　　Dear Sirs,

　　Thank you for your L/C No. 5676. After checking the L/C, we have found quite a few discrepancies, and would therefore request you to make the following amendments:

　　(1) The amount in words should read “Say Canadian Dollars Two thousand Seven Hundred And Fifty Only”.

　　(2) The commission should be 2%, not 3%.

　　(3) “130% of invoice value” should read “110% of invoice value”.

　　(4) Delete “by direct steamer” and put in “allowing transshipment”.

　　(5) The Credit is valid until “January 15, 2003” instead of “January 15, 2002”.

　　As the date of shipment is drawing near, please send us the L/C amendments as soon as possible so that we can effect shipment in time.

　　Yours truly,
