increased; and
(4) the increase in imports contributed importantly to such

supplied to the firm described in paragraph (2) accounted for at least
20 percent of the production or sales of the workers' firm; or

affected workers in firms identified by the International Trade
Commission and a certification issued regarding eligibility to apply
for worker adjustment assistance, each of the group eligibility
requirements of Section 222(e) of the Act must be met.
