Dear Dr. Kissinger,

In remembrance of the very pleasant time we spent with you on the occasion of Chase
Germany's 50th anniversary, my wife Ines and I would like to send you the enclosed
photographs and hope they serve you as a souvenir.

It was indeed a pleasure meeting you and we hope that one day it may be possible to see each
other again, either here in Germany or perhaps abroad.

At the same time we would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you on your
forthcoming birthday on May 27th and sincerely wish you all the very best as well as good
health and success in all your many activities.

With best personal regards,

Grüneburgweg 2, 60322 Frankfurt am Main, Telefon (069) 7158 25 00, Telefax (069) 7158 27 50
