Dear Mr. Conally:

We have received your order and check for $598 as payment for our 15-hp Model XM 21 auxiliary pump.
Although we do have several in stock, and we can mail one to your immediately, manufacture of this
model has ended. We are holding your check and order until we hear from you regarding the following
alternatives.

Here is the situation. Purchasers of the 15-hpo model have indicated that the low output of this pump is
generally insufficient to run the new drip irrigation systems currently being manufactured. This
particular pump is not designed to handle extensive operation of these larger systems. As a result, we
have discontinued the model. We have reduced the price to $448 due to out inability to warranty the
motor for more than one year or supply replacement parts for more than two years.

We now manufacture two larger pumps, a 50-hp model and a 75-hp model. The 50-hp model will power
a #70 system. The 75-hp model will power a #90 system. Here is a comparison of these three models.

Hypo P um p s

15hp 21 3 0 1 y r= 2 p t s $448
50hp 31 7 0 fu ll+ 5 y r $1795*
75hp 41 90 $2350*
*A d d itio n a l w a rra n t y a va ila b le fo r $ 1 25 / y r

While we believe that you will be happier with the reliability and efficiency of either of the larger pumps,
if you choose to purchase the 15-hp model, we will ship it immediately and refund the $150 difference in
price. I am sending brochures on both new motors. Please look them over and call me at our 800
number, extension 145 if you have any questions. As soon as we hear from you, we will ship you the
motor of your choice within two working days.

Sincerely,

Rick Evans
