While <br />my client does not recognize the validity of your client's claims regarding trespass or loss of use <br />or even diminution in market value, it does seem to us that $135,000 is probably close, if not <br />exceeds, the reasonable market value of your client's property. Accordingly, Mike indicated he <br />would pay Mr. Orr the sum of $135,000 in return for the conveyance of your client's <br />approximate 3 acres of property which has no access, but lies in between the Bull Seep and the <br />Fulton Ditch near the Hazeltine Mine. <br />Mr. Orr was not interested in that offer. Mike has authorized me to proposed $150,000. <br />This is a cash offer which would be available after the first of the year, but would have to be <br />accepted in writing on or before November 30, 2012. This offer would not be final until the <br />parties had executed a standard Purchase and Sale Agreement and a Release. This offer would <br />be contingent on AI's Board approval and there is no point in attempting to seek that unless your <br />client is interested in the proposal. <br />
