Greetings Group Members and all CMKX shareholders,
We close another year with the fate of our stock still up in the air. I wish as a 2005 parting message that I could give you any information that would confirm any of the rumors swirling around but I cannot. I am glad to tell you we have developed a well oiled machine here to tabulate and document the certs that are being sent in. We have been told that many certs went back to the brokerage houses from the transfer agent this week. We are prepared to receive them in our system when the shareholders fax them to us.
We hear many reasons being offered by the brokers and the transfer agent for continuing delays in getting your certs to you. Ultimately, even the righteous excuses which we are hearing now will not be acceptable. It is the responsibility of the brokers to get these certs to you. I have been told there are some brokers who have not even requested certs from the transfer agent as of this date. We are keeping good notes and documenting our files on the responses from the brokerage houses. I would like to compliment Southwest Securities for their response to their customers. Many of the CMKX shareholders here in East Texas went through a local broker at Southwest Securities. Most of us received our certs through certified mail this week. Some shareholders admitted they had been too busy to request their certs but they received them from Southwest Securities without even requesting them. My office called our broker and he confirmed that Southwest Securities would be sending a copy of all certs being held in IRA accounts direct to our office for entry into our system. By sending copies to us, they have not “taken the securities out of their customers’ accounts”. We still obtain the information we need so their customer can receive their Entourage stock. This excuse will no longer fly as a reason for refusing to give you a valid cert. We commend Southwest Securities for the prompt manner in which they have responded to the needs of their customers.
We were advised today that the task force would shortly have in its hands a current NOBO. I cannot explain why it has taken this long to obtain the current NOBO but we look forward to using this information to expand the notice campaign to all CMKX shareholders. Folks, don’t shoot the messenger. I am very much aware of the opinions that many people have concerning the adequacy of notice to all of the shareholders. I am one of those people and I have made my concerns known to the other members of the task force and Urban as well. I do believe we will see increasing work on this front in the next week or ten days. I have been told by Mr. Stoecklein that the task force hopes to have physical possession of the Entourage certs in the next few days.
I wish I had something of significance to share with you, but I simply do not at this time. I am reminded of an old farmer that said “When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on.”
I want to thank all of you that have passed along your holiday greetings. It has been a pleasure to work for you this year. I sincerely believe we will answer all critics when we are able to accurately account for all the CMKX stock sold in the market place. My only message to you is to stay united on this front. The most feared opponent of those with naked short positions is a united shareholder group. By this point in the life of most penny stocks, the shamed investors have left the scene and written off their investment. The naked shorters are hoping that history will repeat itself in this stock. I am betting that this group is different. With what we have all learned about the market and the forces that drive the market, we owe it to the public to take a stand. I received a federal express package today showing where someone had spent $21 for the federal express cost to this office and had paid $40 for their cert to do their part in this cert pull. The cost of the stock was almost as much as the cost of obtaining the cert and sending it to our office. This person had a rather small position in this stock but understood the importance of his participation in our efforts. With this attitude, this group will succeed.
I wish all of you a happy and prosperous New Year. Be safe in your travels. I will be in touch next year.
Onward,
Bill
