Civil Action: 5: 1 3-cv-28160 (S.D.W.Va.) Dear Messrs. Ellis, Hussell, and Wooton: The United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia ("Court") has imposed sanctions against Justice Energy Company, Inc., in the above matter in the amount of $1,230,000. Those sanctions have been affirmed by the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. Justice Energy Company, Inc., has yet to pay the sanctions imposed by the Court. Based on my conversation with you, as counsel for Justice Energy Company, Inc., there was some suggestion that Justice Energy Company, Inc., may not have the financial resources to pay the sanctions imposed by the Court. As a result, I am enclosing a Financial Statement For Business which requires Justice Energy Company, Inc., to furnish certain information so that the United States can evaluate Justice Energy Company, Inc.'s ability to pay the sanctions imposed by the Court. Please read the Financial Statement For Business carefully and supply the requested information. The Financial Statement For Business must be completed by the appropriate official of Justice Energy Company, Inc. Please note that making false statements in the completion of the Financial Statement For Business is punishable by imprisonment and/or a fine under 18 U.S.C. $ 1001. I need the completed Financial Statement For Business to be returned to our office in ten business days. If Justice Energy Company, Inc., needs additional time to complete the Financial Statement For Business, please contact me so that we can discuss an appropriate extension. Justice Energy Company, Inc., should have the requested information readily available. I would anticipate that any needed extension would be brief in duration.
