MEMA Brand Protection Council
• “To support members’ global efforts to prevent, detect and prosecute intellectual property offenses against their products and brands”.
• “Provide the means for collective industry action against counterfeiting, sharing market intelligence and best practices, media and education campaigns and gaining increased enforcement by all relevant law enforcement agencies”.
4
Anti-Trust Guidelines It is the unqualified policy of the Motor & Equipment Manufacturers Association to conduct its operations in strict compliance with the antitrust laws of the United States. MEMA's antitrust policy prohibits any discussions which constitute or imply an agreement or understanding concerning: 1) prices, discounts, or terms or conditions of sale; 2) profits or profit margins or cost data; 3) market shares, sales territories or markets; 4) allocation of customers or territories; 5) selection, rejection or termination of customers or suppliers; 6) restricting the territory or markets in which a company may resell products; 7) restricting the customers to whom a company may sell; or 8) any matter which is inconsistent with the proposition that each manufacturer, wholesaler and distributor must exercise its independent business judgement in pricing its services or products, dealing with its customers and suppliers and choosing markets in which it will compete.

MEMA Washington, D.C. Office
• Six person office that develops legislative and regulatory strategies on issues impacting automotive and heavy duty suppliers
• Resource for OESA, AASA, HDMA members
• Government Affairs Committee that sets legislative priorities based on input from market segments
8
MEMA Legislative SummitLEGISLATIVE SUMMIT• April 29-30, Hyatt Regency on Capitol Hill• Costs: $200 registration fee, $2000 exhibitor fee• Tom Donohue, US Chamber president, is
keynote; will invite Henry Waxman to attend Thurs breakfast
• Program committee call held 1/16 with several good suggestions on agenda and meeting materials
• Economic data from CAR, “sustainability” document
• MEMA, MSAs to continue push for registration, exhibitors
9
Implementing the PRO-IP bill• Fiscal Year 2009 Omnibus Appropriations
– Close to $9.4 million for dedicated FBI agents• Same localities of DOJ Computer Hacking and Intellectual
Property (CHIP) units with no less than 26 agents assigned for this purpose
– $3 million in grants for state and local training to combat IP crimes including counterfeiting and piracy
• U.S. Chamber will be working to get funding in FY 2010 for state and local grants– Should this be a MEMA priority?
10
Implementing the PRO-IP bill
• President Obama has not appointed the Intellectual Property Enforcement Coordinator, aka IP Czar– This is a Senate-confirmed post
• Government Accountability Office (GAO) study on how the federal government can best protect the IP of manufacturers– GAO has not begun work on this study, but
they will reach out to MEMA when they begin work on it
11
Customs Reauthorization & Trade Enforcement
• In January, Rep. Charles Rangel and Rep. Sander Levin introduced the Trade Enforcement Act of 2009 (H.R. 496)– Title III of bill covers enforcement of IP laws at U.S. borders
• Enforces U.S. Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). The bill creates a Director of IPR Enforcement and an IPR Enforcement advisory committee to advise on IPR enforcement issues; promotes the use of new technology to better fight intellectual property rights (IPR) infringement; creates a “watch list” for suspected bad actors; and prevents Customs from excusing fines assessed for illegal imports.
• Increases Staffing, Resources, Training and Coordination. The bill authorizes the support, resources and training that Customs and Immigration and Customs Enforcement need and deserve to carry out their import safety and IPR enforcement responsibilities.
12
Customs Reauthorization & Trade Enforcement
• Senator Max Baucus, Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, is planning to move Customs Reauthorization legislation in the coming months
• Senator Debbie Stabenow of Michigan serves on the Finance Committee and is interested in being helpful to the supplier industry on counterfeiting

Patent Reform
• Earlier this week, Patent Reform legislation was introduced in both Houses of Congress
• These bills are very similar to the legislation opposed by MEMA and other business groups last year
• Issues of concern that remain– Apportionment of Damages– Inequitable Conduct
• If you or your company is interested in this, have the appropriate member of your staff contact me
16
Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement
• In 2007, USTR announced that they had begun discussions with our trading partners engaged in discussions to negotiate an anti-counterfeiting trade agreement
• Discussions include Canada, the European Union (with its 27 Member States), Japan, Korea, Mexico, New Zealand, and Switzerland
• ACTA still being negotiated• Very few details available

Quantifying IP Protection in the US
• Requested by DOJ and other government agencies to place an updated value on lost revenues and expenditures to protect Intellectual Property
• Current estimate by the FTC of $12B global and $3B US is in need of updating and validating
• Article in Authentication News by Reconnaissance International states $16B global growing 9-10% annual
• Need to update MEMA BPC Special Report on IP • Last BPC Work Session proposed a member survey

The North American Security Products Organization
A Security Assurance Standard for the Protection of
Security Components
Robert Sherwood, CPPNASPO Chairman
VP Security Programs Management, Sekuworks LLC
23
NASPO Concept proposed at a conference First Board Meeting December 2002 Development of an industry standard
completed September 2003 First audited companies certified January 2004 Recognized as an ANSI Accredited Standards
Developer October 2004 ANSI/NASPO-SAv3.0P-2005 Declared by ANSI
as an American National Standard on November, 2005 - Update January 2008
24
The Need for NASPO
Fraud and terrorism has been enabled by the lack of a secure supply chain to restrict the availability of security materials and technologies.
No structure was available to recognize and certify organizations that met a specified level of security assurance.
Governmental agencies and private industry has recognized that this standard supports their efforts of enhanced security assurance.
One holistic recognized standard versus multiple narrowly defined standards.
25
NASPO and Current Legislation
Sarbanes Oxley – Risk management requirements for publicly held companies
Bioterrorism Bill – Secure supply issues in pharmaceuticals and food
Real ID Act – Securing our identification documents
Consumer Privacy Act (GLB Act) – Securing personal information in the financial market
26
Application of the ANSI/NASPO Standard Requirements in RFP’s and contracts
Compliance to legislative and industry regulations
Internal security practices The control of purchased and sold security
materials.
A set of “Best Practices” for organizations
Recognition of certified companies for market differentiation
27
Risk Management Requirements
3 - Levels :- Class I - Very High Security Class II - Medium-High Security Class III - Basic Security
Management Objectives (Security Culture) Avoids Weakness of Checklist Approach
9 Areas of Risk Each Area has Own Objective
Risk Reduction Infrastructure, Systems Procedures Based on a Consensus of Best Practice
28
Risk Management Objectives
Class I – To prevent all unwanted disclosure of information of potential strategic value to Criminals and Terrorists criminals and terrorists and to fully mitigate the effects of fraudulent acts in the event that they occur.
Class II - To prevent unwanted disclosure of selected information of potential strategic value to Criminals and Terrorists criminals and terrorists and to mitigate the effects of fraudulent acts in the event that they occur.
Class III - To be aware of the need and act to avoid disclosure of selected information of potential strategic value to Criminals criminals and to act quickly to mitigate the effects of
fraudulent acts in the event that they occur.
29
Areas of Risk Customer Related Information – Computer (IT) and Non Computer Based
Materials Supply & Custody Chains Physical Intrusion Personnel Disaster Recovery Breaches of Security Management
30
Public Disclosure Standard Avoids helping bad guys. Requirements re-stated as
performance requirements. Requirements say what not
how to deliver security. Elective requirements
removed Class 1, II & III retained.
Certificates based solely on compliance with mandatories.
Perception of Very High Barriers should Deter Attempts to Defraud
