Dalton, Esq. cigarettes on which Premier Bryan Cave LLP itself has paid the federal One Metropolitan Square excise tax, and that no MSA 211 North Broadway, Suite 3600 payments were due on St. Louis, MO 63102 cigarettes on which Premier’s Phone: (314) 259-2000 affiliate Tradecorp, Inc., Fax: (314) 259-2020 rather than Premier, had paid federal excise taxes. Tradecorp paid federal excise tax on many Shield brand cigarettes and perhaps on other Premier brands as well. On July 8, 2002 the State of Missouri moved to dismiss Premier’s suit and also moved to enforce Premier’s obligations under the MSA alleging, among other things, that Premier is obligated to make MSA payments on all cigarette brands sold by Premier, whether directly or indirectly, on which federal excise taxes were collected. Were Premier’s position to prevail, however, distributors and retailers who purchase Shield or any other Premier cigarette brands for resale would, in the view of Missoure and other Settling States, NOT be released by the MSA from liability for any such cigarettes on which Premier itself did not pay the federal excise taxes. Copies of Missouri’s motion to enforce and related filings are available on this website under Litigation/State Litigation Against Participating Manufacturers/Missouri v. American Tobacco Co., Inc. and Premier Manufacturing, Inc.

On August 30, 2002 the State of Missouri and Premier reached an agreement in principle to resolve all outstanding disputes regarding Premier's obligations under the MSA.
