`2 EXAMINATION
`3 BY MR. ABE:
`4
`
` Q Q Good morning, Dr. Paulson.
`
` Q Q
`5
`
` A A Good morning.
`
` A A
`6
`
` Q Q Have you ever been deposed before?
`
` Q Q
`7
`
` A A Yes, I have.
`
` A A
`8
`
` Q Q Okay. Well, let me go over the ground
`
` Q Q
`9 rules just quickly to refresh you of how this will
`10 work.
`11 I represent the InnoPharma entities and I
`12 will be asking questions of you today. When I ask
`13 a question I will expect you to answer it. Your
`14 counsel might object, but I will still expect you
`15 to answer it unless your counsel instructs you not
`16 to answer. Is that okay?
`17
`
` A A It's okay.
`
` A A
`18
`
` Q Q If you don't understand a question that
`
` Q Q
`19 I'm asking, please let me know and I will try to
`20 clarify, but if you answer it I will assume you
`21 understood my question. Is that okay?
`22
`
` A A Yes.
`
` A A
`
`Page 11
`
`Page 13
`
`1 MR. ABE: Before I go into the
`2 questioning, I just want to note I think it is
`3 clear from the case caption that was stated --
`4 THE WITNESS: Could you people speak up
`5 so I can hear you?
`6 MR. ABE: Sure. I'm sorry about that.
`7 -- that we are conducting a consolidated
`8 deposition pursuant to an agreement that the
`9 parties reached by e-mail this morning. And under
`10 the conditions in that e-mail and including that
`11 the plaintiffs Patent Owner will not object to the
`12 IPR testimony by the witness given during this
`13 consolidated deposition from being used in the
`14 District Court litigation in a manner consistent
`15 with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the
`16 Federal Rules of Evidence.
`17 MR. DINER: I am just going to interject
`18 that the agreement that has been struck between
`19 the parties is that no party will object --
`20 MR. ABE: Both parties.
`21 MR. DINER: So it's bilateral?
`22 MR. ABE: Right. That's my
`
`1 MR. DINER: James, if I can just
`2 interject, Dr. Paulson is a Vietnam War veteran,
`3 and he does have a hearing deficiency so you may
`4 see him lean into you --
`5 THE WITNESS: Yeah.
`6 MR. DINER: -- to try to hear you better.
`7 THE WITNESS: Yes, so speak up.
`8 THE VIDEO OPERATOR: Excuse me, counsel,
`9 can we go off the record for a moment?
`10 MR. ABE: Of course.
`11 THE VIDEO OPERATOR: The time is
`12 10:12:05. Off the record.
`13 (Discussion off the record.)
`14 (Recess taken - 10:12 a.m.)
`15 (After recess - 10:20 p.m.)
`16 THE VIDEO OPERATOR: Stand by.
`17 On the record, the time is 10:20:06.
`18 BY MR. ABE:
`19
`
` Q Q Dr. Paulson, is there any reason you
`
` Q Q
`20 can't testify truthfully today?
`21
`
` A A No, there isn't.
`
` A A
`22
`
` Q Q You're not taking any medication that

