The firm sales amount of which you did not perform was 5000 mmbtu at $6.90. Gas daily reported that the weekend traded as low as $3.70. Therefore, we are assessing liquidated damages in the amount of US$16,000, the amount of which Lisa Feisst will invoice. I would like to ensure that this problem does not happen again. Wildgoose is not the swing market, and all transactions completed on your screen are firm as are all transactions, unless otherwise specified, with Wildgoose and Alberta Energy Company. We, at Alberta Energy Company consider this a serious matter, not the dollar figure associated but the implications in the California market place and are treating it as such. Our companies have had a longstanding relationship and we would like rectify this problem so we can regain trading together in the future. A letter outlining the above will be sent to yourself and John Lavorado for your records. Thanks
