Founded in 1872, CMA is the oldest trade association in the Western Hemisphere. CMA's approximately 185 member companies represent more than 90 percent ofthe productive capacity ofbasic industrial chemicals within the United States. The Association brings together member company experts to help resolve industry-wide public policy, technical and scientific prob lems. It communicates with government and the public on vital issues and administers research, studies and tests on a wide range ofchemical products and practices. PURPOSE As set forth under Article II of the Bylaws, the purpose of the Association shall be the promotion of the inter- ests of the chemical industry of the United States of America and Canada. OBJECTIVES The Board of Directors has stated the objectives of the .Association as follows: 1. To provide leadership to its members, and to represent them in presenting industry interests, views, and recommendations to the legislative and executive branches of the federal government and to the regulatory agencies (and to state and local governments when appropriate) on those matters which affect the industry's health, vigor, and well being. 2. To aid in developing and maintaining a dear understanding by the public of the chemical indus try and its contributions to the public welfare and to the advancement of our national, state, and local economies: and by appropriate, timely, and effective means to make known the contributions, accom plishments, and changing needs of the industry to the public broadly, and particularly to those initia tors of thought and action outside the industry whose opinions, decisions, and actions affect the industry. .3. To provide leadership and guidance and to under take programs to improve the chemical industry's service to the public by developing and promoting safe and clean practices in the manufacture, trans portation, handling, and use of chemicals and chemical products. 4. To conduct or sponsor legitimate activities designed to achieve worthwhile benefit or savings to the Association members where individual com pany efforts cannot effectively accomplish the desired result. 1 CMA 128861 CM MAEN,u0CPaiAC'O" jNec,S RESPONSIBLE CARE' A Public Commitment Public concerns about the impact of chemicals and hazardous wastes on human health and the environment continue to grow. Those concerns, whether real or perceived, have a direct impact on the chemical industry. Recognizing this, CMA's Board of Directors approved an initiative called "Responsible Care: A Public Commitment" in September 1988. The goal of Responsible Care is to continuously improve the chemical industry's performance in environmental, health and safety quality through the commitment and joint efforts of its individual member companies and of the Association. The initiative is designed to be responsive to public concerns. On October 30, 1988, CMA's membership adopted a Bylaw change mak ing participation in Responsible Care an obligation of CMA membership. The Responsible Care initiative has six program elements: 1) Guiding Principles A statement of the philosophy and commitment by each member company regarding environmental, health and safety responsibilities in the management of chemicals. 2) Codes of Management Practices Management goals which members are to make continuous good faith efforts to attain. 3) A Public Advisory Panel A cross-section of environmental, health and safety thought leaders to assist the industry in identifying and developing programs and actions that are responsive and are viewed as being responsive to public concerns. 4) Member Self-Evaluations Reports, measurements and other demonstrations of program implementation and progress toward improved environmental, health and safety performance in the responsible management of chemicals. 5) Executive Leadership Groups Periodic regional meetings of executive contacts to review Codes of Management Practices under development, discuss members' progress on existing codes and identify areas where assistance from the .Association or other companies is needed. 6) Obligation of Membership Bylaw obligation of member companies to ascribe to the Guiding Principles, participate in the development of the codes and programs, make good-faith efforts to implement the program elements of the Responsible Care initiative, and use the Responsible Care name and logo according to the Association's guidelines. ? CMA 128862 t GUIDING PRINCIPLES for RESPONSIBLE CARE /s a member of the Chemical Manufacturers Association, this company is committed to support a continuing effort to improve the industry's responsible management of chemicals. We pledge to manage our business according to these principles: 1. To recognize and respond to community concerns about chemicals and our operations. 2. To develop and produce chemicals that can be manufactured, transported, used and disposed of safely. 3. To make health, safety and environmental considerations a priority in our planning for all existing and new products and processes. 4. To report promptly to officials, employees, customers and the public, information on chemical-related health or environmental hazards and to recommend protective measures. 5. To counsel customers on the safe use, transportation and disposal of chemical products. 6. To operate our plants and facilities in a manner that protects the environment and the health and safety of our employees and the public. 7. To extend knowledge by conducting or supporting research on the health, safety and environmental effects of our products, processes and waste materials. 8. To work with others to resolve problems created by past handling and disposal of hazardous substances. 9. To participate with government and others in creating responsible laws, regulations and standards to safeguard the community, workplace and environment. 10. To promote the principles and practices of Responsible Care by sharing experiences and offering assistance to others who produce, handle, use, transport or dispose of chemicals. 