`
` A A No.
`
` A A
`
` Q Q Okay, thank you.
`
` Q Q
` You mentioned you have been deposed
`before. How many times?
`
` A A One time.
`
` A A
`
` Q Q When was that?
`
` Q Q
`
` A A Two years ago.
`
` A A
`
` Q Q Do you recall what case it was?
`
` Q Q
`
` A A Yes. It was a BioScience case versus
`
` A A
`another woman who was suing the company, and I
`defended as a key employee.
`
` Q Q So you were not testifying as an expert
`
` Q Q
`in that case?
`
` A A No.
`
` A A
`
` Q Q And it had nothing to do with
`
` Q Q
`preservative efficacy or --
`
` A A No, nothing at all. Nothing at all.
`
` A A
`
` Q Q Dr. Paulson, you have several degrees.
`
` Q Q
`And you have a Ph.D. in microbiology, I believe?
`
` A A I have a Ph.D. in microbiology and
`
` A A
`psychology where I combined them at Saybrook.
`
`5 (Pages 14 to 17)
`
`Page 16
`
`1
`
` A A Yes, we do.
`
` A A
`2
`
` Q Q Do you personally?
`
` Q Q
`3
`
` A A Occasionally I'm involved in them.
`
` A A
`4
`
` Q Q What is your involvement?
`
` Q Q
`5
`
` A A If there is problems they always ask me
`
` A A
`6 to help solve them.
`7
`
` Q Q What kind of problems?
`
` Q Q
`8 MR. DINER: Objection, vague.
`9
`
` Q Q You can answer.
`
` Q Q
`10
`
` A A It could be any problem.
`
` A A
`11
`
` Q Q For example, if a procedure was not
`
` Q Q
`12 followed during a test protocol?
`13 MR. DINER: Objection. There is no
`14 question in that.
`15 MR. ABE: Let me rephrase it.
`16
`
` Q Q Would one of the problems be if a person
`
` Q Q
`17 didn't properly follow the procedures and they
`18 come to you, for example, whether that -- strike
`19 that.
`20 Do you have standard operating procedures
`21 at the company --
`22
`
` A A Yes, we do.
`
` A A
`
`Page 15
`
`Page 17
`
`1
`
` Q Q And that was in 1992?
`
` Q Q
`2
`
` A A Yes.
`
` A A
`3
`
` Q Q Is it accurate to say it's a Ph.D. in
`
` Q Q
`4 human science?
`5
`
` A A Well, that's what they call it. That's
`
` A A
`6 what they call it at Saybrook.
`7
`
` Q Q Okay.
`
` Q Q
`8 And how long have you had the company, is
`9 it biolife --
`10
`
` A A BioScience Labs.
`
` A A
`11
`
` Q Q BioScience Labs?
`
` Q Q
`12
`
` A A 25 years.
`
` A A
`13
`
` Q Q Is it okay if I refer to it as BSL?
`
` Q Q
`14
`
` A A BSLI, BSL.
`
` A A
`15
`
` Q Q Thank you.
`
` Q Q
`16 Dr. Paulson, do you conduct the
`17 preservative efficacy testing in the ordinary
`18 course of your business, you personally?
`19 MR. DINER: Objection, vague. Compound.
`20 You may answer.
`21
`
` A A Yes, we do.
`
` A A
`22
`
` Q Q Your company does?
`
` Q Q
`
`1 MR. DINER: Just let him finish his
`2 question before you answer. Otherwise the record
`3 is not going to be clear, and it's going to wreak
`4 havoc on the poor court reporter.
`5
`
` Q Q Do you have a procedure for how to handle
`
` Q Q
`6 deviations?
`7 MR. DINER: Objection, vague.
`8
`
` Q Q You can answer.
`
` Q Q
`9
`
` A A Yes, we do.
`
` A A
`10
`
` Q Q Do you know what the general procedure is
`
` Q Q
`11 for handling deviations?
`12 MR. DINER: Objection, vague. In which
`13 context are you referring to?
`14 MR. ABE: He says he has a standard
`15 operating procedure so I just want to know what,
`16 generally, it says.
`17
`
` A A Quality assurance has methods in place
`
` A A
`18 right now.
`19
`
` Q Q Okay.
`
` Q Q
`20 I earlier asked have you done
`21 preservative efficacy testing in your regular
`22 course of business, and you said you -- if there

