14 AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSES AND STATEMENTS
15 91. CyberSponse was incorporated in or around February 2012 in Nevada.
16 92. CyberSponse operates in Scottsdale, Arizona since inception and in Arlington, VA
17 since July 2016.

18 93. CyberSponse has spent significant time and financial investment developing its
19 unique software platform, its business plan, and business practices which provide software and

20 professional services that allow businesses and governmental agencies to respond and remediate

21 cyber, physical, and corporate threats through automation and orchestration.

22 94. In March 2014, CyberSponse began interviewing Arizona law firms to represent
23 the Company in its Intellectual Property matters. CyberSponse met extensively with Snell &

24 Wilmer, PLLC (Snell) Plaintiffs current counsel on a number of occasions to discuss its

25 provisional patents and IP portfolio. Through the course of this process, certain confidential and

26
8
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 9 of 26

1 proprietary information was shared with Snell to forge a professional and working relationship.

2 This information is believed and alleged to have been subject to an attorney-client privilege

3 under prevailing Arizona law, which the Snell lawyers should have been fully aware of, and

4 sensitive to. Snell expressed a strong interest in working with CyberSponse due to the latters

5 expertise in the Cyber Security field, its incident response platform, and market potential. The

6 Snell lawyers were intrigued with the business model of CyberSponse and how it operated and

7 spent a good deal of time trying to understand the business and business methodology of the
8 Company.

9 95. Snell expressed that it was very interested in building its cyber security law
10 practice, inviting CyberSponse to participate on discussion panels at Arizona technology

11 conferences and advising CyberSponse on its intellectual property. CyberSponse had this

12 strategic and confidential dialogue with more than thirteen attorneys at Snell. In addition to the

13 firms advice concerning its IP strategy, a confidential and privileged product roadmap,
14 CyberSponses business plan, strategy and other confidential communications were shared in the

15 spirit of an attorney-client relationship.

16 96. On or around March 10, 2014, CyberSponse met with Snell again to discuss, inter
17 alia, its product roadmap and business goals for the year and other business objectives.

18 97. On or around April 3, 2014, and after numerous emails and phone calls,
19 CyberSponse had a phone call with a Snell attorney to discuss the upcoming Invest Southwest

20 event, CyberSponses upcoming IP Roadmap, business plan, and the possibility of engaging

21 Snell on various matters, including its business, and government contracts. Again, in the course

22 of these confidential communications, information was shared with these lawyers, with the firm

23 belief that it would not be shared with others, particularly current or future competitors. At no

24 time did the Snell lawyers communicate to Defendants that they represented either Plaintiff or

25 any person affiliated or associated in any way with it or any predecessor in interest.

26
9
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 10 of 26

1 98. On or around April 22, 2014, CyberSponse and Snell continued engaging in
2 discussions about a potential business partnership and synergies between the law firm and

3 CyberSponse in how each could assist the other as well as refer the other business, through

4 CyberSponses cyber security platform.

5 99. On or around May 9, 2014, two additional Snell attorneys came onsite to
6 CyberSponses facilities to discuss these synergies. Additionally, during these discussions, the

7 other thirteen other lawyers at Snell were made privy to the ongoing communication, and
8 confidential information involving the development and formation of CyberSponses

9 technology, business goals, business plan, business strategy and methods between their existing

10 and potential client bases.

11 100. At this particular meeting referenced above, Snell was further provided a detailed
12 and confidential product demonstration and shown the confidential and proprietary functionality

13 of the platform technology. Each of the attendees believed there might be opportunities to
14 participate in joint presentations and seminars, as each firm played a critical role in the cyber

15 security incident response process managing the legal requirements on breach notification laws.

16 101. In the summer of 2014, CyberSponse was advised that it should partner with a
17 Professional Services organization to provide installation services to its customers, effectively

18 allowing CyberSponse to focus on building and maintaining its cutting-edge technology, rather

19 than on a services-based business model.

20 102. Based on this advice, and towards this purpose, CyberSponse was made aware of
21 Phoenix Data Security, Inc. (Phoenix Data Security), a small professional services cyber

22 security company in the Phoenix-Metro area.

23 103. CyberSponse CEO, Joseph Loomis (Loomis), then learned of Phoenix Data
24 Securitys CEO, Cody Cornell (Cornell), through LinkedIn.com.

