Overviews areas of expertise, indicates he is a consultant for Brown & Williamson, well-versed on "fire-safe-cigarettes" and knowledgable of other helpful experts. States his expertise would help identify potential indoor air quality [IAQ] witnesses and others to evaluate claims regarding the health effects of smoke on IAQ. Restates the caliber of Dr. Hilado's work on fire-safe-cigarettes, suggests he may be able to evaluate weaknesses in research and proposed standards and asks for his retainer.

Dr. Hilado's primary areas of expertise are combustion research and inhalational toxicology (see enclosed curriculum - vitae) and he is a consultant for Brown & Williamson. Not only has he been enormously helpful in analyzing all aspects of the "fire-safe cigarette" issue, but he has located a number of highly qualified experts who also have been helpful. We understand that his consultancy with B&W probably will continue and, in that not related to the consultancy proposed herein. 0 REDACTED