` Do you actually conduct any of the
`testings in the labs?
`
` A A I have.
`
` A A
`
` Q Q When was the last time you've done the
`
` Q Q
`testing personally?
`
` A A The complete study? Probably four, five
`
` A A
`years ago.
`
` Q Q And this is referring to preservative
`
` Q Q
`efficacy testing?
`
` A A Yes.
`
` A A
`
` Q Q And that would include -- well, strike
`
` Q Q
`that.
` The last time you did that, was that the
`EP preservative efficacy testing?
`
` A A I don't remember.
`
` A A
`
` Q Q At your lab, BSL, do you regularly
`
` Q Q
`conduct what is called a European Pharmacopeia
`preservative efficacy testing?
` MR. DINER: Objection, asked and
`answered.
`
` Q Q You can answer.
`
` Q Q
`
`6 (Pages 18 to 21)
`
`Page 20
`
`1 is that right?
`2
`
` A A Yes, it is.
`
` A A
`3
`
` Q Q And one of the employees that conducts
`
` Q Q
`4 the EP criteria testing is by the name of
`5 Mr. Dan -- I'm sorry, I'm blanking on his name --
`6 Dragoo --
`7
`
` A A Dragotoiu.
`
` A A
`8
`
` Q Q Dragoo --
`
` Q Q
`9
`
` A A Dragotoiu.
`
` A A
`10
`
` Q Q Dragotoiu. Sorry. Thank you.
`
` Q Q
`11 Do you work with him regularly?
`12 MR. DINER: I'm sorry, can you repeat
`13 that question? I didn't hear that. I'm sorry.
`14
`
` Q Q Do you work with Mr. Dragotoiu regularly?
`
` Q Q
`15
`
` A A Yes, I do.
`
` A A
`16
`
` Q Q How long has he worked for you, or for
`
` Q Q
`17 BSL?
`18
`
` A A Him? Probably eight years.
`
` A A
`19
`
` Q Q And when BSL conducts EP -- strike that.
`
` Q Q
`20 When BSL conducts preservative efficacy
`21 testing in accordance with the EP, is it always
`22 Mr. Dragotoiu who conducts the testing?
`
`Page 19
`
`Page 21
`
`1
`
` A A We conduct those as well as Europeans.
`
` A A
`2 We conduct them all. It depends on what the

`5 ask you to do a testing in accordance with the EP?
`6 MR. DINER: Objection, calls for
`7 speculation.
`8
`
` Q Q You can answer.
`
` Q Q
`9
`
` A A Oh, probably six of them a year.
`
` A A
`10
`
` Q Q In accordance with the EP criteria?
`
` Q Q
`11 THE REPORTER: I'm sorry?
`12 MR. DINER: When you answer, you have to
`13 answer yes or no --
`14
`
` A A Yes.
`
` A A
`15 THE WITNESS: Okay.
`16 MR. DINER: You can't make a visual sign
`17 or a grunt or something.
`18 THE WITNESS: Okay.
`19 MR. ABE: Thank you.
`20 MR. DINER: And also let him finish his
`21 question before you jump in with an answer.
`22
`
` Q Q At BSL you have many employees, I assume;
`
` Q Q
`
`1
`
` A A No, sir.
`
` A A
`2
`
` Q Q Who is it?
`
` Q Q
`3
`
` A A There is various people in the in vitro
`
` A A
`4 lab that can do it.
`5
`
` Q Q Can you tell me a general number of how
`
` Q Q
`6 many people would conduct it on a, say --
`7
`
` A A Three.
`
` A A
`8
`
` Q Q Three people?
`
` Q Q
`9 And one of them is Mr. Dragotoiu?
`10
`
` A A Yes, it is.
`
` A A
`11
`
` Q Q Okay.
`
` Q Q
`12 The EP criteria requires testing of
`13 four -- well, strike that.
`14 Now, in this proceeding you provided some
`15 testimony regarding the EP criteria, correct?
`16
`
` A A Correct.
`
` A A
`17
`
` Q Q And in that you were required to test, I
`
` Q Q
`18 believe, four microorganisms; is that right?
`19 MR. DINER: Objection to the form of the
`20 question. Assumes facts not in evidence.
`21
`
` Q Q You can answer.
`
` Q Q
`22
`
` A A Yes, we did.

