Including the $120 million that SAP paid Oracle for its attorney fees, the additional money would bring SAP's total penalties in the case to $1.63 billion.

In at the U.S. District Court in Oakland, California, Oracle said it is "routine" for the plaintiff in a copyright case to be awarded "prejudgment interest."

SAP disagreed. "We don't believe that Oracle is entitled to any additional compensation beyond the final judgment in this case," an SAP spokesman said. The company has also said it may appeal the jury's verdict.

Oracle sued SAP in 2007 after it discovered SAP's TomorrowNow subsidiary had been downloading software and support materials illegally from an Oracle website.

SAP didn't contest the infringement, and on Nov. 24 . The money was to cover the cost of a "hypothetical license," or the amount SAP would have had to pay if it had licensed the software legally.
