Dear Gentlemen:
Pursuant to the agreement we reached in connection with the challenges made to the discovery objections filed on behalf of Ethyl Corporation in the above-referenced matter, and as a formal supplement to those discovery responses previously filed herein, as well as to any and all other discovery responses made by the company in this case, I am enclosing documents bearing Bates Stamp numbers ETH00002472 through ETH00003676.
Additionally, this will also serve to confirm that the documents previously provided by Steve Rice ofthis firm on behalf of Defendant Ethyl Corporation are to be considered part of this formal supplementation of Ethyl documents in response to the Plaintiff's discovery requests. Still further, we are in receipt of CD-R.om disks produced by.your firm cataloging Ethyl Corporation documents obtained in other litigation. Although it is very likely there is a great deal of duplication in the documents previously provided to your office as well as the documents attached hereto, Defendant Ethyl Corporation reserves the right to rely on any of the documents imaged on the CD's by your office to the extent they are Ethyl documents and actually obtained from the files of Ethyl Corporation.
