Hiall;didnt send yesterday cause I am on vacation. Will send today and with all the questions. Sorry bout that.
I will generate a new email tonite with the questions.
OK understood....so I will ask him in the next emails to him. These are the questions I need from you all.
Another assumption. Nothing was said about the Navy contract other than I asked if I could request information about it. This is why I try to be careful so as not to misinterpret what was discussed, which was really very introductory. I recommend not reading things into a forum unless we here it directly as a quote from Johan B. I am not vouching for my interpretations. I can state without reservation that I have made contact with Johan and that he is willing to respond to questions. Thats it. Please dont read things in that were not said as it detracts from our mission to receive direct coms from Johan. Everything I say is what interpreted from an early morning phone call and I may be wrong.
OK, but I thought that there were only 29,000,000 shares issued. Anyway, it appears that there is much to learn still and we are at least talking.
Hi All;
Well I just got off the phone after a very pleasant and informative discussion with Johan B. He filled me in quite articulately on the ups and downs of the company as well as some insight into the current status.
He pointed out to me that until the delist he could not discuss the Company outside of the SEC regulations and that is why the radio silence for so long. He indicated that since the delisting he is no longer bound by that and he would try to respond to proven shareholders via email. However he also indicated that he wouldnt be able to answer hundreds of emails of various levels of courtesy. I dont blame him.
We talked for about 1/2 hour and I must say he was very open and informative. I continue to be in contact and will communicate with him over the next weeks.
One final note is that many shares of TMPS are now in the hands of a Company called Santiago (International or some such). A final note to the questions I asked him indicated that he would let me know once he was able to tell me any information.
He described to me the precarious financial position of the Company quite openly but on the positive side it appears TMPS is hanging by a thread, but still viable.
I also asked hem what it would be OK to say to protect his privacy and confidence and those questions will be OK'd as I ask him.
I hope that is a good start and let me know what some of the questions are that you have, or email him with your respectful and substantiated emails. He indicated that he was glad I sent him all the substantiating information because there is little identity when it comes to the internet.
All in all, I am optimistic but its definitely a difficult environment.
At this point I know just as much as anyone here, but we are starting to talk.
Always a good sign when people talk. He just indicated that he wanted to call. When I sent my data to him I also sent my phone numbers and he called first thing today....it was just a prelude to meeting on the phone call. I am cautiously optimistic but there are still many stars that need to align. Will keep ya posted.
Thanks....I will post after I talk to Johan. I hope its an encouraging call for all of us.
Im in St. Paul tonite to visit son and then off to Lake Vermillion I think for fishing. I plan to call Johan in the AM. Thank you for offer.
via a European number ....miss typed.
And to make matters additionally interesting, I received both an email and a telephone call from Johan B today. Unfortunately I was flying to Minnesota and couldnt make contact. I left him a message on his phone and also sent an email to his email. I received a call via an
They are 6 hours ahead and I thought a call in the am would be best. So tomorrow morning I will call him. I received the call from a European phone number and no I will not publish it unless I receive his permission. Courtesy you know.
Wingtrade is correct. This not over by a long shot.
Hi all, just a note that now I am in waiting mode just like you. I have been requested to publish his email. I will ask Johan B if that is OK. I will ask him when he responds to the last contact I sent him in which I provided my shareholdings, CV data and drivers license to prove that I was a sincere and valid shareholder. As soon as I hear back I will let everyone know. If I dont hear back I will continue my due diligenceas promised. Let me know of any additional suggestions.
Over n Out
I cannot give you those facts until Johan allows me to release a personal email to me. If I released it I would be violating his privacy. Cant you see that. I will ask him first chance I get.
Yeah strange....Dude. Positivity Dude.
Even 70 year old Dudes have feelings.....thanx!
Oh in my business dealings I never underestimate the competition. They know. And thats why I try to be as straight as I can be. Another thing that no one has brought up is what number of shares do we all really have. Since AWE was so angry, he stated he had nearly 400,000. By my calculations and guesstimates this board may be in possession of several million shares total, maybe more. That could be very significant.
This board telegraphs everything, but thats OK, because all we are asking for is a fair result. Have you read Sun Tzu?