25 104. On June 26, 2014, Loomis sent Cornell a direct message via LinkedIn, attached
26
10
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 11 of 26

1 hereto as Exhibit A stating:

2
Cody,
3
Seems we know a lot of the same people and since Phoenix is a
4 small town, figured why not ask to connect. Would like to learn
more on what youre up to and see about getting together to talk
5 shop. Have some interesting stories to share.
6
Joe
7 105. On June 26, 2014, Cornell replied and stated:
8
Joe,
9
Sounds good. Im going to be on the road until the 21st of July,
10 but we should plan some time to sit down and talk. By the looks
of things, we would have a lot to talk about.
11

12 Thanks,
Cody
13
106. At this time, Swimlane was unknown to CyberSponse, as it had not been a
14
registered or incorporated entity at the time, nor in existence until August 6, 2014
15
(Incorporation Date).
16
107. Defendants recently determined that almost 1 month after Loomis reached out, on
17
July 21, 2014, Cornell acquired the domain name Swimlane.com. Defendants were not aware of
18
this acquisition at that time. The Swimlane.com acquisition date is attached hereto as Exhibit L.
19
108. The last message between Loomis and Cornell occurred on August 5, 2014, as
20
Cornell requested a lunch meeting, coincidently one day before Swimlanes Incorporation Date.
21
Defendants were not aware of Swimlanes incorporation, only learning about it in January,
22
2015.
23
109. Loomis did not meet Cornell for lunch and instead and had no further
24
communications for the remainder of 2014.
25
110. In 2015, there were only four other known businesses in the same cyber security
26
11
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 12 of 26

1 incident response technology space, which included Resilient Systems (Massachusetts),

2 Hexadite (Israel), CSG Invotas (Colorado), and CyberSponse (Arizona).

3 111. During the week of January 26, 2015, CyberSponse learned that a new competitor
4 had just come into existence, named Swimlane, LLC located in Tempe, Arizona, and

5 coincidentally it was owned by the same Cornell and his partner Brian Kafenbaum

6 (Kafenbaum). Cornell and Kafenbaum are the CEO and COO of Swimlane, respectively.

7 112. On or around January 29, 2015, CyberSponse also learned, and without disclosure
8 to CyberSponse, that Snell was now representing Swimlane, LLC, another alarming concern.

9 113. Snell has taken the position that CyberSponse was not a Prospective Client under
10 Arizona Rule of Professional Conduct 1.18.

11 114. On January 28, 2015, Loomis sent Cornell an email advising that he was aware of
12 Swimlane and that CyberSponses in-house counsel was closely tracking the related issues and

13 concerns raised about how this company suddenly formed and was ostensibly competing with
14 CyberSponse given the foregoing concerns.

15 115. After some discussions via email and SMS, CyberSponse and Swimlane agreed to
16 meet face-to-face on February 26, 2015, in an attempt to resolve the concerns brought to light by
17 using a common law firm, as well as a common business consultant named Tom Fulcher that

18 was previously working with CyberSponse.

19 116. The meeting took place at a neutral location and included Cornell (Swimlane,
20 CEO/Phoenix Data Security, CEO), Kafenbaum (Swimlane, COO/Phoenix Data Security,

21 COO), Loomis (CyberSponse, CEO), Tom Zender (CyberSponse, CBO), and Eric Dickson

22 (CyberSponse, CFO/COO).

23 117. At the meeting, CyberSponse asked Swimlane if it had searched or was aware of
24 CyberSponses patent applications. Swimlane responded it that it was not aware of any filings.

25 118. During the meeting, the parties also spoke about how it would be possible to
26
12
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 13 of 26

1 resolve this issue in that the IP surrounding the CyberSponse platform was already under file

2 with the USPTO and how the Swimlane platform appeared out of nowhere to be incredibly

3 similar to the CyberSponse platform. The Defendants requested that Swimlane offer some

4 reasonable explanation as to how Swimlane suddenly appeared to have been able to develop a

5 virtually identical product to CyberSponse in such a short time frame, and that it was located

6 just a few miles away. After no explanation had been provided, nor how the two individuals

7 from Swimlane came up with the idea or methodology to accomplish it, particularly given their
8 lack of any background in product development or technology, Cornell and Kafenbaum

9 attempted to convince CyberSponse that the market opportunity was large enough for both

10 companies and that there was enough room for competitors. CyberSponse representatives

11 responded that the coincidences of building an extremely similar product raised a lot of red flags

12 for two individuals with no former product development experience and more alarmingly

13 because the law firm representing Swimlane was the same firm that worked with CyberSponse
14 over the course of three months. This conclusion was fair and reasonable deductive reasoning

15 under the circumstances and given the lack of any enlightening detail provided by Cornell or

16 Kafenbaum.
17 119. At the conclusion of the meeting, and while there was no resolution in sight at the
18 time, Cornell stated that the parties should work on coming up with partnership terms and

19 resolve these issues. As a practical matter, this was at least worth considering and pursuing

20 under the circumstances rather than litigation. However, it does not appear that either Cornell or

21 Kafenbaum or their company had any real interest in following through.

22 120. On March 4, 2015, Cornell attended and presented at Venture Madness (formally
23 Invest Southwest in which CyberSponse presented two years prior with business advisor Tom

24 Fulcher), which was an innovative startup competition hosted in Arizona.

25 121. During Cornells public presentation, one of the Venture Madness judges asked
26
13
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 14 of 26

1 who Swimlanes competitors were.