`
`1
`
` Q Q Can you state the four microorganisms?
`
` Q Q
`2
`
` A A Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staph aureus.
`
` A A
`3 Candida albicans, Aspergillus brasiliensis.
`4
`
` Q Q Can you tell me which one of these are a
`
` Q Q
`5 type of bacteria?
`6
`
` A A The Staph and the Pseudomonas. The Staph
`
` A A
`7 is gram-positive, Psuedomonas is gram-negative,
`8 and the other two are fungi.
`9
`
` Q Q Are any of these, can be categorized as
`
` Q Q
`10 also a yeast?
`11
`
` A A Candida albicans.
`
` A A
`12
`
` Q Q Now, when you conduct preservative
`
` Q Q
`13 efficacy testing, one of the steps is to grow
`14 these bacteria or fungus; is that right?
`15 Let's start with a bacteria. Can you
`16 just generally describe for me how the growing
`17 process occurs?
`18 MR. DINER: Objection. Are we speaking
`19 in terms of European Pharmacopeia or any criteria?
`20 MR. ABE: EP.
`21 MR. DINER: Do you have a document to
`22 show him? It's not a memory contest.
`
`7 (Pages 22 to 25)
`
`Page 24
`
`1 MR. DINER: Objection, vague. Compound.
`2
`
` A A Explain what you -- I don't see what
`
` A A
`3 you're getting at.
`4
`
` Q Q Right.
`
` Q Q
`5 So when do you write a protocol?
`6
`
` A A When a proposal has been accepted.
`
` A A
`7
`
` Q Q By proposal what do you mean?
`
` Q Q
`8
`
` A A Well, when a company asks us to do a job,
`
` A A
`9 we send out a proposal. When they say it's all
`10 right by signing the proposal, then we write a
`11 protocol.
`12
`
` Q Q And who determines whether that protocol
`
` Q Q
`13 is acceptable?
`14
`
` A A What do you mean, who determines?
`
` A A
`15
`
` Q Q So somebody at BSL writes the protocol,
`
` Q Q
`16 is that correct, and you submit that to -- was
`17 that a yes? Sorry. BSL writes the protocol?
`18
`
` A A Um-hmm.
`
` A A
`19
`
` Q Q Yes, and I believe you said you submit
`
` Q Q
`20 that to the, I guess I will refer to it, the
`21 customer?
`22
`
` A A Right.
`
` A A
`
`Page 23
`
`Page 25
`
`1
`
` Q Q Do you have any general understanding?
`
` Q Q
`2
`
` A A I would like to look at a document.
`
` A A
`3
`
` Q Q You would like to see that. Okay.
`
` Q Q
`4 Now, of the four microorganisms we just
`5 talked about, which one of these are molds or form
`6 molds?
`7 MR. DINER: Objection, vague.
`8
`
` A A Aspergillus brasiliensis.
`
` A A
`9
`
` Q Q Have you heard of the term GLP?
`
` Q Q
`10
`
` A A Yes, I have.
`
` A A
`11
`
` Q Q It stands for good laboratory practices;
`
` Q Q
`12 is that correct?
`13
`
` A A That's correct.
`
` A A
`14
`
` Q Q Generally speaking, what does that
`
` Q Q
`15 entail? What are sort of the requirements for
`16 that?
`17
`
` A A Quality assurance is involved. All the
`
` A A
`18 records are kept. There is a protocol written.
`19 All that.
`20
`
` Q Q When there is a protocol written, you
`
` Q Q
`21 just said, is there any kind of validation or
`22 qualification procedure that goes with that?
`
`1
`
` Q Q And the customer determines whether that
`
` Q Q
`2 is acceptable or not?
`3
`
` A A Right.
`
` A A
`4
`
` Q Q Is there any testing to verify that
`
` Q Q
`5 protocol is appropriate for the purpose?
`6 MR. DINER: Objection, vague.
`7
`
` A A I don't understand what you're referring
`
` A A
`8 to.
`9
`
` Q Q Which part did you not understand?
`
` Q Q
`10
`
` A A The last part.
`
` A A
`11
`
` Q Q The purpose.
`
` Q Q
`12 Does BSL conduct any testing to verify
`13 that the protocol will accomplish what is
`14 intended?
`15
`
` A A Right.
`
` A A
`16
`
` Q Q What is done to verify that?
`
` Q Q
`17
`
` A A The testing.
`
` A A
`18
`
` Q Q In accordance with the protocol that was
`
` Q Q
`19 written, correct?
`20 Is that a yes?
`21
`
` A A Yes.
`
` A A
`22
`
` Q Q So what type of documents do you refer to

