Dear Mr. Farmer; Mr. Guttman; Ms. Muranaka; Attorney General Mukasey, and All Concerned:

Please advise me immediately if this Exhibit contains any "PROTECTED SUBJECT MATTER" which is prohibited by ORDER of Judge David A. Ezra.

Although I believe that Judge Ezra's Order constitutes a prior restraint of my FREEDOM OF SPEECH, f you and Judge Ezra would like to put an end to this unconstitutional approval process, then I would again suggest that we, and our respective insurance carriers (including Chubb Group, XL Insurance, and Island Insurance Co. ) make a good-faith effort to reach a global settlement of this case through confidential negotiation or mediation.

If you and your insurance carriers are NOT willing to attempt to negotiate or mediate a settlement, however, then I ask that, in light of all the new facts presented in these Exhibits and witness descriptions, you advise me whether or not you intend to OBJECT to my filing a Motion to reopen this case.

Your immediate reply is requested. If I do not receive a response from you within 15 days, I will assume that you have found no "prohibited subject matter" in these updated pages, and that you will NOT file any objections to my Motion to reopen this case.

Very truly yours,

Bobby N. Harmon, CPCU, ARM
