Filed August 18, 2006
Response Letter Dated September 8, 2006
File No. 0-10089
Dear Mr. Hiller and Ms. Towner:
We are in receipt of your letter dated October 11, 2006, in which you offer comments on the above referenced report and correspondence. Your letter requests that Unioil (the “Company”) respond to your comments within ten (10) business days, (i.e., on or before October 25, 2006) or advise you when a response will be provided. Due to conflicting travel and work schedules of the legal and accounting professionals who must assist Unioil in that response, we believe that we will be able to respond to the comments in your letter of October 11, 2006 by Wednesday, November 8, 2006.
Very truly yours,
LATHROP & GAGE L.C.
