`the firm, and I help in management of the firm.
`
` Q. Did these engagements of the firm include
`
`litigation consulting?
`
` A. Sometimes.
`
` Q. What percentage of your work involves
`
`litigation consulting?
`
` A. Are you putting that question to me
`
`personally or as a representative of Analysis Group?
`
` Q. I'll put it to you personally.
`
` A. It changes of course from time to time.
`
`But over the last 20 years, something on the order
`
`of 85 percent of my work has been in the context of
`
`pending litigation, likely litigation, arbitration
`
`or mediation.
`
` Q. What is the other 15 percent?
`
` A. It's outside the context of a dispute.
`
` Q. Mr. Jarosz, I introduced myself to you
`
`off the record, but my name is Chiemi Suzuki, and
`
`I'm with the law firm of Crowell & Moring. We

`
`BY MS. SUZUKI:
`
` Q. Can you please state your name for the
`
`record?
`
` A. John C. Jarosz.
`
` Q. And what is your address?
`
` A. My work address is Analysis Group, 800
`
`17th Street, Northwest, Washington, D.C., 20006. My

`

`
`Number 9 -- excuse me, 8,927,606; and IPR
`
`2015-001105 regarding U.S. Patent Number 8,871,813.
`
`If I refer to those IPR proceedings today as these
`
`IPRs or this IPR, will you understand what I mean?
`
` A. I think so, yes.
`
` Q. I'm going to ask you a number of
`
`questions today and you're to answer the questions
`
`to the best of your ability. Do you understand
`
`that?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. Is there any reason that you cannot
`
`testify truthfully today?
`
` A. No.
`
` Q. It's important that you understand each
`
`question that I ask. If for any reason you do not
`
`understand the question, please tell me and I will
`
`rephrase the question into one you can understand.
`
`Will you tell me if you do not understand the
`
`question that I ask?
`
` A. I'll tell you if I don't think I
`
`understand your question, but in answering any

`
`question of yours, I'm not necessarily acknowledging
`
`that my understanding of your question is the same
`
`as your understanding of your question. If I think
`
`I understand it, I will answer it. If I think I
`
`need clarification, I'll ask for that, but of
`
`course, we are not one and the same person, and so
`
`I'm not sure that your understanding of a question
`
`will be equivalent to mine.
`
` Q. It is also important that you finish your
`
`answer before I begin my next question. If I
`
`inadvertently cut you off before you've had a chance
`
`to finish your answer, I apologize in advance, but I
`
`do want you to have the chance to finish your
`
`answer. Will you tell me if you have not finished
`
`an answer at the time that I ask my next question?
`
` A. I will attempt to.
`
` Q. Now, please recognize there is a court
`
`reporter here recording the deposition. Please keep
`
`two things in mind. First, the reporter must be
`
`able to hear you. Secondly, the reporter can only
`
`record one person as a time so we should try to
`
`avoid cross talking of more than one person as much

`
` Q. Without getting into details, what was
`
`the subject matter of the deposition where you were
`
`a fact witness?
`
` A. I had done, alongside people at my firm,
`
`an evaluation of certain IP rights and wrote a
`
`report or white paper associated with that, and was
`
`asked fact questions about that report as I recall.
`
` Q. Were the IP rights patent rights?
`
` A. I'm not remembering exactly, but it's
`
`possible.
`
` Q. What year was that deposition?
`
` A. It was probably 10 years ago. It might
`
`have been a little bit more. It might have been a
`
`little bit less.
`
` Q. I'd like to ask you a few questions about
`
`your preparation for this deposition. And I'm going
`
`to attempt not to tread into privileged territory.
`
`Yes or no. Did you do anything to prepare for
`
`today's deposition?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. Without revealing privileged information,
`
`Page 13
`
`Page 11
`
`as possible. Do you understand that?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. Also the reporter cannot take down nods
`
`of the head, hand gestures or any other non-verbal
`
`responses, so on behalf of the reporter and me,
`
`please respond loudly and clearly at all times.
`
`Will you do so?
`
` A. I will respond to your questions
`
`verbally. I may occasionally nod my head or make a
`
`hand gesture, but I don't mean for any of those to
`
`be picked up on the transcript.
`
` Q. Have you had your deposition taken
`
`before?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. On how many occasions?
`
` A. Over the years, I've probably been
`
`deposed on something like 220 occasions. I'm
`
`probably off, but reasonably close.
`
` Q. How many of those depositions have been
`
`in your capacity as an expert witness?
`
` A. All of those. Oh, no, there was one that
`
`I was a fact witness for, but all the others have

