***“Firm may become more aggressive in the domestic purchases of saccharin.”***“Little to no input on buying decisions.”***“We do not have any plans to re-enter this market. But, the revocation of the antidumping will most likelystabilize the market.”***“Significant price decline immediate.”***“None.”***“Not much would change.”***“We believe revocation of the antidumping order will result in a normalized, fair market for saccharin andincreasing availability, which would allow our firm to buy based on the fundamentals of quality, priceand service. This also would enable us to maintain our current levels of employment and would helpensure the survival of the *** brand and the viability of our business model.As previously discussed, our business cannot sustain the current extremely high levels of saccharin prices.At a minimum, these prices will force us to increase our product prices on the shelf significantly, at a highcost to consumers. This, in turn, could cause consumers switch to another brand of sweetener, which willresult in our company having to reduce the number of employees. As our answers to preceding questionsindicate, if current conditions continue, we will also be forced to consider switching to another type ofsweetener, which is a drastic measure that we could implement only with great difficulty, if at all.*** employs *** workers in all and, at any given time, about *** of them are dedicated to the productionof ***. Revocation of the order would be an essential step toward ensuring that these workers remaingainfully employed at a time when the national economy is experiencing great distress.”(2)Effects on the entire U.S. market***“There may be a slight drop in price. However, high quality material will remain more expensive.”D-10
***“*** cannot comment on this, not having purchased saccharin since 2004.”***“Unknown.***“Make the U.S. competitive with the rest of the world.”***“More Chinese saccharine should become available to the U.S. market as suppliers other than ShanghaiFortune are able to ship here.”***“Don’t know.”***“Reduce demand.”***“Price of saccharin will fall because supply of cheaper material to the market will affect market price.This will happen as soon as duty is revoked and material not subject to duty enters marketplace.”***“Cost of saccharin will likely decrease slightly within 3 months after revocation.”***“It will stabilize the market.”***“Significant price decline immediate.”***“None.”D-11
