<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=3 face=Arial>After our initial checking, we found
the name were similar to your company's, so we need to check with you whether
your company has authorized that company to register these names. If you
authorized this, we will finish the registration at once. If you did not
authorize, please let us know within 7 workdays, so that we will handle this
issue better. Out of the time limit we will unconditionally finish the
registration for Leinon Investment Co., Ltd.</FONT><FONT
