documents currently in its possession relating to the defamatory statements made by Defendants, the damages suffered by Figg as a result of those statements and Figg’s status in connection with the Federal and State investigations described.

20 of the Request to Produce, Figg will produce all such documents currently in its possession, with the exception of privileged or work product documents, in the office of its counsel upon reasonable notice and at a mutually convenient date.

Respectfully submitted,
