topic 2?
`10· · · · A.· ·Not that I can recall at this time.
`11· · · · Q.· ·Let's move to Topic 3.· "For each of the
`12· ·patents-in-suit, whether Alphatec formed a
`13· ·good-faith belief the patent was either invalid or
`14· ·not infringed, as well as the basis for any such
`15· ·good-faith belief and whether the belief is based
`16· ·on the opinion of counsel."
`17· · · · · · ·What can you tell me about Topic 3?
`18· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· I will caution you
`19· ·on privilege.
`20· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· I mean, at the time, I was
`21· ·a design engineer, and my role was to design
`22· ·products that met the clinical requirements of
`23· ·lateral surgery.· And my effort was to understand
`24· ·the clinical requirements to the greatest of my
`25· ·ability and develop instrumentation that met those
`
`Page 37
`·1· ·experts in the IP landscape, but we believed that
`·2· ·what we had designed was significantly different
`·3· ·from products that had come before it.
`·4· · · · Q.· ·When you say "We were not experts in the
`·5· ·IP landscape," you mean the engineers?
`·6· · · · A.· ·Correct.
`·7· · · · Q.· ·But you had lawyers, correct?
`·8· · · · A.· ·Not on the core team.
`·9· · · · Q.· ·Did you consult with lawyers?
`10· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· You can answer yes
`11· ·or no.
`12· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· The design team --
`13· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· Yes or no, Scott.
`14· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· Not -- I did not directly.
`15· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`16· · · · Q.· ·Did your team consult with lawyers?
`17· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· You can answer yes
`18· ·or no.
`19· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· Yes.
`20· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`21· · · · Q.· ·And those lawyers were experts in IP,
`22· ·right?
`23· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· Objection.· Vague;
`24· ·calls for speculation.
`25· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· I would not know if they

`
`Page 38
`·1· ·were -- could be considered experts.· They were our
`·2· ·legal counsel.
`·3· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`·4· · · · Q.· ·Did you consult with them because they
`·5· ·know about intellectual property?
`·6· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· Objection; vague.
`·7· ·Also, misstates his testimony; calls for
`·8· ·speculation.
`·9· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· Yeah.· I would not be able
`10· ·to answer definitively.
`11· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`12· · · · Q.· ·Why did you consult with them?
`13· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· I am going to
`14· ·instruct you not to answer the question.
`15· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`16· · · · Q.· ·I am not asking what they told you or
`17· ·what you asked them.· I'm asking you generally, why
`18· ·did you hire lawyers?
`19· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· Objection; misstates
`20· ·the testimony.· Also, it is vague; lacks
`21· ·foundation.· And, to the extent that anything was a
`22· ·discussion with attorneys or at the request of or
`23· ·for the purpose of seeking legal advice, I am going
`24· ·to instruct you not to answer the question.
`25· · · · · · ·If there is any nonprivileged testimony
`
`Page 40
`
`·1· ·are Mike Loy and Mike Chevlin.
`·2· · · · Q.· ·Do you know what their expertise is?
`·3· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· Calls for
`·4· ·speculation.
`·5· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· They served as legal
`·6· ·counsel to Alphatec.
`·7· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`·8· · · · Q.· ·Yeah.· But do you know what their
`·9· ·professional expertise is?
`10· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· Calls for
`11· ·speculation.
`12· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· I can't answer any further
`13· ·than they were hired as legal counsel for Alphatec.
`14· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`15· · · · Q.· ·Do you know if they have expertise in
`16· ·intellectual property?
`17· · · · A.· ·Again, without being an expert myself, I
`18· ·don't know if they were experts in the area of IP.
`19· · · · Q.· ·Let's go back to Topic 2.· Let's turn to
`20· ·the exhibit that you brought with you, which is
`21· ·Alphatec's objections and responses.
`22· · · · · · ·Do you see in Alphatec's response to
`23· ·Topic 2, probably the part that you have
`24· ·highlighted there states that "Alphatec agrees to
`25· ·produce a witness as its corporate representative
`
`Page 39
`·1· ·you can give, you can answer.· But if you can't,
`·2· ·then I am going to instruct you on privilege.
`·3· · · · · · ·THE WITNESS:· I don't know why we hired
`·4· ·lawyers.
`·5· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`·6· · · · Q.· ·Did you hire real estate lawyers or
`·7· ·patent lawyers?
`·8· · · · · · ·MS. WICKRAMASEKERA:· Objection; calls for
`·9· ·speculation.· This is also outside the scope.
`10· · · · · · ·MS. DEVINE:· He is here personally too.
`11· ·BY MS. DEVINE:
`12· · · · Q.· ·Did you hire real estate lawyers or
`13· ·patent lawyers?
