Sincerely. Sherilyn From: Howard Feldman [mailto:Feldman@api.org] Sent: Friday, May 18, 2007 11 :01 AM To: Gross, Sherilyn Cc: BenzConsort-OC @listserve. api. org Subject: RE: UCDHSC Supplemental Contract Dr. Gross, As you recall, I sent you and the Cinpathogen executives a written inquiry on Tuesday May 15 (attached). I still have not received a response. Critical work will be conducted by the UDHSC and its subcontractors (including EMBSI and another third party handling the data) in July and August, 2008 and it is unrealistic to have the grant terminate before those milestones are achieved. I suggest setting the end date for the grant extension until November 1, 2008, which is the last milestone in the Cinpathogen proposal. Do you need to revise your proposal to accommodate the efforts planned for the third quarter, 2008 or should we address it explicitly in the grant extension?

The initial proposal was sent on Thursday May 10th, 2007 followed by the revised proposal on Tuesday May 15th, 2007. As I'm sure you can appreciate, the University Grants and Contracts department will require several weeks for processing. SH ELL-MCCLU RG-058992
