`
`DECLARATION OF CHARLESA. LEYES
`
`I, Charles A. Leyes, declare:
`
`bs
`
`I am overeighteen years of age and am competent totestify to the matters
`
`stated in this declaration. The statements made herein are based on mypersonal knowledge,
`
`except where stated, in which case the statements are based on information and belief.
`
`Z.
`
`I am an employee of RAI Services Company, a subsidiary of Reynolds
`
`American Inc. and an affiliate of Defendant R.J. Reynolds Vapor Company(“Reynolds”).
`
`I serve as Managing Counsel and have responsibility for certain patentlitigation matters
`
`within the Reynolds family of companies, including the above-captioned litigation.
`
`a
`
`I
`
`am aware of the implications of disclosing the confidential and
`
`competitively sensitive information produced in this matter.
`
`I am also familiar with
`
`

`
`Reynolds’s business and the sensitive nature of Reynolds’s confidential business
`
`information.
`
`4.
`
`I makethis declaration in support of Reynolds’s Motion to Seal Confidential
`
`Trial Exhibits and Trial Transcripts (“Motion”) in the above-captioned case.
`
`a;
`
`The confidential exhibits and expectedtrial testimony that Reynolds seeks to
`
`seal fall into the following categories: (a) confidential and proprietary information made
`
`available to FDA as part of the regulatory process, and Reynolds’s internal documents
`
`related to its confidential regulatory strategies: (b) CAD files and source code for the Vuse
`
`products; (c) agreements and related documents between Reynolds and non-parties Fontem
`
`and Nicoventures (and their affiliated entities); (d) technical documents from non-party
`
`suppliers: (e) financial forecasts, cost analyses, future business plans, including research
`
`and development, and historical financial data on the individual Vuse products; and (f)
`
`testimonyrelated to these categories.
`
`6.
`
`I am informed andbelieve that the Pre-Market Tobacco Product Applications
`
`(“PMTAs”) were submitted confidentially to FDA and that the agency maintains the
`
`confidentiality of the PMTAs to the extent the information contained in the PMTAsis
`
`exempt from public disclosure under federal
`
`law. The PMTAs contain confidential
`
`technical details and specifications for the four Vuse products.
`
`In addition to the product-
`
`related details,
`
`the structure and content of Reynolds’s PMTA submissions are also
`
`confidential and competitively sensitive, because they provide insight into Reynolds’s
`
`decisions and strategy regarding scientific content, tests, and data and the organization of
`
`

`

`Case 1:20-cv-00393-LO-TCB Document 1243-2 Filed 05/27/22 Page 4 of 51 PageID# 32431
`
`Case 1:20-cv-00393-LO-TCB Document 1243-2 Filed 05/27/22 Page 4 of 51 PagelD# 32431
`
`this information as provided in the PMTAs. Disclosure of the information contained in the
`
`PMTAswould cause substantial and irreparable harm to Reynolds’s competitive position
`
`by giving Reynolds’s competitors insight
`
`into Reynolds’s product designs, product
`
`formulations, regulatory strategy, marketing decisions, and business practices. Reynolds’s
`
`decisions regarding regulatory submissionsare held in strict confidence as disclosure could
`
`allow competitors to outmaneuver Reynolds in the regulatory process.
`
`7.
`
`Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a true and correct copy of Marketing Granted
`
`Orders from FDA dated October 12, 2021, covering the Vuse Solo power unit and Vuse
`
`replacement cartridge Original 4.8%. Reynolds was the first manufacturer to receive
`
`Marketing Granted Orders from FDA foran electronic nicotine delivery system (“ENDS”)
`
`product. FDA has since granted marketing authorization for tobacco-flavored Vuse Vibe
`
`and Vuse Ciro. Exhibit B is a true and correct copy of Marketing Granted Orders from
`
`FDA dated May12, 2022, covering the Vuse Vibe power unit and Vibe replacement tank
`
`Original 3.0% and Vuse Ciro power unit and Ciro replacement cartridge Original 1.5%,
`
`respectively.
`
`In issuing the Marketing Granted Orders to Reynolds, FDA determined,
`
`based on its review of Reynolds’s PMTAs, that permitting the marketing of these Vuse
`
`Solo, Vibe, and Ciro products is appropriate for the protection of the public health.
`
`Disclosure of Reynolds’s intellectual property, technical product details, and technical
`
`know-howdescribed in Reynolds’s PMTAs would give Reynolds’s competitors an unfair
`
`advantage by giving them insight
`
`into Reynolds’s confidential
`
`technical capabilities,
`
`product development, andtradesecrets, such as the e-liquid composition, without making
`

