Re: Gerald D. McFarlen                                            May 8, 2015

To Whom This May Concern:

Mr. Gerald McFarlen is a patient under my medical care. His medical conditions have
recently made necessary diagnostic medical tests and changes in medications.

I would respectfully request that he be accommodated in having additional time to meet
deadlines in his practice of law as his conditions, required medical treatment and care
necessitate some degree of interference with his usual activities and time schedule.

If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your
consideration.

Sincerely,

       Signed electronically.

Christopher B. Ticknor, M.D.