`
`with the thought that I may eventually give
`
`deposition testimony, so everything I've done on
`
`this matter is in some sense in preparation for this
`
`deposition.
`
` Q. Did you meet with counsel?
`
` A. Over the course of our engagement, yes.
`
` Q. Did you meet with counsel specifically
`
`regarding this deposition in the last several days
`
`up to today's deposition?
`
` A. Yes. Over the phone.
`
` Q. How many phone conversations?
`
` A. Over the last few days, have I had with
`
`counsel? Is that the question?
`
` Q. Yes.
`
` A. I think one. Although I should mention
`
`that there was one in-person meeting.
`
` Q. When was the in-person meeting?
`
` A. It started about 40 minutes ago.
`
` Q. Do you recall when the phone conversation
`
`was?

`
` Q. Who was present on your phone
`
`conversation with counsel?
`
` A. Mr. Hasford and Ms. Lebeis.
`
` Q. Who is Ms. Lebeis?
`
` A. Jessica Lebeis is a lawyer for Finnegan
`
`who is working on this matter on behalf of the
`
`patentors.
`
` Q. And in addition to Mr. Hasford and
`
`Ms. Lebeis, was anyone else present on that phone
`
`conversation other than yourself?
`
` A. No. Not that I know of.
`
` Q. In the in-person meeting that was about
`
`40 minutes ago or started about 40 minutes ago, who
`
`was present at that meeting?
`
` A. Mr. Hasford and myself.
`
` Q. Anyone else in addition to you two?

`

`
` Q. Did you review deposition transcripts in
`
`advance of today's deposition in preparation for
`
`today's deposition?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. Were those your own deposition
`
`transcripts?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. Did you review any deposition transcripts
`
`of other people in preparation for today's
`
`deposition?
`
` A. We have looked at deposition transcripts
`
`over the course of our engagement, but over the last
`
`several days, the only transcripts that I've looked
`
`at are my two transcripts.
`
` Q. In answering the previous question, you
`
`said we have looked at deposition transcripts. Who
`
`is we?
`
` A. People at Analysis Group and myself that
`
`have worked on this matter.
`
` Q. What people at Analysis Group?
`
` A. The person who has been most intimately
`
`Page 17
`
`Page 15
`
` Q. Did you review documents in preparation
`
`for today's deposition?
`
` A. Again, everything I've done on this
`
`matter has been with the thought that I would be
`
`deposed, so yes, I have reviewed many documents.
`
` Q. During your telephone conference of, I
`
`believe it was yesterday, did you review documents?
`
` A. I don't know quite how to answer that
`
`besides saying during the call, we did make
`
`reference to my deposition transcript from a couple
`
`of weeks ago.
`
` Q. Do you recall what case that deposition
`
`transcript was a part of?
`
` A. I generally think of it as the PTAB
`
`matter and I think it was this case or set of cases
`
`in which InnoPharma took the lead in deposing me.
`
` Q. In addition to the deposition transcript,
`
`during that phone conversation, did you review to
`
`any other documents?
`
` A. No. Not that I recall.
`
` Q. In your in-person meeting today with
`
`counsel, did you review documents?

