Dear Mr. Kawamura;

Chief Ominayak has informed us that Daishowa's clarification of their May 20, 1998 promise adequately addresses the concerns of the Lubicon Lake Indian Nation.

We understand that Daishowa, its related companies and their subcontractors, will not harvest or purchase timber from the approximately 4,000 square mile (10,000 square kilometre) area identified in the attached map included with your June 9th letter until Lubicon lands and claims, including resource management and harvesting rights, as well as fish, wildlife and environmental concerns, have been settled.

As a result, we will be winding down our boycott of Daishowa products effective immediately.

We expect, accordingly, that Daishowa's appeal of MacPherson J.'s judgement will be abandoned.

Sincerely,

Kevin Thomas
Friends of the Lubicon

CC. Chief Bernard Ominayak, Lubicon Lake Indian Nation
