Honolulu, HI

Dear Sir:

Rodney Kimura, from the State Attorney Generalšs Office, recommended that I contact you.

I read in the Hawaiian Airlines employees web page that the Honolulu law firm of Watanabe, Ing and Kawashima wrote the bill you attached to the Homeland Security Act allowing for the merger of Hawaii's two airlines.

If this is in fact correct could you please confirm this?

Thank you for your help.

Respectfully yours,

Eric V. Toulon
