`12
`Q. And how do you spell the last name?

`Q. Thank you.
`Do you have an understanding of why you're
`16
`17 here to testify today?
`A. Yes.
`18
`Q. And what is your understanding?
`A. That there's been some IPRs that were
`20
`21 filed regarding five patents and the declaration I
`22 wrote in support of those IP Rs.
`Q. And to clarify, you signed a single
`23
`24 declaration that was submitted with each of these
`25 IPR petitions. Is that right?
`
`1
`
`2
`
`7
`
`19
`
`Do you understand that?
`A. Yes.
`Q. And I may also refer to the group of these
`3
`4 five patents as either the Sanofi patents, the
`5 SoloSTAR patents, or the challenged patents.
`Do you understand that?
`6
`A. Yes.
`Q. Okay. You've been deposed before.
`8
`9 Correct?
`A. Yes.
`10
`11 Q. And how many times, approximately?
`A. Approximately 30 times or so.
`12
`Q. And of those 30 times, how many of those
`13
`14 depositions were you serving as an expert?
`A. Just about all of them.
`15
`Q. So are there any depositions where you've
`16
`17 testified not as an expert?
`MR. TORCZON: Objection. Scope.
`18
`A. No, not that I can recall.
`Q. All right. Well, I'm going to go over
`20
`21 some rules and guidelines. Sounds like you're
`22 fairly familiar with the process. However, it
`23 can't hurt to go over some things.
`So I'll be asking you a series of
`24
`25 questions, and you must provide an answer to each

`A. Yes.
`A. Those that are here present.

`1 have you read through the entirety of the '486
`2 patent?
`A. At least once or twice.
`Q. And when did you last review it?
`A.
`I'm not sure. It was probably Saturday of

`9
`Q. And for the '008 patent would your answer

`1 7
`Q. So you testified earlier that you were
`18
`19 engaged in this matter sometime in 2018. Is that
`20 right?
`MR. TORCZON: Objection. Asked and
`answered.
`A. Yes, sometime in 2018.
`Q. Okay. When did you begin drafting your
`24
`25 declaration?
`
`6/3/2019
`Page 5 (14- 17)
`Page 16
`If you could look at the first page inside
`1
`2 the cover. It's marked Roman numerette 1. You see
`3 the table of contents, and it continues over the
`4 next four pages.
`Do you see that?
`A. Yes.
`Q. So which of these sections did you write
`7
`8 the first draft for?
`MR. TORCZON: Objection. Relevance.
`A. I know I wrote the level of skill in the
`10
`11 art -- a lot of these. I'm not sure which ones I
`12 started. I think we started off with tossing
`13 around a lot of different prior art back and forth.
`14 I found some prior art.
`And then I drafted a lot of the sections,
`15
`16 especially the qualifications, legal standards I've
`1 7 had from the past. The attorneys then filled in a
`18 lot of that, since that's the legal part.
`Q. How about any of the sections beginning on
`19
`2 o page 91 and continuing through page 469?
`A. I don't recall, you know, who started
`21
`22 what. I think they helped put together the tables
`23 in the very beginning, and then every single
`24 section after that, I went through step by step of
`2 5 each of the prior arts with the attorneys. They
`Page 17
`A. I don't recall.
`1 took notes. They drafted everything together.
`Q. Was it soon after you were engaged?
`2 There wasn't any single statement that was made in
`A. No. I was talking to the law firm,
`3 here that either I didn't create or I didn't
`3
`4 actually, for quite a while, because I was actually
`4 approve.
`Q. You stated that you found some of the
`5 working on a case against Mylan at the time.
`5
`Q. Okay. What case was that?
`6 prior art.
`A. That was on an EpiPen that failed.
`What prior art specifically did you locate
`7
`7
`8 and find?
`8 Liability case.
`Q. Did you write the first draft of your
`A. Well, Klitgaard, for one. Because I was
`9
`9
`10 declaration?
`10 working on some other injector pen-type projects,
`A. I wrote many different sections. It was a
`11 and the Klitgaard was part of that project.
`11
`Q. Any others?
`12 huge declaration, and then we pieced it together as
`12
`13 time went on.
`A.
`I think I also had found Moller, but I
`13
`Q. I'm going to introduce Exhibit 1011 that's
`14 believe they had found Moller as well. And I found
`14
`15 been premarked in this matter. It is premarked.
`15 Steenfeldt-Jensen, and I think they found that one
`16 as well. Then I found many others. I don't recall
`It will make carrying the box much easier.

