| Good morning, Mr. Vance. |
| This is Scott Elope from the Washington, DC office, |
| and I am just wanting to confirm your presence at the final board meeting of the year in December. |
| The meeting is scheduled for the 3rd, |
| and when we last spoke you said there was a chance you may not be able to attend. |
| I just wanted to get some clarification if that was still the case. |
| If you are not able to make the meeting in person, |
| I can arrange a conference call, so you can still contribute. |
| We have a couple of times that could work, |
| so I will send you an email with the possible times. |
| I apologize if the times are not convenient, |
| please remember there is a big time difference. |
| I will also attach the agenda for the meeting, so you know the schedule. |
| I look forward to hearing back from you. Thanks! |
