Qivision of Minerals & Geology Page 2 It is my understanding that reclamation of the MidCon property has been completed. I am writing to request that, as provided by the Settlement Agreement, DMG execute the document described above, releasing the property from any further reclamation obligation. If further work remains to be done on the MidCon property, would you please provide MidCon with written documentation as to what remains to be done, when it will be done, and the estimated cost of completion. In addition, as provided in the Agreement, would you please advise Lou LaGiglia, Trustee for Mid-Continent Resources, as to whether reclamation work in Coal Basin has been completed, whether funds remain, and the amount of remaining funds. In addition, the Settlement Agreement, at ¶18, provides, in pertinent part, that if MidCon completes certain reclamation work to DMG's satisfaction, "DMG will execute a document releasing MidCon .... from further reclamation requirements at the Coal Load Out " and in turn "Within fifteen days of receipt of such a document, MidCon will execute and deliver a document to DMG releasing any claim by MidCon again DMG for any further reclamation work or obligations by DMG at the Coal Load Out. " Settlement Agreement Page 10. MidCon would like to obtain, and I am requesting by this letter, the above described document acknowledging completion of reclamation at the loadout site. We are, of course, pleased and relieved that the difficult challenges which confronted DMG, the Mined Land Reclamation Board and Mid-Continent Resources in getting the former mine site reclaimed have been met and successfully resolved. MidCon, as property owner, is of course the beneficiary of reclamation and is appreciative of your efforts to complete work in timely fashion. Thank you.
