s{ Mr* Franklin T. Hamilton Page 3 January 18, 1954 I \ is only interested in the executed originals ©f Rule 9 Contracts where there are outstanding unrefunded amounts due at the time of the sale date, and the District has no interest in such Rule 9 Contracts as have beenpald off by refunds or under which no refunds are due because of the time limit of ten years in such contracts. I believe you have a copy of one of these Rule 9 Contracts and know that they provide for refunds for a period of ten years, unless prior to the end of the ten-year period the refunds have cleaned up any outstanding obligation to refund under the terms of the contract. In connection with these Rule 9 Contracts, as you know, some of them lave been assigned to banks and other people and refunds are being made direct to such third parties rather than to the original party t® the contract, and I presume you will want the originals of such assignments. After you have had a chance to review the provisions of Section 1 of Exhibit G, and the references therein to the basic contract, I would be glad to have you advise me whether you concur in these views, ©r what additional contracts, etc. you think should be furnished to the District under the pro­visions of Exhibit G and the basic agreement, in order that I may have a list prepared of all such outstanding documents and send it to ©ur auditor so that he may photostat sueh originals and be ready to turn over the originals to the District. Yours very truly, E. E. Bennett EEBips
