SPZI, a simple miscommunication...........

Ok, so we all have heard the hub-hub over an email that was coined as "nefarious" and possibly meant to tarnish spzi and even blamed for the decline earlier in the pps.

Let all of you spzi shareholders just take a deep breath and let's understand what happened from a different perspective from this recap you can see the innocence.

This is what I have been told by another person that I believe. I will not divulge "who" told me this and I still do not know the exact people that were involved nor do i WANT to.

There is a SPZI shareholder that has some connections/friends in the Chicago area. This shareholder is always continuing to do DD on his/her investment.... Let's call this investor/shareholder - INVESTOR A

Now there's another shareholder, from a different location, that is also always continuing to do DD investment.... Let's call this investor/shareholder - INVESTOR B

Finally, for this situation, we have another shareholder from a different location again, that is as well continually trying to keep up to date on DD for their investment.... Let's call this investor/shareholder - INVESTOR X

INVESTORS A & B develop a friendship and rely on each other for truthful information and balancing of DD findings regarding a common investment that they share in SPZI. They discuss good and bad concerns as well as fruitful information that they deem necessary to evaluate their investment choices. They are truthful and friendly as they both share a common investment.

Investor B ALSO has developed friendships with others through IHUB as well as exchanges occasional emails and PM's. All in the quest of DD on an investment of course.

Now on to the story.........

INVESTOR A has friends and associates in the financial area in Chicago. INVESTOR A is told by a friend in Chicago that he/she has been informed that Dr. Peng He and Jame Groves have left SPZI (information give AFTER the close on 10/30/07). After receiving this information, INVESTOR A sits and ponders about this. INVESTOR A, being truthful and friendly, sends an email to his/her friend INVESTOR B, basically reporting the information they had obtained and INNOCENTLY questions or poses situations to INVESTOR B about "possible" reasons that he/she could come up with. Now INVESTOR A was not stating this as fact, but meerly giving INVESTOR B some thoughts that he/she thinks could be reasoning. Of course, INVESTOR A was really trying to see what INVESTOR B'S opinions were on the matter, more than likely hoping INVESTOR B might be able to calm the tides and/or try to get clarification from other sources that he/she was friends with.

INVESTOR B gets the email, and is probably very nervous and and ponders the email. INVESTOR B then copies the email and sends it to INVESTOR X, without clarifying the situation to INVESTOR X of WHAT the INTENT was from INVESTOR A, who truly just wanted to discuss the prospects of what that information could mean and had no nefarious reasons by sending INVESTOR B that information, which was FOR YOUR EYES ONLY.

Now INVESTOR B was not being a tattle tail or snitch, INVESTOR B trusts INVESTOR X and just wants to pass it along to them also in hopes of some reasons or possible repercussions if this information is TRUE. INVESTOR B wants to see what INVESTOR X would say, so that in return B can give A a thought out response with consideration of X's thoughts.

Well, INVESTOR X sends this out to other friends of theirs on IHUB, and now the chain has been extended too far. One of the friends receives this email NOT UNDERSTANDING the INTENT OR ORIGIN and immediately ASSUMES that this is an orchstrated malicious attempt to sour or harm his/her investment and the email is then posted in PUBLIC on IHUB. The masses cry foul and insinuate criminal intents and a wave of anger insues.

All the while, INVESTOR A was and IS a current shareholder/investor of SPZI and a supporter of the company. INVESTOR A was only relaying information to a friend (INVESTOR B) that he/she had heard, which we now know to have been TRUE, as well the obvious increase in the O/S which was stipulated.

This appears to have been a huge misunderstanding, albeit some of the information WAS TRUE and there was no agenda involved. All participants were and are loyal shareholders, but the chain extended too far.

There was no raid of shorting due to this email, there was no hidden agenda to spread FUD, this was a simple exchange of TRUTHFUL information that ended up in someone's hand OUT OF CONTEXT.

Good luck to SPZI investors, let's put this issue to rest as it is not helpful, nor was it received as it was INTENDED.


The world is getting to be such a dangerous place, a man is lucky to get out of it alive.
