something happened to me, I wanted them to rest assured

that Julie was also there looking over their photos,

releasing their images, which those are their little

babies and they were concerned with that.

The customers of DRK would know Julie because she

Ted Wood and HMH or Houghton Mifflin?


A.

When I went to the deposition, we just discussed

licensing practices of DRK Photo.

Q.

Was DRK a party to that case?

A.

DRK wasn't a party to the case.

I was just asked

if I would mind giving a deposition, I believe.

Q.

Were you acting as an expert in that case?

A.

No, I was not acting as an expert.

Q.

What was the subject of the deposition?

09:40 10

A.

I don't remember.

11

Q.

Who took the deposition?

By that, I mean was it

12

a deposition that Ted Wood took of you, his side, or was

13

it a deposition that HMH took of you?

14
09:40 15
16
17

A.

It was the other side of the table.

I assume

that means the opposing attorney.


Q.

By other side of the table, you mean the

publisher, not the photographer?

18

A.

Yeah.

19

Q.

And the two attorneys --

09:41 20

A.

The two attorneys questioned me.

21

Q.

So it was not an attorney from Harmon & Seidman

22
23
24
09:41 25

The publisher had two attorneys there.

who questioned you?


A.

No, no.

It was the other two attorneys

questioned me about licenses.


Q.

What did they ask you about licenses?

09:41

A.

They asked me six or seven hours worth of

questions about licensing.


Q.

What was the general thrust of that?

I'm not

asking you to repeat your testimony, but I'm trying to get

a sense of what this deposition was about.

A.

They showed me all sorts of licenses that I had

issued in the past and were wondering how I priced photos

based on the rights packages and things like that.

Q.

Do you know how that related to that particular

case?
A.

No, I don't.

I don't know what that was about.

I just came there and answered their questions.


Q.

Other than in the case between Ted Wood and HMH

or Houghton Mifflin, have you ever given a deposition?

09:42 15

A.

Not that I recall, no.

16

Q.

Have you ever given testimony other than in a

17

deposition?

18

A.

19
09:42 20
21

I gave testimony -- yeah, I think I gave

testimony, if that's what you call it.

Like in a small

court outside of Cottonwood, Arizona.

I don't know what

kind of court it was.


So I guess, yes, I have given testimony.

testimony?

riding some dirt bikes off in the countryside.

Q.

So it was not involving photography?

A.

Nothing to do with photography.

Q.

At the time the Harmon & Seidman firm asked if

you would give a deposition in the Ted Wood case, were you

matters?

When was the first time?

Harmon & Seidman first and only represented us in

a case against Houghton Mifflin -- Houghton Mifflin, HMH.


Q.

Do you know when Harmon & Seidman represented you

in connection with a case against HMH?


A.

I don't know exactly.

If I had to make a guess

at it, I would say it was around 2009.


2010.

I'm not exactly sure.

Page 42

those rights would have been $170 for up to a half page

photo for up to 40,000 copies and a print run; is that

correct?

4
10:37

A.

The base price here for an image used one time in

the book up to a half page in size would be $170, for

which they would -- we can offer up to one time North

American English language, one print version with a print

run not to exceed 40,000 copies, no other rights granted

or implied, no electronic publishing rights granted.

10:37 10

Q.

So if Wiley requested the rights that are listed

11

in this exhibit and said we're calling to print 40,000

12

copies, you would have charged them $170?

13
14
10:38 15

A.

I would have charged them -- if they were asking

for one-time English language North American only, print


rights only, no other rights, I should have charged

16

them -- we were offering $170 for pictures used up to a

17

half page in size.

18
19
10:38 20
21

Q.

By the way, for North American under these

prices, that also included up to 10 percent distributed


outside of North America?
A.

It says to include 10 percent or less

22

distribution abroad.

23

abroad.

24
10:38 25

Q.

