`
` 15 Q Good morning, Mr. Harker.
`
` 16 A Good morning.
`
` 17 Q Is that how you pronounce your
`
` 18 name, Harker?
`
` 19 A Yes.
`
` 20 Q Give us your current address.
`
` 21 A I am at 72 Colonel Enoch Drive,
`
` 22 Carmel, New York 10512. I have been there
`
` 23 for the last eight years.
`
` 24 Q Have you ever had your
`
` 25 deposition taken before?

`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 A Never.
`
` 3 Q All right. Well, each of the
`
` 4 lawyers here will ask you a question; and,
`
` 5 if you would pause a second before you
`
` 6 answer to make sure I am finished with the
`
` 7 question, then I will show you the same
`
` 8 courtesy. That way we won't be stepping on
`
` 9 each other's responses.
`
` 10 A Okay.

`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
` 11 Q What did you do to prepare for
`
` 12 your deposition today?
`
` 13 A Really not much. I mean, I
`
` 14 work for a new company now. I did a lot of
`
` 15 work over the weekend out in the yard and
`
` 16 getting myself prepared for my Monday
`
` 17 morning executive meetings where I am now.
`
` 18 Q Do you understand that you are
`
` 19 being represented by Mr. Osborne?
`
` 20 A Yes, I am.
`
` 21 Q Did Mr. Osborne speak with you
`
` 22 before the deposition today?
`
` 23 A We corresponded about the
`
` 24 deposition. I told him I would be willing
`
` 25 to do it.

`
` 2 Q Did you visit with him over the
`
` 3 phone?
`
` 4 A Over the phone, yes, once when
`
` 5 we talked about the, you know, what might
`
` 6 transpire.
`
` 7 Q How long did that telephone
`
`Page 6
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 8 conversation last?
`
` 9 A I would say just a few minutes.
`
` 10 Q And you said you
`
` 11 communicated -- was that by E-Mail?
`
` 12 A There was an E-Mail.
`
` 13 Communication. He kept me current. I do a
`
` 14 lot of traveling, as to -- if we were
`
` 15 going to have a deposition, if we were not,
`
` 16 and, if so, what dates would be available.
`
` 17 Q I hand you what has been marked
`
` 18 as Exhibit 288.
`
` 19 (Exhibit No. 288, Subpoena for
`
` 20 Deposition, is marked by the reporter
`
` 21 for identification.)
`
` 22 Q Did you receive a copy of this
`
` 23 subpoena?
`
` 24 A I don't recall.
`
` 25 Q Were you -- you understand you

`
` 2 are appearing here today pursuant to a
`
` 3 subpoena?
`
`Page 7
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
` 4 A Absolutely.
`
` 5 Q This subpoena, just for the
`
` 6 record, was delivered to your lawyer who is
`
` 7 representing you.
`
` 8 Did he provide you with a copy
`
` 9 of this subpoena?
`
` 10 A He may have in an E-Mail.
`
` 11 Q Do you know?
`
` 12 A I don't recall.
`
` 13 Q Well, do you recall reviewing
`
` 14 the subpoena in response to the request for
`
` 15 documents?
`
` 16 A He asked me if I ever had any
`
` 17 documents.
`
` 18 Q That general?
`
` 19 A And I don't.
`
` 20 Q He just asked you if you had
`
` 21 any documents and you said no?
`
` 22 A He said, "Do you have any
`
` 23 documents" around when I left Symbol
`
` 24 Technologies?
`
` 25 You know, I did not keep my
`

`

` 8
`
`Page 8
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 files. I was -- as a matter of fact, I
`
` 3 was -- when I left Symbol, I was terminated
`
` 4 so --
`
` 5 Q Let me ask you to look at the
`
` 6 last page of Exhibit 288. Do you see the
`
` 7 heading says "Document Requests"?
`
` 8 A Yes.
`
` 9 Q Do you recall reading this
`
` 10 page?
`
` 11 A No.
`
` 12 Q Now, this particular page has
`
` 13 ten categories of document requests.
`
` 14 Do you see that?
`
` 15 A Yes.
`
` 16 Q Did your lawyer go through each
`
` 17 one of the categories with you and ask you
`
` 18 if you had documents responsive to each
`
` 19 category?
`
` 20 That's just a yes or no answer.
`
` 21 A That's a no.
`
` 22 Q Did he specifically ask you
`
` 23 whether or not you had any documents in
`
` 24 your possession that related to the
`
`Page 9
`
`