2 122. Cornell initially attempted to avoid answering the question by stating that various
3 legacy systems were and that nothing currently existed in the market as a competitor.

4 123. After another question regarding competitors was raised, Cornell admitted that
5 CyberSponse is also one of our competitors, and that the two companies were looking to

6 create a partnership together.

7 124. After Cornells Venture Madness presentation, CyberSponse logically reached out
8 to follow up with Cornell's multiple statements of intended partnership, both privately and

9 publicly. Cornell then chose to ignore all these communication attempts made by CyberSponse

10 to move toward some form of resolution to the various and alarming issues in regards to the

11 formation of Swimlane.

12 125. Over the course of the next three months, Swimlane continued to choose to ignore
13 all amicable efforts to resolve these concerns expressed by CyberSponse, or to discuss the
14 partnership possibility of resolution, only escalating the frustrations of the Defendants.

15 CyberSponse then sought the assistance of common business connections to determine how

16 Swimlane had obtained a copy of the CyberSponse platform and to explain why their platform
17 and functionality was nearly identical to the then current version of the CyberSponse platform, a

18 copy of this evidence is attached hereto as Exhibit B.

19 126. Swimlane elected to then move its entire team and headquarters from Tempe,
20 Arizona to Boulder, Colorado, presumably to escape the scrutiny of CyberSponse and from

21 being forced to answer questions raised by the local business investor community about the

22 origins of its business model and technology.

23 127. Following the Swimlane relocation out of Arizona and during the summer of
24 2015, CyberSponse entered into a Proof of Concept (POC) to provide its platform technology

25 and services to a Fortune 1000, publicly traded retailer (Potential Customer 1).

26
14
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 15 of 26

1 128. For this potential customer, CyberSponse invested more than $25,000 in personnel
2 resources, and for technology features requested along with related travel expenses.

3 129. During the POC process, senior management asked how Potential Customer 1 had
4 learned of CyberSponse, and it stated that it saw CyberSponse at a previous conference, and

5 liked the technology offering, including its novel concept and innovative ideas. During

6 discussions over the month-long free trial period for Potential Customer 1, the retailer asked if

7 CyberSponse had heard of a company called Swimlane. CyberSponse responded that it knew of
8 Swimlane. Potential Customer 1 then asked if CyberSponse had any patents on its proprietary

9 platform and information related to such patentable ideas and stated: in the event that

10 [CyberSponse] has any [patents], to please forward the details asap so that the retailers VP

11 could be advised of this important information.

12 130. On July 12, 2015, CyberSponse provided a letter to Customer 1, attached hereto as
13 Exhibit C, which stated as follows:
14
[Name Redacted],
15
Thank you again for taking the time to talk with me last week on
16 the status of getting CyberSponses POC deployed and tested
within [Potential Customer 1]s Systems and Technology group
17 and our recent news about U.S. Patent Application No.
14/216,570, titled Real-time Deployment of Incident Response
18
Roadmap. After our conversation, I wanted to follow up with
19 our outside patent counsel, A. J. Moss and Lucius Lockwood, at
Squire Patton Boggs, to obtain additional information as you
20 requested to further determine the factual patents status and
ensure that you are receiving the most up to date and accurate
21 information.
22
As I stated last week, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office
23 (USPTO) recently issued CyberSponse a Notice of Allowance.
CyberSponse has paid the issuance fee and is waiting on the
24 USPTO to formally issue this patent in the next two to four
weeks. Squire has informed me there is absolutely no action an
25 outside 3rd party can take to prevent the patent from being issued
26
15
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 16 of 26

to CyberSponse.
1

2 To be clear, this does not mean the patent is free from all
potential attacks, any patent can be challenged if the challenger
3 has enough funds and time to do so. To plan and prepare for such
potential actions, our legal teams have completed substantial
4 preparatory work in anticipation of any challenge to this patent.
Secondly, any challenger also must overcome a very high
5
standard before the USPTO or court of law, a process that can
6 take years and also be very costly. . . .

7 Attached is a copy of the Patent for your files. I will inform you
as soon [sic] the USPTO issues the patent, including assigning
8 CyberSponse our patent number. Please do not interpret this
communication or any communicative weve had as an
9
indication that we are considering or pursuing patent litigation
10 with potential infringers, thats a decision yet to be determined
because our focus is customer success and growth. If you have
11 any questions, please let me know as I know that Chris is look
[sic] forward to meeting with you and your team on Friday.
12

13 131. On July 31, 2015, Potential Customer 1 notified CyberSponse that it was not
14 chosen for their Cybersecurity Workflow Project. No reasons were given.