So that would be up to 4,000 copies

If Wiley were to tell you that we need 40,000

copies of that, no more than 3500 will be distributed

Page 43

outside the US, we will abide by the rights in No. 2, the

charge for that would have been $170 for up to a half

page?

4
10:39

A.

Providing that they were all English language

copies and that there was print copies only and it was

just that one version of the specific title they were

asking us to license.

8
9
10:39 10

Q.

And instead of 40,000 copies, they asked you for

20,000 copies, the price would have been the same?


A.

We probably would have billed the same amount

11

because it was covered -- it would have been -- this is a

12

base price for up to 40,000 copies.

13
14
10:39 15
16

Q.

So if they asked for 20,000 and it's all the same

rights and it's in English and it's in North America, that


would have been $170 for up to half a page?
A.

If I understood this question correctly, yes.

If

17

you're asking -- if you're saying they weren't asking for

18

more than North American, including 10 percent

19

distribution abroad, English language only, only one

10:40 20

edition to the book and they just requested 20, we would

21

have billed them this first bracket, this first increment.

22

We would have given up to 40,000.

23

requested up to 40.

24
10:40 25

They could have

If they requested 20, they would be charged the


same rate.

them an additional 10 percent; is that correct?


A.

4
10:40

And if they requested 60, you would have charged


And according to this, you would have charged

At the time -- this is 2000 to 2001 -- we would

have billed in addition, if the print run went over

40,000, at the time we were offering to bill them 10

percent additional per 40,000 copy increment.


Q.

8
9
10:41 10

Right.

So, again, instead of asking for 40, they

asked for 60, what you would have billed them for would
have been $170 plus a 10 percent increment, another $17?

11

A.

That would be correct.

12

Q.

And instead of 60, they asked for 80, that still

13

would be in the second 40,000 increment, so you would have

14

billed them $170 plus 10 percent, so another $17, so you

10:41 15

would have billed them $187; is that correct?


A.

16

Yes, back in 2001, we would have billed them --

17

if they asked for 60 or if they asked for 80, it would

18

have been a 10 percent increase over the 170, making it

19

187.

10:41 20

Q.

And within the 80, they used 72,000 in North

21

America and they distributed 8000 outside of North

22

America, that would have been permitted in this price

23

because it's 10 percent or less distribution abroad,

24

correct?

10:42 25

A.

I would say yes, if they printed 80,000, that

10:42

they should get 10 percent of that to distribute -- they

could distribute up to 10 percent of that total press run

abroad as long as they are English language copies and

print and still all the same other little parameters.

Q.

If Wiley asked for a print run of 20,000, but

made a print run of 40,000 so that they underestimated the

print run, you still would have gotten the same price if

they gave you the accurate print run; isn't that correct?

9
10:43 10

A.

If you're asking if they had came to us and asked

for 20,000 and then came to us and asked for 40,000, these

11

were the prices being offered for up to 40.

12

those would have received the same billing assuming they

13

were within the parameters of North American English

14

language only, one print only.

10:43 15

Q.

So both of

Wiley gained nothing in terms of a better price

16

by telling you 20,000 if they were going to really print

17

30,000 because either way, they would have gotten the same

18

price; isn't that correct?

19
10:43 20

A.

Wiley would have gotten the same price either way

between 20 or 30,000, but if they asked for 30 and printed

21

50, then --

22

Q.

That wasn't my question.

My question was, if

23

Wiley asked for 20 but wound up printing 30, they didn't

24

get a better price because it was still within the same

10:44 25

price; isn't that correct?

Objection; misstates his testimony.

BY MR. PENCHINA:
Q.

11

But Wiley wouldn't get a better price if it told

12

you 20 and instead it printed 30; the price was going to

13

be the same either way; isn't that correct?

14

A.

If they printed 20 instead of 30?

10:45 15

Q.

If they printed 30 instead of 20, the price would

16

have been the same if they had told you 30 as opposed to

20?

18
19
10:45 20
21
22
23
24
10:45 25

A.