`
` 25 relationship that you had or Symbol had

`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 with Ameranth?
`
` 3 MR. OSBORNE: Objection to the
`
` 4 form.
`
` 5 Q You can answer the question.
`
` 6 He's just got to make an objection, but you
`
` 7 can answer it?
`
` 8 A Can you repeat your question,
`
` 9 please.
`
` 10 Q Sure. Looking at the first
`
` 11 category, did he specifically ask you for
`
` 12 documents that you might have in your
`
` 13 possession between you or Symbol and
`
` 14 Ameranth?
`
` 15 A Yes, he did once previous, and
`
` 16 I told him. I do not have any of my files
`
` 17 from Symbol Technologies.
`
` 18 Q And you said a few minutes ago
`
` 19 that that's because you left suddenly?
`
` 20 A Yes.
`
`Page 10
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
` 21 Q You were terminated; is that
`
` 22 correct?
`
` 23 A I was terminated.
`
` 24 Q Do you know the cause for the
`
` 25 termination.
`
` Elisa Dreier Reporting Corp. (212) 557-5558
` 950 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10022
`

` 10
`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 A Yes. Symbol Technologies was
`
` 3 under an SEC investigation. And,
`
` 4 basically, I was an executive; and the
`
` 5 entire executive team was asked to leave
`
` 6 the company while they had the
`
` 7 investigation. I was never deposed. I was
`
` 8 never charged.
`
` 9 It was something that was with
`
` 10 the senior-most -- I was just a director at
`
` 11 the time -- but the chief financial
`
` 12 officer, the president, and a number of
`
` 13 others were indicted.
`
` 14 Q And you were not indicted?
`
` 15 A Absolutely not.
`
` 16 Q Do you know whatever happened
`
` 17 to the charge or the investigation against
`
`Page 11
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 18 you personally?
`
` 19 A It wasn't an investigation
`
` 20 against me. There was no investigation.
`
` 21 It just was they brought in a -- I think,
`
` 22 an accounting team, and they came right in.
`
` 23 And they decided that all of the executives
`
` 24 at a certain level and above had to go.
`
` 25 Bill Newty came in to run the company from
`

` 950 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10022
`

` 11
`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 Cisco, and he brought his entire team in.
`
` 3 Q Did the SEC ever advise you
`
` 4 that any review of what you did was
`
` 5 terminated?
`
` 6 A No.
`
` 7 Q Now, you mentioned the CEO and
`
` 8 the CFO were indicted; is that correct?
`
` 9 A Yes, I believe so.
`
` 10 Q Were they ever convicted?
`
` 11 A I believe there were some
`
` 12 convictions.
`
` 13 Q Did any of them ever serve any
`
`Page 12
`
`

`
` 14 jail time?
`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 15 A I have no idea.
`
` 16 Q I'm sorry.
`
` 17 A That was -- I left the company
`
` 18 and I put a new chapter on in my life.
`
` 19 Q When did that happen?
`
` 20 A That happened in 2002.
`
` 21 Q When did you go to work for
`
` 22 Symbol?
`
` 23 A 1989.
`
` 24 Q What position did you have when
`
` 25 you started to work at Symbol?

` 950 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10022
`

` 12
`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 A I took a sales position. It
`
` 3 was a very small company. It was around
`
` 4 $87 million. I was a graduate. I
`
` 5 graduated college in 1986.
`
` 6 And I thought I saw where the
`
` 7 future was headed. And I took a big gamble
`
` 8 and left a job I was doing very well in to
`
` 9 join Symbol, and just took a typical sales
`
` 10 position.
`
`Page 13
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 11 Q And what was the big gamble
`
` 12 that you thought you wanted to take?
`
` 13 A The gamble was I thought that
`
` 14 the mobile wireless world was going to
`
` 15 really explode. I thought for sure that
`
` 16 there was great opportunity and potential
`
` 17 across many, many different marketplaces.
`
` 18 And that gamble paid off.
`
` 19 Q I'm sorry.
`
` 20 A That gamble paid off.
`
` 21 Q In what respect?
`
` 22 A Well, when I left 15 years
`
` 23 later, we were a $2 billion company from 87
`
` 24 million.
`
` 25 Q Did you have any stock interest
`
` Elisa Dreier Reporting Corp. (212) 557-5558
` 950 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10022
`