`
`the same investment in the developmentof their own products.
`
`8.
`
`I am informed and believe that other documents pertaining to Reynolds’s
`
`regulatory strategy, but not necessarily related to the Vuse PMTAs, remain confidential
`
`(RX-0784, RX-0785, RX-0966, RX-0835, RX-1163, RX-1725, PX-312 (slides 59-61),
`
`PX-314 (slides 40-45), PX-316, PX-317, PX-325, PX-515).
`
` Reynolds’s regulatory
`
`strategy is held in strict confidence as disclosure could allow competitors to outmaneuver
`
`Reynolds in the regulatory process.
`
`9.
`
`I aminformed and believe that the CAD files and source code for the Vuse
`
`products remain confidential and provide a level of technical detail regarding the Vuse
`
`products that are not attainable through a physical tear down of the products. For example.
`
`I am informed and believe that the CAD files reveal internal dimensions ofthe product.
`
`manufacturing tolerances, manufacturing notes, material compositions. version revision
`
`history, and design notes, among other highly confidential technical information, and that
`
`the source code provides the control algorithms for the Vuse products. Disclosure of the
`
`CAD files or source code of the Vuse products would give Reynolds’s competitors an
`
`unfair advantage by giving them insight into Reynolds’s confidential technical capabilities,
`
`product development, and trade secrets, without making the same investment
`
`in the
`
`developmentof their own products.
`
`10.
`
`Lam informed and believe that the agreement between Reynolds and Fontem
`
`(andtheir affiliated entities) concern the acquisition ofcertain intellectual property rights
`
`and that the parties agreed to treat the terms of the agreements as confidential.
`
`I am

`
`informedand believe that the exhibits related to the Fontem agreementeither recite terms
`
`from the agreement or discuss negotiation strategies regarding the agreement.
`
`I am
`
`informed and believe that the terms of Nicoventures Holdings Limited’s termination of the
`
`BAT-Reynolds Vapour Collaboration Agreement remain confidential.
`
`I am informed and
`
`believe that
`
`the BAT-Reynolds Vapour Collaboration Agreement concerned a cross-
`
`license ofcertain intellectual property rights. Disclosure of the terms of the agreement
`
`between Reynolds and Fontem(and their affiliated entities) and the related documents. or
`
`the BAT-Reynolds Vapour Collaboration Agreement termination, would disadvantage
`
`Reynoldsin future contract negotiations if its business and patent-licensing strategies were
`
`made available to the public.
`
`11.
`
`1 am informed and believe that
`
`the technical documents created by
`
`Reynolds’s
`
`suppliers who are not parties
`
`to the above-captioned matter
`
`remain
`
`confidential.
`
`I am informed and believe that the documents disclose detailed technical
`
`schematics, product cost analyses, and invoices. Disclosure of such information would put
`
`Reynolds at a competitive disadvantage. both with its current suppliers by jeopardizing the
`
`current relationship and with anyfuture potential suppliers while giving competitors non-
`
`public information regarding the technical details and cost details of the Vuse products.
`
`I
`
`am informed andbelievethat at least some ofthe third-party supplier documents are subject
`
`to contractual confidentiality obligations.
`

`
`I am informed and believe that
`
`the trial
`
`testimony of expert witnesses

`
`confidential information consisting offinancial projections, market forecasts, various costs
`
`analyses for Reynolds’s vapor products, financial data regarding the individual Vuse
`
`productlines, and Reynolds’s internal business decisions regarding future plans for product
`
`distribution and marketing. This information is not publicly known. Disclosure of such
`
`information would put Reynolds at a competitive and financial disadvantage by allowing
`
`competitors, suppliers, and other third parties access to financial data that could be used to
`
`undercut Reynolds in competitive purchasing and sales situations, as well as in preparing
`
`competitive sales, consumer research, marketing, product design, licensing strategies, and
`
`product distribution strategies. Disclosure of specific cost
`
`information and bills of
`
`materials will allow competitors and business partners to gain leverage against Reynolds
`
`in business and supply agreement negotiations. As just one example, Reynolds’s suppliers
`
`could use cost information to negotiate higher price terms. Information about Reynolds’s
`
`future business plans, including plans for its electronic nicotine delivery system products,
`
`could jeopardize relationships with wholesale and retail distributors and give competitors
`
`insight into Reynolds’s marketingstrategies.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoingis true and correct.
`
`Executed this 27th day of May, 2022.

