May 19, 2006 — As you know, booking a room at the Mosfilm hotel is subject to booking fee (50% of the cost of the room for one night). Since we booked the vast majority of the rooms available, the hotel requested us to pay the booking fee for all the rooms in advance to complete the booking procedure. We made this payment on behalf of the WAFL3 participants using our reserve fund, so now we kindly request the participants who will stay at the Mosfilm hotel to reimburse us for these expenses while registering.