` 13
`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 in Symbol?
`
` 3 A Absolutely.
`
` 4 Q Have you sold all of that
`
` 5 stock?
`
` 6 A I have sold it all.
`
`Page 14
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
` 7 Q Now, where did you graduate
`
` 8 from college?
`
` 9 A I graduated from Cortland
`
` 10 State. It's a state university of
`
` 11 New York.
`
` 12 Q Who did you go to work for?
`
` 13 A I went to work for Tandy
`
` 14 Corporation, which is out of Texas. They
`
` 15 own Radio Shack. I was in their computer
`
` 16 products division selling their computers
`
` 17 to schools and businesses.
`
` 18 Q Were you in sales as well?
`
` 19 A Yes, I was.
`
` 20 Q Did you work closely with the
`
` 21 CEO and the CFO of Symbol?
`
` 22 A I worked very, very closely
`
` 23 with the CEO. His name was Jerry Schwartz.
`
` 24 He was a mentor of mine.
`
` 25 Q And he's the one who was
`
` Elisa Dreier Reporting Corp. (212) 557-5558
` 950 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10022
`

` 14
`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 indicted?
`
` 3 A No. The -- I'm sorry. Jerry,
`
`Page 15
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 4 when I joined the company, was CEO. He
`
` 5 then became chairman of the board, so he
`
` 6 was just chairman of the board and our
`
` 7 chief scientist. Tomo Razmilovich was the
`
` 8 CEO and president.
`
` 9 Q You are going to have to spell
`
` 10 that for the court reporter?
`
` 11 A I don't know how to spell
`
` 12 Razmilovich.
`
` 13 Q He's the one who was indicted?
`
` 14 A Yes, he was.
`
` 15 Q Did you work with him?
`
` 16 A I worked with him. I had
`
` 17 meetings with him. Yes.
`
` 18 Q Did you work with the CFO who
`
` 19 was indicted?
`
` 20 A I have had meetings with him.
`
` 21 Yes.
`
` 22 Q What is his name?
`
` 23 A Ken Jaegge, J-a-e-g-g-e, or
`
` 24 something like that.
`
` 25 Q Now, you said there were

` Elisa Dreier Reporting Corp. (212) 557-5558
` 950 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10022
`

`
`Page 16
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
` 15
`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 several people indicted. Were those the --
`
` 3 A Yes.
`
` 4 Q Who were the others?
`
` 5 A The others were the vice
`
` 6 president of sales.
`
` 7 Q What is his name?
`
` 8 A His name was Frank Borgese,
`
` 9 B-o-r-g-e-s-e.
`
` 10 Q I'm sorry. B-o-r-g-h --
`
` 11 A B-o-r-g-e-s-e.
`
` 12 Q And what -- was he convicted as
`
` 13 well?
`
` 14 A That I can't tell you. I
`
` 15 haven't followed it that closely.
`
` 16 Q He was your boss?
`
` 17 A No. He was not my boss.
`
` 18 Q What was the position that you
`
` 19 had at the time you were terminated?
`
` 20 A At the time, I was director of
`
` 21 hospitality and gaming, and I reported into
`
` 22 the director of business development.
`
` 23 Q And who was that?
`
`Page 17
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
` 24 A Tom Roselack.
`
` 25 Q Was he an officer as well?
`
` Elisa Dreier Reporting Corp. (212) 557-5558
` 950 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10022
`

