Re: U.S. Department of Commerce v. Association of Chinese TV Manufactures

Dear Johnson:

I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt thanks to you for your contribution to the successful litigation of the above referenced case. Our firm Chairman, Shouwen Li, and other partners have also asked me to pass on their sincere appreciation for your efforts in supporting Zhang, Wang & Lee, L.L.P. in this important undertaking.

During the last 14 months, you offered great experience and expertise at every stage of the litigation - from the most preliminary of case analyses, through preliminary proceedings and discovery activities, and on to the trial of the case before the picky judge. We have learned great a lot from you. Your firm’s state-of-the-art capabilities in document handling, retrieval and production, and the use of technology in the courtroom also held us in awe, to be frank.

On both a professional and a personal level, I really appreciated the time that the two of us were able to spend together for fun and reflection during down times. I benefited a lot from learning from the legal culture and law firm management in your part of the world (not to mention the things you taught me about the backhand on the squash court!).

Again, thanks so much for your kind assistance in the case. I have no doubt that it would not have been the success that it was without your participation.

Please keep in touch, and drop in and visit us whenever you are in this part of the world.

Very sincerely,

Zhang, Wang & Lee, L.L.P.

Deguang Zhang, Partner
