Kazunori Atobe Deposition (Wednesday, June 6, 2001 in Tokyo)
Q Do you know why the Investors Solution has not been
commercialized? A No.
Q You were aware as you worked on this project in 1998 that part of
DisclosureVision was going to be the Investors Solution, were you not? A I
was aware that it was one of the three solutions.
……
Q And you never asked anyone why aren't we working on Investors
Solution? A No.
Q And 2 years and 3 months after putting out a public brochure saying
that the Investors Solution was part of Fujitsu's, would be part of Fujitsu's
comprehensive package, you still don't
have an Investors Solution, do you? A That's right.
Q And you haven't even begun work on an Investors Solution, have
you? A I'm not sure.

Hideki Kamijo Deposition (Tuesday, June 5, 2001 in Tokyo)
Q Mr. Kamijo, is Fujitsu still promoting any of the products that you
mentioned here today? A No.
Q To ask you an obvious question, have there been any sales of anything
attributable to Investor Solution since DisclosureVision was conceived? A
No, there is not.
Q Does Fujitsu, Mr. Kamijo, have any current plans to develop products
that would fall under the Investor Solution component of DisclosureVision? A It
does not.

30B6 (Toru Shibata) Deposition (Tuesday, June 5, 2001 in Tokyo)
Q Okay. And there are no numbers
indicated by IR business or investors business, is that correct? The only line which has numbers is Digital
Disclosure? A True, there are numbers
only on this Digital Disclosure. It's
not that there are no numbers for the other two but that the numbers are
zero.
Q And did you consider the 15 billion yen estimate also to be a bad
joke? A Well, I believe it is a number that is not achievable
……
Q And you believed that at the time that it was released to the public,
didn't you? A In March of 1999 I considered that number as one to
emphasize the release, and as so often customarily observed in Japan.
Q Well, as section manager
responsible for DisclosureVision do you believe that there is a need to be
honest with the public regarding your products? A That is not necessary
in Japan.