15 132. In August 2015, Potential Customer 1 communicated directly with CyberSponse


16 and informed its management that the selected cybersecurity vendor was also not Swimlane but
17 a vendor that had integrations built into their platform, leading CyberSponse to believe it was

18 CSG Invotas that had won the project.

19 133. In or around June 2016, CyberSponse learned that Potential Customer 1


20 misrepresented who it had selected as its cyber security vendor, and had in fact chosen

21 Swimlane for the Cybersecurity Workflow Project. This obviously caused further frustration as

22 to why a Fortune 1000 would misrepresent who won the contact and what Swimlane could have

23 stated to a Fortune 1000 company to obtain the business over CyberSponse or why a publicly

24 traded company would misrepresent facts to CyberSponse. This brought obvious and legitimate

25 concerns to CyberSponse in that Swimlane was possibly misrepresenting the facts about

26
16
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 17 of 26

1 CyberSponse and its Intellectual Property and trade secrets concerns. At the time, CyberSponse

2 in good faith decided to ignore the ongoing Swimlane dispute, hoping that Swimlane would

3 come forward in an amicable way to resolve its concerns so that the parties could go their

4 separate ways.

5 134. In or around early 2015, CyberSponse was contacted by the United States
6 Department of Justice about the potential use of the CyberSponse platform for their cyber

7 security needs.
8 135. CyberSponse entered into a three month Proof of Concept with the Department
9 of Justice and was in final discussions on pricing for the technology. After providing its pricing

10 and quote for the technology, CyberSponse learned for the first time that Swimlane was also

11 offering a nearly identical platform as CyberSponse but at a deeply discounted price to the

12 Department of Justice. At the conclusion of the Proof of Concept, Swimlane was selected as the

13 cybersecurity vendor for the Department of Justice and CyberSponse decided again to ignore the
14 ongoing Swimlane dispute and focus on building its own business.

15 136. Later the next year, on or around June 9, 2016, CyberSponse participated in a
16 phone call with a current Department of Justice manager and learned that Swimlanes product
17 had failed to perform as promised and their product crashed on almost a daily basis.

18 CyberSponse also learned that when the Department of Justice was looking at the two platforms,

19 the manager said: One, I was shocked at how much Swimlane and CyberSponse look alike, and

20 it underscored what you said shocking how alike they look. Having learned these facts from

21 the Department of Justice and knowing that no other competitor in the industry had a strikingly

22 similar product, CyberSponse in good faith believed that Swimlane had engaged in unethical

23 acts through its management and development team, and had somehow obtained its confidential

24 and proprietary information so as to unfairly compete in the marketplace. When CyberSponse

25 considered that Swimlanes technology was nearly identical in screen views, offering near

26
17
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 18 of 26

1 identical features and functionalities, it raised serious and valid concerns. In addition to these

2 issues, CyberSponse considered that the two companies also had the same common business

3 advisors, and/or the possibility that a disgruntled employee may have been enticed to provide

4 confidential information to Swimlane in violation of executed secrecy and confidentiality

5 agreements. There was more than a reasonable belief that something untoward and wrongful

6 occurred during the formation and origin of Swimlane and the marketplace and potential

7 customers were being mislead.


8 137. In or around late 2015, CyberSponse was in communication with a publicly traded
9 Internet Service Provider (Potential Customer 2). During the course of the engagement, the

10 opportunity stalled due to timing and budget constraints that were outside the control of either

11 party. Then in the fall of 2016, the management of Potential Customer 2 witnessed a

12 presentation of CyberSponses CEO and asked the CyberSponse sales team to reach out to

13 discuss using the CyberSponse technology for their needs. After working with Potential
14 Customer 2, CyberSponse learned that Swimlane was then also in discussions with Potential

15 Customer 2. During this engagement, there were rumors circulating in the industry regarding

16 issues between Swimlane and that CyberSponse was a bully and had sent a Cease & Desist
17 Letter to others. Potential Customer 2 asked CyberSponse about Swimlanes history with the

18 Department of Justice and for an introduction. CyberSponse had learned that Swimlane was

19 representing that the DOJ was its customer but was withholding from the marketplace that the

20 DOJ had in fact cancelled its contract due to product performance issues.

21 138. After learning the information presented herein and attempting to resolve the
22 issues but with little to no cooperation or response by the Plaintiff, on or around July 22, 2016,

23 CyberSponse, through outside counsel and with no other choice, sent Swimlane a Cease &

24 Desist Letter. The strategy here was to influence Swimlane under legal advice, to meet and

25 amicably resolve or explain their side of the story so that CyberSponse in good faith could put

26
18
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 19 of 26

1 an end to the dispute. This Cease and Desist letter is attached hereto as Exhibit D.

