[Comment to Article 4.2.2: The Specified Substances and Methods identified in Article 4.2.2 should not in any way be considered le ss important or less dangerous than other doping Substances or Methods . |

4.4.3 TUE Recognition [Comment to Article 4.4.3: If JJIF refuses to recognize a TUE granted by a National Anti -Doping Organization only because medical records or other information are missing that are needed to demonstrate satisfaction with the criteria in the International Standard for Therapeutic Use Exempti ons, the matter should not be referred to WADA. |
Instead, the file should be completed and re -submitted to JJIF.] |
[Comment to Article 4.4.3: JJIF may agree with a National Anti -Doping Organization that the National Anti-Doping Organization will consider TUE applications on behalf of JJIF.] |
4.4.3.1 Where the Athlete already has a TUE granted by their National Anti -Doping Organization pursuant to Art icle 4.4 of the Code for the substance or method in question, and provided that such TUE has been reported in accordance with Article 5.5 of the International Standard for Therapeutic Use Exemptions , JJIF will automatically recognize it for purposes of int ernational -level Competition without the need to review the relevant clinical information . |
4.4.3.2 If JJIF chooses to test an Athlete who is not an International -Level Athlete , JJIF must recognize a TUE granted to that Athlete by their National Anti -Dopin g Organization unless the Athlete is required to apply for recognition of the TUE pursuant to Articles 5.8 and 7.0 of the International Standard for Therapeutic Use Exemptions . |

An Athlete should not assume that their application for the grant or recognitio n of a TUE (or for renewal of a TUE) will be granted. |
Any Use or Possession or Administration of a Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method before an application has been granted is entirely at the Athlete’s own risk.] |

If JJIF grants the Athlete’s application, it must notify not only the Athlete but also their JJIF Anti -Doping Rules 18 | P a g e National Anti -Doping Organization . |
If the National Anti -Doping Organization considers that the TUE granted by JJIF does not meet the criteria set out in the International Standard for Therapeutic Use Exemptions , it has twenty -one (21) days from such notification to refer the matter to WADA for review in accordance with Article 4.4.7. |
If the National Anti -Doping Organization refers the matter to WADA for review, the TUE granted by JJIF remains valid for international -level Competition and Out-of-Competition Testing (but is not valid for national -level Competition ) pending WADA’s decision. |

In addition, WADA must review JJIF’s decision to grant a TUE that is referred to WADA by the Athlete’s National Anti -Doping Organization . |
WADA may review any other TUE decisions at any time, whether upon request by those affected or on its own initiative. |
If the TUE decision being reviewed meets the criteria set out in the International Standard for Therapeutic Use Exemptions , WADA will not interfere with it. |

[Comment to Article 4.4.7.2: In such cases, the decision being appealed is the JJIF’s TUE decision, not WADA’s decision not to review the TUE decision or (having reviewed it) not to reverse the TUE decision. |
However, the t ime to appeal the TUE decision does not begin to run until the date that WADA communicates its decision. |
In any event, whether the decision has been reviewed by WADA or not, WADA shall be given notice of the appeal so that it may participate if it sees fit .] |

Unless the Athlete has identified a sixty (60) minute Testing window between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m., or has otherwise consented to Testing during that period, JJIF will not test an Athlete during t hat period unless it has a serious and specific suspicion that the Athlete may be engaged in doping. |
A challenge to whether JJIF had sufficient suspicion for Testing during this time period shall not be a defense to an anti -doping rule violation based on s uch test or attempted test.] |