If the licensing request came through with 30

versus 20 and they approached us prior to publication of


the book, et cetera, et cetera, like it should be, we
would bill them this 170 because they were under the 40.
Q.

And that's the same that you would have billed

them for the 20?


A.

20 or 30,000 copies would have been billed the

same fees during that 2001.

Q.

And so would 40,000 copies, correct?

A.

We would have allowed up to 40,000 copies.

Q.

So if they told you 20 but they actually printed

40, they wouldn't have paid anymore if they had told you

40 in the first place?

Q.

And if instead of telling you 20 and printing 40,

they wound up printing 60, so they've exceeded the print


and they've now bounced into the next increment on the
price chart; is that correct?
A.

If they would approach us on a project with

60,000 copies, they would step into the next increment.


Q.

So they would have been billed an additional $17

for that photo; is that correct?


A.

If they came to us from the get-go prior to the

17

book requesting 60,000, they would have been billed the 10

18

percent additional for the extra 40,000 copy increment.

19

Q.

And that 10 percent is $17?

10:47 20

A.

10 percent of 170, if they used it as a half

Q.

So it's your theory that Wiley was giving you

23

these lower estimates to save $17 a photo; is that your

theory?

Well, I don't know what they would be saving per

Q.

I don't believe DRK Photo was involved that


I don't believe there were thousands.
So is this reference in paragraph 17 to

photographers or stock photo agencies other than DRK?


A.

It seems to me it could be because we weren't

involved with thousands of licenses to John Wiley & Sons.


Q.

So if it's referring to DRK, it's an

exaggeration, correct?
A.

This would be an exaggeration as to how it

affected us.

that correct?

It was not done.

Q.

Yes.

This declaration that was submitted to the

It may be more accurate to say that DRK holds

11

This all appeared, when I looked at it, it

Q.

Let's change gears, Mr. Krasemann, a little bit.

Let's talk just generally about what DRK does.


We know that DRK is a stock photo agency.

12
13

So when I read

Tell

me, first of all, how do photos get into DRK's collection?

14

A.

They're submitted to us by our photographers.

11:52 15

Q.

Can any photographer submit photos to you?

16

A.

For the most part, we quantify a photographer

17

when they approach us for representation.

18

photographers who we just kind of turn away or suggest

19

that maybe we're not the right match for them at this

11:53 20

time.
I thought you were speaking how photos get in.

21
22
23
24
11:53 25

thought you were talking about photographers that we sign.

understanding.

Q.

Generally, what type of arrangement does DRK have

with its photographers who it represents?

We are free to license their imagery and split it

permission to license their imagery at established rates

11:54 10
11

They've given us

and license as we see fit.


Q.

Generally, are your arrangements with your

12

photographers on an exclusive, nonexclusive or some other

13

basis?

14

A.

There's probably some variety in there.

11:54 15

Q.

Is there one type or the other that predominates?

16

A.

I would say the majority are on a nonexclusive

17

basis.

18

Q.

19
11:55 20

And I think we talked before that there really

have not been employees.

So there are no photographers

who are employed on staff of DRK; is that correct?

A.

We don't have any employed staff photographers.

Q.

So you don't have work-made-for-hire photos in

DRK photos isn't doing

work-for-hire.

With the photographers who are in the exclusive,

13

they are able to continue licensing their own photos even

14

though they're in DRK's collection; is that correct?

11:56 15

A.

Yeah.

The photographers that are nonexclusive

16

with us are free to license the photos that they have and

17

seek other representation to license the -- other

18

agencies, whatever.
They don't, obviously, have the photos that we

They would have the right to offer this picture

respect to a particular photo.

Did DRK register copyright for all the photos that are

I'm broadening it out:

involved in this particular arbitration case?


A.

Well, like we saw before, Stephen had submitted

12

the registration, my brother, on at least two pictures

13

that you pointed out with the registration, with the

14

certificate being returned to our address.

