Phil is reaching out to our members and other associations to try to get the info you requested. We thought that a
conference call in the near future would be helpful to make sure we focus on needs. We could also discuss the

Would you and the team have time to discuss this week?

US-BASED MULTINATIONAL PHARMACEUTICAL AND
TOBACCO COMPANIES USE NEW TRADE DEAL TO
THREATEN PUBLIC HEALTH LEGISLATION

EMBARGOED UNTIL 12 NOON SUNDAY, 16 JANUARY 2011

US?based multinational pharmaceutical companies are lobbying for Trans-Pacific Partnership
Agreement (TPPA) provisions similar to those in the Australia?US Free Trade Agreement, which
would reduce cost-effective government regulatory control of pharmaceuticals, threatening equitable
access to medicines, according to an article in the Medical Journal QfAttsH?ali'a.

 

The TPPA is a multilateral free trade agreement (now at the final stages of negotiation) aimed at
increasing economic integration in the Asia?Pacific region.

Assoc Prof Thomas Faunce, ARC Future Fellow at the College ol? Law and College 01" Medicine.
Biology and the Environment at the Australian National University, and co?author elucidated the
likely content and impact of the upcoming TPPA negotiations and the policy implications they
would have on Australia and the region?s public health and medicines policy.

Prol?Faunce identified three issues that have been discussed during TPPA negotiations that would
have significant public health and medicine policy implications for Australia:

0 ways to approach regulatory coherence and transparency;

0 how to benefit multinational and smallwmedium enterprises(SMEs); and

0 multilateral investor~state dispute settlement.

Prof Faunce said that US?based multinational pharmaceutical companies were lobbying for TPPA
provisions, which would limit the development of Australian generic medicine enterprises and
restrict patient access to cheap. bioequivalent prescription drugs. He said that, US?base tobacco
companies were also lobbying t'or provisions that would impede public health legislation such as
plain packaging of cigarettes.

?Of particular concern is that proposed TPPA multilateral investor?state dispute settlement
procedures would allow US corporations, as well as those of other nations, to obtain damages
against Australian governments through international arbitral proceedings if their investments are
impeded by Australian public health and environment protection legislation." Prol? Faunce said.

?This will severely impede the capacity of our public health regulators to apply the precautionary
principle in relation to hazardous chemicals and products

?Rather than acceding to these demands Australia TPPA negotiators have a responsibility both to
this nation and our developing neighbours to promote regulatory coherence on comparative cost-
el?l?ectiveness research on new drugs, as well as stronger anti-monopoly and anti?fraud laws for the
Australian pharmaceutical sector.?

Tim 

I just got your phone message. Actually, the text is going up for cleared advisors now. You should probably get an email
notification shortly, and then the text should be posted before COB today. On the overall process, we are hoping to
share with the other TPP countries in advance. (Actually, we were hoping to share with them yesterday, but you know
how things go with this one). We will ask for comments from advisers by COB next Wednesday, and hen our plan is to
share with TPP partners so they can have some chance of consulting before discussing in Lima.

Also, are we confirmed for 2:30 Thursday?

Thanks

gathering any additional information that you may feel you nee from Fabiana, or from others, that you think might give

First, l'm grateful for Fabiana's interest in making sure we have the best possible information (and will tell her so directl

dear david

just a quick note to thank you for taking your evening "down" time to share

your perspective on the TPP with our dupont east asia country manager team.

it was both interesting and informative and, i hope, useful as
negotiations go forward. as I said on the phone, your openness to private
sector concerns and genuine willingness to listen to our input, is both
gratifying and exceptional.

again, my thanks and best wishes to you for continued success!

Info-Guide for Stakeholders' Forum (27 March 2011)

As part of the efforts by TPP parties to promote the exchange of views amongst stakeholders, a
Stakeholders' Forum has been scheduled for the afternoon of 27'" March. A stakeholder
programme schedule will be issued after registration closes.

Registratlon

2) Registration is required for all stakeholders, and will take place from 7 - 18 March 2011. Due

(Attn: Cheryl Ng).
Name of organisation and representatives
- Contact details
- Synopsis of presentations
Relevance to the TPP Negotiations

List of Speakers

4) Due to capacity constraints, It may be necessary for the organisers to limit the number of
speakers at the Forum. Stakeholders will be informed of whether they are invited to speak at the
stakeholder Forum by 21 March 2011. In the event of overwhelming response, the organisers?
decision will be final.

llnternal note to CNS: in View of the consensus among the cm to restrict stakeholder involvement to
the half-day programme on 27 March 2011 (Sunday), we can only accommodate a limited number of
stakeholders. If there are many stakeholders expressing interest to participate during the Singapore
round, Singapore will have to pre-select stakeholders. If Parties have stakeholders to
recommend, please flag it the Singapore Virtual Secretariat for consideration by 18 March 2011.

The full list of stakeholders will be furnished to all Parties (through the Virtual Secretariat) by 22
March 2011,]

Access to Stakeholder Forum

 

5} All participants will be issued stakeholder passes, and are requested to wear these passes
during the event. Only Individuals with the passes will be allowed entry.

