`A.
`No.
`Q.
`Or with anyone else?
`A.
`No.
`Q.
`Okay. Yesterdayr we discussed your

`at Jubilant in Canada, right?
`A.
`Yes.
`if I'm
`Q.
`And you had an understanding.
`correct.
`that the Version 2 had been used at
`least in Canada?
`

`
`it was used with human patients?
`A.
`Yes.
`Q.
`Do you know whether images were taken
`
`as a result of those uses?
`A.
`I have not reviewed the details of
`
`how it was used.
`
`And you have not reviewed any
`Q.
`documentation or testimony or any evidence
`regarding the use of Version 1?
`
`A.
`I don‘t recall any such evidence.
`Q.
`Okay.
`let‘s go back to Klein -- I
`think you said that Version 1 was smewhat based
`on the Klein Thesis?
`A.
`Yes.
`Q.
`When did the uses of Version 1 occur?
`A.
`I do not loiow the details of when it
`occurred.
`Q.
`about 2005;

`
`The Klein Thesis was prepared in

`That's try mderstanding, yes.
`So it was sorretime after 2005?
`That's correct.

`Q.
`
`And then if you recall. yesterday. we
`
`looked at some ewmails indicating that the

`
`Version 3 development was going on, at least in

`
`A.

`
`I'll accept that.
`Okay —-
`
`I'd ——
`
`A.
`
`-~ have to go back and look at my
`
`dates and ~-
`—— so the Version 1 and Version 2
`Q.
`work and use of those systems occurred likely
`between 2005 and 2010?

`Q.
`Who told —-
`
`A.
`
`—— and _-
`
`—— oh. sorry. Go ahead.
`Q.
`—- I don't recall if I asked that
`A.
`counsel -- that question of counsel at Jubilant
`or if it was told to we by the attorneys here.
`
`And that was with reference to
`Q.
`Version 1 being used at a few universities?
`
`A.
`
`Yes, I —— universities, and I believe
`
`it was used in trials in order to get approvals
`for Version 2.
`Q.
`Were any of those universities or
`trials in the limited States?
`
`Not to my loiowledge.
`A.
`Has the Version 1 device ever been
`Q.
`publicly available in the United States?
`A.
`Not to my knowledge.
`Q.
`Do you know how Version 1 has used in
`the universities?
`A.
`I do not know the details.

`Okay.
`Is it your mderstandjng that

`
`That's a likely statement.
`And just to be clear. Version 1
`
`predated Version 2, right?
`
`A.
`Q.
`
`Definitely.
`Okay.
`So to return to your analysis of the
`Klein Thesis with respect to the asserted
`
`patents, The Klein Thesis does not disclose that
`the infusion system is configured for the saline
`tubing line and the eluate tubing line to he
`routed through two timing passageways formed in a
`perimeter surface of the first opening. which we
`discussed yesterday was the generator
`ompartrrent, wherein each of the two tubing
`passageways has a depth configured to prevent

`figure.
`3
`4

`
`So I‘d like to correct that
`testimony. That's -- the Klein Thesis was the
`source of that infomation, that there's a

`'1
`
`8

`10
`11

`13
`

`
`20
`21
`22
`
`23
`24.l
`25
`
`A.
`Q.
`
`I believe that is correct.
`And we also talked yesterday about
`
`the cart depicted in the Klein Thesis, and you
`stated that an external shell could have an open
`side, right?
`I did.
`A.
`Okay. But the Klein Thesis does not
`Q.
`disclose an exterior shell that extends upwardly
`
`above the platform and has a front side, a rear
`side,
`two sidewalls connecting the front side to
`the rear side.
`
`Right?
`I -~ I'm sorry. Repeat that. That
`a.
`doesn't sound correct.
`
`0.
`
`Sure.
`So I believe that the Klein Thesis
`does not disclose an exterior shell that extends

`12
`13
`

`I 19
`
`20
`21
`22
`
`generator access lid on the top of the ICLein
`cart ~-
`
`Okay —-
`Q.
`~~ so if we can go to --
`A.
`-- so I want to v- yeah, let's go
`Q.
`through this one step at a time.
`So you're on Page 148 of your opening
`
`rqaort --
`
`A.
`Q.
`A.
`
`That's correct.
`-- Paragraph 32‘? ——
`Yes.
`
`-- An annotated version,
`Q.
`ICLein Thesis, Figure 2-4?
`A.
`Yes.
`
`Q.
`
`So we've got this figure.
`Okay.
`And could you make your correction
`
`again of -.
`
`upwardly above the platform and has a front side,
`a rear side,
`two sidewalls that connect the front
`side to the rear side.
`
`
`' 23
`24
`25
`
`I couldn't rarember where I
`Right.
`A.
`had gotten the information that there was a
`generator access lid on the top.
`It is from the

`Q.
`sidewalls connect an open space to anything?
`it
`There's not just open space -- space
`on that front side;
`there are lips that fold in

`
`by 90 degrees. even 1-mi11in'eter fold, you've now

`
`I think that's an moggerated way of
`A.
`state -- stating it. Those are obviously on the
`front side and oonnected to the top sider and
`they fold around to the front side, each of those
`lips that I referred to.
`It's

`there, and it's on the front of the device. And
`call it —— saying it's a front side airply
`because it is —— has -— is a hole is a limitation
`
`that I don't see required.
`Q.
`Okay.
`If the sidewalls did not have
`a lip and the top and the bottom did not have a
`lip,
`then would there be a front side?
`A.
`They would terminate at the front

`Q.
`I believe you testified yesterday,

`A.

