United States Forest Pike and San Isabel South Park Ranger District <br />Department of Service National Forests P. O. Box 219 <br />USDA Agriculture Cimarron and Comanche 320 Highway 285 <br />�lli National Grasslands Fairplay, CO 80440 <br />(719) 836-2031 <br />Fax (719) 836 -3875 <br />www.fs.usda.gov /psicc <br />USDA <br />File Code: 2810 <br />Date: September 10, 2012 <br />Donald Oswald CERTIFIED MAIL — RETURN <br />1331 South Marion Street RECEIPT REQUESTED <br />Denver, CO 80210 NUMBER: <br />Dear Mr. Oswald, <br />As you are aware, Kevin Lawrence owned and operated the Sara Rose and Sara Rita Unpatented <br />Mining Claims, both of which are located on the South Park Ranger District, Pike and San Isabel <br />National Forests. Kevin was issued a reclamation bond by the Forest Service of $2,211.00, <br />which he paid on November 22, 2010; whereupon, his Plan of Operations to operate on the Sara <br />Rose and Sara Rita was authorized on January 4, 2011. Subsequently, he sold the claims to Mike <br />Bergmann, and as of June 28, 2012, the transfer has been completed, with Mr. Bergmann now <br />holding the bond and Plan of Operations for the Sara Rose and Sara Rita Unpatented Mining <br />Claims. <br />The reclamation bond which the Forest Service held for Kevin's operations on the Sara Rose and <br />Sara Rita may now be refunded as a result of the completed transfer. In order to process the <br />refund, I need the following: <br />• Documentation that whomever is to receive the refund is authorized to act on behalf of <br />the estate of Kevin Lawrence. <br />• A written request from the authorized agent asking to refund the reclamation bond. <br />• A copy of a Death Certificate from the Colorado Department of Public Health and <br />Environment. <br />Once I have received the documentation, I will proceed with the refund. <br />Also, according to our files, you are listed as the Manager for Sara Ray Silver Mining, LLC <br />(Company) in the LLC Operating Agreement. As such, you are probably aware that Kevin <br />Lawrence had paid a bond under the Sara Ray Silver Mining, LLC company name, in order to be <br />authorized to operate on the Ajax and Ibex Unpatented Mining Claims. The Plan of Operations <br />was under Kevin's name as the Operator and was authorized until December 31, 2013. Upon his <br />death, the Plan of Operations is no longer valid. It is my understanding that the Company is still <br />interested in mining the claims. If that is so, I would like to suggest a meeting with you and <br />other Company members to outline the Forest Service process. I will look forward to hearing <br />from you or another Company representative when you have decided to pursue your mining <br />interests. <br />Caring for the Land and Serving the People <br />i.
