Re: trading agreement

Mark:

What is our policy about giving on arbitration. This is a federal entity
that has said they cannot agree to arbitration. They have agreed to the
language set forth in the document attached below.

Please advise.

I know this will cause delays, but this agency does not have authority to
enter into binding arbitration. Apparently some agencies do have that
authority. I have attached 2 files. One is with the changes highlighted and
the other is a clean copy of what we would be willing to sign. Please let me
know what sort of timeframe I can expect on a response to this proposal.

Thanks - Kass Portra
