In addition, to the revenue realized from these CHL hockey teams, each of the events centers utilizes Encore for their facility management, Gettix for ticketing services and GEMS, our licensing and advertising division, for sales and marketing services. Much of this revenue should be on-going as we have multi-year agreements in place for our various services.

The net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 was primarily attributable to legal fees associated with the settlement of a legal claim. Excluding the legal costs associated with this claim, the net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 would have been $33,169. In addition, the results for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 included continued investment in the launch of the Cragar Edition vehicle kits, and startup and operation expense associated with our newest subsidiary, Global Properties I.

Through our ICC division we are currently performing project management services for an events and entertainment center in Wenatchee, Washington Wenatchee (IPA: [wɪ ˈnæt tʃi]) is located at the confluence of the Wenatchee and Columbia rivers near the eastern foothills of the Cascade Mountain range in the U.S. State of Washington. . Upon completion of this facility, we have already been engaged in multi-year agreements for Encore to provide facility management services and for GEMS to provide sales and marketing services.

Richard Kozuback, president and chief executive officer, stated, "The substantial revenue increase posted in the third fiscal quarter flowed from all of our multiple subsidiary companies with the impact of the volume increase in our ticketing services business being most beneficial because of the relatively higher margins provided by that subsidiary. The additional revenue stream realized from the multiple services we provide at the two new events centers completed late in our second fiscal quarter represents the initial revenue flow we anticipate from these facilities and demonstrates how our multi-layered business structure performs. Our newest subsidiary, Global Properties I, continues to have ongoing discussions with a number of municipalities throughout the country regarding potential market opportunities for our turn-key events center concept."

Kozuback added, "I am honored to report that the Santa Ana Santa Ana, city, El Salvador