Yes, exactly.
I dont have his ear, rather I received a response, after going through the proper steps acceptable in the business world. I learned long ago to respect everyone and I know they monitor this board. They want to know as much about us as we want to know about them. I will ask 1 simple question. Did any officially request a shareholder meeting at any time? If not that makes us remiss.
Im an IT engineer and believe in precision. I really appreciate that you know exactly what I am doing and why.
Thanks Bob....sounds like you know the ropes to. If you recall the requests I sent they were very specific and revolved around our rights as shareholders. You know that documentation is everything and grousing is not a strategy for success. You know what Im doing and what we all should be doing is working together. Its simple we have to start proving our due diligence.
Oh and I will try to answer what little I know, but I really have kept you all pretty informed.
Like I said (LoserTrying2Win) I could but I wont for all the legitimate reasons I stated and if you have nothing to contribute could you please just be patient.
For all you other kind people here is the status:
1. I had to update my account cause I used the max comments on investorshub LoL.
2. I responded via email to Johan Bergendorff personally.
3. His email to me requested the following before he responds to all the requests I had in the email:
3.1 Provide the brokerage that holds my shares and the specific accounts.
3.2 Provide the numbers of shares that I hold in each of these accounts.
3.3 Provide proof of who I am.
4. I responded with an email moments ago that included the following data. For obvious reason I will not include my personal identifiable information to anyone at this point.
4.1 I introduced myself and a bit of my CV, my degree, school and line of work.
4.2 I gave him some background of myself as an IT developer and company Pres.
4.3 I made images of excerpts from my stock accounts which verified the brokerage and number of shares I owned and/or managed.
4.4 I made an image of my drivers license to substantiate some of my personal data.
4.5 I thanked him for his response to me and look forward to hearing from him.
That is the current status. Its all I know at the moment other than TMPS shows as aninvalid symbol in one of my accounts but not the other two. So there you have it. Thats what I know and I hope you understand that I wont publish a private correspondence until the other party (Johan) OKs it and I certainly wont be able to publish my personal information.
Now Im just going to wai like the rest of us.
You have no idea how I appreciate that but I do this for all of us and need everyone to help. Maybe the charity should go to pink sheet stock trading training. Do you all realize that we are in uncharted waters and are all in the same rowboat. Also; I believe what you said about the Johans possible just having made a mistake. Lets see if everyone can walk away a winner including the Johans.
Bob, you are correct.

I have been quite open about what I do and I would appreciate you all allowing me to continue a reasonable communication without everyone now piling. Most said I was wasting my time so please lets give this a chance.
Flooding them with emails now diminishes my work, undercuts DD and adds more FUD. Lets let this unfold a bit. Now I need to work.
Well yes;
1. He responded
2. The lawyers are cc'd
3. He was courteous and asked specifics to determine if I was a legitimate and concerned shareholder.
Overall positive....remember he has taken a lot of abuse from us also and me included. So yes, positive.
Thank you but please bear with....not until I understand what he would want also. I received the courtesy of a very prompt reply and since Due Diligence is important I will ask him what he would like also. I think that would be fair. Then I will report everything I can. I hope you see that as reasonable and fair to both them and us. We all want a great outcome and I am doing my best to achieve that.
Now all I need is your all support.
Will do tonite....at work right now. Have to wait for response.
That would be the perfect storm wouldnt it?
Might have to wait till tonite cause I responded to them and maybe they will get back to me. Johan seemed quite cordial though.
Well.....lets see.
From the initial text he appeared to be interested in us as shareholders so I am cautiously very heartened. We may find out that they have our interests in mind also. Stay tuned.
UPDATE: I just heard from Johan directly and will post more when I have some lunch time.....I am stunned and it was a very polite and straightforward email.
Gee, nope. I expect that they are carefully studying my requests and discussing with the Johans the most expeditious way that they can continue to ignore the shareholders of the company. The requests so far have gone to 5 lawyers I believe. That gives us a fairly high probability that someone got the message.
Registered mail should take a while longer. I will wait at the mailbox every day for a response...LoL
That would be cool to watch.