`
`involved in working with me has been Mike Nolan.
`
`Asula Belacova has been an important part of our
`
`team.
`
` Q. What is Mr. Nolan's position at Analysis
`
`Group?
`
` A. His title is manager.
`
` Q. What is Ms. Belacova's position at
`
`Analysis Group?
`
` A. Senior analyst.
`
` Q. You said that you have reviewed your two
`
`deposition transcripts. Which two deposition
`
`transcripts were you referring to?
`
` A. The one that was taken in the federal
`
`case and the one that was taken in the PTAB matter
`
`where I was questioned by a lawyer from InnoPharma.
`
` Q. The federal case you're talking about, is
`
`that Senju v. Watson and others?
`
` A. That sounds right to me.
`
` Q. And that's a case that's pending in New
`
`Jersey?
`
` A. Yes, I believe that's correct.

`
`Mr. Nolan and Ms. Belacova at Analysis Group, have
`
`you discussed this IPR with anyone else?
`
` A. Well, I've probably discussed it with
`
`other colleagues at Analysis Group. And I think I
`
`generally explained to my wife where I was going
`
`today, but we didn't talk about the substance of the
`
`matter.
`
` Q. In addition to your other colleagues at
`
`Analysis Group and possibly your wife, did you
`
`discuss this IPR with anyone else?
`
` A. Did you have on that list counsel and
`
`colleagues at Analysis Group?
`
` Q. Let me rephrase the question. In
`
`addition to your colleagues at Analysis Group, your
`
`colleagues Ms. Belacova and Mr. Nolan who you worked
`
`with, counsel, and possibly your wife, did you
`
`discuss this IPR with anyone else?
`
` A. Not that I recall. And just so that we
`
`are absolutely clear, Mr. Nolan and Ms. Belacova are
`
`colleagues of mine at Analysis Group.
`
` Q. I understand. In addition to Ms.
`
`Belacova and Mr. Nolan, did you work with anyone

`
`efforts necessarily lead to success.
`
` Q. Did Ms. Belacova work under your
`
`direction in your work on this IPR?
`
` A. Generally, she did. Yes.
`
` Q. When you say generally yes, what do you
`
`mean?
`
` A. Well, I didn't have every conversation
`
`that she had on this matter. In other words, she
`
`was -- I'm responsible for all the people at
`
`Analysis Group who worked on this, and I provided
`
`all of them direction, but there certainly were
`
`points in time in which there were just interactions
`
`between Ms. Belacova and Mr. Nolan, for instance.
`
`They had a conversation or part of analysis that I
`
`was generally aware of, but wasn't involved in all
`
`the details.
`
` Q. Did Mr. Nolan work at your direction on
`
`this matter?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. Did Ms. Gumen work under your direction
`
`on this matter?
`
` A. Generally, yes. Again, not all of her
`
`Page 21
`
`Page 19
`
`else from Analysis Group on this IPR?
`
` A. Yes, I believe so.
`
` Q. Who else from Analysis Group did you work
`
`with on this IPR?
`
` A. As I sit here tight now, I do not recall
`
`who has all been involved. But we have had other
`
`analysts and senior analysts help with certain
`
`aspects of the various projects.
`
` Q. When you refer to various projects, what
`
`do you mean?
`
` A. The various IPRs and Federal District
`
`Court case. Well, there is one non-analyst that
`
`comes to mind and that is Anna Gumen at Analysis
`
`Group helped us with a certain piece of it as well.
`
` Q. What is Anna Gumen's title at Analysis
`
`Group?
`
` A. Associate.
`
` Q. And what aspect did Ms. Gumen assist on
`
`in your work on these matters?
`
` A. I recall that she helped us to do some
`
`research on the issue of pharmaceutical marketing
`
`and return to such efforts, and whether those

`
`interactions on this matter involved me directly.
`
`Just as is the case with Ms. Belacova.
`
` Q. Do you know who Ms. Gumen would have
`
`worked with directly on this matter?
`
` A. A little bit with me, but a little bit
`
`more, as I recall, with Mr. Nolan.
`
` Q. Did Mr. Nolan take direction from anyone
`
`other than you on this matter?
`
` A. No. I oversaw and directed his work. Of
`
`course, he had interactions with counsel and looked
`
`at materials himself, but I was directly responsible
`
`for his work.
`
` Q. Did Ms. Belacova also have interactions
`
`with counsel on this matter?
`
` A. I don't recall if she did. It is
`
`possible that she had some, but those probably were
`
`limited interactions at best.
`
` Q. You mentioned Mr. Nolan had interactions
`
`with counsel. Were those in person? If you know.
`
` A. I think they were almost entirely, if not
`
`entirely over the phone. I'm not sure if you're
`
`calling that in person or not.

