`
`And do you live in the City of Chicago?

`Yes.
`A.
`Who do you currently for?
`Q.
`Intralinks.
`A.
`How long have you been at Intralinks?
`Q.
`Almost two years.
`A.

`ESpeed.
`A.
`And how long did you work at eSpeed?
`Q.
`About two years and four months.
`A.
`What was your position at eSpeed?
`Q.
`I was a sales account executive.
`A.
`Did you have a title at eSpeed?
`Q.
`Relationship manager was the title.
`A.
`Can you tell us what your responsibilities
`Okay.
`Q.
`were as a relationship manager at eSpeed?
`Sure.
`I was to visit clients on a regular basis,
`A.
`make sure that they had access to our technology, make
`sure that they were trading on our technology; just
`ensure that they were happy with the system and take
`care of any complaints that they had.
`And when you say regular basis, what did you
`Q.
`mean?
`I mean a frequent basis.
`I probably saw every
`A.
`client at a minimum once every two weeks, if not every

`week.
`Were you responsible for any particular products
`Q.
`when you were a relationship manager at eSpeed?
`Yes.
`A.
`What products were those?
`Q.
`The foreign exchange, the futures, the cash bond;
`A.
`that was it.
`With respect to the futures that you just
`Q.
`mentioned, how long during your time at eSpeed were you
`responsible for that product?
`Several months.
`A.
`Can you tell the jury when that was?
`Q.
`It was from the time that we started to think
`A.
`about the futures product and rolling it out through the
`time that I transitioned into the FX products.
`Do you know when you transitioned into FX?
`Q.
`Probably in November of '04.
`A.
`Are you familiar with Trading Technologies?
`Q.
`Yes.
`A.
`And how are you familiar with Trading
`Q.
`Technologies?
`Trading Technologies was the futures platform
`A.
`that most of the eSpeed clients had on their desktop.
`So your eSpeed customers had TT on their desktop?
`Q.
`Yes.

`
`they wouldn't have to go back to the pre-set buttons and
`click up.
`They wanted to be able to enter two different
`quantities easily at that price or one next to the price
`anyway, and then the menu that pops down -- so when you
`-- you could click to get a menu to pop down to change
`some different settings in the system, and they wanted
`to change it in the instrument settings, which was on
`the actual eSpeed platform or other settings in the
`actual window as I recall, the futures window.
`When you say right click execution, does that
`Q.
`mean entry of an order?
`Yes.
`A.
`In how many clicks?
`Q.
`The last version that I recall working with, it
`A.
`was the one click, but it had to be the full click.
`It
`wouldn't be just down.
`You had to release the click in
`order to have it be entered.
`Can you -- can you turn in your binder to
`Q.
`Plaintiff's Deposition Exhibit 215 and tell me if you
`recognize that?
`My fault.
`Wrong one, I'm sorry.
`A.
`MR. PERKINS:
`Your Honor, just preserving
`the objections.
`THE COURT:
`THE WITNESS:
`
`You do.
`I recognize that.

`
`BY MR. CARDEN:
`How do you recognize it?
`Okay.
`Q.
`This is an e-mail from myself again to Bill Gill,
`A.
`the technology team, my manager, and James Stedman.
`And who is in the first line there, who is S&L?
`Q.
`S&L is one of my clients, Singer and Levinson.
`A.
`Do you know if they had TT's product?
`Q.
`Yes.
`A.
`And do you know how you knew that TT had the
`Q.
`capability available that's being referred to below?
`Because the trader that I was talking to told me
`A.
`that that capability was available.
`Was that an unusual comment to you?
`Q.
`No.
`A.
`Why not?
`Q.
`That was really common when I visited my clients
`A.
`that they would ask for whatever TT had.
`That's the
`system they're used to.
`The traders are creatures of
`habit and want to use something that's familiar to them.
`And if you could turn to Plaintiff's Trial
`Q.
`Exhibit 292 in your binder, do you recognize this?
`Yes.
`A.
`And how do you recognize this document?
`Q.
`I was copied on the e-mail from Stephanie.
`A.
`And in this document, it refers to single click

`
`Do you see that?
`
`execution in system settings.
`Yes.
`A.
`Do you know what that means?
`Q.
`Yes.
`A.
`And what is that?
`Q.
`That would be just a one click to enter orders.
`A.
`So instead of a double click, for example, I think she
`is referring to a single click instead of a double click
`here.
`Later in that e-mail it says there isn't an
`Q.
`What is
`option to uncheck cash/ladder second look.
`that?
`Oh, so the second look was that if the trader
`A.
`wanted to enter an order and try to do so, an extra
`window would pop up saying this is to confirm you are
`about to put this quantity into the marketplace at this
`price, is this okay, yes or no.
`And what's the cash referred to there?
`Q.
`The cash ladder?
`A.
`Yes.
`Q.
`So the cash ladder would be the same as that
`A.
`Futures View that we first looked at, except the cash
`prices would be in the middle for the cash bonds product
`that eSpeed had.
`And what product exactly is that, what exchange
