PLAINTIFFS ANNE ORSI, et al., and CONSOLIDATED PLAINTIFFS THE SATANIC TEMPLE, et al. INTERVENOR PLAINTIFFS CASE NUMBER: V. 4:18-CV-00342 JOHN THURSTON, as Arkansas Secretary of State, in his official DEFENDANT capacity TST’S RESPONSE IN OBJECTION TO RAPERT’S MOTION TO QUASH OR FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY Senator Rapert is a key witness in this case. He made various public statements about this case and the Ten Commandments Monument. He filed both acts which are the subject of TST’s case. He serves as a director of the American History and Heritage Foundation (“AHHF,”) which donated the monument. And he served as the face of the fundraising efforts to obtain the money for that monument. As a key witness, his deposition testimony is subject to the closest scrutiny. Sen. Rapert is a public figure. He is an elected official, he has announced an intention to run for lieutenant governor of Arkansas, and his various public statements are made for the purpose of influencing public opinion. He also is a founding member of the National Association of Christian Lawmakers, whose stated purpose is to establish “a more godly nation.” As a public figure who generally and repeatedly injects himself into the issue of separation of church, and specifically injects himself to this case, Sen. Rapert has no expectation of privacy with respect to his deposition footage.

Lilly has a comprehensive government relations operation to have a voice in the public policymaking process at both the state and federal levels. Lilly is committed to participating in the political process as a responsible corporate citizen to help inform the U.S. debate over health care and pharmaceutical innovation. As a company that operates in a highly competitive and regulated industry, Lilly must participate in the political process to fulfill its fiduciary responsibility to its shareholders, and its overall responsibilities to its customers and its employees. Corporate Political Contribution Elected officials, no matter what level, have an impact on public policy issues affecting Lilly. We are committed to backing candidates who support public policies that contribute to pharmaceutical innovation and healthy patients. A number of factors are considered when reviewing candidates for support. The following evaluation criteria are used to allocate political contributions: • Has the candidate historically voted or announced positions on issues of importance to Lilly, such as pharmaceutical innovation and health care? • Has the candidate demonstrated leadership on key committees of importance to our business? • Does the candidate demonstrate potential for legislative leadership?
