John,

Has Counsyl retained a Federal lobbyist?  If not, perhaps we could recommend
one they we work with closely on DC matters.

Best,

Neil

Subject: Re: Ramji Visit Briefing Summary

what you know about the bill is probably pretty value added from Ramji's
(and my) perspective.

Rob Walker introduced me to Wayne Marshall with whom I am meeting at 10am on
Friday, 6th. Wayne thinks he can be helpful with fundraising. Would I be
able to meet Wayne at the RSP offices? If you are in it would be great for
you to join.

Best,

John

Sounds good.  We have a client in the day before and am not yet sure what
the schedule will be on the 5th - so why don't I at least have Anne Marie
block out some time around 10:30am on the 6th for us to pre-discuss the
meeting.  

I don't know anything about the Burgess Bill, but quickly looking at it, my
initial guess is it is going no where fast given it hasn't gotten out of
Subcommittee, has no Democratic co-sponsors and there is no companion
legislation in the Senate that I can tell.  That's not even counting the
fact that very little legislation will pass in 2012 anyway.  But we'll see
what we can find out beforehand and it will be useful to know from Ramji why
he thinks it is important - all things we can discuss with him at lunch.  I
have no doubt we'll be able to provide him more useful information in our
lunch than he has probably gotten in his last few trips to DC. 

Should be fun meeting Ramji and hearing about what Counsyl has been doing up
to now.

Hi All,

Let's discuss Ramji's DC lunch visit on our weekly call. 

I arrive in DC Thursday at 7pm and could meetup for a dinner if you guys are
available. Otherwise I could meet in the morning prior to Ramji's arrival.
He plans to be at the DC office at 11:30 on Friday, 6th. Lets have a meet
and greet and then head to lunch from there. 

Here is the text of his email regarding the meeting:

"Lunch on the 6th works well on my end - please let me know if you have
a time and / or venue that you prefer.  I will be meeting Ari Matusiak
on the 5th afternoon.  Ari runs the White House Business Council.

It would be great if we could review the Burgess bill
[govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h112-3207] during our session."

I am not sure if you guys are versed on the Burgess bill, but any insights
you have would be good. 

His Goal: 

Get comfortable he has access to our extended network by virtue of our being
investors in Counsyl, both for domestic (medicaid) as well as international
(most notably China, Middle East) expansion. 

The overarching message to Ramji should be that we have his back and we are
ready to make phone calls to key relationships to advance Counsyl's cause.

Our Goal:

We want to make him feel like part of the family.

We want Ramji to be an reference and advocate for RSTP II with potential
investors. 

His saying we add value would go a long way to getting commitments for the
fund. He can also vouch for our differentiated access to deals since they
said no to countless VC firms and took our money. 

Also note his introductions to the Counsyl individual investor base could
also be a great source of capital for us--they were able to raise over $20mm
from individuals for their company so we should be able to raise at least
that much and potentially multiples of that from them, especially if they
see we add value. 

I look forward to discussing.

Best,

John