` 16
`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 A No. He was not an officer.
`
` 3 Q Did he resign as well?
`
` 4 A No. He is still working.
`
` 5 Q Is there a reason that you
`
` 6 resigned being a subordinate to him and
`
` 7 they did not resign?
`
` 8 A Yes. When everything happened,
`
` 9 they decided that, when Bill Newty came in,
`
` 10 that they were going to go back to their
`
` 11 core. And the core was retail warehouse
`
` 12 distribution, transportation, and they got
`
` 13 rid of health care. They got rid of
`
` 14 hospital and gaming.
`
` 15 Q What was the nature of the SEC
`
` 16 investigation as best you can recall?
`
` 17 A I believe you call them "candy
`
` 18 deals." That's where you put product into
`
` 19 the marketplace, and you know they weren't,
`
` 20 I think, fudging the books. It was all a
`
`Page 18
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 21 surprise to me.
`
` 22 I kicked myself in the butt
`
` 23 because I didn't see it. I didn't know it
`
` 24 was happening. But they had some, I guess,
`
` 25 major, major resellers that they would
`
` Elisa Dreier Reporting Corp. (212) 557-5558
` 950 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10022
`

` 17
`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 supply product to.
`
` 3 And at the end of the year,
`
` 4 whatever they didn't sell, it could come
`
` 5 back. But then something called 9/11
`
` 6 happened, and the world changed from that
`
` 7 point forward. And I think it became
`
` 8 exposed.
`
` 9 Q What became exposed?
`
` 10 A Just the fact that they -- I
`
` 11 guess they are called "candy deals." I
`
` 12 don't know.
`
` 13 Q What was the sweet or the candy
`
` 14 deal that was going on in Symbol's case in
`
` 15 particular?
`
` 16 A I just think they were flooding
`
`Page 19
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
` 17 marketplace -- you know, not flooding the
`
` 18 marketplace -- they were putting a lot of
`
` 19 product into the reseller channel.
`
` 20 Q And these were wireless
`
` 21 hand-helds?
`
` 22 A No, just Symbol's business is
`
` 23 broken up into many different things.
`
` 24 Scanning devices is their number one core
`
` 25 competency -- scanning, imaging hand-helds,

`
` 2 wireless, OEM products. They did a number
`
` 3 of different things, so generally the
`
` 4 channel distribution was scanning.
`
` 5 Q So why did the company decide
`
` 6 to get out of the hospitality and gaming
`
` 7 business?
`
` 8 A Why? Because I think they
`
` 9 wanted to go right back to their core and
`
` 10 put all of their money into their core
`
` 11 competencies, their traditional core
`
` 12 competencies.
`
` 13 You had one management that
`

`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 14 believed in continued growth and new
`
` 15 markets, and then you had a new philosophy
`
` 16 coming, which was Bill Newty, who was from
`
` 17 Cisco who said just stick to the core. And
`
` 18 that's why the health care and the
`
` 19 hospitality teams were let go.
`
` 20 Q Was the hospitality team
`
` 21 profitable or the hospitality product line,
`
` 22 was it profitable?
`
` 23 A I thought we did a very good
`
` 24 job; but, unless you are a $100 million
`
` 25 business a year at the time, you weren't

` 2 going to be around.
`
` 3 Q Now, you said Bill Newty -- you
`
` 4 said he came from Cisco?
`
` 5 A Yes.
`
` 6 Q Was there a relationship
`
` 7 between Cisco and Symbol at that time?
`
` 8 A No, there was not.
`
` 9 Q So he left Cisco to join
`
`Page 21
`
`

`
` 10 Symbol?
`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 11 A Yes. As a matter of fact, we
`
` 12 were rivals in many ways. I think Bill was
`
` 13 a very young, sharp guy, one of the top
`
` 14 guys reporting into Bill [sic] Chambers.
`
` 15 Bill had grown up in Long Island, and I
`
` 16 thought he wanted to go back to his core
`
` 17 and his roots. Unfortunately, I don't
`
` 18 think it worked out for him; and he left
`
` 19 after two years to pursue another career.
`
` 20 Q Do you know where he is now?
`
` 21 A I have no idea.
`
` 22 Q And you said he reported to
`
` 23 Mr. Chambers?
`
` 24 A At his old position at Cisco,
`
` 25 yes, Bill Newty reported to John Chambers.

