TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Gan Starling has been employed by Benteler Automotive Corporation since May 7, 1990. Gan's most recent position was as a Associate Engineer for the Kalamazoo facility located in Galesburg, Michigan.

During his employment, Gan was a conscientious, dedicated, and hard working associate. He was never afraid to put in long hours and hard work to help things run smoothly. Gan showed a willingness to adapt to varying conditions and a desire to succeed in any challenge set forth. Throughout his career with Benteler, he has been a dependable and respected associate.

It was truly unfortunate that due to the recent fluctuations in the automobile industry, coupled with our current slacking economy, we were forced to eliminate Gan's current position.

I would be pleased to answer any additional questions you may have regarding Gan. Please feel free to contact me at your convenience.

Sincerely,

Geri Gasperut
Human Resources Manager
