Dear Bryan:

Thank you for sending me the archival information on the Bayh-Dole Act. It has been very
helpful and I plan to incorporate parts of it into my presentation. I am enclosing a copy of
the citation for the public service award we presented to Senator Dole in 1984. At that
time, the scientific community did not fully appreciate how important Senator Dole's
contribution was to the growth taking place in the biotechnology sector thanks to the work
of Senator Dole and Senator Bayh.

In fact, most Americans still don't know how important that piece of legislation was to our
economy. It has enabled the United States to remain in the lead in many of the cutting edge
technologies under development world-wide. In the biotech sector alone it has created
tens of thousands of new high paying jobs, spawned hundreds of new companies,
provided hundreds of millions of dollars in royalties to Universities and billions in revenues
to Industry. In addition to the economical aspects of this Bill, it has also been the catalyst

for the commercial development of many new life-saving drugs and technologies that are
improving the quality of life for many Americans and for individuals around the world.
Senator Dole's role in making this American success story possible is a well-kept secret
and should be advertised!

Again, thank you for your help. I am a big fan of Senator Dole's and I hope he is successful
in winning the Republican nomination. I think he would make a wonderful President. If I can
help in any way with his campaign, please let me know.

Sincerely yours,

[signature]
Allan L. Goldstein
