UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

The Robert C. Byrd United States Courthouse 300 Virginia Street, Suite 7602 Charleston, West Virginia 25301 ROBERT BRUCE KING United States Circuit Judge

June 17, 2010 The Honorable Bobby R. Baldock Chair, Committee on Financial Disclosure Judicial Conference of the United States Suite 2-301 One Columbus Circle, N.E. Washington, D.C. 20544
Re: 2009 Financial Disclosure Report Your Letter of June 8, 2010

Dear Judge Baldock: I write in response to your letter of June 8, 2010, concerning my 2009 report, which was submitted on April 26, 2010. First, I appreciate and thank you for your advice with respect to the disclosure of our personal residence mortgage. I also appreciate your referring me to, page 32 of the filing instructions, and I now recognize that the second bullet point supports your statement. Second, with respect to Part VII, page 5, lines 31 - 34 of my 2009 report, I respond to your letter as follows: Lines 33 and 34: The identification mineral interests in "Doddridge County, WV" (line 33) and "Wetzel County, WV" (line 34) was made to satisfy the request made in your earlier letter of July 20, 2009 (concerning my 2008 report), to "disclose all cities or counties of West Virginia in which each of these interests are located." The 2008 report had identified mineral interests as being in "Tyler and other counties, WV, and those "other counties" are Doddridge and Wetzel. You will note that Tyler County, WV is also identified on line

King, Robert B.

The Honorable Bobby R. Baldock June 17, 2010 Page 2

27, with related cross-references to lines 28 through 32. In sum, I submit that lines 33 and 34 comply with your request of July 20, 2009, and with the filing instructions.
Line 31: The identification of BD Oil Gathering Corp. is made in Line 31 to identify the entity from which received in royalties in 2009, on certain of her mineral interests. In further assessing this disclosure, ! note that this entity was not identified on my reports for 2005 through 2008, although had received small royalty payments from BD Gathering in those years. Her payments from BD Gathering in those four years were as follows: 2005 2006 2007 2008

Prior to 2005, Gathering.

did not receive royalty payments from BD

Line 32: The identification of Texas Keystone, Inc. on Line 32 of the 2009 report reflects the first occasion has received royalty payments from that entity. The sum received by her in 2009 was which should be reflected by the income code of"B." Line 32 is thus erroneous in reflecting the income code of "A" ($1,000 or less). An "X" in column A might have been appropriate (see page 42 of the filing instructions).

Third, I have ascertained that an additional entity made small royalty payments to on her mineral interests in the years 2005 through 2008. More specifically, Petroedge Resources (WV) LLC made royalty payments to her as follows: 2005 2006 2007 2008 (using the name "Petrolux, Agent")

In about 2008, Petroedge apparently changed its name to Quest Eastern Resource. royally payments from any such entity.

has never received

The Honorable Bobby R. Baldock June 17, 2010 Page 3 Fourth, I appreciate your patience and assistance with respect to my reports. For the record, I hereby confirm that :~:, 5~1 is sentimentally attached to these minor mineral interests, which she acquired on the death of iii ] and which were passed through to her from ! ] For that reason, she has no desire to relinquish these interests, which have become a complicating factor in the preparation of these reports.

Finally, if my reports should be more formally amended, I will be pleased to do so. In any event, this letter should also be considered as an amendment to all such reports as are relevant. Furthermore, it may be fully released to the public with my consent.
If there are further questions or comments, please let me know.
