The Stelle Group
September 22, 1975 Mr. Richard G. Raysa Attorney at Law 1011 Lake St., Suite 332 Oak Park, Illinois 60301 Re: Kieninger
vs. Kieninger Dear Mr. Raysa: Attached is an affidavit which contains information
in response to your request of September 2, 1975, on the case referred to
above. Since receipt of your letter, I have read the transcript of the last
court hearing on the case in which the judge referred several times to the
possibility of issuing a subpoena for The Stelle Group books and records.
Because of the transcript, I have agreed to provide you with the affidavit
you requested. I trust it will avoid the necessity of the court issuing a subpoena.
I personally regret that The Stelle Group is being drawn into the case in any
manner. Sincerely, Malcolm R. Carnahan President MRC/jw Encl. cc:

Group in the capacity of Vice President of the Board of Trustees, Voting
Trustee of Stelle Industries, Inc., Director of the Department of Education,
Director of Admissions, and various other lesser duties up until, and at
least one year prior to, August 12, 1975, on which date she resigned from the
positions of Trustee of The Stelle Group, Voting Trustee of Stelle
Industries, Inc., and Director of the Department of Education. She retained
the responsibility for Admissions and other duties such as conducting the
Public Meeting the first Sunday of each month, teaching Orientation classes,
a citizenship training course, handling correspondence to persons interested
in The Stelle Group, and coordinating the Home Economics program. Around the
2nd of September, she resigned from responsibility for the Public Meeting and
teaching Orientation. As of September 18th, she chose not to serve as a
candidate for election in Admissions. At the present time, her only remaining
responsibility is for the Home Economics program. 3. Financial assistance paid to Mrs. Gail
Kieninger for the above services is as follows: A. She received $3,510 salary from February 1,
1975 through July 31, 1975. (Since The Stelle Group owns the home in which
she lives and the residence serves as a parsonage or manse for The Stelle
Group, the above salary, which equals $585 per month, included $150 per month
housing allowance and $53 a month toward utilities.) A copy of the Employee
Time Summary and Payroll Report and of the check is attached. B. Since August 1, 1975, Mrs. Kieninger is not
receiving a salary from The Stelle Group. However, since her residence is the
parsonage or manse of The Stelle Group, The Stelle Group continues to pay for
the rent and utilities, which amounts to about $220 per month. Dated,
this 23rd day of September, 1975. MALCOLM H. CARNAHAN Subscribed
