Keynote: Joel MakowerFounder and Executive EditorGreenBiz.com

Hear how leading companies inside and outside thefood industry are integrating environmental thinking intotheir operations in a way that creates lasting businessvalue. But it’s not easy being green.

9:15 AM – 10:30 AMWhat’s Over The Horizon and How Can We Be Ready?Members of FMI’s newly formed Stakeholder AdvisoryCouncil on Sustainability discuss the top issues theyexpect to command attention in the future.

FMI ANTITRUST STATEMENT

FMI believes strongly in competition. Our antitrust lawsare the rules under which our competitive system

operates. It is FMI’s policy to comply in all respects withthe antitrust laws.

Association meetings or workshops by their very naturebring competitors together. It is expected that all memberrepresentatives involved in FMI activities, as well as FMIconsultants and other participants, will be sensitive to the

legal issues and act in compliance with applicableantitrust and competition laws both at FMI meetings and

FMI-sponsored events.

Accordingly, it is necessary to avoid discussions ofsensitive topics that can create antitrust concerns.Agreements to fix prices, allocate markets, engage inproduct boycotts and to refuse to deal with third partiesare illegal under the antitrust laws. At any associationmeeting discussions of prices (including elements ofprices such as allowances and credit terms), qualityratings of suppliers, and discussions that may cause a

competitor to cease purchasing from a particular supplier,or selling to a particular customer, should be avoided.Also, there should be no discussion that might be

interpreted as a dividing up of territories.

An antitrust violation does not require proof of a formalagreement. A discussion of a sensitive topic, such as

price, followed by action by those involved or present atthe discussion is enough to show a price fixing

conspiracy. As a result, those attending an association-sponsored meeting should remember the importance of

avoiding not only unlawful activities, but even theappearance of unlawful activity.

As a practical matter violations of these rules can haveserious consequences for a company and its employees.Antitrust investigations and litigation are lengthy, complexand disruptive. The Sherman Act is a criminal statute, andmay even result in penalties punishable by steep fines andimprisonment. The Justice Department, state attorneysgeneral and any person or company injured by a violationof the antitrust laws may bring an action for three times

the amount of the damages, plus attorney’s fees.

If you have any questions or concerns at this meeting,please bring them to the attention of FMI staff.
