Greetings Group Members and CMKX Shareholders,



As a first report of sorts I am glad to state that our fax in cert campaign is proceeding as planned. We learned in the broker statement fax in campaign that we can expect a week or two of refining the programs and procedures before we have a smooth process in place. Your input on making this process a smooth procedure is important so feel free to contribute your thoughts. Our computer tech people (Johnny Martin primarily) have spent long hours and we continue to tweak the processes for handling this influx of information. We received 1100 faxes or so in the first couple of days. We have no input totals at this point because of some refining we are doing to the data base which is reporting the results of these faxed certs. We are also training input personnel and devising a system of checks and balances to assure our shareholders list and the number of shares is accurate.



I am overjoyed at the work many brokerage houses are doing to assist the shareholders in obtaining their certs. I have confirmed that certificate mail outs to CMKX shareholders are being conducted by E-Trade, Charles Schwab and Southwest Securities with some at greatly reduced fees. These companies and others that follow suit are to be commended for their efforts. You are entitled to your certificates even though you have allowed your brokers to put your stock in the name of Cede and Company. I will try to update you as to which companies have agreed to assist their customers. If your broker does not, ask him why his brokerage firm does not yet the other companies are providing such a service. Your efforts are helpful to all CMKX shareholders.



I have been told of a terrible amount of misinformation that is being spread among the shareholders. I read today a comment in a written Schwab response to a shareholder that the Task Force may charge a fee for the Entourage distribution. I have participated in every meeting of the Task Force and have ongoing dialogue with Don Stoecklein’s office and there has never been one word said about a fee being charged to the shareholders by the Task Force. As I told you in my update on November 9, 2005, the company has agreed to pay all necessary expenses of the Task Force for its work in contacting all known shareholders of CMKX stock. You will not be asked to pay any sum of money to the company or the Task Force to obtain your shares of Entourage stock. I wish there was a method of conclusively proving who is responsible for such rumors. They should be held accountable.



I want to thank the shareholder that called our office yesterday and told us that his broker had told us he would be sending out his certs but the fee was $75.00. He explained that various parties took $50.00 of the fee and the Frizzell Law Firm was charging $25.00. This is another bit of sad misinformation. I have asked for the name of the company and the broker or its representative that was spreading such a lie. I will respond. I can assure you that this office will not receive any funds from a brokerage fee charged to the shareholders. I know that by and large our CMKX shareholders are a fairly intelligent lot. I ask you to think about the absurdity of such suggestion. John asked me to deny this suggestion in writing so you can respond to any companies that suggest the same. If you are told part of the broker’s requested cert fees are coming to this office, then tell them to knock that off the fees and you will pay the rest. They are welcome to call my office if there are any concerns in this area.



Kevin tells me he heard that one broker was declaring that cash dividends will be paid to those that keep electronic shares in their accounts. It sounds to me like someone does not want you pulling certs for your Entourage stock. I know of no company that would ever dividend something to street name shareholders and ignore cert holders. How irresponsible would that be? Bob Maheu was serious when he stated in his first press release that he would use State and Federal court action to see that all shareholders are properly notified and paid their Entourage stock if it became necessary. You can safely disregard this rumor.



We are experiencing some input problems as we tally the certs we are receiving. Here are some hints to those of you who have yet to send your certs.

1) Please use a dark and preferable bold ink when filling out the form which accompanies your cert.

2) Please print and do so legibly. We are having difficulty reading some of your information.

3) If possible fax at late hours or on weekends

4) If you have no way to fax in your certificates, then you may send COPIES of your certificates by mail. We suggest you send it registered. Please follow the same procedure as faxing your information. Fill out a separate coversheet for each named person or business, group the certs together with each coversheet (use paper clips and no staples Please) The address will be as follows:

I ask my staff every day or two about any problems they are hearing from the board posters. I am surprised when I am told there exists a group of people devoting considerable time and effort to preventing an accurate shareholder and share count. The stock is not trading at the moment so it would not make sense for someone to suggest you should not have your holdings in cert form. The only logical conclusion one could draw from the efforts of these people is that someone does not want the company to know who its shareholders are and how many shares they hold.



Be vigilant in your efforts. Encourage all shareholders and ask them to encourage others to participate. We need 100% participation.




Onward,



Bill
