`EXAMINATION
`BY MS. SHIH:
` Q. Good afternoon.
` A. Good afternoon.
` Q. As I already introduced myself, my
`name is Evangeline Shih and I'm here with
`Frank Calvosa. We represent the patent
`owner, Jazz Pharmaceuticals, and I have some
`questions for you today. It should be very
`short, relatively painless, I would hope.
`Some questions about you, your work, Par and
`your declaration.
` I see you have a document in front
`of you. Is that one of the declarations that
`was submitted with the petitions?
` A. Yes, it is.
` Q. If I could have you tell me which
`one it is so that we are sort of operating on

`the same page.
` A. The case number?
` Q. Yes. That would be great.
` A. It is IPR2015-00554.
` Q. 00554. Actually, I think we have
`the case -- the declaration from case IPR
`number 2015-00546. So I think we are going
`to hand those out just so that we are all
`looking at the same document. I think that
`will be helpful.
` My understanding is that the
`declaration that you submitted in each of the
`six petitions is the same declaration; is
`that your understanding as well?
` A. That is my understanding.
` Q. You don't have any markups on your
`copy, do you, notes or markups on your copy?
` A. No. But I do have one correction
`to make.
` Q. Sure. Do you want to go ahead and
`give that to me right now?
` A. Sure. So on paragraph 2 in the
`middle where it lists the two intermediate
`holding companies, the correct title is Sky
`Growth Intermediate Holdings II Corporation.

` Q. Okay.
` A. And Sky Growth Intermediate
`Holdings I Corporation.
` Q. And that is the only correction
`that you have to your declaration?
` A. That's right.
` Q. Those are the only two corrections?

` Q. Thank you. And I guess I should
`back up a little. If I could have you state
`your full name for the record.
` A. My name is Barry Gilman.

`address?
` A.
` Q. Who are you employed by?
` A. I am employed on behalf of Par

` MR. BURGY: Objection. Form.

` Q. So I was wondering -- I was sort of
`wondering what your definition of
`"employment" might be?
` MR. BURGY: Objection. Form.
` MR. VARUGHESE: Objection. Outside

` A. I've told you who I worked for.
`That's my definition of "employment."
`BY MS. SHIH:
` Q. But in addition to working for Par
`Pharmaceutical, Inc., I think that you've
`also answered that you work for parent
`company Par Pharmaceutical Companies, Inc.,
`the Sky Growth Companies as well as the Par
`Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc.?

` MR. BURGY: Objection. Form.
` A. I think you've maybe misinterpreted
`or misconstrued what I answered as far as my
`role as secretary, which is an officer
`position. That's not an employment position.
`BY MS. SHIH:
` Q. Okay.
` And as an -- so as an officer of
`those companies, it's your view that you are
`not employed by those companies?
` MR. BURGY: Objection. Form.
`BY MS. SHIH:
` Q. Is that a fair understanding of
`what you're trying to tell me?
` MR. BURGY: Same objection.
` A. I guess -- of which companies now,
`because we have talked about them all?
`BY MS. SHIH:
` Q. Sure. Why don't we do this. It
`might make it easier if we talk about them
`separately.
` With regard to Par Pharmaceutical
`Companies, Inc., it is your testimony that

` A. I guess -- I am not an employment
`lawyer so I can't tell you exactly the
`definition or what definition you are looking
`for.
`BY MS. SHIH:
` Q. Okay. Why don't I ask it this way:
`Par Pharmaceutical Companies, Inc., do you
`have a written employment agreement with Par
`Pharmaceutical Companies, Inc.?
` A. No, I don't.
` Q. Do you have any sort of -- as an
`officer of Par Pharmaceutical Companies,
`Inc., do you have a written agreement with
`them?
` MR. BURGY: Objection. Form.
` A. You mean a written employment
`agreement?
`BY MS. SHIH:

`-- acting as an officer of Par Pharmaceutical
`Companies, Inc.

` MR. BURGY: Objection. Outside the

` Q. Are you refusing to answer the
`question?
` MR. VARUGHESE: Objection. Form.
` A. I don't think it's relevant to my

`BY MS. SHIH:
` Q. Sure. I understand that. But does
`that mean you are not answering the question
`for me?

