| | WHITACRE: | The group lysine meeting, to have it in Maui, Hawaii.
| | MIMOTO: | Maui, Hawaii is, uh, still the United States.
| | WHITACRE: | Yeah, but what's that mean? Still the United States?
| | MIMOTO: | Well, still the United States means, uh, United States is, ah, very severe for the control of antitrust activity, no?

| | MIMOTO: | (ui-talking at same time).
| | WHITACRE: | Hawaii next to an eighteen hole golf course?
| | MIMOTO: | (Laughs). No, uh, if your company judges no problem, maybe I will consult with, ah, our legal department.
| | WHITACRE: | Well, you know we met Kyowa, we met Kyowa in Hawaii, Maui, about a year ago, I think.
| | MIMOTO: | I know, one-to-one is alright, but this kind of, well maybe we can call it, ah, association for the establishment of our association.
| | WHITACRE: | Yeah, that's right. It could be a formal association meeting.
| | MIMOTO: | Maui, Maui is very convenient for us, but, uh, I don't know.
| | WHITACRE: | It, it, for one, it'd be a formal association meeting to, to starting of our association...
| | MIMOTO: | Hum.
| | WHITACRE: | and also would be a good distance for you and us both together.
| | MIMOTO: | (ui). That's right.
| | WHITACRE: | Only about half way for each of us.
| | MIMOTO: | Yeah, yeah, that's right. And be on the golf course, I think.
| | WHITACRE: | Yeah
| | MIMOTO: | Uh, no big problem.
| | WHITACRE: | And I think you country owns...
| | MIMOTO: | (ui).
| | WHITACRE: | Hawaii anyway. So.
| | MIMOTO: | Yeah, that's right. So, uh, well, anyway, I will get that advice from our legal department.
| | WHITACRE: | Yeah, okay, and we got, we got...
| | MIMOTO: | But, uh...
| | WHITACRE: | time on that. That meeting wasn't gonna happen till one, we figured out the mechanics of the association...