2 139. Following the sending of the Cease & Desist letter to Swimlane, CyberSponse was
3 conducting business as usual. In the course of their business, most if not all customer contracts

4 require disclosure of any outstanding or ongoing dispute in regards to the validity of the

5 intellectual property of the product being licensed to that customer. Pursuant to this obligation to

6 be truthful in disclosure, in one instance, Potential Customer 2 was provided some of the

7 historical facts and shown the unanswered Cease & Desist Letter sent to Swimlane months prior.
8 CyberSponse assured the management of Potential Customer 2 that CyberSponse was seeking to

9 find an amicable resolution and in no way looking to harm or cause any issues with Swimlanes

10 business.

11 140. Swimlane did not respond to the July 22, 2016, letter until November 22, 2016,
12 four months later where they asked for more explicit detail of the allegations contained herein,

13 while at the same time providing nothing in return. CyberSponse believes that respected industry
14 leaders advised Swimlane to resolve the matter amicably. However, Swimlane continued to

15 reject requests for face-to-face meetings to do so or provide any information to resolve this

16 matter, at times, claiming their attorneys had advised against it.


17 141. Then, on or around November 29, 2016, Loomis and Cornell exchanged emails,
18 attached hereto as Exhibit E, about resolution, and set a time to meet for lunch on December 12,

19 2016, in Scottsdale, Arizona. This meeting was more specifically set to discuss potential

20 settlement outcomes and resolution of the issues contained herein.

21 142. On or around December 11, 2016, Cornell abruptly canceled the lunch meeting
22 and indicated that he would not be able to travel to Scottsdale, Arizona the next day, while

23 Loomis had already traveled to Arizona.

24 143. On or around December 12, 2016, Loomis attempted again to get Cornell to meet
25 with him to resolve this matter, but Cornell again declined to meet in person. Loomis then said

26
19
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 20 of 26

1 that if Cornell had a legitimate reason to why he was not able to meet, that Loomis would be

2 open to reschedule. Cornell never responded. Loomis then responded that if Cornell was not

3 willing to be transparent and show good faith that it would be best to have legal counsel work

4 out a resolution. This e-mail chain is attached hereto and incorporated by reference as Exhibit

5 F.

6 144. On or around December 14, 2016, out of frustration with Cornells bad faith
7 actions, Loomis reached out again to attempt to resolve matters, this time via email to
8 Kafenbaum and provided him Loomis mobile number. As a result, the two spoke over the

9 phone for more than an hour. During this call, Loomis indicated that he simply wanted to meet

10 face to face with Cornell and resolve these issues in discussion, rather than wasting further time

11 and resources. In the discussion, Loomis also learned that Cornell had never even told

12 Kafenbaum about the prior communications that Cornell and Loomis had while Cornell operated

13 Phoenix Data Security. Kafenbaum said he first learned of CyberSponse through a mutual
14 friend, much later, and not through Cornell. Loomis explained that Cornell must have hid that

15 from him (Kafenbaum) and that he should also be concerned.

16 145. As a result of the amicable phone discussion, Kafenbaum stated that he would
17 speak with Cornell, and arrange a face-to-face meeting for Loomis and Cornell to resolve this

18 matter.

19 146. Kafenbaum further indicated that Swimlane was not at fault, but he was unable to
20 produce any evidence to CyberSponse indicating as much or answer simple questions to how

21 they came up with the idea or explain how their product looked the same as CyberSponses. To

22 date, Swimlane has still not provided CyberSponse any evidence to support such a claim of

23 innocence, only vague assurances that the entire dispute is a bunch of coincidences and nothing

24 is what it seems.

25 147. On or around December 18, 2016, Loomis emailed Kafenbaum, attached hereto as
26
20
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 21 of 26

1 Exhibit G, again trying to find a resolution or obtain evidence to find the truth, by stating:

2
Brian,
3
I didn't hear from you. I also do not have your mobile. Let me
4 know if you are of the same mindset to meet and resolve. You
said on our call you would feel the same way I do if you were in
5 my position, but for some reason I cannot get you to help me see
your position.
6