`Okay. How do you define the boundary

`How do you define the boundary of the

`You stop having more material out

`Q.
`front direction in front of the computer muse on

`A.
`That shelf, if you look at it, is a
`pullout shelf.
`It's a shelf; it's not part of
`
`the exterior portion of the cabinet.
`So I'm not sure that your —- what
`your question is pointing at.
`Q.
`Sure.
`
`So I'd like to understand ~~ so this
`same claim element, 1.1.a, that is reproduced on
`Page 391', we were forming on the first part
`about the sidewalls and such. The element
`
`omtinues to state, Wherein the platform and the
`exterior shell collectively defined an interior
`
`
`
`
`
`the edges, where is the boimdary of the interior
`space for that noose?
`A.
`It's sitting in the interior space on
`a shelf that's enclosed within the cart.
`Q.
`And where does the space end if you
`
`were saving in the -- in the front direction --
`if you're moving towards what you say is the
`front side, doesn't an interior space need to
`have a boundary?
`h.
`Wig?
`Q.
`What defines an interior space from
`the rest of the atmosphere?
`A.
`It's enclosed by the edges of the ——
`of the cart.
`So it's your view that the space is
`Q.
`enclosed even though a side is open?
`A.
`I didn't say that.
`I said the space
`is enclosed by the edges of the cart, not that
`the cart is necessarily closed.
`Q.
`Sine. you‘re right.
`
`I misspoke about
`
`that.
`

`All right.
`So separate and apart
`from how the FIiA may consider all of these things
`in a bundle together with respect to the patent
`analysis, where we need to identify specifically
`each prior art reference that you‘re relying on,
`you are relying on a combination of the devica as
`a physical thing and the manual for your opinion
`that the claims are obvious?
`
`Bracco Hamel for your obviousness opinion,
`right?
`I believe that we cite the
`A.
`Bracco Marmal in all of those instances.
`
`I think, yesterday, we went through
`Q.
`the exercise of tracking back where you cited an

`actually a photograph of the system rather than a

`
`some particular instance, I'd be glad to go over
`it with you.

`
`So let‘s turn to Page 505 of
`
`Sure.
`
`your report.
`
`And this is the first page of your
`opinions regarding the asserted claims being
`obvious in view of a CardicGen reference.
`
`In the title of this section, All
`
`Asserted Claims are Rendered Obvious by the
`CaIdiOGeo—BZ Infusion Bystan, which reference or
`carbination of references are you referring to?
`The Bracoo Marcel,
`the CardioGen device or both?
`
`Infusion system, as defined by the
`A.
`FDA as a product,
`is the device itself, all of
`its accessories and labeling.
`
`So trying to separate to say it's
`just what we looked at is the cart versus the
`label _- those are one and the sane, as far as
`
`the FDA is concerned. And they describe the
`entire system.

`
`figure that's described in Paragraph 1668 is
`actually from the Braceo Hamel, right?
`A.
`That's correct.
`
`So can we be sure that your citations
`Q.
`to infusion system are the device and citations
`to the martial are the manual, or are -- do you
`use them interdiangeably?

`cites,- that's what he relies on ~-
`MS. BOOKBINDER; Sure.
`
`Well, I'd like to ask him about
`
`this specific citation at Paragraph 1663.
`MR. WALKER: And he told you.
`I mean, it says it right there,

`I --
`MS. BOOKBINDER: Well,

`So it's completely acceptable to use

`KS. BOOKBDIDER:
`THE WITNESS:
`I said I rely on the
`Bracco system. 32. and that I use the
`normal as illustrations to what's in the
`thing Because it would be quite
`diffimt to take a picture and show all
`
`of those coupments at once, whereas the
`W1 and the literature that hooked it
`up have been available for quite sons
`tine.
`
`There's no reason to suspect that
`the renual is inaccurate in portraying
`what was in the device.
`It makes it
`clear.
`BY MS. BOOKBINDER:
`
`What literature are you referring to”:I
`Q.
`The model.
`A.
`I think -— you said the -- the martial

`Q.
`All right.
`And then in the last paragraph of
`this element. Therefore. it is my opinion that
`
`the CardioGen—BZ Infusion System teaches the
`subject matter, you do not have an additional
`paragraph like we saw yesterday in your
`discussion of the Klein Thesis of other
`references redmdantly teaching something.
`And I don't believe I saw a paragraph
`like that in any of your CardioGen discussion.
`
`Do you know if that's accurate?
`Let's go -~ I want to go paragraph by

`Do you know why, at least in the

`references in the CardioGen section?