02:09 15

Q.

Aside from the ones that were registered by

16

Stephen, DRK undertook to fill out the applications, file

17

the applications on its own and receive the registrations;

18

is that correct?

19
02:10 20

A.

We filed hundreds of copyright applications using

that Ekol online filing system.

21

Q.

Why did you decide to get registrations?

22

A.

We have been urging photographers for years and

23

years, including my brother, to copyright their work so

24

they have some legal standing or some strength behind

02:10 25

their ownership, and it just wasn't happening and wasn't

there particular claims you had in mind that you wanted to

there seemed more exposure to abuse, people downloading

A.

I'm not sure what you mean by acquired claims.

We registered their images and obtained copyrights to

those images.
What is "acquired claims"?

Q.

Beyond registering their images, is it your

understanding -- we'll look at the documents later, but I

want to get what your understanding is of what rights or

other things DRK received from the photographers with

02:18 10
11

these assignments.
A.

My understanding, without seeing the form, was

12

that they've authorized us to register these images in our

13

name with the US copyright, become the copyright holder.

14

And the whole gist of it was to -- if we take any actions

02:19 15

against people -- I think it went on to explain that any

16

proceeds after deduction on this would be shared 50

17

percent between each of us.


So that was the gist of the form to me, is that

18
19
02:19 20
21

they authorize us to do the registrations and pursuing


issues that we might -- those registered images that we
licensed and we split the proceeds with them.
There's more on there as far as reassignment and

22
23
24
02:19 25

things like that.

A.

Such as?

Q.

Such as anything.

Do you have a recollection or

an understanding of what you obtained from the

photographers, if anything, beyond what you already

described?

A.

I believe we obtained copyright assignment which

allowed us to register the imagery in our name as the

copyright holder, which then we're the copyright holder to

02:20 10
11

enforce those copyrights.


Q.

Do the rights that were transferred to you revert

12

back or get reassigned back to the photographers at any

13

point?

14

A.

I believe they will eventually.

02:20 15

Q.

When do you believe they will?

16

A.

Well, it was upon completion of anything we've

17

got going on, enforcing the copyrights, and even at that

18

point, I assume there's a lot of photographers who won't

19

ever want them back because they have no -- I'm not sure

02:21 20

what their use for them would be, if an infringement can

21

only occur by the violation of the license and they're not

22

licensing those images.

23
24
02:21 25

Maybe they'll want them back eventually, but for


the most part, I think they'll just leave them in our camp
for as long as needed for us to pursue would-be

03:17 10

Q.

So I'm not sure I understood your answer.

How

exactly were these photos published?


A.

Just as the last registration work, they were

submitted to the public, to DRK Photo, offered for sale or

11

licensing, which we used as the day of first publication.

12

And then subsequently, they went into our system and were

13

offered to our clients.

14
03:18 15
16

Q.

So which photos were offered to customers in

March 1990?
A.

Again, I can tell you which photos are behind

17

these, but we don't have records dating back to 1990 of

18

all our submissions to the various publishers.

19
03:18 20

Q.

You don't know which photos were offered to which

DRK customer on any given date?

21

A.

We no longer have records from 1990.

22

Q.

So you no longer know which photos were offered

23
24
03:19 25

to which customers in March of 1990?


A.

If you look at it that way, I can't prove which

photos were offered to which customers.

Q.

So they were offered to DRK; is that correct?

When were they offered to DRK?

A.

In 1990, between the dates of March 15 and

December 15, 1990.

Whether they just sat in DRK's files unviewed by

Q.

Would you please take a look at the document that

has been marked as Exhibit D32, and as you do that, I just

want to make you aware that D32 is a two-page exhibit that

combines two copyright registration forms.


Is Exhibit D32 familiar to you?

6
7

A.

Yes, it is familiar to me.

Q.

Exhibit D32 is two registrations that DRK

9
04:14 10

obtained for Michael Fogden photographs?