3 CMA 128863 RESPONSIBLE CARE CODES OF MANAGEMENT PRACTICES Community Awareness and Emergency Response (CAER) On November 6,1989, CMA's Board of Directors adopted the first Responsible Care Code, Community Awareness and Emergency Response (CAER). The CAER Code is designed to help assure emergency preparedness and to foster community nght-to-know. CAER complements the chemical industry's commitment to safety by improved training programs, equipment, technologies, and procedures that reduce the likelihood of harm from accidents. The CAER Code also requires com panies to establish facility outreach programs that provide for a continuing dia logue with local citizens to respond to questions and concerns about health, safety and environmental issues. Pollution Prevention Code On April 6,1990, CMA's Board adopted the first of a two-part Code. The Pollu tion Prevention Code is designed to promote industry efforts to protect the envi ronment by generating less waste and reducing pollutant emissions and to pro mote sound industry management of the residues that remain after reduction efforts. The Pollution Prevention Code moves beyond government regulations and existing industry programs by setting three far-reaching goals: 1) ongoing, long term reductions in the amount of all contaminants and pollutants released to the air, water and land; 2) ongoing reductions in the amount of wastes generated at facilities: and 3) management of remaining wastes and releases. In September 1991. CMA's Board will consider additional Code practices that address: reviewing facility and contractor waste management practices; promoting groundwater pro tection; and evaluating prior operating and disposal practices at active or inactive facilities. Process Safety Code September 11,1990, marks CMA's Adoption of the Process Safety Code, a Code designed to prevent fires, explosions, and accidental chemical releases. The Process Safety Code identifies areas where companies can improve their safety per formance starting from process design through its continued operation and rou tine maintenance. The Code requires that company process safety programs include provisions for contractor employees. As in all Responsible Care Codes, community involvement plays an important role. Facilities are encouraged to lis ten to the concerns of the community and to consider those concerns when designing and implementing process safety systems. 4 CMA 128864 Distribution Code CMA's Board adopted the fourth Responsible Care Code. Distribution, on November 5, 1990. The Distribution Code is designed to reduce the risk that the transportation and storage of chemicals poses to the public, carriers, customers, contractor and company employees, and to the environment. The Distribution Code applies to all modes of transportation, to the shipment of all chemicals, and to distribution activities while chemicals are in transit between member compa nies and their suppliers and customers. Public involvement plays a role in the Dis tribution Code. The Code requires companies to establish a dialogue with the pub lic about concerns related to chemical distribution safety, actions taken by the industry and the company to improve distribution safety, and the effectiveness of emergency preparedness and emergency response assistance. Employee Health and Safety Code The Employee Health and Safety Code is scheduled for Board consideration in January 1992. The goal of the Code is to protect the health and safety of all per sons working on or visiting the worksite. In its current state, the Code encourages facilities to identify and assess hazards, maintain employee health, prevent unsafe acts and conditions, and communicate work practices and hazards. Product Stewardship Code The last Responsible Care Code, Product Stewardship is currently slated for CMA Board consideration in April 1992. The Product Stewardship Code requires companies to consider possible health, safety and environmental effects of new and existing products and to promote the safe and environmentally sound develop ment, manufacture, transport, use, and disposal of chemical products. This Code will affect nearly every segment of a company, including research and develop ment, manufacturing, health, safety and environment, distribution, and sales and marketing. It will mandate sharing health and safety information about the use, storage and disposal of products with customers, contractors, suppliers and distrib utors.

Section 8, authorize the Board of Directors or the Exec utive Committee to appoint such committees with such duties and functions as may from time to time be determined. The Bylaws further permit adoption of reg ulations for the conduct of committee affairs consistent with Association policy and subject to review and approval by the Board or Executive Committee as appropriate. To assist the committees in carrying out their functions consistent with the Bylaws, certain general principles applicable to the structure and operation of all committees are formalized in this Resolution. No committee or other group operating under CMA aus pices on CMA business shall deviate from these general principles, except where specifically authorized by the Executive Committee or the Board (or as determined to be necessary by the President or Secretary of the Asso ciation). As used in this Resolution, unless otherwise indi cated, the term "committee'' includes all CMA standing committees and such special committees as may be authorized from time to time, but does not include the Executive Committee or other committees composed of members of the Board. 1. Functional vs. Product Committees. The Association's committees shall continue to be orga nized primarily along functional rather than product lines. No committee having to do with a particular chemical product or product segment shall be formed without approval of the Board (or in an emergency by the President of the Association). Before agreeing to the establishment of any such committee, the Execu tive Committee shall determine whether the existing committees are adequate to handle the problem, and if not, whether the problem is of such general concern as to call for a new standing or special committee. All committees dealing with a particular product segment ot the industry and all other committees for a tempo rary purpose shall be deemed ad hoc Unless otherwise specified, the term of such committee shall be no Ms approved by the Board of Directors on March 12. 1962. and amended hi/ the Executive Committee on March 19. 1971 July 11. 1978. and June 3. 1981. longer than two years, subject to renewal for periods of one year or less by specific action of the Board. 2. Purposes. Each committee shall operate in accordance with PURPOSES setting forth its autho rized activities which have been approved by the Execu tive Committee. Each committee's PURPOSES shall be printed in the Association's annual Directory. 