`
`1 if you're writing a protocol for testing?
`2 MR. DINER: Objection, vague. What
`3 context are we talking about?
`4
`
` Q Q You can answer it.
`
` Q Q
`5
`
` A A What are we talking about?
`
` A A
`6
`
` Q Q So if I ask you to write a protocol with
`
` Q Q
`7 respect to a certain preservative efficacy
`8 testing, is there a document that you might refer
`9 to?
`10
`
` A A Yes.
`
` A A
`11
`
` Q Q What is it?
`
` Q Q
`12
`
` A A The EU guidelines.
`
` A A
`13
`
` Q Q The EU guidelines?
`
` Q Q
`14
`
` A A Um-hmm.
`
` A A
`15
`
` Q Q Is that the same as the, what I have been
`
` Q Q
`16 referring to as the EP as in European
`17 Pharmacopeia?
`18 MR. DINER: Objection, vague.
`19
`
` Q Q Is that a yes?
`
` Q Q
`20
`
` A A Yes. Yes.
`
` A A
`21
`
` Q Q And you would determine whether the
`
` Q Q
`22 product meets the EP criteria in accordance with
`
`8 (Pages 26 to 29)
`
`Page 28
`
`1 that is in accordance with the European
`2 Pharmacopeia you would have to refer to the
`3 European Pharmacopeia document; is that a fair
`4 statement?
`5 MR. DINER: Objection, incomplete
`6 hypothetical.
`7
`
` Q Q You can answer.
`
` Q Q
`8
`
` A A It depends -- what this study involved
`
` A A
`9 was the patent. We had to -- we had to go into
`10 that patent section and do it as it was written in
`11 there.
`12 MR. ABE: Let me hand over to you what
`13 has been marked as Exhibit 1001 in the IPR
`14 proceeding, and I believe it's IPR2015-00902.
`15 We will also mark it as Paulson
`16 Exhibit 1.
`17 (Paulson Deposition Exhibit No. 1 was
`18 marked for identification.)
`19 BY MR. ABE:
`20
`
` Q Q And for the record, this is United States
`
` Q Q
`21 Patent 8,669,290.
`22 Doctor, is it okay if I refer to this as
`
`Page 27
`
`Page 29
`
`1 that document you referred to --
`2 MR. DINER: Objection --
`3
`
` Q Q -- in which case you call the EU; is that
`
` Q Q
`4 right?
`5 MR. DINER: Objection, vague. Compound.
`6 Assumes facts not in evidence.
`7
`
` Q Q You can answer.
`
` Q Q
`8
`
` A A It's a pharmacopeia document, European
`
` A A
`9 Pharmacopeia.
`10
`
` Q Q So you defer to the European
`
` Q Q
`11 Pharmacopeia?
`12 MR. DINER: Objection, mischaracterizes
`13 his prior testimony.
`14
`
` Q Q So when you would -- strike that.
`
` Q Q
`15 When you prepare a protocol, for example,
`16 in accordance with the European Pharmacopeia, why
`17 do you refer to the European Pharmacopeia
`18 document?
`19 MR. DINER: Objection, incomplete
`20 hypothetical.
`21
`
` A A I don't understand.
`
` A A
`22
`
` Q Q Is it true that to develop a protocol
`
` Q Q
`
`1 the '290 patent?
`2
`
` A A Yes, it is.
`
` A A
`3
`
` Q Q Have you seen this patent before?
`
` Q Q
`4
`
` A A Yes, I have.
`
` A A
`5
`
` Q Q On the cover page, if I could direct your
`
` Q Q
`6 attention to the left side towards the middle
`7 where you see a (30) -- can you see that?
`8 Do you see that? Yes?
`9 Where it says Foreign Application
`10 Priority Data, do you understand what that means?
`11 MR. DINER: Objection, outside the scope
`12 of the deposition. Calls for a legal
`13 interpretation.
`14
`
` Q Q Do you have an understanding?
`
` Q Q
`15
`
` A A No, I don't.
`
` A A
`16
`
` Q Q Now, under that it says January 21st,
`
` Q Q
`17 2003. Do you see that?
`18 Well, I will represent to you that that
`19 was when the first patent application relating to
`20 this '290 patent was filed in Japan. And, doctor,
`21 you've conducted some testing or BSL has conducted
`22 some testing in relation to your testimony that is

