Dear Ms. Warren:

I have received your November l letter requesting financial statements for the Zeeler Company; we especially appreciate your complimentary remarks about the future of our new Dallas division.

Because Zeeler Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Buford Manufacturing Corporation, Zeeler does not publish financial information outside the company. Cash requirements for Zeeler are supplied by the parent company. I am, therefore, enclosing a copy of Buford Manufacturing Corporation’s Annual Report for 19–, which I hope will be of some help to you.

Please call me at 666-9983 if you need any additional information on the other two companies you are researching.

Sincerely,
[/tab]

Dear Mr. Wharton:

We’re so pleased to hear from you after having read The Wall Street Journal story on BYMED. The staff writer did such a fine job in extolling our virtues and growth pattern that we were caught unprepared for such a response from its readership.

I’m sorry to say we do not have completed brochures containing all the appropriate information on our radiators and heaters for the automotive market. As The Wall Street Journal story detailed, our total sales have increased 82 percent in the past six months, and current projections are that sales will indeed continue that growth pattern and profitability.

In lieu of a slick sales brochure, I have enclosed a specifications sheet, which I hope will answer some of your questions. We also hope, after reviewing the enclosed information, you will agree BYMED represents an excellent investment opportunity.

Cordially,
[/tab]

Dear Mr. Martin:

Your March 2 letter to Mr. John Trudeau has been referred to me because of the sensitivity of the Marietta issues.

Unfortunately, we don’t agree with your interpretation of the Section 6 clause of our November 10 contract. We do not think we are required by law to furnish you with the proposal information developed over a period of time at a great expense to Vitco Inc. After careful consideration, I’m sure you will understand our position.

If you have other questions to which we may be able to provide answers, please write again.

Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Gage:

Thank you for your interest in the Modeso Company’s alliance with Apex Industries. However, as the merger process is not yet complete, we are unable to authorize release of any materials concerning our bidding processes.

The merger is scheduled to be completed within the next two months. After that time we will be working on creating a new bidding procedures handbook that will reflect the needs of our new organization. If you would like to request information at that time, we will be happy to help you in any way we can.

Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Kauri:

Thank you for your enthusiasm concerning the design of the new B416 Trans Unit. As this design has not yet been patented, however, we are unable to release any drawings or spec sheets concerning its interior machinery. We trust you will understand our inability to allow you access until we receive our patent confirmation.

We are however, mailing you a promotional brochure that does answer many of the general questions you had concerning the B416 and its potential to drastically change the market’s current trends. We hope this information will aide you in your research.

Please let us know if we can provide you with any other assistance.

Sincerely,
[/tab]