3. Organization. All committees shall, unless oth erwise authorized, be subject to the following rules in respect to their organization: (a) Members. Each committee normally shall be limited to not more than 15 members. The members shall be recommended by the Presi dent of the Association and appointed by the Exec utive Committee from qualified full time person nel of member companies interested in supporting such activities. To the maximum extent practica ble, appointments should be reasonably represen tative of all interested member companies, taking into account such factors as their size, geographi cal location, chemicals manufactured, and differ ences in the general nature of their operations. Normally, a member company may have only one representative on a given committee. Members of any necessary task groups shall be appointed by the committee on the same basis. The member ship of each committee should be comprised of persons well qualified in the committee's field of activity, normally having primary responsibilities within that field in their respective companies. Nomination for committee membership will be made by member company Executive Contacts and shall include name, company affiliation and persona] title, background relevant to committee's field of activity, and description of responsibilities within the company. A committee may nominate for consideration by the President or Executive Committee one or more associate members repre senting governmental bodies or scientific trade associations where such representation on a con tinuing basis will facilitate significantly the com mittee's programs. .Associate members shall have non-voting status and be subject to review and Executive Committee confirmation annually. 46 CMA 128906 (b) Task Groups. A committee may form such task groups as may be necessary to assist it in conducting its authorized activities. The Execu tive Committee shall be promptly advised of the formation of each such task group, and terms of reference in each case shall be established in writ ing by the parent committee subject to the review and approval by CMA staff and the President of the Association. (c) Officers. The chairman of each commit tee to serve as its chief executive officer, and a vice chairman, shall be appointed annually by the Executive Committee. The heads of task groups shall be appointed by the respective chairmen with committee approval (d) Rotation. The term of individual com mittee members shall be three years, one third of the membership being rotated annually. Initial committee membership terms will be scaled to accommodate this rotation. Upon the expiration of one term of committee membership, a waiting period of at least one year must lapse before a for mer member becomes eligible for reappointment. For this purpose, a term will be regarded as three years or any fraction thereof according to the members latest appointment to that committee. A committee member appointed chairman in the third year of his committee tenure may be appointed to a second year as chairman m which case he would serve in this post outside of the member limit on committee membership. A chairman cannot be extended in this manner for more than one additional year. (e) Staff Executive and Committee Secretary. Each committee shall have as its staff executive and secretary a full time CMA staff employee who shall function as the Board's admin istrative representative for such committee and as its chief administrative officer. It shall be the staff executive's duty and responsibility to see that all operations and proceedings of the committee, and of all its task groups, are conducted in full confor mity with their purposes and this Resolution, con sulting with General Counsel as necessary. On all procedural questions arising within any commit tee. including matters related to established .Asso ciation policy, the staff executive's decision shall be accepted, pending appropriate review, 4. Meetings. The business of each committee shall be conducted in executive sessions attended by its members and by others who have a leading role in matters to be considered at the particular meeting. Each task group meeting shall be an executive session of assigned members of the task group plus any mem bers of the parent committee who wish to be present. (a) Frequency. Each committee and task group will meet only as necessary to perform authorized committee business as determined by the chairman m consultation with the CMA staff. Meetings should not be held where subject matter can be adequately and practicably handled by cor respondence or telephone between the appropriate staff executive and individual members. (b) Location. To the extent practicable and in the absence of cogent reasons for being else where, all committee and task group meetings should be held in Washington, D.C., preferably at the Association's office. Other locations, such as major city airports, may be considered in instances when they would afford greater convenience and cost savings to attendees. (c) Agenda. Following consultation with the committee chairman, the staff executive assigned to each committee shall prepare written agenda prior to each of its meetings, which agenda shall be cleared in advance with General Counsel (d) Attendance of Staff Executive. No CMA committee meeting shall be held without the attendance of the staff executive assigned to it or other full time CMA staff employee. General Counsel or his designate should also attend any meeting whenever in his option the nature ot any subject on the agenda makes his presence desir able. (e) Minutes. The staff executive assigned as secretary to the committee shall keep accurate and complete minutes of all business transacted at each meeting, which are to be subject to review and approval by General Counsel. (f) Discussions Limited to Agenda. All substantive discussions at any CMA committee 47 CM A 128907 meeting are to be limited to authorized aspects of subjects on the agenda, except where additions to the agenda are specifically approved by the staff executive assigned to the committee. The staff executive's decision as to the propriety of any sub ject matter raised for discussion at any meeting shall be accepted, pending appropriate review. Any discussions or occurrences on the occasion of any meeting which are contrary to CMA's policies or rules and which have come to the staff executive's attention shall be reported promptly by him to his supervisor and to General Counsel. (g) Task Groups. The foregoing rules on meetings are applicable to all committees, task groups, and any other working groups, and any other working groups meeting under CMA aus pices, except that subparagraphs (c), (d), and (e) may be modified as indicated below in those cases where the group must meet in order to carry out a limited and specific written assignment from the parent committee and it is impractical for a staff executive to be present. In each such case, (i) the specific