7 Remember the story I told you from my past, truly helpful


advice. Please know, I am not on a witch hunt, you and Cody
8 avoid being transparent or amicable at any costs. I have no
hidden agenda here, do you?
9
148. On or around December 18, 2016, Loomis and David Amsler (Amsler), an
10
investor of Swimlane, further exchanged emails with regard to the same issues. Loomis intended
11
to discuss the Cease & Desist letter and to respectfully request some assistance to get Swimlane
12
to meet face-to-face and resolve these issues.
13
149. On or around December 19, 2016, Loomis and Amsler spoke on the phone about
14
the positions of each party. During the phone call, both parties agreed that litigation of these
15
disputes was not in the best interest of either party and that it was Amslers recommendation to
16
not file any litigation, as it would create a lose-lose situation for both companies. Loomis trusted
17
Amslers advice and agreed that filing a complaint would not be in the best interest of either
18
party, while Amsler agreed that he would get Cornell to meet with Loomis to find an amicable
19
resolution.
20
150. On December 21, 2016, Kafenbaum responded to Loomis December 19 email,
21
attached hereto as Exhibit H, wherein Kafenbaum stated:
22
We will meet, but a face to face as you wanted is difficult to plan
23
through the holidays.
24
Conf call?

1 151. Loomis then replied via email, attached hereto as Exhibit H, with:
2
Lets meet next week, then no more holiday excuses. Its a short
3 flight. If I was a customer, youd both be on a flight tomorrow.

4 If you dont want to meet, you dont want to resolve this. I am


not being unreasonable here Brian.
5
152. On or around December 22, 2016, another phone call occurred between Loomis,
6
Amsler, and Ross Meyer, General Counsel of CyberSponse.
7
153. During this phone call, the parties indicated again that litigation would not be in
8
the best interests of either party and that a meeting should take place to resolve these disputes.
9
Loomis offered to travel to Florida to meet with Amsler face-to-face if that would help resolve
10
the matter. Amsler stated that he would speak to Cornell again.
11
154. On December 31, 2016, it was announced that Amsler led another major
12
investment round in Swimlane.
13
155. After attempting to meet face-to-face to resolve these issues, more than eight
14
different times since receiving Swimlanes November letter, CyberSponse asked its legal
15
counsel to prepare a response to the Swimlane letter in response to the CyberSponse Cease &
16
Desist Letter.
17
156. On or around February 13, 2017, 8:13 AM (Pacific Time), while Loomis was
18
attending an important cybersecurity conference (RSA), he emailed Amsler, attached hereto as
19
Exhibit I, stating:
20
Are you attending? Like to sit down with you if you are
21
available. Like to find a resolution here vs. let this spiral, I'm
22 sorry it's come to this, I believe we can work something out but I
need to see these guys show some good faith.
23
157. To date, Amsler has not responded.
24
158. On or around February 13, 2017, 8:24 AM (Pacific Time), CyberSponse, through
25
outside counsel, responded to Swimlanes letter, approximately two months after receipt, thus
26
22
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 23 of 26

1 providing requested evidence showing Swimlanes nearly identical GUI clone of the
2 CyberSponse Platform. This letter is attached hereto as Exhibit J.

3 159. Also on or around February 13, 2017, at 8:20 AM (Pacific Time), unbeknownst to
4 Defendants, and without prior notice, Swimlane, through the same Snell firm, filed for litigation

5 with this Court, against CyberSponse. It is CyberSponses belief that Swimlane filed this action

6 in response to Loomiss email to Amsler and their unwillingness to resolve this dispute

7 amicably. Swimlane also named Loomis and even his wife personally as a defendant, who had
8 not participated in any of these matters whatsoever causing unnecessary stress, embarrassment,

9 and humiliation.

10 160. On or around February 13, 2017, 1:16 PM (Pacific Time), Loomis emailed
11 Amsler, attached hereto as Exhibit K, after learning of the Complaint filed before this Court.

12
Dave,
13
Against your advice, since it was your advice to me, Swimlane
14 filed a complaint. I thought we were going to try to resolve this
as I showed all the evidence? I emailed you if you were at RSA,
15 and I also emailed previously.
16
I'm sorry but once we subpoena all their customers and show
17 details, isn't this going to be the destruction that you said wasn't
worth it? I thought so, it's clear as day to our team they copied us.
18 We sent the letter of the evidence over this morning too, I guess
4 minutes after their complaint was filed, it surely looked
19 planned while I was hoping to see Cody as the show.
20
What happened to you trying to help us (did you think I was
21 making this up, I wasn't), I guess it's full on nuclear war now. I
do not believe you mislead me in your advice, I know you are
22 solid guy, but I'm concerned this was a bad move for the
industry, just like you said.
23

24 I'm happy to take a call, you know I've been nothing but
reasonable to resolve this matter but every attempt has been
25 ignored or diverted by Swimlane.

