` EXAMINATION
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. Good morning, Mr. Jarosz.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. Good morning.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Can you state your name for the record?
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. John C. Jarosz.

`
`Page 13
`
`
` A. A. Yes, only in different matters.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Of course.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. Many different matters.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Yes. I just wanted to go over the
`
` Q. Q.
`ground rules.
`
` A. A. (Nods head).
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. I represent the InnoPharma Petitioners
`
` Q. Q.
`and I'll be asking questions today, and I'll ask

`object, but unless she instructs you not to answer,
`I expect you to answer.
` Is that okay?
`
` A. A. Yes.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. If you don't understand a question I'm
`
` Q. Q.
`asking, just let me know. If you need a break, just
`let me know, but I ask that you answer any pending
`question before you do that.
` Is that okay?
`
` A. A. Yes.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Okay. Is there any reason why you
`
` Q. Q.
`can't testify truthfully today?
`
` A. A. No.

`
` MR. ABE: Okay. Counsel, will you
`stipulate that the witness is here for
`cross-examination for both IPR2015-00902 and 903?
` MS. LEBEIS: Yes.
` MR. ABE: Okay. And will counsel
`also stipulate that my questions will be directed to
`both IPR proceedings unless I specify otherwise?
` MS. LEBEIS: Yes.
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. Okay. Mr. Jarosz, have you ever been
`
` Q. Q.
`deposed in the context of an inter partes review
`proceeding?
`
` A. A. Yes.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. How many times?
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. I'd have to look at my CV, but my best
`
` A. A.
`memory right now is that it's been three times. I
`might be wrong, however.
`
` Q. Q. And your CV, I believe, is attached as
`
` Q. Q.
`one of the exhibits or it is attached to your
`declaration; is that right?
`
` A. A. I have attached the version of my CV
`
` A. A.
`that was current as of the time I submitted my
`
`Page 15
`
`report or declaration in this matter.
`
` Q. Q. Do you recall when those three -- let
`
` Q. Q.
`me restate it.
` Were those three depositions for the
`inter partes review -- would that have happened
`after you submitted your declaration in this case?
`
` A. A. No, I don't think any have been
`
` A. A.
`since --
`
` Q. Q. Okay.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. -- the declaration in this matter.
`
` A. A.
`Though I might be wrong. I think I'm correct.
`
` Q. Q. Were any of those IPR proceedings in
`
` Q. Q.
`relation to patents that covered pharmaceutical
`subject matter?
`
` A. A. I'd have to go back and check. I don't
`
` A. A.
`recall sitting here right now.
`
` Q. Q. Okay. Maybe if I hand you your
`
` Q. Q.
`declaration, that might help. So I'm -- so I'm
`handing you what's been marked Senju Exhibit 2130 in
`the 902 IPR.
` Mr. Jarosz, is this your declaration?
`
` A. A. (Reviewing document).

`
` Well, I'm not exactly sure. I believe
`so, but I see a few redactions in this, and I am not
`sure that what I submitted had redactions. So I'm
`not positive --
`
` Q. Q. Yeah, this is --
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. -- that this is what I submitted.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Right. There's another version that is
`
` Q. Q.
`the board's only -- eyes only, but for today's
`proceeding I'd like to use the board version that's
`redacted.
` Is that okay?
`
` A. A. I think so. Although I'm a little bit
`
` A. A.
`nervous since it doesn't look like exactly the
`document that I submitted.
`
` Q. Q. That's fair.
`
` Q. Q.
` I'll just represent to you that this is
`what was filed by the patent owners in the case as
`protective order material with the redactions as you
`noted.
` Is that okay?
`
` A. A. Yes.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Okay. So why don't you turn to the CV,
`
` Q. Q.
`
`Page 17
`
`which is attached to your declaration as Appendix 1.
`On page 69, it lists your patent cases.
` Do you see that?
`
` A. A. Well, it's the start of the list of my
`
` A. A.
`patent cases.
`
` Q. Q. And the second case listed there,
`
` Q. Q.
`that's an IPR proceeding?
`
` A. A. If that's a question, the answer is
`
` A. A.
`yes.
`
` Q. Q. Yeah. And you represented the Polaris
`
` Q. Q.
`Industries, Inc. company?
`
` A. A. Yes.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Is that right?
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. Our firm did, yes.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Okay. And that case didn't involve a
`
` Q. Q.
`pharmaceutical product, did it?
`
` A. A. No.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. And you represented petitioner --
`
` Q. Q.
`sorry.
` You were representing the patent owner
`in that case; is that right?

