Re: Lead Generation/Corporate Relations Agreement
Dated July 20, 1995 (Corporate Relations Group, Inc.)
Dear Mr. Wensel:
Please be advised that I am corporate counsel for Corporate Relations Group,
Inc., of Winter Park, Florida, with who Garcis U.S.A. Inc. entered into a
Lead Generation/Corporate Relations Agreement on July 20, 1995.
Unfortunately, within one month of that date, CRG was contacted by an SEC
attorney, Kevin Edmondson, who demanded production of all material sent to
us by Garcis, as well as copies of a news release and a MoneyWorld article
which we had printed, previously approved by Garcis U.S.A. Inc.
While Mr. Edmondson would not give us the specifics of the SEC investigation,
he did imply that the materials released by Corporate Relations Group, Inc.
contained inaccuracies unacceptable to the SEC. I am certain that you can
understand that these allegations were equally disturbing to CRG since its
continued viability as a financial public relations concern depends on its
reputation for conducting accurate and ethical public relations campaigns.
Please note that paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 of the Lead Generation/Corporate
Relations agreement state that CRG must rely on and assume the accuracy of
the information (provided by the client). It is further stated that the
Client will agree not to omit any facts necessary, so that statements made
on behalf of the Client are not inaccurate or misleading, and state that the
client covenants and warrants that any information submitted for
dissemination would be truthful and in compliance with all copyright laws
as well as other applicable laws and regulations.

As the current SEC investigation of Garcis U.S.A. Inc. raises the appearance
of impropriety, please accept this letter as notice that CRG considers
Garcis to be in material breach of the agreement of July 20, 1995, and that
CRG will no longer honor its commitment to Garcis under said agreement.
Also, please be advised that CRG will timely return all shares of stock
and/or moneys provided to it by Garcis, with the exception of those moneys
earned by the efforts of CRG's creative personnel, as well as the cost of
publication and mailing of the Garcis message in the news release and the
October, 1995 issue of MoneyWorld. A detailed statement will be provided to
Garcis for all moneys retained by CRG.
Again, we are sorry that such an unfortunate incident mandates that the above
stated action be taken by CRG. Should you have any questions or comments
concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
(Signature)