`the testing in accordance with the European
`Pharmacopeia 7.0?
` MR. DINER: Objection, vague.
`
` Q Q Is that right?
`
` Q Q
` MR. DINER: Mischaracterizes prior
`testimony.
`

`
` A A
`the patent and that would tell us which time
`points to use.
`

`
` Q Q
` On January 21st, 2003, which version of

`

`
` A A
`
` Q Q You don't know. Could it have been the
`
` Q Q
`Version 4 of the EP?
` MR. DINER: Objection, calls for

`
` Q Q You can answer.
`
` Q Q
`
`9 (Pages 30 to 33)
`
`Page 32
`
`1
`
` Q Q Okay.
`
` Q Q
`2 On Column 9 of the '290 patent around
`3 Row 54 you see the word, "EP-Criteria A."
`4 Do you see that?
`5
`
` A A Yes.
`
` A A
`6
`
` Q Q So you did not follow the testing with
`
` Q Q
`7 respect to that section? And I'm referring to
`8 Column 9 around Row 54 through 61 -- sorry, yes,
`9 54 through 61.
`10 MR. DINER: Objection, vague. Asked and
`11 answered.
`12
`
` Q Q You can answer.
`
` Q Q
`13
`
` A A No. We followed EP criteria B.
`
` A A
`14
`
` Q Q When you say EP criteria B, do you mean
`
` Q Q
`15 the EP criteria B as described right underneath
`16 that at Column 9, Row 63 and through 67?
`17
`
` A A It also covers it on the right-hand side.
`
` A A
`18
`
` Q Q Thank you.
`
` Q Q
`19 So is that a yes, you followed --
`20
`
` A A Yes, we followed the total EP -- EP
`
` A A
`21 criteria B.
`22
`
` Q Q Earlier I think you -- so you -- strike
`
` Q Q
`
`Page 31
`
`Page 33
`
`1
`
` A A Could be.
`
` A A
`2
`
` Q Q So can you turn to page -- sorry,
`
` Q Q
`3 Column 9. That's Page 7 of the Exhibit 1. Is
`4 this the general page that you have been referring
`5 to as -- strike that.
`6 You said you conducted the testing in
`7 accordance with the patent. Is this page the
`8 relevant page for that?
`9
`
` A A Yes.
`
` A A
`10
`
` Q Q Okay. So when you conducted the testing
`
` Q Q
`11 you did follow the European preservative -- sorry,
`12 EP -- let me start that over.
`13 So when you conducted the testing you
`14 followed the EP preservative efficacy testing,
`15 correct?
`16 MR. DINER: Objection, mischaracterizes
`17 his prior testimony.
`18
`
` Q Q You can answer.
`
` Q Q
`19
`
` A A We followed it, but we followed EP
`
` A A
`20 criteria B.
`21
`
` Q Q So you did not follow EP criteria A?
`
` Q Q
`22
`
` A A No, we didn't.
`
` A A
`
`1 that.
`2 In your preservative efficacy testing you
`3 followed the time points in the patent; is that
`4 correct?
`5
`
` A A Of EP criteria B.
`
` A A
`6
`
` Q Q Of EP criteria B. Thank you.
`
` Q Q
`7 So the time points that you tested, that
`8 was in accordance with the '290 patent and not the
`9 EP criteria B; is that correct?
`10 MR. DINER: Objection,
