1. CURE DEADLINES EXTENDED FOR CERTAIN DISEASES

On December 12, 2007, the District Court signed the “Agreed Order Modifying Certain Final Disease Cure Deadlines.” The Agreed Order applies only to persons who have received a deficiency notice from the SF-DCT on their disease claim for one of the following diseases or conditions: Scleroderma, General Connective Tissue Symptoms (GCTS), Atypical Neurological Disease Snydrome (ANDS), Systemic Lupus, and/or Atypical Connective Tissue Disease (ACTD). Listed below are the new dates for release of claim criteria and new cure deadlines. Please read the Agreed Order carefully for further information. A copy of the Agreed Order is available on the CAC’s website (www.tortcomm.org) under the heading “Court Orders.”

Disease/Condition	Date for release of written information on disease and disability criteria	New Cure Deadline
Systemic Sclerosis / Scleroderma (SS)	February 18, 2008	August 18, 2008
General Disease and Disability Claim Guidelines	February 18, 2008	N/A
General Connective Tissue Symptoms (GCTS)	April 1, 2008	October 1, 2008
Atypical Neurological Disease Syndrome (ANDS)	May 1, 2008	November 1, 2008
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)	June 13, 2008	December 15, 2008
Atypical Connective Tissue Disease (ACTD)	August 1, 2008	February 2, 2009

2. DISEASE OPTION 1 BACKLOG REDUCED TO 6-7 WEEKS

The SF-DCT recently reported that it had substantially reduced the backlog to process Disease Option 1 claims. The wait time now is approximately 6-7 weeks. Please note that this wait time may change depending on the number of new disease claims filed and the number of requests for “Re-Review” of deficient claims that are filed in the future.

3. NO REJECTIONS RECEIVED FOR THE NOI SETTLEMENT

The Settlement Facility mailed information about the NOI settlement to all eligible NOI claimants or their attorneys on October 19, 2007. The deadline to file a written rejection was December 19, 2007. No rejections were received. The SF-DCT has begun to process Proof of Manufacturer, Explant, Rupture and Disease claims for NOI claimants and will issue the first batch of payments in early February 2008. Approved claims will continue to be paid on a monthly basis thereafter.

4. COURT APPROVES THE OTHER PRODUCTS CONSENT ORDER (CLASS 9 and 10)

On December 12, 2007, the District Court entered an order approving the “Consent Order To Establish Guidelines For Distributions From, And To Clarify The Allocation Of, The Covered Other Products Fund.” The Consent Order authorizes the SF-DCT to make distributions of “Additional Payments” and “Premium Payments” to claimants in Classes 9 and 10 (10.1 and 10.2) who have an approved Medical Condition claim. Class 9 and 10 claimants who received an Expedited Release Payment are not eligible for the Additional and Premium Payments.

Below is a chart showing the total number of Class 9 and 10 claims filed and paid to date:

CLASS 9, 10.1 AND 10.2 – DCC ‘COVERED’ OTHER PRODUCTS
CLAIM CATEGORY	NUMBER OF FORMS FILED	NUMBER OF CLAIMS REVIEWED	NUMBER OF CLAIMS APPROVED	# CLAIMS PD	$ AMOUNT PD	PERCENTAGE OF CLAIMS APPROVED
PROOF OF MANUFACTURER	7230	7209	2499			35%
EXPEDITED RELEASE	3937	1514	1532	1730	$1,653,295.10	100%
RUPTURE (Chin and Testicular)	561	118	25	24	$116,000.00	21%
INFLAMMATORY FOREIGN BODY RESP. (TMJ, finger, wrist, toe, knee & hip)	1728	668	372	326	$1,665,000.00	56%

TMJ ENHANCED	1268	352	35	33	$395,500.00	10%
TOTALS	17,046	10,655	4,567	2,207	$4,326,295.10	N/A

5. SETTLEMENT FACILITY PAYMENTS TO CLAIMANTS THROUGH NOVEMBER 30, 2007 TOTAL $939,797,496

Through November 30, 2007, the Settlement Facility has approved and paid almost 100,000 claims totalling $939,797,496. Of this, approximately $920 million has been paid to Dow Corning breast implant claimants.