assignment must be set forth in the parent committee's minutes; (ii) the CMA staff executive assigned as secretary to the parent committee must be satisfied that the meeting in question is necessary and that the subject matter is not such as to require staff presence, (iii) the chairman of the group is to be responsible for carrying out the duties of the CMA staff executive, including partic ularly those specified in subparagraph If) above; and liv) the chairman must promptly make an accurate and complete written report to the parent committee and to the CMA staff executive as to everything occurring at such meeting. (h) General Meeting*. Apart from execu tive sessions, each committee shall schedule meet ings. at least two per year, to which designees of Executive Contacts whose companies are not rep resented in the membership of the committee shall be invited and other interested representa tives of member companies may attend. Such meetings shall be scheduled and notices issued amply in advance as often as appropriate to keep the designees and others informed about the com mittee's activities and provide opportunities for offering suggestions. 5. Policy Statements. Statements of Association policy or position developed by any CMA committee or other group for submission to the Congress or any gov ernmental or other external agency shall, unless other wise authorized, be transmitted by the President or other appropriate officer of the Association, 6. Reports. An account of the significant program activities of each committee shall appear in the Annual Report of the Association. The President and Executive Committee shall be kept informed on a current basis by communication from the chairman and the assigned staff executive. Presentation of reports to the Board shall be made as determined by the Executive Commit tee. 7 Periodic Reminder to Committee Members. A copy of this Resolution, as it may be amended from time to time, shall be furnished to each member of each CMA committee and task group thereof at the beginning of his duties as a member, and at least once a year thereatter so long as he remains a member. 48 CMA 128908 '-<FmiOAi vanufaCtjAFc RULES OF PROCEDURE FOR COMMITTEES* 1.

WANlJpAf TuRFBS ASSOC'A_,CN ANTITRUST GUIDE FOR CMA COMMITTEE MEMBERS The Chemical Manufacturers Association is a non-profit industry association representing about 180 chemical producers. Like other industry associations, CMA is composed of member companies (many of whom are competitors of one another) representatives of which serve on its Board of Directors and on its committees. Whenever competitors meet together problems can arise under the antitrust laws. If the meeting or other activities among competitors is conducted by or through a trade association, it is just as vulnerable to antitrust attack as if the same companies were meeting or acting together without the medium of an associa tion. Trade associations generally seek, quite properly, to promote understanding and cooperation among their members. But if this "cooperation" restrains competition, both the association and its members will be in trouble under the antitrust laws. Antitrust enforcement is being emphasized as never before. The number of criminal and civil antitrust actions is steadily increasing. Congress has greatly increased both criminal and civil antitrust penalties, has made important procedural changes, and has substantially increased the budgets for the .Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission, the two agencies charged with antitrust enforcement. The courts are expanding the scope of antitrust prohibitions which may especially affect trade association activities, and such associations are more frequently becoming the objects of FTC and Antitrust Division investigations. In view of these developments, increased awareness of the applications of the antitrust laws to association activities is essential. Like most reputable trade associations, CMA has objectives and programs that are well within the law. It also makes every effort to prevent possible antitrust abuses from arising. But a large responsibility also rests upon its member companies--and particularly upon their individual representatives who serve on CMA committees. This means that committee mem bers should know enough about this subject to be able, in their CMA work, to avoid actions or discussions that might raise antitrust questions. The main purpose of this guide is to help all committee members to recog nize what is, or might become, an "antitrust question." Some actions or discussions by members of a trade associations are clearly illegal; many others are wholly legal and proper; and there is a sizeable "grey area" or danger zone in between. This grey area between legal and illegal association activity is often vague and uncertain, and CMA's policy has always been to keep far away from the doubtful zones. The Association's aim is not only to avoid actual violations of the law--it wants to prevent even any appearance of violation which might invite suspicion or investigation on the part of the enforcement authori ties. To protect itself and its members in this respect, CMA has adopted and observes several basic policies; 1. It has well-defined, constructive objectives and programs which are designed to promote the overall interest of the industry and the public. 2. Its organizational structure consists primarily of standing committees with specific and limited func tional purposes; and activities concerned with pricing or marketing chemical products are scrupulously avoided, and limitations are also imposed of the subject matter and duration of "ad hoc" committees dealing with specific chemical products or product segments. 3. It maintains various procedural safeguards par ticularly those set forth in the "General Principles Applicable to the Structure and Operation of Commit tees" which appears in the Association's annual Direc tory. 4. It retains counsel to help insure full observance of the above policies and procedures, and to provide guidance and protective advice as to all CMA opera tions from an antitrust standpoint. 