Dear Mr. Chico,

I recently sent inquiries to you and to your associates Paul Vallas and Carlos Azcoitia PhD regarding
your affiliations and promotion of the Save-A-Life Foundation (SALF), a Chicago-area nonprofit
reportedly under investigation by the IL Attorney General's Charitable Trust Bureau.

Despite multiple attempts, to date I've only received a response from Dr. Azcoitia. If your lack of
response was an oversight, I'd appreciate receiving your answers to the three questions I asked you.
I'd also appreciate your answers to these questions:

1) According to SALF, you served as a member of their organization's Board of Directors. Is that
accurate? If so, please provide details.

2) According to SALF, in a speech you presented at their organization's annual conference (at which
your wife Sunny also appeared as a participant), you stated that you “will fight for the SALF programs
and that their training is not a luxury, it’s a necessity.” Is this accurate?

A SALF press release quoted your wife as saying, "My husband Gery was instrumental in bringing
SALF to the Chicago Public Schools."

3) Would you please ask your wife if she was accurately quoted and let me know what she says?

4) Do you consider the quote to be accurate or inaccurate? Please explain.

Thanks for your continued attention and I look forward to your reply. In the event I don't receive a reply
from you in the next few days, I'll follow-up with Mrs. Chico.

Sincerely,

Lee Cary
Little Elm, TX