26
23
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 24 of 26

1 161. The week of February 13, 2017, was an important one to both companies, as it
2 began one of the industrys largest conferences, RSA, in San Francisco, California, which the

3 two companies respectively attend, meet with prospective customers and present their

4 technologies. The timing of the filing of the Complaint appears to have been intended for an

5 ulterior purpose, i.e. solely to damage and harm CyberSponse. While CyberSponse was engaged

6 in explaining its position and working out an amicable resolution, Plaintiff was instead intending

7 to sue CyberSponse by preparing a Complaint to be made public during this important event.
8 162. Defendants have always had legitimate and significant concerns with regard to
9 Phoenix Data Security and Swimlanes background as cyber security professionals in unfairly

10 obtaining information and competing with CyberSponse. CyberSponse has elected to share this

11 information rather than litigate the dispute. CyberSponse sought evidence of how Plaintiff came

12 to obtain a product with strikingly similar features and capabilities within a short amount of time

13 and with a staff a fraction of that size of CyberSponse. CyberSponse remains also seriously
14 concerned because the same lawyers who had obtained confidential information from

15 CyberSponse, now represented the Plaintiff in this Complaint. Rather than address these

16 concerns with evidence to remove doubt as to these issues, Plaintiff instead filed this lawsuit.
17 163. CyberSponse has attempted in good faith to resolve this dispute via face-to-face
18 meetings, emails, phone calls and legal letters as it has elected to grow its business legitimately

19 without trying to harm either business through costly litigation.

20 164. CyberSponse has identified individuals who may have obtained and copied
21 CyberSponses protected trade secrets.

22 165. Defendants do not file a counterclaim at this time, but Defendants reserve their
23 right to file an amended answer and/or a counterclaim based on the discovery process if it in fact

24 proves that confidential and proprietary information that constitutes trade secrets, copyright,

25 trademark or other infringements have been used to unfairly compete with CyberSponse.

26
24
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 25 of 26

1 Defendants also reserve the right to file any other appropriate counterclaim based on the

2 discovery in this matter.

3 166. In answering, Defendants do not waive their claim that Plaintiffs counsel should
4 be disqualified due to a conflict of interest in previously representing Defendants.

5 167. Defendants specifically deny any and all claims made in the Complaint that were
6 not specifically admitted herein.

7 168. Defendants place Plaintiff on notice that they preserve the following affirmative
8 defenses pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P 8(c): contributory negligence; estoppel; fraud; illegality;

9 laches; license; statute of frauds; statute of limitations; and waiver.

10 169. Defendants also place Plaintiff on notice that it may raise the following possible
11 affirmative defenses which, through subsequent discovery, may be supported by the facts: lack

12 of jurisdiction over the subject matter; lack of jurisdiction over the person; failure to join

13 necessary and indispensable parties pursuant to Rule 19; failure to state a claim; insufficient
14 service of process; estoppel; set-off; recoupment; failure to mitigate damages; avoidable

15 consequences; and lack of an agency relationship. Defendants plan to raise other defenses,

16 based on the outcome of discovery, including but not limited to, the fact that the alleged
17 defamatory statements are true.

18 PRAYERS FOR RELIEF


19 WHEREFORE, having answered Plaintiffs Complaint, Defendants pray for judgment
20 of the Court as follows:

21 A. That Plaintiffs Complaint be dismissed and that Plaintiff take nothing thereby;
22 B. For trial of this matter to a jury;
23 C. That Defendants be awarded their reasonable attorneys fees pursuant to A.R.S.
24 12-341.01 or 12-349 and their taxable court costs incurred herein pursuant to
25 A.R.S. 12-342; and,
26
25
Case 2:17-cv-00438-DJH Document 13 Filed 03/22/17 Page 26 of 26

2 circumstances.

Cody,

In the past, Ive tried more than 5 times to contact you (emails, texts) to resolve this, all with no response. If you truly want
to avoid litigation (as stated in your last letter), then we should have a discussion in person in AZ the week of Dec 13
(make it happen on your end), i.e. face to face or this door closes. This is the only window of time that will be open given
my schedule.

Secondly, based on your counsels letter, the language and tone only motivates our Company to move in another direction
than resolving our dispute in this manner. Regardless of what your counsel demands or threatens, we are not going to
turn over our evidence prior to filing our complaint. If your counsel wants to pick a fight or make threats, they certainly are
setting you up for nuclear destruction with a costly tuition expense too. Maybe you dont know, but attorneys get paid to
fight, no matter what they say. Take it from someone thats paid millions in legal fees, its all a game.

PS. If you continue to tell folks negative things about me (just heard more last week), things will get personal pretty quick.
Do we really want to call all your customers as witnesses and employees to flush out the facts? I already have a list of
folks that have agreed to testify.

Ball is in your court whether you want to resolve this

Joe

Joe,

I've got a couple things that came up that are going to keep me from making it to Phoenix tomorrow. Still would like the
opportunity to discuss, even if it requires a change in venue/location.

