`

`I, Joanne Diddle, hereby declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am employed by Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp. (“Merck”) as an
`
`Associate Specialist, Shared Services Human Resources. I joined Merck on April
`
`16, 1990, and began working in personnel records on October 1, 1993. Through
`
`my employment at Merck, I have personal knowledge of Merck’s recordkeeping
`
`policies with respect to HR personnel records.
`
`2.
`
`HR personnel files and records at Merck are currently managed
`
`digitally using either electronic systems. Prior to the implementation of a digital
`
`system in 2004, these records were kept and maintained in hardcopy paper form.
`
`Starting in or around approximately 2016, hardcopy paper records were scanned
`
`and entered into the new digital system.
`
`3.
`
`New Merck employees sign a document called Conditions of
`
`Employment (COE) as part of the onboarding process. The COE is collected by
`
`the company onboarding representative and then maintained in the HR personnel
`
`file of each employee.
`
`4.
`
`Attached as Appendix A to this declaration is a true and correct copy
`
`of the COE for Scott D. Edmondson signed September 1998.
`
`5.
`
`Attached as Appendix B to this declaration is a true and correct copy
`
`of the COE for Michael H. Fisher signed May 1963.

`
`of the COE for Russell R. Ferlita. The second page to Dr. Ferlita’s COE is
`
`missing, however, I believe this to be Dr. Ferlita’s COE because I located it in his
`
`HR personnel file.
`
`14. Based on Merck’s records, Dr. Ferlita began working at Merck on
`
`September 5, 2000, prior to the creation of the digital system currently used to
`

`

`manage HR personnel files and records. As such, Dr. Ferlita’s COE would have
`
`initially been kept in hardcopy paper form and later digitized in or after
`
`approximately 2016.
`
`15. Attached as Appendix K to this declaration is a true and correct copy
`
`of the Terms and Conditions of Employment document for Russell Ferlita signed
`
`August 2005. The Terms and Conditions of Employment document explains to a
`
`departing employee that certain provisions of the COE document they signed when
`
`they were hired apply beyond their termination.
