Have received and reviewed the Plaintiff's First Amended Petition relative to 
the above.  Please note this matter is subject to Gulf Company's insurance, 
subject to the following reservation of rights, given the allegation of  
"personal injury" which is defined in part as:

Oral or written publication of material that slanders or libels a person or 
organization or disparages a person's or organizations goods, products or 
services.

As such, we would have an obligation to defend the entire lawsuit, even the 
allegations associated with "breach of contract".   Our obligation to defend 
this matter in its entirety would cease in the event the covered count of 
slander and defamation were to be dismissed.

With respect to indemnity, we will only respond to an award for damages which 
(1) flows from the allegation of slander and defamation, and (2) which were 
not made with knowledge that they were false.

Our obligation to pay defense costs begins today.  Please advise if counsel 
has already been retained given what has been submitted for review is the 
Plaintiff's First Amended Petition.  If counsel has already been retained, 
then they will need to be issued our standard Engagement Agreement, and 
should be instructed to begin a new billing cycle today.  Please see that 
they provide you with a copy of their entire file.

Please call in the event you have any questions.  I trust you will share this 
email with the appropriate operating company, and counsel for Mr. Randall 
Maffett so they are aware of same.