`
`
`
`
`

`
`
`
`R.J. Reynolds Vapor Company
`

`
`Dear Dr. Williams:
`
`
`We completed review of your above-referenced PMTAs1 and are issuing marketing granted orders for
`
`
`the tobacco products identified in Appendix A.
`
`Based on our review of your PMTAs, we determined that permitting the marketing of the new
`tobacco products, as described in your applications and specified in Appendix A, is appropriate for
`
`
`the protection of the public health. It should be noted that our determination that the marketing of
`these products is APPH is based on the submitted microbial stability data2. The issuance of these
`
`marketing granted orders confirms that you have met the requirements of section 910(c) of the
`FD&C Act and authorizes marketing of your new tobacco products. Under the provisions of section
`
`910, you may introduce or deliver for introduction into interstate commerce the tobacco products,
`in accordance with the marketing order requirements outlined in these orders, including all
`
`appendices.
`
`
`The authority to market the new tobacco products under these orders is also contingent upon
`
`the conditions listed in these orders and subject to the requirements in the enclosed appendices.
`
`
`
`The requirements in these orders are intended to help ensure that the marketing of your products will
`continue to be appropriate for the protection of the public health, taking into account, among other
`factors, initiation among non-users, particularly youth. However, compliance with these requirements
`alone is not a guarantee that the marketing of the products will remain appropriate for the protection
`
`
`1 Premarket Tobacco Product Applications (PMTAs) submitted under section 910 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
`
` (FD&C Act)

` is acceptable and there are no other stability concerns, so the
`lack of stability data fo
` does not preclude an APPH finding for the subject products. If you would like FDA to
`evaluate additional microbial stability data for a longer period, submit this information in a post-market report.

`
`of the public health, particularly if, despite these measures, there is a significant uptake in youth
`initiation, for example. FDA will continue to monitor the marketing of your products.
`
`
`Based on our review of your PMTAs, the marketing restrictions in Appendix D are necessary to our
`conclusion that permitting the marketing of the new tobacco products is appropriate for the protection
`of the public health. Absent these restrictions, a marketing granted order for these applications could
`not issue consistent with the requirements of section 910(c) of the FD&C Act. Relatedly, we support
`certain aspects of your marketing plan, as described in your PMTAs, that are intended to help address
`the potential for youth use of your products. Specifically, you stated you intend to use the following
`measures to help reduce youth appeal of your marketing materials: “No testimonials by sports figures
`or celebrities or any person with special appeal to persons under 21 years of age; No person appearing
`in any advertising materials shall be under age 25 or be styled to look under age 25; Content shall not
`include characters, images, or themes designed to target youth; Content shall not be related to youth
`or youth-oriented activities; Content shall not suggest that use of R.J. Reynolds Vapor Company's
`("RJRV") products is essential to social prominence, distinction, success or sexual attraction, nor shall
`any content picture a person using any RJRV products in an exaggerated manner; and Content shall not
`depict persons participating in, or obviously just having participated in, a physical activity requiring
`stamina or athletic conditioning beyond that of normal recreation.” We encourage you to implement
`these measures because they are likely to help further mitigate risks to youth. We also recommend
`that you take additional steps to limit youth exposure to your print and point-of-sale advertising,
`
`including, for example, limiting advertising to print publications where 85% or more of the readership
`
`is 21 years of age or older and/or selecting publications that do not over-index for youth.
`
`Additionally, these orders are conditioned upon the products conforming with any applicable current
`or future tobacco product standards, unless specifically exempted under these orders or the product
`standard(s).
`
`
`Our finding that permitting the marketing of the new tobacco products is APPH does not mean FDA
`
`has “approved” the new tobacco products specified in Appendix A; therefore, you may not make any
`express or implied statement or representation in a label, labeling, or through the media or
`advertising, that the new tobacco products specified in Appendix A are approved by FDA (see Section
`
`
`301(tt) of the FD&C Act).
`
`
`The products subject to these marketing granted orders are subject to withdrawal or temporary
`
`suspension as described in section 910(d) of the FD&C Act.
`
`You may be eligible to submit a supplemental PMTA for modification(s)3 made to tobacco products
`that received marketing granted orders, by cross-referencing content in the PMTA and postmarket
`reports for the original tobacco products subject to this letter. Applicants that have questions about
`whether it would be appropriate to submit a supplemental PMTA for modification(s) they are seeking
`to implement should contact their Regulatory Health Project Manager (RHPM) within the Office of
`Science for more information.
`
`
`We remind you that all regulated tobacco products, including the tobacco products specified in
`Appendix A, are subject to the requirements of the FD&C Act and its implementing regulations.
`
`3 We note that any modifications made to a tobacco product would render it a new tobacco product that would be subject to
`the premarket review requirements under section 910 of the FD&C Act.

`
`These requirements include, but are not limited to, annual registration, listing of products, listing
`of ingredients, reporting of harmful and potentially harmful constituents, and packaging,
`
`
`labeling, and advertising requirements. It is your responsibility to ensure the tobacco products
`specified in Appendix A comply with all applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. FDA
`
`will monitor your compliance with all applicable statutes and regulations.
`
`
`In accordance with 40 CFR 1506.6, we will make your Environmental Assessment (EA) publicly
`available.
`
`If you discontinue the manufacture, preparation, compounding or processing for commercial
`
`distribution of these tobacco products and later decide to reintroduce the products into the market,
`
`please contact the Office of Science prior to reintroduction.
