Dear Heather and all,

please agree time that would be available for all, meaning you, Hunter and
Devon and I will adjust, today or tomorrow.

Also, I believe we should have firstly our internal team talk. And built a
joint position towards our service providers, meaning MLS and FTI.  ( From
this point I treat you , Heather and BSF as part of our internal Burisma
team-)

Therefore I believe it would be best if we discuss the points I raised
between our self and then transfer to the MLs and FTI my comments provided
earlier together with outcomes we will reach during our conversation and
let them come back with adjusted work program.

In addition to my yesterday comments please consider few additional ones
below with regard to FTI.

Following up to the 2 point as to FTI in my yesterday letter I believe that
we may suggest to FTI to cut few items in their Plan or reduce the spectrum
of work within some of Plan items.

Those Plan items that could be discussed are the following:

Training of Spokespeople

Introductory media meeting, could be reconsidered only to those ones that
will most probably result in tangible short and middle term outcomes tha I
mentioned yesterday

Introductory meetings with trade organizations, as above

Website and internet resource work, could be done in most parts by side
with involvement FTI for final revision only

The later changes could also allow us negotiate the reduction with regard
to offered 60 000$ monthly fee.

Together with that we could ask MLs and FTI accumulate their resources and
efforts while trip of mine to US in July and during and surrounding Board
Meeting in sep-oct in Washington.

Best, vadym
