I like the message and agree that communication is critical at this time. Should we go right out and say that no one will be affected next week (more artfully phrased of course)? I believe that is the right way to go (no terminations Thanksgiving week), so I'd like to go ahead and say it. Michelle

Eric & Michelle,

Fran & Shanna would like to send this out to all EIM and EGM employees today from their respective OTC. David and I have reviewed and agree that we should send. We would like your thoughts and/or suggestions.

Thanks,

Robert

FYI, I drafted this for Bowen to send out to All EIM employees in an effort to allay their fears that terminations will be
occurring either today or next next.

This week, each business unit has been asked to identify the optimal structure and resources for EIM on a going forward basis..
While the review is not complete, we are close to finalizing decisions surrounding the business and the employees associated with them.

Until the final decisions have been made, I ask for your continued patience. You will be notified at the appropriate time regarding the future
of the team.

Please take the opportunity to enjoy the time with your family next week at Thanksgiving and know that we are
working hard on finalizing all details.
