I have one request to make, that in this document that I have, Exhibit G is missing, which describes Flatirons Funding.....Is there a page or part of the Exhibit G that I may have before the next meeting on July 15." In summary Mr. AtherIy referred to a conflict that appeared on page 14, paragraph 8A and paragraph 8E on page 16 and again on Line 8 subsection 2 on page 17 that had to do with the repayment of fees to Flatirons Funding from the GID 1-64.
