RE: Blue Flame Medical LLC - Wire Transfer
We have not been answering Mike Gula's calls and this got through b/c the name was different. He asked for the President,
then compliance and Angeli said everyone is working remotely and she wasn't sure how to reach anyone so she got his
information. He kept pressing, but she just said she didn't know how he could reach anyone. Mike has been calling non-stop.