`
`
`
`Confidential - Subject to The Protective Order
`John C. Jarosz - March 3, 2016
`
`Page 18
`
`of the question.
` THE WITNESS: Our firm represented
`polar -- Polaris Industries, and I believe they
`owned the patents.
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. Okay. So the testimony you were
`
` Q. Q.
`offering in that case was that there was commercial
`success with respect to the patents-in-suit in that
`case; is that right?
`
` A. A. I'm not sure what I can say about that
`
` A. A.
`matter. I think it was covered by protective order.
`So I hesitate a little bit in answering your
`question, not wanting to violate a protective order.
`
` Q. Q. That's fine. Do you know if a decision
`
` Q. Q.
`has been rendered in that case?
`
` A. A. I believe so.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Do you know what the decision is?
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. I don't know all the particulars of the
`
` A. A.
`decision, but I believe that at least some of the
`petitioner's challenge was upheld by the PTAB, as I
`recall.
`
` Q. Q. So would that mean that the
`
` Q. Q.
`
`Page 19
`
`petitioner's -- well, let me restart.
` The petitioner was challenging that the
`patents in that case were invalid; right? Or some
`of the claims were invalid; is that right?
` MS. LEBEIS: Objection. No
`foundation.
` THE WITNESS: Among other things,
`they were challenging the validity of the patent or
`patents, as I recall.
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. Okay. And the board affirmed that some
`
` Q. Q.
`of those claims were invalid --
` MS. LEBEIS: Same objection.
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. -- is that right?
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. If that's a question, I believe that's
`
` A. A.
`right. I only looked at the final decision fairly
`quickly, but I believe that's correct.
`
` Q. Q. Okay. In rendering that decision, did
`
` Q. Q.
`the board reject any of the statements or opinions
`you were offering in that case?
` MS. LEBEIS: Objection. No

`was keyed off belief or understanding as to whether
`the patent or patents are used, and I think anything
`with regard to commercial success, I think it might
`have said, was dicta. I don't think that it was
`dispositive because they had made a determination
`before getting to those, the commercial success
`issues, I believe.
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. Then you had two other IPR cases in
`
` Q. Q.
`which you served as an expert; is that right?
`
` A. A. Well, no, I've had more than two
`
` A. A.
`others. My memory was that three went to
`deposition, but when I look further, I don't see
`mention of depositions besides the one we just
`talked about.
`
` Q. Q. Okay.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. So I have submitted reports in IPR
`
` A. A.
`matters but not been deposed.
`
`Page 21
`
`
` Q. Q. Okay. And those wouldn't be on this
`
` Q. Q.
`list because you haven't been deposed yet; is that
`right?
`
` A. A. Or given testimony; that's right.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Okay.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. Meaning live testimony.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Do you recall the case name for those?
`
` Q. Q.
` Or just the party you represent.
`That's fine, too.
` MS. LEBEIS: Objection to the form
`of the question.
` THE WITNESS: Sitting here right
`now, I clearly remember that one was in the
`pharmaceutical industry, but I don't, frankly,
`remember the names of the parties. I believe the
`one we represented succeeded at the -- at the PTAB
`final decision level, but I'm just not remembering
`the name of the parties. I remember the name of the
`drug, but not the parties.
` The other that is coming to mind
`is also in the pharma area, and I'm remembering that
`one less well.

`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. The first one you remember the drug
`
` Q. Q.
`name. Can you tell me what the drug name you
`remember is?
`
` A. A. Yes, and I assume I'm not violating a
`
` A. A.
`protective order by saying I was involved in that.
`So -- actually, I'm going to turn to counsel to make
`absolutely sure.
` MS. LEBEIS: If you think that
`there was a protective order in place, then you
`should just -- you shouldn't answer.
` THE WITNESS: There was a
`protective order. So I'm not positive I'm allowed
`to talk about it, but if I learn the name, I'd be
`happy to tell you.
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. Well, usually the name of the drug is
`
` Q. Q.
`not under protective order, but if you're
`uncomfortable, that's fine.
`
` A. A. Well, I think the name of the drug may
`
` A. A.
`be public, but I don't know that our involvement is
`public.

