Dear Sirs:

We refer to our purchase contract no. 954.

Under the terms of the contract, delivery is scheduled for May 2000. We would now like to bring delivery forward to March/April 2000.

We realize that the change of delivery date will probably inconvenience you and we offer our sincere apologies. We know that you will understand that we would not ask for earlier delivery if we did not have compelling reasons for doing so.

In view of our longstanding, cordial commercial relationship, we would be very grateful if you would make a special effort to comply with our request.

We look forward your early reply.

Yours faithfully,

Tony Smith

Chief Seller