This week is pretty shot schedule wise, and I'm not sure what your end of year schedule looks like, but we could still
target before end of year.

Are you going to be in the office the next few weeks?

Thanks,
Cody

Cody,

I understand the point youre trying to make but unfortunately from my view it comes down to priori!es and its clear
you dont consider this a priority. In my previously email, I made it clear that this was the only !me that I could meet
with you given I am not based in Arizona, its a short "ight for you, and your equity partner is also located in AZ. I been
in business long enough to know what a stall tac!c is.

Since our #rst Cease & Desist le$er and no!ce of pending li!ga!on in 2015, you have avoided numerous a$empts to
resolve this dispute and right now youre just doing the same thing again. Secondly, your counsels most recent
response to our second C&D le$er (a$ached for reference) said that wanted to avoid li!ga!on. I am !red of how you
avoid our good faith a$empts and then say false nega!ve statements about me. Wouldnt it be nice if they all knew
the truth? Lets just let the lawyers deal with it now, I think thats the best route since I do not have good faith you
have any interest in resolving this dispute amicably.

I'd appreciate the chance to discuss, but as I'm sure you know, things come up. If you genuinely would like to discuss, a
single meeting reschedule should not be enough to keep that from happening, we both are extremely busy personally and
professionally.

Let's try to schedule some time, if you don't want to discuss...well I obviously can't make you.

Thanks,

Cody

Provide me your reason you cannot come to Phoenix. That will show me if
you're being transparent and acting in good faith.

Secondly, a phone call is not appropriate, this something that gets


resolved in person or we just go other routes. I want to get to know the
real Cody.. I am tired of the games, the disappearing acts, the ignoring
of communication, the defamation (like what you told Nehemiah Security),
the drama and the nervous acts. I really just hope you understand the
implications of such decisions you are making.

This will be my last communication. Tomorrow is my only window and you're


a 50 min flight, your decision. I will meet you in Scottsdale Airpark,
just you and I (take an uber if you have to)

Joe

Given I can't be in Phoenix tomorrow, and you feel there is an opportunity


to discuss, beyond simply turning to a legal path, what is your
recommendation to resolve? I'd assume you had something in mind when you
asked to meet.

I'm still open to meeting, even if I means a change in venue or a phone


call, but happy to keep this dialog open and going.

Thanks,
Cody

You didnt answer my ques!on Cody, your inability to be transparent and upfront is going to be your downfall.

I also wouldnt reschedule a mee!ng that is a priority, so I disagree with your perspec!ve.

If you think missing 1 day spending 2 hours with me and mee!ng with your partner is too much to ask, then like I said,
you do what you think is best.

As for reschedule, I have no con"dence that you will follow through. For now, lets just let the lawyers deal with it. I
have tried to meet or talk to you for a year Cody, so lets stop with the poker game.

Joe,

As I've mentioned repeatedly, we are happy to meet in person, and I'll look at tomorrow, but as I mentioned, this week is
full getting fuller. Be it a fifty minute or four hour flight, as I'm sure you know, a flight monopolizes the entire day, and
much like you, I have limited windows of available time. I'm sure a rescheduled meeting is not an anomaly in your life.

In regards to getting the chance to talk, I hope that you do get the chance to know me, both of us having military
backgrounds, ETs none the less, business owners and security professionals for the last couple decades, I'd assume we
have a lot in common. I truly believe there is a lot of opportunity in the space and that rising tides, can raise all ships.

If tomorrow doesn't work, the DC metro area might be an option depending on your calendar and mine.

Thanks,

Cody

resolve. You said on our call you would feel the same way I do if you were in my position, but for some
reason I cannot get you to help me see your position.

Remember the story I told you from my past, truely helpful advice. Please know, I am not on a witch hunt,
you and Cody avoid being transparent or amicable at any costs. I have no hidden agenda here, do you?

Dave,

Against your advice, since it was your advice to me, Swimlane !led a complaint. I thought we were going to
try to resolve this as I showed all the evidence? I emailed you if you were at RSA, and I also emailed
previously.

I'm sorry but once we subpoena all their customers and show details, isn't this going to be the destruction
that you said wasn't worth it? I thought so, it's clear as day to our team they copied us.

We sent the letter of the evidence over this morning too, I guess 4 minutes after their complaint was !led, it
surely looked planned while I was hoping to see Cody as the show.

What happened to you trying to help us (did you think I was making this up, I wasn't), I guess it's full on
nuclear war now. I do not believe you mislead me in your advice, I know you are solid guy, but I'm
concerned this was a bad move for the industry, just like you said.

I'm happy to take a call, you know I've been nothing but reasonable to resolve this matter but every attempt
has been ignored or diverted by Swimlane.

Joe
