MEMO TO: Investorside Members DATE: May 27, 2009 SUBJECT: Newswire Service Now Available We are pleased to announce a new service that will be available to our members. We have contracted with Marketwire who maintains a database of more than 4000 international, national and regional press contacts to be our distribution vehicle for press releases. The database will allow us to use select filters to generate a targeted list of contacts and to distribute a press release simultaneously to the entire list. We believe that one of the biggest hurdles for many IRPs is brand recognition. Maintaining a current list of press contacts is often the most time consuming part of any public relations campaign. We are hopeful that you will take advantage of this service to help broaden awareness of the vast resources that are available to the investment community through IRPs. In addition, we have introduced a new section on our website for press releases affording other members and potential investors the opportunity to track recent developments within our membership. All press releases will be posted on the website going forward. We will host a conference call on Wednesday June, 3rd at 11am EST to introduce the service and explain the options that will be available to you. The dial in number is: Dial In: 1 877 903 2255, International Dial In: 303 928 2617 Passcode: Conference ID: 7285898#. We are very excited about this new service and believe it will invaluable in increasing the amount of news flow that we are able to generate.
