Questions below refer to the following e-mail and announcement.

To: Cody Brown <cbrowni@fobia.com>

From: Sarah Cook <sarahcook@concave.com>

Date: May 13

Subject: FIN conference

Dear Mr. Brown,

It was a great pleasure to meet you in Hong Kong, although I'm sorry we couldn't afford the time to talk about your plans for the overhaul of the Finance Department. I totally understand your concerns about employing too many managers. When we expanded our department, we found that increasing the number of management and adding another level to the department decreased, not increased, the communication. If you're interested, I would be more than happy to discuss some of the problems and solutions we found. Before that, I hope you can attend the finance conference in July as some seminars address these issues. Drake Century is running a seminar on managing finance department expansion. This is a new addition to the schedule (see attachment).

I look forward to seeing you soon, and I hope that you do come to the conference.

Best wishes,

Sarah Cook