5. It has approved the issuance of this ".Antitrust Guide" to help member company representatives on CMA committees avoid problems under the antitrust laws. THE FEDERAL ANTITRUST LAWS Beginning in 1890, Congress has enacted a series of statutes which are known collectively as the federal antitrust laws. These laws are designed to promote and preserve our competitive private enterprise system by encouraging free and open competition in open mar kets. The federal antitrust laws give the force of law to the philosophy underlying our economic system, namely, that a free market in which supply and demand 51 CMA 128911 operate to determine the conditions and terms of pro duction, distribution and sale, and where each seller and a buyer deals independently, serves to achieve the most equitable allocation of high quality goods and ser vices at the lowest possible prices. The central core of federal antitrust legislation is formed by the Sherman Act (1890) and the Clayton and Federal Trade Commission Acts (1914). Most states have also enacted antitrust laws similar to the federal statutes but no attempt is made to discuss them in this brief manual. Similarly, there is no discussion herein of other areas of federal antitrust law (such as the Robinson-Patman Act and many parts of the Clayton Act) which may bear directly on the activities of individual companies but are usually not involved in association activities. The primary focus here is on horizontal con duct "i.e.". involving relationships between competi tors, rather than vertical relationships such as those between a company and its customers. Section 1 of the Sherman Act prohibits "con tracts", "combinations" or "conspiracies" in restraint of trade or commerce. These are terms of collective action or conduct by two or more persons, and they include agreements and understandings of all kinds, whether written or oral, formal or informal, which unduly restrain competition. Because of the collective nature of most trade associations activities, this section is the principal weapon used by the Department of Jus tice in antitrust suits against trade associations or their members. Such suits are usually based upon an alleged conspiracy or agreement among competitors to restrain trade. (The Federal Trade Commission also can, and does, challenge trade association activity which is alleged to lessen competition under Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act which prohibits "unfair methods of competition.") Although the language of the antitrust statutes is deliberately general in its coverage, prohibiting "(every) contract, combination or conspiracy in restraint of trade" and "unfair methods of competition," the courts have defined a number of specific activities as inherent ly unlawful, the so-called "per se" offenses (see "Prohib ited Activities," infr.). The legality of other activities is determined by the "rule of reason," i.e., whether the activity is ancillary to the achievement of a legitimate business objective and is no more restrictive of compe tition than necessary to achieve that objective. Although this necessarily involves difficult questions of interpretation, even here useful guidelines or antitrust compliance have evolved from the courts' decisions. The importance of obtaining legal counsel in any area of uncertainty cannot be overemphasized, for the sanc tions imposed for violations of the antitrust laws are severe. ANTITRUST ENFORCEMENT The federal antitrust laws are enforced by the Depart ment of Justice (Antitrust Division) and the Federal Trade Commission and frequently provide the basis for suits by private parties. All of the following penalties can be imposed for violations of antitrust laws. 1. IMPRISONMENT. Violations which are criminal offenses, including most prohibited collusive activities, are felonies. The Federal Sentencing Guide lines. which became effective in November, 1987, estab lish a minimum jail term of 4 to 10 months for first offenders. In addition, the minimum recommended sentence under the Guidelines is increased as the vol ume of commerce in question increases. For example, if the offense involved a volume of commerce greater than $50,000,000. the minimum sentence would be increased to 10 to 16 months. Prison sentences are increasingly common, and convicted felons may be denied citizenship, voting and other privileges. 2. FINES. Minimum fines of $20,000 for individ uals, and $100,000 for corporations, are required under the Sentencing Guidelines. However, the permissible range of fines for an individual is 4 to 10 percent of the volume of commerce; the range for an organization is from 20 to 50 percent of the volume of commerce affected. Assuming a corporation is found to have vio lated the antitrust laws, affecting $50,000,000 of com merce, the permissible fine would range from $10,000,000 to $25,000,000! An individual may not be reimbursed by his corporation for fines paid by him and fines are not deductible for income tax purposes. 52 CMA 128912 3. INJUNCTIVE COURT AND FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION ORDERS. Orders (injunctions) which prohibit future violations or activi ties can be imposed as a result of civil action brought by the Department of Justice, the Federal Trade Com mission, or private parties, with far-reaching conse quences. Such injunctions may contain sweeping pro hibitions which go well beyond the scope of the violations charged and prohibit conduct which is not itself considered contrary to the antitrust laws. Such orders can seriously limit freedom of corporate or asso ciation action, require burdensome and time consum ing reporting obligations, cause day-to-day activities to be supervised by a court or agency, and even require dissolution of a trade association. Violation of an injunctive order issued by a court can result in con tempt proceedings with attendant fines, while failure to comply with an injunction ("cease and desist order") issued by the Federal Trade Commission carries penal ties of up to $10,000 for each day the non-compliance continues. 4 TREBLE DAMAGES A sanction which has been applied with increasing frequency as private antitrust suits have rapidly increased in recent years is the "treble damage" provision of the antitrust laws which allows persons or businesses injured by an antitrust violation to recover three times the amount of actual damages sustained Such cases have resulted m hundreds of millions of dollars of damages being paid to private litigants. Thus, an antitrust violation could impair the financial resources of any corporation and significantly weaken its competitive position. