Dear Mr. Hiller:
On behalf of Peru Copper Inc. (the “Company”), I write to confirm my telephone conversation today with Ms. Nasreen Mohammed in which I requested on behalf of the Company an extension of the period to respond to the staff’s comments to Friday, June 15, 2007 and Ms. Mohammed indicated that the staff would have no objection to the requested extension.
Please call me should you have any questions regarding this matter.
