So eight trademark advisers, also based in Vevey, advise one – and the workload involved in managing it. But when or more strategic business units on the protection of strategic it comes to finding the best solutions to protect these trademarks, designs and copyrights, while one adviser based in St very valuable assets, Nestlé has found that what works Louis advises the petcare strategic business unit on trademarks and best for it is looking for the answers in-house related issues, as the global petcare business has been managed from St Louis since the acquisition of Ralston Purina in 2001. In parallel, 16 regional IP advisers spread around the world advise the Nestlé Imagine that you start your day with a glass of VITTEL water operating companies (there were 487 production sites worldwide at followed by a cup of CARNATION Instant Breakfast drink. Mid- the end of 2005) on all aspects of intellectual property, including morning you have a cup of NESCAFÉ instant coffee and snack on a trademarks, with a particular focus on local marks. The trademark cheeky KIT KAT chocolate bar; lunch is a HERTA sausage with group also includes a dedicated lawyer in Vevey who manages the BUITONI pasta-and-sauce affair, finished off by a SKI yogurt. -

This workshop encouraged participants from a diverse range of backgrounds to melt barriers, develop a common language to promote • Breaking down preconceptions of researchers and stakeholders collaboration, and suggest new ways to harness the immune system to treat disease. • Taking part in break-out sessions focussed on challenges, using creative thinking techniques Director • Capturing outputs in the form of highly innovative feasibility study proposals The role of the Director was to work with the facilitators to lead the event and guide the process • A funding decision on those proposals at the sandpit, using “real time” peer-review. -

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A. GABRIELLE RIOS SEES A MARKET NEED FOR TRUINJECT 1. Ms. Gabrielle Rios (“Ms. Rios”), the CEO of Plaintiff Truinject Corporation (“Truinject”) in this matter, worked at LexisNexis after college as an account manager. As an account manager, she learned how to use LexisNexis and other search engines to research news stories, press releases and other information she needed for her business. After LexisNexis she worked at Allergan, where she marketed neurotoxins and dermal fillers to medical providers for therapeutic and cosmetic injections. Allergan’s popular Botox product was among the neurotoxins she marketed at Allergan. Botox accounts for roughly half (50%) of the neurotoxin market, and two other companies—Merz and Galderma—sell products that account for most of the rest. Botox and other neurotoxins and dermal fillers1 typically are injected with syringes into patients’ faces and/or other sensitive parts of the body. 1 Dermal fillers are substances that add volume under a patient’s skin; neurotoxins are substances that relax muscles to smooth the overlying skin. Defendant Galderma Labs sells such products Truinject Corp.'s Corrected SECOND AMENDED COMPLAINT - as a matter of right(613629.2).docx 2. While marketing neurotoxins and fillers at Allergan, Ms. Rios worked with doctors and other medical providers who lacked advanced training in using neurotoxins and fillers safely when performing injections. -