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES As noted above, many antitrust violations - and particu larly those involving trade associations - result from concerted or collusive activity, that is, from an "agree ment" between or among competitors which result in a restraint of trade. An illegal agreement may be proved in a number of ways. It need not be written, and sel dom is. Rather, the term "agreement" in antitrust par lance may mean no more than knowing adherence to or a participation in a common scheme. Explicit promises, commitments, or assurances are not neces sary to establish a violation, nor must the parties actu ally carry out the agreement. (This definition of "agree ment" is assumed throughout.) Convictions for collusive activities can be based on a series of seemingly isolated facts which have been linked to present a chain of circumstantial evidence from which an agreement or conspiracy - a meeting of the minds - can be inferred: for example, identical price increases by competitors following shortly after a trade association meeting at which "business conditions" and the need of the industry for higher prices were dis cussed. For this reason it is important when participat ing in CMA committee work or other association activi ties, which involve contact with other members of the industry, to avoid doing or saying anything which might even give an appearance of agreement with oth ers in areas which may involve a lessening of competi tion. (a) AGREEMENTS INVOLVING PRICES. Pricing is the most sensitive subject under the antitrust laws. "Price" in this context includes all the elements of the terms of sale: sales prices, discounts, allowances, freight, credit terms, container deposits, and all other services or conditions integrally related to a sale. .Any agreement between competitors which fixes, stabilizes, maintains, bolsters, depresses, or tampers in any way with price is unlawful "per se," that is, the activity is indefensible and illegal without further analysis of its reasonableness, good intentions, arguable benefits to the public, or extenuating circumstances. In short there is no defense. "Price-fixing" encompasses not only agreements with competitors on a selling price. It may also include, for example, agreement to buy up surplus goods, to adhere to a formula for determining prices, to standardize discounts, to control raw material prices, and any other agreement which has the net result of affecting the price structure of a given product. More over, it is just as unlawful for competitors to agree on the prices at which they will offer to buy from their suppliers, as on those at which they sell. As previously noted, an agreement can be shown in a number ot ways. Thus, even the mere exchange of price lists between competitors serve as evidence of an illegal price-fixing agreement. The essential rule is that each seller must deter mine on its own the prices at which it purchases and 53 CMA 128913 iza yIAhNEmuPiCAaCl 'jRERS Abt*U iAtlON sells. To avoid inferences of agreement or collusion-- and there can be no exceptions--CMA members must not engage in any direct or indirect discussions with any competitors regarding prices, pricing policies, or any other marketing policy which may affect pricing. The following are a few examples of activities which have been found by courts to constitute evidence of ille gal price-fixing. 1 Some supermarket executives were held to have violated the Sherman Act on the basis of evidence which included a trade association meeting where one participant made remarks to the general effect that it was time to stop passing lower wholesale meat prices on to the consumers and keep some or it for them selves. After viewing this and other evidence in light of the article pricing practices, the court upheld a jury verdict that the attendees at the trade association meet ing had engaged in an illegal conspiracy to keep whole sale prices low and retail prices high. (The jury award ed plaintiffs a verdict for over 32 million dollars, plus the plaintiffs' attorneys' fees.) 2. In another case, the sales manager of the leading company in a market invited the sales managers of the other major companies in the market to a meeting at which he described a proposal for reclassifying distribu tors and changing discount schedules. No one present openly agreed to reclassify his distributors and change his discount schedules. Subsequent to the meeting, however, the leading company instituted the changes proposed at the meeting and the other companies, one by one, adopted the same distributor classifications and discount schedules. All of the companies and their sales managers were convicted of engaging in an unlawful conspiracy. The fact that all of the individual defendants were at the meeting, heard the discussion, and subsequently reclassified their distributors and changed their discount schedules, supported a jury finding that they had unlawfully conspired to fix prices. 3 Sales officials of corrugated cardboard box manu facturers in the Southeast followed a practice of occa sionally calling each other to determine quotes given on specific and current sales to identified customers. The Supreme Court held the practice illegal because it had the effect of stabilizing prices (i.e., it tended to limit price reductions and the range of price changes). The decision was reached in spite of an express finding that the calls did not result in an actual agreement on prices. Rather, each defendant, on receiving a request for pricing information, usually furnished the data with the expectation that reciprocal information would be furnished to him. This simple exchange of information was held to establish an unlawful combination conspir acy under the Sherman Act. (b) Agreement* to Control Production or Sales. Competitors may not agree to limit or control production or sales. Any limitations on output by direct or indirect agreement are illegal per se and can not be justified, even where the purpose is to preserve the industry or conserve natural resources. (c) Division of Territories and Allocation of Customers. Any agreement between competitors to divide or allocate either sales territories or cus tomers is unlawful per se. Exchanges of information with competitors relating to customers or territories can create the appearance such collusion or agreement and must be strictly avoided. Id) Refusals to Deal. Any agreement among competitors which results in a refusal to deal with sup pliers or other competitors - for example, a blacklist or boycott - is illegal per se. For this reason exchanges or information (e.g. credit information) concerning par ticular customers which might lead to parallel decision not to deal should be avoided. Application of Antitrust Laws to Trade Association Activities The valuable and proper activities of CMA and its com mittees can be accomplished effectively if participating members are alert to the prohibited types of behavior described above and react quickly when danger signals appear. Obviously, CMA activities should be conducted in such a way as to avoid any possible inference of agree ment among its members with respect to prices, con trolling production or sales, division of territories, or refusals to deal in any form whatsoever. Further guide lines are given here to highlight potential danger zones CMA 128914 to be avoided. When a danger zone appears, counsel should be consulted for specific guidance. In reviewing the following guidelines there are a few general points you should bear in mind: 1. As indicated above, an otherwise lawful act may become unlawful if done for an improper pur pose, or if it is part of a larger standardization pro gram might be justifiable considered by itself, but not if it is combined with other activities to facili tate the fixing of uniform prices. In other words, the courts may look at the cumulative effect of several activities - not at each one separately. 