A.

They do appear to be two of the copyright

11

certificates we obtained registering groups of Michael

12

Fogden's photographs.

14

Q.

Did you obtain more than two registrations for

Michael Fogden photographs?

04:14 15

I would assume we did.

16

Q.

I assume that with respect to the two

17

registrations that are Exhibit D32, that just as what we

18

looked at before, by looking at this exhibit, you cannot

19

tell me which particular photographs are covered by this,

04:14 20

whether those photographs were first published by DRK, and

21

whether the photographs were, in fact, distributed to DRK

22

customers on the dates indicated on Exhibit D32; is that

23

correct?

Q.

04:15

So to be clear, you're saying that you're using

the date that the photos were first given to you as the

date of first publication, as opposed to testifying that

as a matter of law, that's when they were first published?


A.

For date of first publication, we use the date in

which the photos were given to us by the photographers.

That was the most reliable records or way we had of doing

it.

picture, that it is acid drainage.

Q.

So if I understand your testimony, each image has

a unique image number in your system; is that correct?

I can just make sure it's John's

We try to catch errors that they might make.

They're not

Each image has a unique image number with the

exception of -- I don't know if this would qualify:

Say,

11

the very first picture is 848870.

12

picture that's been duped.

13

corresponding number 50,000 increments above that.

14

dupes would be 898870 not 848870, but typically I will

05:37 15

That indicates it's a

So the dupes would have a

license using the original number.


Q.

16

You're getting sort of to where I was going.

And

17

that is, is there some code beyond the fact that these are

18

in numerical order, this is image 001, the next one is

19

002?

05:38 25

Is there meaning to these digits to you in your

system?
A.

It does help us locate the images, see what

they're a picture of and who took it.


Q.

So does anything, looking at the first one,

848870, does anything in that number, just in the number


without looking at the description, tell you anything

about who the photographer was?


A.

No.

Not without going to the 800 binders and

looking those up in sequential numerical order.


Q.

So it's not like, for example -- I'm just making

this up -- that eight refers to nature and zero refers to

something else and then this number gives you some

indication?

A.

9
05:38 10

No, nothing like that.

I know some photographers

who have used codes and number of letters and numbers that
indicate maybe the national park.

They can tell by

11

looking at a number, at least, maybe where they took it or

12

when they took it or subject matter.

non-800 series, but we published it enough times that we

thought we better dupe it now or it may have come in duped

right away.

Q.

Are all of the 800 series duplicate?

A.

The 800's should be duplicates.

Q.

Looking --

A.

Not duplicates.

The 800 originals have at some

pointed been duplicated, whether it was from the day into

the collection or years later.

05:40 10

Q.

To make the record clear and see if I understand

11

it, if a photo in your collection bears the image number

12

that begins with the 800's, that is an image for which a

13

dupe has been made whether or not any given copying is the

14

dupe, but a dupe has been made?

05:40 15
16
17

A.

Yes.

Those that are 800's, DRK had duplicates

made of.
Q.

When a dupe is made, is a preexisting image

18

number that had been assigned to that photo when it was

19

not duped now replaced with an 800 series number?

05:41 20

A.

Yes, it is.

We have a convert database that's

21

fairly accurate where I try to enter the old number and

22

the new number.

23

I did that.

24
05:41 25

I don't know why and -- I don't know why

We needed to know -- I guess I do know that


because we needed to know the old number so I could go

DRK and John Gerlach, attached hereto as Exhibit I, John Gerlach caused to be licensed

Admit that at a time subsequent to the execution of Exhibit P, you have

deemed your Agency Agreement with Mr. Lankinen to be a non-exclusive agency or

license.

admission of fact. Subject to and without waiving the General Objections and specific

objections above, DRK denies this Request.

13

admits that Doug Perrine created image no. 1S165068, registered pursuant to Certificate

14

No. VAu530-479, and that DRK offered image no. 1S165068 for licensing between
