`

`
`MR. WINCHESTER: Go ahead .
`
`MR. GRANT: I'm going to object
`
`to the lack of foundation. You're
`
`asking a corporate witness for PM P
`
`USA about an Altria document that he
`
`testified he hadn't seen before, so
`
`he's got no foundation to testify
`
`about it. It's outside the scope of
`
`the noticed topics, calls for
`
`speculation .
`
`You can answer from your personal
`
`knowledge, if any.
`
`MR. WINCHESTER: I think he said
`
`he didn't know if he'd seen it.

`
`Q. But do you have an understanding
`
`of what these statements are on this
`
`page 6825 in King Exhibit --
`
`A.
`
`I mean I --
`
`MR. GRANT: You've just got to
`
`pause. He posed a new question.
`
`Same objections, lack of foundation,
`
`outside the scope of the noticed
`
`topics. You can answer from your
`
`personal knowledge, if any.
`
`A. Can you try that question one
`
`more time. I'm a little bit uncertain
`
`as to what you're asking.
`
`Q. So my question is just
`
`background. When you look at this page,
`
`do you understand what these statements
`
`are or what their purpose is?
`
`MR. GRANT: Same objections.
`
`A.
`
`I can read the words on the page
`
`and I do understand what they say.
