I am requesting an opportunity to obtain a copy of the latest Kelmar Associates, LLC ("Kelmar") Work in Progress Report in connection with entities under unclaimed property reporting audit by the Rhode Island Office of the General Treasurer.  Please include the following information for each entity - Name of Entity, Entity FEIN, Type of Audit (property type), Last Activity Date, and Status.
