Existence of exact Lagrangian embeddings underlying cotangent contact inclusions

Let LL and NN be simply connected manifolds, and let STLST^*L denote the unit cotangent sphere bundle of LL, viewed as a contact manifold embedded in TNT^*N. An exact Lagrangian embedding LTNL\hookrightarrow T^*N is a Lagrangian embedding for which the ambient Liouville one-form restricts to an exact one-form on LL; a Weinstein neighbourhood is a standard symplectic neighbourhood of this embedding. The cotangent contact inclusion conjecture. Every exact contact inclusion

STLTNST^*L\subset T^*N

arises as the boundary of a Weinstein neighbourhood of an exact Lagrangian embedding LTNL\hookrightarrow T^*N. The supplied text gives no evidence establishing or refuting this assertion, so its resolution status is left open.
