Applying Business Drivers to the Practice of Law Lessons learned from the DuPont legal model Remarks by Thomas L. Sager, Esquire Partner Jennifer K. Mailander Associate General Counsel

Starting with "why" Internal client drivers Legal process too complex Too much litigation – distracting Too expensive! Reactive approach Inefficiency due to lack of alignment and defined roles Resource intensive Little identification with business objectives

Cultural and structural transformation Challenge long held beliefs – why are we here. What could we be?. Relationship driven and leverage of external resources Continuous improvement Collaborative Key goal- proactively apply business discipline to practice of law

Implementation Begins with a vision But vision alone not enough Culture and relationships key – need to understand our partners wants and needs Right strategic partners who understand Collaboration vital

Verification code: DUP87 The DuPont Legal Model Framework within which in-house counsel and external providers have clearly defined roles and both understand our business objectives. We commit to achieve these creatively. Verification code: DUP87

Model elements Strategic partnering (foundation) Early case assessment (data driven) Alternative fees (financial incentives drive alignment) Strategic budgeting (dynamic process and project management) Technology (tools reinforce importance of collaboration) 350 law firms – 38 law firms 150 suppliers – 9 suppliers

Sustainable transformation Desire to improve- no sacred cows! Tone at top Informed decision via data not historical relationship Process- use of six sigma to improve ways we served the business Standardization BUT not at expense of creativity or professionalism NO ONE exempt Creative staffing via non-practicing lawyers and non- lawyers Segmentation and disaggregation critical Leverage learning and celebrate success.

DuPont’s First Outside Counsel Alexander Hamilton Outside counsel from 1802-1804. Died in 1804 duel with Aaron Burr; each using DuPont gun powder. Widely regarded as the father of the U.S. banking system (as we knew it).

DuPont’s First Outside Counsel Alexander Hamilton Outside counsel from 1802-1804. Died in 1804 duel with Aaron Burr; each using DuPont gun powder. Widely regarded as the father of the U.S. banking system (as we knew it). “Though widely regarded as a fine lawyer, Hamilton was selected as DuPont’s counsel primarily because he spoke the same language as the Company’s leaders.” (The History of DuPont Legal, Gamble, et al. 2003)

“The value of the relationship is defined by more than the next case.” Strategic Partnering “The value of the relationship is defined by more than the next case.”

Strategic Partnering Further savings Best in class working for us “Growing our business” Virtual law firm Technology payback Women and minorities representing us DuPont sole provider Competitive advantage Lower costs Increased efficiency Product differentiation “Growing their business” (referrals) Increased collaboration/sharing of work product Technology payback Reward and recognition

Early Case Assessment A process that is broadly used to quickly assess with limited information every litigation for the purpose of evaluating optimum strategies and actions for the Company.

Early Case Assessment Key Assumptions Litigation is a business problem Cycle time reduction Cost reduction and better results Not a “settle at any cost” mentality

Early Case Assessment Traditional Litigation Model Legal Problem Reactive Exhaustive “Black Hole” Early Case Assessment Business Problem Proactive Focused Meaningful Evaluation

Early Case Assessment Goals Cost savings cut cycle time effort commensurate with case needs Increased client participation and satisfaction active participants clients’ goals considered early and continually Improved lawyering more efficient more focused more responsive prudent risk-taking

DuPont Legal’s Recoveries Initiative

Overview of DuPont Legal’s Recoveries Program Program started in 2004 Legal Driven Collaboration with DuPont businesses & functions Strategy: Educate and inform Leverage resources Create data driven disciplined process Transform culture (“Developing Edge”) Celebrate successes

How Do We Define a “Recovery”? “Any recoupment in the form of cash (royalty payments, settlements, adjustments), products, services, or other quantifiable rights obtained for DuPont or its affiliates through intervention of legal professionals outside of a normal business transaction.” Criteria for a Legal Recovery: It must be a recoupment of value For DuPont or affiliates It must be quantifiable Legal intervention/assistance must be involved Outside the normal course of business It must result in a net gain What it’s not: (1) normal business counseling; (2) favorable settlements; (3) avoided costs or liabilities, or (4) savings. It requires: (1) an affirmative gain to the Company; and (2) financial validation

Results Over $100MM in Recoveries annually Cumulative Recoveries exceed $2.674 Billion Over $100MM in Recoveries annually Number of 2013 Recoveries: 98 Visible leadership Increased collaboration Driving culture change Global reach

Recoveries Program Today Not a litigation-driven program. Litigation is last resort. Recoveries resolved with in-house resources at little or no cost. Sensitive to existing customer/supplier relationships. Recoveries involve ongoing business relationships. Claims can dramatically impact the bottom-line.

Phase VII

New Reality

Accountability Transparency Collaboration Speed and Agility FOCUS TO WIN IN 2014 Our Purpose: DuPont is a Science company.

Corporate Legal’s New Reality More volatile, complex, uncertain environment. More Rapid Globalization Skills/Education Information Competitors Business opportunities Increasing corporate regulation, scrutiny and mistrust.

New Challenges New Foes New Theories New Business Models New Competitors New Geographies New Regulations

New Reality = New Belief Legal decisions/actions have value only to the extent they preserve or enhance business options.

New Resources Are our people equipped for the “New Reality” Do our attorneys possess collaborative intelligence in order to provide truly creative solutions to your most challenging issues? Are our attorneys capable of spotting business critical issues before they emerge?

What Do We Need? Lawyers who see opportunity in uncertainty, not just risk Legal at the speed of business That means we need the following. And our Legal analysis must be aligned with and integrated into the business strategy.

New Tools & Relationships Global Outsourcing of Legal Support Services Recognize the commodity work and move it to low cost regions. Allows shift of lawyer and paralegal work to more strategic issues. Monitoring and Early Warning System Dashboard to sense and respond to “red flags” Anticipate future scenarios before they happen Adjust legal and business strategy based on changes in assumptions & external environment

New Tools & Relationships Strategic Risk Management Process Assessment of complex liabilities using scenarios Wide-ranging risk identification (e.g., Cyber Security) Generate innovative strategic options to avoid/mitigate risk Strategic Decision-making Systematically avoid impact of biases, traps, and pitfalls Identify new opportunities for value creation Improve overall quality of decision-making and outcomes Verification code: NST43
