               Dear Noteholders,

               On behalf of the Green Mountain Firewood Company (GMF) family, I hope you and your loved ones are
               safe during these challenging times linked to Covid-19.

               While 2020 was a tumultuous year for businesses due to Covid-19, 2020 was the best year in GMF’s
               history.

               Since assuming my position as the President and CEO of GMF November 30, 2020, we immediately
               implemented auditing of our COGS, production capacity utilization, production efficiency, as well as the
               status of each key sales account. After completion of each audit, we reduced COGS 10%, increased
               production capacity 11%, reduced labor costs 5%, and improved the messaging on our product
               packaging all by the end of December and all without compromising product quality.

               By the end of December, we also made changes to our sales strategy and key account management
               which resulted in $206,640 of new sales for the month of December, but an additional $540,780 for the
               first six weeks of 2021 - all of which have been executed and invoiced. We have an additional $619,920
               of orders scheduled for the remaining six weeks of the first quarter of 2021. The changes in operational
               and sales management combined with closer relationships with our customers will result in GMF
               eclipsing sales revenue of $1,367,340 by the end of the first quarter of 2021.

               As you can see, 2020 confirmed the values and assumptions upon which GMF was incorporated were
               correct and in demand by retailers and consumers alike.
               Financial Results

               GMF crossed the chasm of a company with a unique but unproven product line and business model to a
               company with a product line and business model retailers and consumers alike began adopting. Key
               achievements and strong demand from retailers that commenced in December, 2020 are detailed below
               and provide a promising and profitable outlook for GMF in 2021 and beyond.

               Revenue: GMF increased its revenue from $49,916.35 in 2019 to $163,011.58 during 2020.

               Net Income: Net income was -$235,964.18 but this number is misleading. GMF incurred all COGS during
               the month of December 2020 for its new customer Home Depot, but GMF will not recognize the
               revenue from December sales of $206, 640 until late February 2021. If GMF applies the revenue from its
               first sales to Home Depot in mid-December 2020, GMF’s 2020 net income would come in at -$19,324.18
               – a significant improvement on 2019’s net loss of $204, 721.21.

               Expenses: The COGS-optimization initiatives we introduced to GMF in December 2020 reduced GMF’s
               COGS by nearly 10% during December alone.