`

`
` Q. Other than your meeting today with
`
`counsel and your phone conference with counsel in
`
`the last several days -- let me rephrase that.
`
`Other than your meeting with counsel and your phone
`
`conversation with counsel recently, did you do
`
`anything else to prepare for today's deposition?
`
` A. Yes. Everything I've done on this matter
`
`was with the thought that I might be deposed.

`
` THE WITNESS: I've been involved in
`
`matters where Finnegan was counsel to the client and
`
`I was -- and our firm provided economic services to
`
`that same client in that same matter.
`
`BY MS. SUZUKI:
`
` Q. How many matters?
`
` A. How many matters have I worked alongside
`
`Finnegan? Is that the question? Over the years,
`
`it's been a couple or a few dozen. I don't know the
`
`exact number because I've, over the years, had
`
`something like 350 engagements. So it's a little
`
`bit hard to remember precisely how many I worked on
`
`with any particular set of lawyers, but I think a
`
`couple or a few dozen with people at Finnegan.
`
` Q. Was that 350 or 315?
`
` A. 50, though I could be off by a fair
`
`amount.
`
` Q. But who's counting. Have you worked with
`
`Mr. Hasford from Finnegan previously in your work as
`
`an expert on any case where Finnegan has been
`
`counsel?
`
` MR. HASFORD: You can answer yes or no.

`

`
` Q. Do you recognize this document?
`
` A. I don't think I've seen it before, but --
`
`so I guess in that regard, I don't recognize it.
`
` MS. SUZUKI: Counsel, can we stipulate
`
`that Mr. Jarosz is here pursuant to this notice of
`
`cross-examination?
`
` MR. HASFORD: So stipulated.
`
` MS. SUZUKI: Counsel, can we stipulate
`
`that the questions I ask today, unless otherwise
`
`stated, apply equally to IPR 2015-01097, IPR
`
`2015-01099, IPR 2015-01100 and IPR 2015-01105.

`
` Q. Mr. Jarosz, have you served as an expert
`
`for a matter for counsel from Finnegan previously?

`question yes or no.

`
` THE WITNESS: Yes.
`
`BY MS. SUZUKI:
`
` Q. On how many occasions have you worked
`
`with Mr. Hasford in your expert role in cases where
`
`Finnegan has been counsel?
`
` A. I don't know the precise number, but my
`
`best guess is that it's something on the order of
`
`half a dozen. I could be wrong.
`
` Q. Have you worked with Ms. Lebeis
`
`previously in your role as an expert for cases -- in
`
`cases where Finnegan was counsel?
`
` A. Not other than this set of cases having
`
`generally to do with Prolensa.
`
` Q. And your work with Mr. Hasford, was that
`
`approximately a half dozen cases in addition to the
`
`actions and IPRs concerning Prolensa?
`
` A. Yes. Though I could be wrong.
`
` Q. Have you served as an expert in any
`
`matter for Senju previously?
`
` A. Not other than in this set of matters
`
`having to do with Prolensa, as I recall.

`
`matter with Bausch & Lomb previously?
`
` A. It's possible that I did many years ago,
`
`but I only have a vague memory of that.
`
` Q. Did that case concern 6 ophthalmic drug
`
`formulations?
`
` A. Not the one that I'm remembering right
`
`now, but my memory is a little bit vague.
`
` Q. Do you recall --
`
` A. With regard to Bausch & Lomb.
`
` Q. I'm sorry. Did you have a chance to
`
`finish your answer?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. Do you recall if your previous case for
`
`Bausch & Lomb concerned pharmaceutical products?
`
` A. I don't think it did, and that's what
`
`makes me hesitate a little bit. Because I think of
`
`them as an eye care company. My memory tells me I
`
`worked on something with them a long time ago that
`
`didn't have to do with eye care, and so it makes me
`
`hesitate.

