I would be shocked if HH did not have insurance for the line repairs. We
should ask their atty about this.

On the monies they owed us under the gas lift contract, we gave them until May 10th to respond or we would institute litigation. The attorney for HH, Jim Williams, called me last week and basically laid it out that HH sold all of its assets to White Oak back in December (and we already had been so informed by White Oak), that HH doesn't have any assets left and we could go after the principals if we wanted but they probably wouldn't even file an answer and we could just get a judgment and renew it every ten years for as long as we pleased. He offered a flat settlement amount of $15,000 on our claim of $35,284.95. Steve has given me the authority to accept the offer but after doing so will ask about settling the $11,000.00 claim for the line repairs. Quite honestly, I don't hold out much hope of HPL recovering anything more than $15,000 but that is $15,000 more than we have right now. Also, since Gerald was working on the gas lift debt, I've asked him to notify credit and put HH and its principals on the credit risk list so that we don't do any more deals with them.

Had we decided to abandon our efforts due to their adamant denial of liability and refusal to pay? It's really not enough money to go to court over. Pls advise.

Here are the details: Date of invoice: 12/9/98 Amount: $11,775.86 Re: Cost incurred to repair your 2" pipeline known as Fagin-O'Connor in Victoria County, Texas. The invoice was sent to the attention of Robert Lemax. Before I attempt to call them to collect, I thought I would contact you to see if there are any outstanding issues with Houston Hydrocarbons, such as an impending deal, a bankruptcy, etc... Let me know if you have any insight. Thanks for your assistance. Meredith Powers 3-9662
