Monica, Thank you. If you feel you are up to speed, then let's not meet for the sake of meeting. I really just wanted to extend the opportunity to answer any questions regarding our initiative as you and Karen came on board, and to make introductions with our team. We look forward to working with you and I am sure we will communicate again

soon.

Hi Pete, Thank you for your e-mail. Since, I was on the conference call with Ben and Jerry's at the beginning of the month, right now I don't have any questions. However, I have sent your message to Julius Banks and Dave Godwin, our technical leads on the submission, to see if they had any follow up questions. I will get back to you asap as I hear from them. Conversely, do you have questions or comments which you or your team would like to discuss with us? Looking forward to working with your team as well. Cheers, Monica

Hello Monica and Karen,

Congratulations on your new assignments! I am the engineering manager at Ben &Jerry's and wanted to take the opportunity to briefly introduce our HC Cabinet initiative and the team from B&J/Unilever that is leading it. Alan Gerard, Andrea Asch, Andrew Shakalis and I met with Margaret, Dave and Julius last month at the EPA offices to present our goals and experience with HC ice cream cabinets.

As I am sure Margaret has briefed you, our objectives for this program
are: 1) To prepare a successful SNAP application for the US introduction of Hydrocarbon ice cream freezers with less than 150 g refrigerant charge. Work on this is in progress. 2) Conduct a market test of these cabinets in the US over the next two years commencing in late June, 2008. A letter outlining the necessary parameters of this test is being prepared per the requirements of the SNAP test market exemption.

Ben & Jerry's is planning to draw on the successful experience of our parent company, Unilever, with safely placing and operating over 250,000 HC cabinets worldwide over the past four years. Alan Gerard presented a lot of the data around this experience during our visit, which I assume has been forwarded to you in your new role. If either of you would like an electronic copy of this presentation, please let me know and we can have one forwarded to you.We would like extend the opportunity to answer any questions you may have about our program goals, timing, submittals etc. Might you both be available this Thursday (any time) or Friday in the a.m. for a brief phone conference? Please let me know if there is a time that works best for you. We can arrange the call from here.

We look forward to working with you on this initiative and hope to speak with
you soon.