`
` 2 Q Are you being compensated for
`
` 3 your time today?
`
` 4 A No. I never asked.
`
` 5 Q Have you been asked to appear
`
` 6 at trial in this matter?
`
`Page 22
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 7 A I don't know. I think this is
`
` 8 the deposition. I don't know if you call
`
` 9 this a trial. But I have never been in a
`
` 10 deposition or a trial so --
`
` 11 Q Have you been asked if you
`
` 12 would volunteer to travel to Marshall,
`
` 13 Texas, to testify live at the trial?
`
` 14 A No, I have not.
`
` 15 Q Would you agree to do so?
`
` 16 A I would have to reserve
`
` 17 judgment on that until the time comes.
`
` 18 Q Well, the reason I say "agree"
`
` 19 is because no one can ask you to go down,
`
` 20 that you would have to volunteer to go down
`
` 21 there. That's why I asked you that.
`
` 22 A Okay.
`
` 23 Q Have you made any kind of
`
` 24 agreement to go down there?
`
` 25 A No, I have not. I handle in my

`
`

`

` 3 I like to stick to the East Coast unless I
`
` 4 am on vacation. Texas is not on my
`
` 5 vacation list.
`
` 6 Q Let me show you what has been
`
` 7 previously marked as Exhibit 29.
`
` 8 (Previously Marked Exhibit No.
`
` 9 29, Symbol Product Requirement
`
` 10 Document is introduced into the
`
` 11 proceedings.)
`
` 12 Q Have you previously seen this
`
` 13 Symbol product requirement document?
`
` 14 A I have read it before.
`
` 15 Q Were you involved in its
`
` 16 preparation or review prior to lease?
`
` 17 A No. The business development
`
` 18 team worked with the product development
`
` 19 teams, just as far as maybe what type of
`
` 20 requirements needed to be in the devices.
`
` 21 But I did not work with Bob on putting this
`
` 22 document together.
`
` 23 Q Who is Bob?
`
` 24 A I think it says Bob Schreib,
`
` 25 the author.

`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 Q What position does Mr. Schreib
`
` 3 have?
`
` 4 A I think he was just product
`
` 5 manager, and I think he was probably just
`
` 6 for a year on that product. But he was the
`
` 7 product manager. Every product at Symbol
`
` 8 Technologies had a product manager.
`
` 9 Q He was the designated product
`
` 10 manager for this product?
`
` 11 A Yes, he was.
`
` 12 Q How about the other two
`
` 13 individuals who are mentioned there,
`
` 14 Mr. Nanbuttari and Mr. Fuccillo?
`
` 15 A Yes. I don't know. I think
`
` 16 those are just probably very technical
`
` 17 engineering people, who, Bob, being a
`
` 18 product manager -- and these are probably
`
` 19 from the engineering teams. I have never
`
` 20 heard their names or seen their names
`
` 21 before. But that's what I am assuming.
`
` 22 Q Now, this document has a date
`
` 23 on the lower right-hand portion that says
`
`Page 25
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
`
` 24 December 24, 1998. Would that be the date
`
` 25 that that product would have -- this

` 950 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10022
`

` 23
`
` 1 John V. Harker
`
` 2 document would have been released?
`
` 3 A No.
`
` 4 Q What does that date mean in the
`
` 5 Symbol convention?
`
` 6 A That means if -- I think, if
`
` 7 you see the top there called "Stealth" on
`
` 8 the top of that document, that means this
`
` 9 is still a product that we are talking
`
` 10 about. But it is "Stealth" is its
`
` 11 developmental name.
`
` 12 Q What does MCS mean before the
`
` 13 date?
`
` 14 A Where would that be?
`
` 15 Q MCS, those initials right
`
` 16 before December 24, 1998.
`
` 17 A I have no idea.
`
` 18 Q Would you have reviewed this
`
` 19 document on or about this time?
`
`Page 26
`
`

`
`Harker - Depo 0503amer
` 20 A If it was presented to me,
`
` 21 "John, would you review it," I have seen
`
` 22 this document before. I have seen it when
`
` 23 it came out in its product form. But I
`
` 24 can't recall.
`
` 25 Q You saw it at some point. You