2. Good motives are not an excuse for doing things that are otherwise unlawful, either because they fall within one of the "per se" categories dis cussed previously or because they are more restrictive of competition than necessary to accomplish their legitimate objectives. Thus even though a product standardization program may be intended to increase competition by providing consumers with important information, it may nevertheless be found unlawful if conducted in a manner more restrictive than necessary to achieve its legitimate purpose. 3. An ostensibly lawful program or activity runs a greater risk of getting into vulnerable areas if conducted by a group of competitors making the same product. That is the main reason why CMA operates primarily through functional commit tees. and imposes limitations on the subject mat ter and duration of any "ad hoc" committees deal ing with matters concerning a specific chemical product or product segment. 4. As a member of a CMA committee, you and your company can be held responsible for any improper acts that may occur which you know about (or should know about), and if you fail to protest or disassociate yourself from them. Participation in CMA Committee Meetings All meetings of CMA committees must be conducted in strict compliance with the procedures set out in the 'General Principles Applicable to the Structure and Operations of Committees. '* These General Principles provide for agendas, attendance of staff representatives, and for the keeping of accurate and complete min utes--all of which are designed to avoid antitrust risks. If you participate in a CMA task group meeting held without a staff member being present (pursuant to the special circumstances set for in subparagraph 4(g) of the General Principles), be sure that the meeting complies with the requirements of that subparagraph 4(g) including an "accurate and complete written report... as to everything occurring at such meeting." Note: The attitude of enforcement personnel will be governed by what committee or task group members actually do, not by what is said in reports or minutes that may be incomplete or inaccurate. CMA committee members participating in activi ties involving advocacy before governmental entities should be familiar with and carefully observe the guide lines set out in the memorandum "General Principles and Guidelines for MCA Advocacy" dated May 14, 1975. In general, advocacy should be conducted in lawful ways and directed solely at efforts to influence that poli cy. It should not be used as a sham or as a means to affect competition directly and independently of what would be the effect of the government policy which is sought to be influenced. While committee agendas will have been cleared in advance with CMA counsel, it is the obligation of all committee members to make sure that their own par ticipation m committee meetings will not give rise to even an inference of antitrust wrongdoing. Thus, even when carrying out approved and legitimate activities members must be careful to avoid discussions or exchanges of information with their competitors on any subject relating to the "per se" restraints listed above since such discussions or information exchanges may give rise to inferences of agreement. As examples, you should avoid any discussion with competitors of the fol lowing: (a) Individual company prices, price changes, price differentials, mark-ups discounts allowances, credit terms, etc. (b) Individual company figures on costs, pro duction, capacity, inventories, sales, etc. * -Is approved by the Board of Directors on March 13. 1963. and amended by the Executive Committee on March 7.9, 19/1: July 11. 1978, and June 3, 1981. 55 CMA 128915 CHEMICAL MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION (c) Industry pricing policies, price levels, price changes, differentials, etc. (d) Changes in industry production, capacity, or inventories. (e) Transportation rates or rate policies of individual shipments or particular products, including basing point systems, zone prices, freight equalization, etc. Note: This was an alleged factor in the 1962 FTC charges against MCA (now CMA) in the TSP (trisodium phosphate) case. MCA denied the charges, but joined the producers in signing a consent order prohibiting the practices charged. Standardization of TSP contain ers was another principal factor in the TSP case: these charges pertained to an activity in 1939-1940 which has long since been abandoned. MCA denied that this activity was illegal, but joined the respondent TSP pro ducers in signing a consent order prohibiting the vari ous practices charged, in order to avoid costly and time consuming litigation. (f) Bids on contracts for particular products; procedures for responding to bid invitations. (g) Plans of individual companies concerning the design, production, distribution or marketing of particular products, including proposed territo ries or customers. (h) Matters relating to individual suppliers or customers that might have the effect of excluding them from any market. (1) Any matter relating to TSP as a specific product. Regardless of subject matter, you should not attend or tolerate any meeting with your competitors in connection with CMA business which has no agenda, or which is concerned with matters outside your com mittee's terms of reference, or which otherwise fails to conform with the procedures in the General Principles. Informal Gatherings It is important to avoid discussions of the above sub jects. not only at formal CMA or committee meetings, but also in connection with social or other gatherings on those occasions. If any improper discussion should start in your presence, you should protest: if the discus sion continues, you should promptly excuse yourself from the group and communicate your protest to the appropriate CMA staff manager. Even if you do not