PA 17055 Dear Connie: We have conducted an audit of our show gross booth sales since January of 1993 when we firs! entered imo our Contract for Show Management Agreement. In comparing gross booth sales. times the 7.5 % agreed upon rate, to the tOlal show management fees you received, we find an outslandlng balance of $3.601.66 owed to you, We had always tried to be pro.actlve in our fees to you in trying to keep them monthly as close as we could to prior years and In view of your dedicated service. I had always indicated to you that I would operate that way and some day we would have to draw the line and see where we were. It was always hoped that future performance would balance the equation and. in fact. exceed it to both the PRA's and your mutual satisfaction. Your termination necessilllted !hat this audit be completed to Insure compliance with the Agreement. Enclosed please find a check In the amount of $3,601.66. It is with sincere professional and personnel disappointment that this represents, at least for this particular venture, an end to our partnership. Thank you for 10 years of professional and dedicated service to the Pennsylvania Reslllurant Association. Kindest personal regards. ~/l~~( Mike McGovern Enclosure: ffl-fJr S ...

Legitimate invoices for work performed by you for our shows hove always been honored. Historically you were always paid for work perfonned. Our re-examination of the reimbursements did detennlne that we had Included II $1,760 bonus in your total show management foes paid from the TrI.Stato Show this year. This was clearly a bonus, as well as an'incentlve for tho Harrisburg Show, and.was inadvortently included in our provious calculations and I apologize for that, The officers, the board and the staff are very appreciative of the services you provided to PM over tlle/ast ten years. This is reflective in the high rogllrd in which you LIre hel and in the recognition which you constantly received on tho job you did. Tho Executive Committee's ten year recognition gift. WAS represontatlve oflhis appreciation. Your thirty plus shows with PRA and the Pennsylvania Bakers AaIlOC1lation represent, a milestone.> of service that probably will be very diffioult to match. PM has accomplished many new lnitiatlvtls and services as a result of the contribution of tile shows.
