]"We dispute the Suspended Rating given by Investrend analyst Shailesh Dhuri because no member of our management team had any form of direct communication with Mr. Dhuri prior to the release of this Notice. The CFA (Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986) Signed into law in 1986, the CFA was a significant step forward in criminalizing unauthorized access to computer systems and networks. The Act applies to "federal interest computers" that include any system used by the U.S.  Institute's Standards of Practice clearly state: (all Analysts are to) exercise diligence, independence, and thoroughness in analyzing investments, making investment recommendations, and taking investment actions; and have a reasonable and adequate basis, supported by appropriate research and investigation, for any investment analysis, recommendation, or action. E[acute accent]"Mr. Dhuri stated that 'current guidance from management is negative...' As he has had no contact with our company for the past four months, it is impossible for Mr. Dhuri or Investrend to provide any indication as to what management's `current' guidance on any matter is, or to assert that the change in rating was the result of reasonable, adequate or appropriate research or investigation. E[acute accent]"Secondly, Investrend further states that its rating has been suspended due to its inability or unwillingness to provide the analyst assigned by Investrend with continued access to the company, a violation of the 'CFAI / NIRI NIRI National Investor Relations Institute

E[acute accent]"At no time was CorpHQ unable or unwilling to provide Mr. Dhuri with continued access to the company. To the contrary, CorpHQ posted its Voluntary Financial Report for the 2nd Quarter of 2006 on August 15, 2006 and has been waiting to begin discussions with Mr. Dhuri since that time. Instead, without any prior notice or justification, and with no attempt at contacting anyone in management at the company, coverage of CorpHQ was unilaterally suspended by Investrend. E[acute accent]"While our asset base and shareholders equity grew in the second quarter other key areas of our business did suffer. Had Mr. Dhuri taken the time to properly evaluate our company's financial and operating position he may or may not have come to a different conclusion. The conclusion I come to is that any rating Mr. Dhuri now gives the company lacks credibility, and should be discounted in light of his arbitrary and capricious capricious adv., adj. unpredictable and subject to whim, often used to refer to judges and judicial decisions which do not follow the law, logic or proper trial procedure.
