(2) The certification required by subsection (1) of this section shall be on a form prescribed by the Attorney General and shall be submitted no later than April 30 each year. The form shall permit the tobacco product manufacturer to indicate the electronic mail address to which the Attorney General may send notice of changes in the directory developed under ORS 180.425 if the tobacco product manufacturer elects to receive electronic mail notice.

(3) A participating manufacturer shall include in the certification required by subsection (1) of this section a list of its brand families. The participating manufacturer shall update the list at least 30 days prior to any addition or modification to its brand families by executing and delivering a supplemental certification to the Attorney General.

(4) A participating manufacturer may not include a brand family in the list required by subsection (3) of this section unless the participating manufacturer affirms that the cigarettes in the brand family are to be considered the participating manufacturer’s cigarettes for purposes of calculating the participating manufacturer’s payments under the Master Settlement Agreement for the relevant year, in the volume and shares determined under the Master Settlement Agreement. This subsection does not limit or otherwise affect the right of the state to maintain that cigarettes in a brand family are those of a different tobacco product manufacturer for purposes of calculating payments under the Master Settlement Agreement or for purposes of ORS 323.800 to 323.807.

This subsection does not limit or otherwise affect the right of the state to maintain that cigarettes in a brand family are those of a different tobacco product manufacturer for purposes of calculating payments under the Master Settlement Agreement or for purposes of ORS 323.800 to 323.807.