take part in any improper discussion, your presence without participation could still get you and your company into trouble. Any individuals who participate in such improper discussions, whether deliberately or inno cently, are doing their companies, and CMA, a real dis service, and subjecting themselves to possible liability. In case of doubt as to whether a particular subject may properly be discussed with your competitors, you should consult your own company counsel. Documents Care must be taken to avoid wording any written docu ments including reports or notes from committee meetings in a way that might be interpreted as indicat ing, contrary to fact, the existence of an antitrust viola tion. Every memorandum, letter or other document dealing with prices, competition, or the other danger areas specified in this guide should be written with the assumption that it will one day be examined for antitrust implications. An antitrust case may be based on documents which are in reality innocent or innocu ous but have been written in such a way as to create suspicion and require explanation. Such documents may include personal notes based on recollection, or taken at committee or other meetings, which record personal impressions rather than the facts of what tran spired. Conclusion It is hoped that this guide will help you to understand how the antitrust laws bear upon trade association activities, and to carry out your CMA work in full com pliance with these laws and with CMA policies. Again, please remember that this is a limited outline and is not intended to be a complete description of the appli cation of the antitrust laws for answers to specific prob lems, you should consult CMA counsel and your own company counsel. This is designed to be a layman's guide on how the antitrust laws apply to trade association activities, with particular reference to CMA committee work. It is written for both the guidance of those committee members who have no particular knowledge of this complicated subject, and to provide a useful reminder or "refresher course" for those who have had the benefit of antitrust advice from their own company counsel. 56 CMA 128916 CHgMJCAl MANUFACTURED ASSOCIATION OBLIGATIONS AND PROCEDURE FOR MEMBER DISSENT* The strength of an effective association in an advocacy role is its ability to identify issues of common concern to its members and to reach agreement on collective policy. When that agreement is reached, the Associa tion can then strongly advocate a unified industry posi tion. While the Association's objective is to strive for consensus on every issue, CMA recognizes that there may be cases, following the constructive sharing of diverse opinions, when individual members may ulti mately choose to dissent from a CMA position. If a member company intends to advocate publicly a position on an issue which it believes is not consistent with an existing CMA position, the company should first inform the Association, by letter to the President, stat ing the basis for its disagreement, and give the Associa tion a reasonable length of time to respond before pre senting its position to others outside the Association. Before external dissent takes place, thorough internal discussion should be conducted either to resolve or confirm identified differences. The Association has the responsibility of expeditiously reweighing its original position to determine whether it should be modified. To aid in this internal review, members who initiate this process of dissent should inform the Association of any parties to whom they have expressed a contrary position and what the nature of the dialogue was so that this information can be utilized in the process of reevaluat ing the Association's position. If the identified differences are not resolved, the .Association recognizes the right of the member compa ny to publicly pursue its own position. When presenting its position to others, the dissenting member company should make clear that it speaks for itself and not for the Association and the industry. Anyone can express to others outside the Association a CMA position, but only one designated by the Board or the President can repre sent that he speaks on behalf of CMA. Similar procedures should be followed in those cases where the Association does not have an existing position on an issue, but has begun the process of developing such a position. In those instances, the member company should inform the Association, by letter to the President, of its intent to present that posi tion to others. If possible, the member company should defer presenting its position to others until CMA has had a reasonable opportunity to review the company's position, identify any potential areas of significant con cern and attempt to reach an agreement on a CMA posi tion. The Association recognizes that in some cases the time for CMA review and action will be very limited. In the absence of a CMA position on an issue, a member company presenting its position to others should make it clear that it is speaking for itself and not the Associa tion. Ms approved by the Board ofDirectors on June 5, 1980, and amended by the Board on June 6,1985. 57 CMA 128917 CHEMICAL manupacturfrs ASSOCIATION CMA AND ADVOCACY* Advocacy means pleading or defending a cause, hence advocacy is implicit in CMA's representation of the chemical manufacturing industry, and should be con ducted forthrightly and forcefully, concentrating on matters which affect a number of its members or which broadly concern the chemical manufacturing industry even though not immediately affecting many members. To be beneficial, advocacy must be persuasive. Solid evidence and reasoned interpretation coupled with effective presentation are needed. Enlightened and progressive advocacy is directed to the common good rather than being merely self serving. Bearing in mind the pervasive significance of chemicals, it is vital that CMA advocacy so qualify. Advocacy on behalf of a collective industrial group must heed antitrust limitations. For this reason and because of the fact that certain chemicals compete with others in the marketplace for similar purposes, CMA normally limits its advocacy to matters having general applicability, as contrasted with those involving partic ular chemical substances or companies. If an important precedent-setting principle is involved, however, CMA may elect to advocate it regarding the principle alone. The foregoing precepts underlie CMA's advocacy role. Each member company should recognize this in no way diminishes its responsibility to protect its own interests, nor is intended to restrict independence in so doing.