`
` A. A. As someone involved in the matter.
`
` A. A.

`
` Q. Q. That's interesting. Okay.
`
` Q. Q.

`8 your declaration.
`9
`
` A. A. Yes.
`
` A. A.
`10
`
` Q. Q. Yeah. And there you describe that you
`
` Q. Q.
`11 have a JD from the University of Wisconsin.
`12 Do you see that?
`13
`
` A. A. Yes.
`
` A. A.
`14
`
` Q. Q. You're a licensed attorney; is that
`
` Q. Q.
`15 right?
`16
`
` A. A. I'm a member of the state bar of
`
` A. A.
`17 Wisconsin. If you call that a licensed attorney,
`18 the answer is yes.
`19
`
` Q. Q. Okay. Have you ever practiced law?
`
` Q. Q.
`20
`
` A. A. No. I'm inactive -- I'm on inactive
`
` A. A.
`21 status at the state bar of Wisconsin.

`it -- if it hasn't always been, it was within the
`first year of me being admitted to the bar.
`
` Q. Q. Now, the second sentence of paragraph 9
`
` Q. Q.
`you say that you've been involved in "more than 350
`such engagements spanning a broad range of
`industries and technologies, including a variety of
`covering pharmaceutical products."
` Do you see that?
`
` A. A. Yes, I see a typo of the word.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Yes. Right.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. The word "of" and "variety" should be
`
` A. A.
`transposed.
`
` Q. Q. Yes. I noticed that, too.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. "Of variety." No. The word "of"
`
` A. A.
`should be eliminated.
`
` Q. Q. Right.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. Sorry about that.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. No problem. Can you expand a little
`
` Q. Q.
`bit what you're referring to by "pharmaceutical
`products" there?
`
`Page 25
`
` MS. LEBEIS: Objection to the form
`of the question.
` THE WITNESS: I'm not really sure
`what you're asking. Are you asking me to define
`"pharmaceutical products"?
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. Well, I'm interested in how much
`
` Q. Q.
`experience you have with pharmaceutical products in
`connection to these engagements you're referencing
`here.
`
` A. A. Again, I'm not -- I'm not fully
`
` A. A.
`appreciating your question.
` Many of my engagements have been in
`pharmaceutical product settings. You could look at
`my CV to get a sense of those over time. Perhaps 25
`or 30 percent of my work has been in pharmaceutical
`settings, but of course it differs from time to
`time.
`
` Q. Q. 25 percent of the total amount of times
`
` Q. Q.
`you've been engaged as an expert witness; is that
`what you're saying?
`
` A. A. That our firm has been engaged in

`
`matters in which I have been involved.
`
` Q. Q. How many total engagements are you
`
` Q. Q.
`talking about?
`
` A. A. I'm not exactly sure I'm appreciating
`
` A. A.
`your question.
` More than 350 --
`
` Q. Q. And --
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. -- is the total engagements. And if
`
` A. A.
`you take 25 or 30 percent of that, that would give
`you a rough estimate of the pharmaceutical
`engagements in which I've been involved.
`
` Q. Q. Thank you.
`
` Q. Q.
` How many of those were covering
`ophthalmic products?
` MS. LEBEIS: Objection. No
`foundation.
` THE WITNESS: Of course, this
`engagement and the ones associated with it cover
`ophthalmic therapies. I have a recollection of
`having been involved in a set of cases having to do
`with glaucoma treatment. I have been involved in
`cases having to do with eyeglasses and vision
`
`Page 27
`
`correction. I'm not sure if you're counting that as
`ophthalmic or not.
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. In this context, I would not.
`
` Q. Q.
` The glaucoma treatment was an eye drop
`product; is that right?
`
` A. A. The glaucoma treatment?
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Yes.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. I'd have to go back and refresh my
`
` A. A.
`memory. I think that's right, but I'm not
`absolutely certain that's right.
` For now I'm willing to say I think
`that's right.
`
` Q. Q. Okay. That's fair.
`
` Q. Q.
` Have you ever worked on an engagement
`that involved a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug,
`or an NSAID?
`
` A. A. Yes, I have been involved in matters
`
` A. A.
`involving NSAIDs.
`
` Q. Q. Do you recall how many?
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. Less than half a dozen, but I can't be
`
` A. A.
`any more specific than that.