` Let me ask you this:
` Does Par Pharmaceutical Companies,
`Inc., provide you a paycheck?
` MR. VARUGHESE: Objection. Form.
` A. I still think that's beyond the
`scope of what I have attested to.
`BY MS. SHIH:
` Q. So in other words, are you going to
`answer the question?
` A. No.
` Q. Sky Growth Intermediate Holdings II
`Corporation, do you receive a paycheck from
`that company?
` MR. BURGY: Counsel, this is
` starting to get off his declaration. So
` unless you can show where you're going
` with this, I may have to instruct him
` not to answer to preserve the PTAB's
` directive that this deposition be
` limited to the factual issues raised in
` his declaration as articulated in paper
` tabs.
` MS. SHIH: I disagree with you. So
` I am going to continue to ask questions,

`
` to have a standing objection, that's
` fine.
` Why don't we try to make it a
` little bit more efficient, and I can ask
` you with regard to the companies -- with
` regard to all of the companies' parent
` companies that are listed in paragraph
` 2, I think you have already responded
` with respect to Par Pharmaceutical
` Companies. Why don't we jump to Par
` Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc., and I
` will ask you there, do you receive a
` paycheck from that particular company?
` MR. BURGY: Same objections as
` before.
` A. I think I told you who I work for.
` MS. SHIH: And I think -- Aziz,
` just to be clear, I think the reason why
` it's relevant is because, at the end of
` the day, there are portions of the
` declaration where Mr. Gilman is
` explaining whether certain persons
` involved in the petitions are employed
` by a particular Par entity or not
` employed by a Par entity. So I am

` trying to understand better the
` parameters of employment and also
` understanding the -- sort of
` understanding the parameters of what it
` means to be the secretary for Par, Inc.,
` and an officer of one of these
` companies.
` So I think that -- in order to
` understand that better, I need to
` understand issues with regard to
` compensation and what not. For me,
` that's my understanding as far as what
` may determine employment or not
` determine employment.
` MR. BURGY: And I appreciate that,
` and I want to be as reasonable as
` possible here. If you want to ask him
` about the individuals he has listed in
` his declaration and their employment
` status, you are free to do so. I am not
` going to instruct him not answer on
` those, as long as it's within the
` declaration; but as of this time, I
` don't see that you have asked him about
` those individuals. You have asked him

`
` about his employment with the Par
` entities, and I have allowed him to
` answer those questions; but it feels
` like you are getting off what Mr. Gilman
` has set out in his declaration.
` So with that caveat, you are more

` declaration. So if you want to ask him
` about individuals and their employment
` status as it relates to his declaration,
` you are more than allowed to do that.
` MS. SHIH: Sure. I am just trying
` to understand because Mr. Gilman has put
` in a declaration. I am trying to
` understand what his position is and sort
` of his responsibilities and his role in
` the company or companies because he
` is -- as I understand it, is speaking on
` behalf of the companies.
` MR. BURGY: And I believe he has
` answered those questions in terms of his
` roles and responsibilities as deputy
` general counsel and secretary, so you

` MS. SHIH: I think we disagree,

`BY MS. SHIH:
` Q. And just so that the record is
`clear, Par Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc., you
`are not going to answer for me whether you
`receive a paycheck from that company?
` A. I have said I am not employed by
`Par Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc.
` Q. And I understand that, but that's a
`different question.
` Do you receive a paycheck from
`them?
` A. That's correct.
` Q. Are you compensated for your role
`as secretary for Par Pharmaceutical Holdings
`Inc. by that company?
` A. No, I am not.
` Q. Are you compensated at all in your
`role as secretary of Par Pharmaceutical
`Holdings, Inc.?
` A. I am not compensated as secretary.
` Q. And who -- what company pays your
`compensation?

`corporate services, including employment
`services, and that's the entity that I am
`employed by.
`BY MS. SHIH:

`compensation, who is issuing your paycheck?

` A. It's direct deposit, and I am not

`BY MS. SHIH:
` Q. I think just to clear up the
`record, you say you don't receive any
`compensation as secretary for Par
`Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc.
` Do you receive compensation as
`secretary for Par Pharmaceutical, Inc.?
` A. I don't receive separate
`compensation for my role as secretary.
