Page 1 SANITIZED SUBMISSIONDisclosure of the information is expected to cause substantial harm to the competitive position of the Notifier. The

Notifier believes that disclosure of the information would cause substantial harm to its competitive position since it would enable competitors to develop the substance, or comparable substances, and to identify/exploit target mark opportunities, without the commitment of similarly significant resources. Disclosure of the information is expected to result in a material financial loss to the Notifier and a material financial gain to the Notifier’s competitors. Disclosure of the information would enable competitors to develop the substance or comparable substances, without the commitment of similarly significant resources, allowing competitors to provide products containing the notifiable substance, at lower market prices, and thereby realize a profit in much less time that could the Notifier. Furthermore, disclosure of the information would result in a material financial loss to the Notifier since disclose of this information would likely prompt competitors to attempt to seize a share of the market being served by the Notifier. Consequntly, disclosure of the information would put the Notifier at a competitive disadvantage in the market place.