6) Delegates from all TPP Parties will be Invited to attend the stakeholder event at their own
discretion.

Access to Negotiation Venue

7) Stakeholders will be allowed to access the negotiation venue, nor to observe

8) Trespassers will be evicted from the negotiation venue.

Beguest for meeting with negotiating Parties

9) Any request to meet with the negotiating Parties should he made directly with the relevant

Parties or through the Singapore Virtual Secretariat (Wong Choo Sin: wong choo sin@mti.gov.sal.

However, due to the tight negotiating schedule planned for the 6 th responses to stakeholder
requests will be at the discretion of individual TPP Parties.

[Internal note to CNS: The Singapore Virtual Secretariat will forward such requests to the relevant
parties, either through each countries? virtual secretariat, or through the chapter chain]

Administrative Advice

10) As a general rule, public demonstrations and processions are not allowed in Singapore
without a permit from the Singapore Police Force, due to their propensity for law and order
problems. The Singapore Police Force takes a serious view against activities which disrupt public
order and peace. Offenders may face prosecution.

The Alliance for Healthcare Competitiveness will be visiting Demetrius on Wednesday. We didn't have an ask,
so I sent this around last week. This is still a dra?. but my sense is that this will be our ask after we get
through the who we are presentation. (Demetrios heard this a couple of years ago at SF when we were just

starting, the group.)

I think at this point ifwe just receiVCd some positive Feedback, the AHCers would leave satil?isf ied. So far, this
group seems to be more process than substance.

Lunch is still on offer.

Dear Ralph.
Thank you very much! I spoke with Kaisumata san this week regarding the TPP Presentation.

The likely venue ?will be an international meeting auditorium in the Diet Office Building.
1

00175

 

They are expecting roughly 100 Diet members. to attend. but they do not know exactly how many wilt be there yet. They
will let us know as we get closer.

Katsurnata san recommended that the presentation he '20 minutes. to allow for 40 minutes of QIA and discussion.
We have arranged for simultaneous translation from Simul.

Here are the key points that Katsumata san woutd like your remarks to cover:

1. What is What does it mean for Asia?

2. Why is Japan's participation essential?

3. Some people in Japan have said that agriculture will be sacrificed. but that Japan will not really gain very much in
return. How should we think about this?

4. Does the US really want Japan in 

5. Some people in Japan say that the reason Japan Is not competitive is not because of tariffs but rather because of
exchange rates. What will change if tariffs are lowered (meaning, how will lowering tariffs increase competit iveness)?

6. What is the merit for Japan in joining How is success defined?

The event is entirely off the record.

i think the slides that you have drafted track well with these points.

I have read the invitation to the event. which was sent out by Tarutoko ash and Katsumata san. It is very good the text
describes you as a true expert on the subject. having spent many years at USTR and working Closely (supervising) key
officials who are currently still there. (The flyer was written and sent by the Diet members based on the bio we provided to

them (they did not show it to me first. which is fine. It is welt?composed.)

It may be better to not use the AdvaMed template. except towards the end when you make the point regarding advanced
medical technology as an example.

The template brands the text as Advalvled points. but I think it may be better to have them framed as your own
observations, based on your long experience negotiating trade agreements as a former senior US trade official. Then
towards the end you can link into some observations from the perspective of the advanced medical technology industry.
which you currently represent as EVP of AdvaMed or a flow similar to that.

It may be good to find a handshake graphic that is visualt even this one appears that the hand on the left is reaching
from above to the hand on the right. which is positioned lower. Since there is a perception among doubters in
Japan that the US may get the upper hand via TPP. I think an even handsh ake may be best I will look for one.

just returned from Tokyo this morning (am sending this email from the car heading home). Saturday. and will be here In
DC for the next two weeks (can meet or speak via phone at any time). We can set up a ore-trip briefing based on your
schedule if you would like.

Please have a good weekend!

Sincerely yours. Andy

Checked with some of the folks here, and they asked us if you could give us a better sense of the following --

(1) Who would be sent from Croplife?

(2) How much time you need?

(3) Any technology requirements?

(4) When would you want to deliver the presentation our suggestion would be Monday, December 6, Tuesday
December 7, or Wednesday, December 8 as it would dovetail with the IP meetings we?ll be having.

Please let me know, and we'll see If we can make this happen.

Thanks again for coming by with the team earlier this Week to discuss the challenges your industry is facing in various
markets with respect to pricing and reimbursement. As mentioned, it was a great meeting, and in addition, for the
reasons below, quite timely.



 

Hopefully a lot of this is "off -the-shelf", but if we could ask for this input by end of next Week, the sooner the better
really, that would be of great value to us. Maybe even a matrix summarizing the key issues.



 

The sky is pretty wide open, and We have of course our models, but your assistance and creative thinking on this in the
next week or 50 would be great as we consider our options and approaches going forward .

Jared.