`A. We just met twice.
`2
`Q. And when was your first meeting with the
`3
`4 attorneys to prepare for this deposition?
`MR. TORCZON: Objection. Relevance.
`A. Last Thursday.
`Q. And how long did you meet for on Thursday?
`MR. TORCZON: Same objection.
`A. Just during the day, about eight hours.
`Q. Were there any non-attorneys at this

`A. Other than the nice lady who brought us
`12
`13 lunch and breakfast, no.
`Q. Okay. Do you recall the names of the

`A. That's correct.
`2
`Q. Could you please tum to page 471 at the
`3
`4 back of your declaration, but keep your finger on
`5 page 1.
`All right. On pages 471 to 473, is this a
`6
`7 complete list of the materials you examined to form
`8 the opinions contained in your declaration?
`A. Yes, plus my general knowledge of other, I
`9
`10 think, prior art and patents in the type of art of
`11 pen injectors.
`Q. Okay. But there are no --you didn't
`12
`13 review any documents for purposes of this
`14 declaration that aren't listed here on pages 4 71 to
`15 473. Is that right?
`A. That's correct.
`Q. All right. So, then, to summarize,
`17
`18 looking back at paragraph 1, your opinions in this
`19 report -- let me re-ask that.
`Looking back at paragraph 1, are your
`20
`21 opinions in this report based on anything other

`6
`A. Yes.
`7 reference patents within them, the same with the
`7
`8 prior art that I cite in my analysis.
`Q. All right. Could we tum to paragraph 1

`
`11
`
`12
`
`13
`
`16
`
`You know what? Strike that, too. You
`1
`2 mentioned some others in the prior art.
`Let's look at Exhibit 1013, and you
`3
`4 mentioned that you had reviewed some documents that
`5 are referenced in some of the prior art references.
`So are there any documents that you
`6
`7 reviewed that aren't listed on pages 4 71 to 4 73
`8 that are referenced in the Burroughs reference?
`A Yes. In the '046 patent, US Patent
`9
`10 No. 5,295,976.
`Q. Okay.
`It's on line 42, column 1.
`A
`Q. Okay.

`23 Steenfeldt-Jensen, which is Exhibit 1014.
`Did you review any documents that are
`24
`2 5 referenced in here that are not listed on pages 4 71
`Page 29

`1 to 4 73 of your declaration for purposes of arriving
`A That's correct.
`2 at the opinions in your declaration?
`2
`Q. I want to go back to the '008 patent since
`A. Do you realize the patent you gave me is
`3
`3
`4 you mentioned that you reviewed some documents that
`4 highlighted?
`Q. Yeah, that's not our highlighting. We
`5 were referenced in there.
`5
`Can you identify for me what documents you
`6 have the same thing.
`6
`7 reviewed to arrive at the opinions in your
`A.
`In the '004 patent, column 1, there is
`7
`8 declaration from -- yeah.
`8 some references there, but I don't recall whether I
`A Yes.
`9 actually looked at those or not. EP -- on line 46,
`Q. And what are those?
`10 EP427910.
`10
`Q. You mean 327?
`11 A US Patent No. 5,304,152. Another patent,
`12 W09938554A2.
`A. 327. Yeah. Sorry.
`Q. No worries.
`Q. And those are two patents that are
`13
`14 identified in column 1 at line 53 and line 60 of
`A. And then column 1, line 65, EP450905. And
`14
`15 the '008 patent. Is that right?
`15 then column 2, line 7, EP608343.
`Q. Okay. Any other documents from the
`A That's correct.
`16
`Q. Did you review, other than the documents
`17 Steenfeldt-Jensen reference?
`1 7
`18 in pages 471 -- that are listed in pages 471
`A. Not that I can recall. There might be
`18
`19 through 473 of your declaration, and other than the
`19 others listed in the reference.
`Q. Let's take a look at Moller, which is
`2 o two documents from the column 1 of the '008 patent,
`20
`21 and other than the related application data of the

`A So the same for the Moller patent as the

`4 there's no really columns here. Page one,
`5 paragraph 2. It says EP327990, which I think is

`7 EP608343. Paragraph 8, WO99/38554. Then there's

`Do you have an understanding of the

`23 there's probably a little more testifying
`24 experience. That's all I can recall right now.
`Q. And when you say there's two more patents,
`25
`Page 33
`1 do you mean there are two more issued patents?
`A. Correct. Two more granted patents.
`MR. TORCZON: Objection. Scope.
`Q. And do either of those two patents cover
`4
`5 anything that you would characterize as a pen
`6 injector?
`MR. TORCZON: Objection. Scope.
