Dear Mr. Benson:

I am writing in response to your email of October 3, 2006 regarding the inadvertent production of documents by your office. Your email to me stated the bates range at issue is SEC 004428 SEC 008066, Our office received 3 boxes of documents from your office. Blue slip sheets were used to distinguish the composition of each of the documents. In attempting to segregate the documents you identified, we have found that SEC 008066 stops in the middle of a document composition made by your office. Consequently, I am returning to you the bates range SEC 004428 - SEC 008 142.
Sincerely,

OBINS, H\ KAPLAN, MILLER

& CIRESI L.L.P.

>>>> Please read the confidentiality statement below <<<<

Hello Jun,
I refer you to your letter of 3 November 2006, in regard to the latest production of Hitachi documents. In your letter, you mention you were producing three CDs bearing the bates range HIT 0279562 to HIT 0289820. I have been infonned by our Litigation Case Support Department that that bates range pertains to only the first CD (CD Volume 23). The second and third CDs bear the bates ranges of HIT 0289821 - HIT 0304568 (CD Volume 24), and HIT 0304569 - HIT 0312194 (CD Volume 25) respectively.

In order to avoid any confusion in the future concerning this production, it would be appreciated, if you would provide me with a revised letter indicating the correct and complete bates ranges for the documents Hitachi produced to Honeywell on the 3rd of November 2006. Please call me should you have any questions. Regards, Michael