`

`

`
`your own personal work has been devoted to the
`
`Prolensa related IPRs and District Court cases?
`
` A. I don't know the answer to that. I would
`
`just be estimating, but my best estimate is that
`
`it's less than 5 percent of my work. I can't be any
`
`more precise than that.
`
` Q. How about Mr. Nolan's work? What
`
`percentage of his work in the last two years has
`
`been directed to the Prolensa related IPRs and
`
`District Court case?
`
` A. I think it's probably higher than my
`
`percentage. I'm reasonably sure that it is, but I
`
`can't be much more precise than that. I'm sorry.
`
` Q. And for Ms. Belacova, what percentage of
`
`her work in the last two years has been directed to
`
`the Prolensa related IPRs and District Court case?
`
` A. I think it's probably somewhere in
`
`between my percentage and Mr. Nolan's percentage,
`
`but I'm sorry. I can't be any more precise than
`
`that.
`
` Q. Have you served as an expert in an IPR
`
`concerning pharmaceutical patents previously?
`
`Page 29
`
`Page 27
`
` A. I don't think so. Although I've been
`
`involved in lots over the years. I'd have to go
`
`back and check my records, but I don't think I have.
`
` Q. To date, do you know how much Analysis
`
`Group has invoiced Finnegan in relation to Analysis
`
`Group's work on this IPR?
`
` A. I don't think I know that.
`
` Q. Do you know to date how much Analysis
`
`Group has invoiced Finnegan for in relation to
`
`Analysis Group's work on the various IPRs and the
`
`District Court case regarding Prolensa?
`
` A. As a factual matter, I'm not sure our
`
`retention is with Finnegan. It might be. So I'm
`
`not quite sure that we've invoiced Finnegan but we
`
`have sent invoices to Finnegan that perhaps Senju or
`
`someone else is responsible for. I just don't
`
`recall. Having said that, collectively, we've
`
`billed in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, but
`
`I can't be any more specific than that. In other
`
`words, I'm reasonably sure it's over $100,000, but
`
`I'm not certain how much over.

`

`
`assuming you're meaning a patent that can be used in
`
`a pharmaceutical product.
`
` Q. So you have served as an expert in an IPR
`
`concerning patents that can be used in a
`
`pharmaceutical product previously?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. On how many occasions have you served as
`
`an expert in an IPR concerning a patent that can be
`
`used in a pharmaceutical product?
`
` A. Sitting here right now, I clearly
`
`remember one, and there might be another one. I'd
`
`have to go back and check my files. And I assume
`
`you're saying other than the pending matters, other
`
`than the Prolensa matters.
`
` Q. Yes. So other than the Prolensa matters,
`
`you recall one and maybe one other IPR in which you
`
`have served as an expert on a pharmaceutical patent
`
`concerning IPR?

` MR. HASFORD: Object to the form.

`
`I'm also assuming when you're using the term serve
`
`as an expert that I've gotten to the point of
`
`submitting a declaration or report. I've worked on
`
`other matters that are IPRs and in pharmaceutical
`
`settings, but I think only one and possibly two
`
`others have gotten to the point of a filed report,
`
`besides the Prolensa matters.
`
`BY MS. SUZUKI:
`
` Q. And those previous IPRs that you've
`
`worked on in a pharmaceutical setting where it did
`
`not get to the point of submitting a declaration,
`
`did the parties settle?
`
` A. No. The ones that I'm thinking of right
`
`now are pending matters. It's possible some have
`
`settled. I'm not remembering that right now, but
`
`it's possible but I am involved in several
`
`pharmaceutical IPR matters that are pending matters.
`
` Q. How many pending IPR matters in a
`
`pharmaceutical setting are you working on right now?
`
` A. Besides the Prolensa matters? I'd have
`
`to go back and check. It might be two or three.

`
`have been approached by several Petitioners in IPR
`
`matters, but I don't think we accepted the retention
`
`in any of those matters.
`
` Q. And by we in your last answer, were you

`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. Does Analysis Group ever accept retention
`

`

`

`
