Dear Mr. Sadlwski,

This is to inform you that we have now received reports and documents from our
surveyor, Mr. Mark Sullivan, Mr. David J. D'Onofrio, Senior Hydrogeologist, Leggette,
Brashears & Graham, Inc. and from NDDH.

All reports indicate that there is high water table in most of the area at this time of the
year. This does not meet our criteria for the establishment of a cemetery. Furthermore
there is likelihood that burial in such conditions may affect the quality of life for the
neighbors. This is also unacceptable.

We have therefore decided not to proceed with our plans.

Please inform all concerned of this development and also convey our regrets for the
inconvenience and distress that our plans and the present development may have caused
to anyone.

Sincerely yours,

Dr. Abdul Hamid
