The thing that worries me about this is that Penguin will see the stack of correspondence and get excited by the level of interest and see dollar signs, because interest = profile boost = money. We'd have to be very careful about what we said when we approached Penguin to make it clear it's the legal side that we're unhappy about (as karynthia suggests), not just that we're personally offended. Perhaps we need a pro forma letter?
