Kris D. Kimble
Chief Executive Officer
The Green Hive
58 Eleventh Street
Hermosa Beach, CA 90254

Dear Mr. Kimble:

Morrison & Foerster LLP is a California-based, international law firm with more than 1000 lawyers. We are committed both to implementation of sustainability measures within our 16 offices and to working with our clients to help them understand and implement sustainable technologies for their business operations. See, for example,
http://www.mofo.com/about/Sustainability/14280.html.

We are excited by the opportunities presented by The Green Hive. There is clearly a need for a community-based resource that will facilitate access to information and educational materials and will serve as a forum for the exchange of ideas among people from multiple disciplines. In addition, based on our extensive experience working with emerging technology companies, we believe that The Green Hive has the potential to serve as an incubator for start up companies in the green space. We are eagerly anticipating the opening of The Green Hive's facility in Downtown Los Angeles and hope that similar facilities will be established throughout California. Each such facility should be focused on the issues and needs of their local and regional communities.

In short, we are pleased to support The Green Hive and its efforts.

Sincerely,
Morrison & Foerster LLP
Hillel T. Cohn