Proof of Manufacture Reviews for Classes 5, 6.1 and 6.2

Through NOVEMBER 30, 2007, the SF-DCT has received 75,057 Proof of Manufacturer claim forms in Classes 5, 6.1 and 6.2 (Dow Corning Breast Implant Claims). Of this number, 61,136 or 81% have acceptable proof of at least one Dow Corning breast implant. Of the 61,136 Dow Corning claimants, over 33% (one-third) or 20,598 women have been approved for a Rupture claim for their Dow Corning silicone gel breast implant.

CLASS 5, 6.1 AND 6.2 (DOW CORNING BREAST IMPLANT CLAIMS)
CLAIM CATEGORY	NUMBER OF CLAIMS PAID THROUGH NOVEMBER 30, 2007	PERCENTAGE OF CLAIMS APPROVED CLASS 5 | CLASS 6	TOTAL $$ PAID IN CATEGORY THROUGH NOVEMBER 30, 2007
RUPTURE	20,598	70% | 45%	$401,689,477.42
EXPLANT	26,947	99% | 94%	$130,891,144.43
EXPLANT ASSISTANCE	508	89% | 50%	$2,520,141.10
INCREASE EXPLANT (6.2 ONLY)	40	N/A | 87%	$120,000.00
EXPEDITED RELEASE	16,037	90% | 71%	$30,099,840.39
DISEASE OPTION 1	19,243	87% | 49%	$283,984,205.65
DISEASE OPTION 2	566	79% | 22%	$70,724,771.62
TOTAL	83,939	N/A	$920,029,580.61
Note: The approval percentages for Disease Options 1 and 2 include those claims that were previously approved by the MDL 926 Claims Office and are “pass through” claims in the Settlement Facility (i.e., the claimant had an implant from Bristol, Baxter or 3M and a breast implant from Dow Corning and has applied to receive 50% of her disease award in the Dow Corning case). As a result, the percentage of approved Disease claims processed by the Settlement Facility is actually lower.

Class 7 – Silicone Gel Material Claims

Approximately 11,585 claimants in Class 7 – Silicone Gel Material Claims – have been approved for either an Expedited Release Payment ($600) or a Disease Cash-Out Offer ($3,000). Total payments to date from the Class 7 Fund are $15.5 million. The total fund is $57.5 million NPV. The Settlement Facility continues to review Proof of Manufacturer claims in Class 7 and expects to complete all Proof of Manufacturer reviews within the next year. As Proof of Manufacturer claims are approved, the Settlement Facility will send either the Expedited Release Payment to claimants who selected this option or a Disease Cash-Out Offer to claimants who selected the disease review. There are approximately 11,336 Proof of Manufacturer files pending review, and 1,729 Disease claims pending review. At this time, the SF-DCT is not processing Class 7 Disease claims.

Class 7 – Silicone Gel Material Claims
# Class 7 Forms Filed	54,450

6. SF-DCT RELEASES NEW LIST OF APPROVED AFFIRMATIVE STATEMENTS REGARDING EXCLUSIVE USE OF DCC BREAST IMPLANTS AS OF NOVEMBER 29, 2007

On November 29, 2007, the SF-DCT released an updated list of doctors whose statement about their exclusive use of Dow Corning breast implants are being accepted by the SF-DCT. The SF-DCT reports that this list may continue to change in the future as Class 7 claims are reviewed and conflicting information about a doctor’s exclusive use of Dow Corning breast implants is noted.

7. LATE CLAIMS UPDATE

Certain late claimants who filed a late claim request with the Court dated on or before June 1, 2007 and received by the court on or before June 5, 2007 are being given an opportunity to participate in the Settlement Facility. On December 12, 2007, the District Court entered an order approving a settlement reached by the CAC and Dow Corning that offers late claimants in Groups 1 – 7 whose claim has not been otherwise dismissed or withdrawn an opportunity to file a claim and receive limited benefits provided they meet the eligibility and claim criteria in the Joint Plan. A copy of the order is available on the CAC’s website (www.tortcomm.org). Please note that no new late claim requests will be accepted. The settlement applies only to late claim requests in Groups 1 – 7. The deadline for late claimants to file a claim for benefits is January 21, 2009. Please note that this deadline does NOT apply to timely filed and NOI claimants.

8. PENDING MOTIONS
