A congratulation letter from NCC for "COTTON CHINA"

January 14, 2010 Madam Gao Fang Executive Vice President China Cotton Association Dear Madam Gao, First, please accept our most heartfelt congratulations on the successful registration of ?°Cotton China?± - on behalf of myself and the National Cotton of America. History has shown that a unique logo is very helpful in creating consumer brand recognition and strengthening the producers?? understanding of the importance of cotton quality. It can also help create normative criterions and improve competitiveness. The ?°Cotton China?± will help to identify and promote Chinese cotton products and cotton consumption overall. It will create a natural and environmental friendly lifestyle to the consumers and also help generate demand for generic cotton products. ?°China Cotton?± will inspire everyone who works in this industry to work together, and we believe that the Chinese cotton industry is moving on to a bright new page in its history. NCC looks forward to working with you on our win-win targets and bringing Sino-American cotton cooperation forward into this new period! Yours sincerely, Mark Lange President & CEO National Cotton Council of America