`
` A. A.
`don't have a perfect memory. I've been involved in
`many cases over the years.
`
` Q. Q. Now, you mentioned about of the 350
`
` Q. Q.
`engagements, 25 percent were for pharmaceutical
`matters; is that -- is that right?
`
` A. A. I don't think that's quite right.
`
` A. A.
` I gave you an estimate --
`
` Q. Q. Estimate.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. -- as to how many might have been
`
` A. A.
`pharmaceutical related, and I may have said 25 to 30
`percent. It could be high or it could be low on
`that estimate, but I gave you a rough estimate.
`
` Q. Q. Yeah. So approximately 25 percent?
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. Approximately, yes.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Okay. And were all those cases in
`
` Q. Q.
`which you provided testimony about commercial
`success?
`
` A. A. No.
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. What other matters did you provide
`
` Q. Q.
`
`Page 29
`
`testimony?
` MS. LEBEIS: Objection to the form
`of the question. Vague and ambiguous.
` THE WITNESS: The causes of action
`that have been underlying some of those suits
`include claims for damages, include breach of
`contract and best-effort evaluations, and include
`claims for injunctive relief. There could be other
`things, but those categories come to mind right now.
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. Do you remember how many were related
`
` Q. Q.
`to commercial success of that 25 percent?
`
` A. A. I don't remember exactly how many.
`
` A. A.
`There have been scores of cases in which I've been
`involved having to do with commercial success issues
`in a pharmaceutical setting.
`
` Q. Q. In each of those cases where you
`
` Q. Q.
`provided opinions for commercial success with
`relation to a pharmaceutical setting, your testimony
`was on behalf of the patent owner --
` MS. LEBEIS: Object.

`
`Page 30
`
`
` Q. Q. -- would that be right?
`
` Q. Q.
` MS. LEBEIS: Objection. Vague and
`ambiguous. No foundation.
` THE WITNESS: I don't know if
`that's true. It certainly is true that many of the
`engagements in which I've been involved we have done
`analysis in our role as engaged by a patent owner or
`a manufacturer, but I don't know that that's all of
`the engagements.
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. Well, in each of those cases, again for
`
` Q. Q.
`the cases when you provided opinions on commercial
`success for a pharmaceutical case, was your opinion
`supporting the conclusion that the claims were
`non-obvious?
` MS. LEBEIS: Objection. Calls for
`a legal conclusion. Vague and ambiguous.
` THE WITNESS: I'm not -- I'm not
`really sure what you're asking.
` I don't think it would be fair to
`say that I've provided opinions supporting a
`conclusion. I do an analysis of commercial success.
`
`Page 31
`
`So with that, perhaps you could ask your question
`just a little bit differently?
`BY MR. ABE:
`
` Q. Q. Yes. Yes.
`
` Q. Q.
` My question was whether you provided
`opinions -- well, let me ask it a different way
`then.
` Have you ever provided opinions for
`commercial success in a pharmaceutical case when
`you -- your opinion was that there was no commercial
`success?
` MS. LEBEIS: Same objections.
` THE WITNESS: I think I have
`provided that opinion, but not in written or
`testimony form. I think I've had that opinion with
`counsel or with a company that I've had discussions
`with, but I don't think I've submitted a report that
`came to that conclusion, to the best of my memory.

`
` Q. Q.
`moment.
` Well, let me just ask you generally.
` You have a specialty in applied
`microeconomics and industry or organization; is that
`right?
`
` A. A. Did you say macroeconomics? Because I
`
` A. A.
`don't have --
`
` Q. Q. I said micro.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. Okay. As my CV says --
`
` A. A.
`
` Q. Q. Yes, CV.
`
` Q. Q.
`
` A. A. -- I specialized in applied
`
` A. A.
`microeconomics and industrial organization.
`
` Q. Q. Yeah. What does that mean, applied
`
` Q. Q.
`microeconomics and industrial organization, that's
`written on your CV?
`
` A. A. Well, those are two different, though
`
` A. A.
`often related, disciplines. The applied
`microeconomics involves taking tools that examine
`firm and customer behavior and uses those tools in
`real-world settings, whether in litigation or
`outside of litigation.
`
`Page 33
`
` Industrial organization is the study of
`how firms interact with one another and interact
`with consumers.
`
` Q. Q. Since I have you back on the -- on your
`
` Q. Q.
`CV, now, you've p
