    PFIZERPAC OURVOICEINTHE POLITICALPROCESS Pfizer PAC & Corporate Political Contributions Report 2007 – 2008 Cycle Learn which candidates we supported in your community. Pfizer PAC ~ Our Voice in the Political Process A Message from Rich Bagger, Chairman, Pfizer PAC Dear Colleagues: What a year 2008 turned out to be in the political world! It also proved to be full of opportunity for Pfizer. We renewed our commitment and expanded our work to engage key stakeholders and forge new partnerships—from patients to physicians to payers and elected officials. This political contributions disclosure report includes a list of candidates and political committees the Pfizer PAC supported during the 2007-2008 election cycle. I am honored and pleased to report that 2008 was another successful year for the Pfizer PAC. During the 2007-2008 election cycle, we raised $2.96M with a 16% employee PAC participation rate. We were able to support 2,090 candidates in all levels of government. Additionally, Pfizer PAC continued a bi-partisan distribution of funds—50 percent of these candidates supported were Republicans and 50 percent Democrats. I hope that you will take a few moments to review this report and see which candidates the Pfizer PAC supported in your state. This year, it will be more important than ever that we positively engage our elected officials in support of health reform that promotes innovation, expands access and improves quality. I am confident that a strong and healthy Pfizer PAC will once again lead the way on behalf of the patients we serve. Thank you for your support, Rich Bagger PFIZER PAC Our Voice in the Political Process What is a PAC? PAC stands for Political Action Committee.

Having a loved one lose the fight against this horrible disease was a painful experience, and as Governor, I have made it a priority to prevent others from having the same experience. Since I took office in 2001, our state’s cancer rates have declined significantly—thanks to the hard work and dedication of the Delaware Cancer Consortium and their partners throughout our state. As we embark on the next four-year plan, we will strive toward new goals to further reduce our cancer incidence and mortality rates in the First State. Already, we have seen our cancer incidence rate decrease four times as much as our nation’s rate, and our cancer death rate decline twice as much as the national average. Borrowing on those successes, we are expanding our outreach and identifying new preventive strategies, which will further strengthen our efforts to fight against cancer. We must remain focused and continue to seek out all available options for treatment and prevention, so we can look forward to a healthier future in the state of Delaware.
