1 I, Hayden M. Schottlaender, declare as follows:
2 1. I am Counsel with the law firm Perkins Coie LLP and represent Defendant
3 Thomson Reuters Corporation (“Thomson Reuters”) in this case. I make this Declaration based
4 on my personal knowledge and am competent to testify to its contents.
5 2. Thomson Reuters has produced tens of thousands of documents to Plaintiffs in this
6 case. I have personally searched those produced documents for references to the type of data
7 discussed in Thomson Reuters’ contemporaneously filed Objection to New Reply Evidence.
8 Documents discussing Thomson Reuters’ contemplated licensing of that data were produced to
9 Plaintiffs in this case at least as early as May 2, 2022. The document beginning with TR-
10 BROOKS094958 serves as one example of such a produced document. Likewise, when Plaintiffs
11 deposed Eric Gerhard in this litigation about the above-referenced type of data, they questioned
12 him about a document beginning with TR-BROOKS025076. That document references the type
13 of data at issue. That document was produced by Thomson Reuters to Plaintiffs in April 2022.
14 3. Plaintiffs first notified Thomson Reuters of their intent to depose Eric Gerhard on
15 June 10, 2022. Plaintiffs then pursued discovery of Mr. Gerhard’s documents and, once that was
16 complete, Plaintiffs requested to depose Mr. Gerhard the week of October 17. Thomson Reuters
17 offered Mr. Gerhard for deposition on October 18, 2022. On September 26, 2022, Plaintiffs
18 unilaterally decided to “postpone” Mr. Gerhard’s deposition date and instructed Thomson Reuters
19 to “release the Oct 18 date.” To the best of my knowledge and based on a review of my emails,
20 Plaintiffs did not again mention or ask about deposing Mr. Gerhard until January 13, 2023. They
21 asked for a deposition in February 2023. Thomson Reuters proposed February 22, and Plaintiffs
22 agreed to that date. Plaintiffs deposed Mr. Gerhard on February 22, 2023.
