Just too frickin funny CEO's Pledge, `A Possible Start On The Road Back To Trust,' Published In Today's Issue of The Stock Trader News; Hamburg Alternative for OTCBB Firms Discussed HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 26, 2002--The Stock Trader News, an independent, subscription-based, online stock journal at www.stocktradernews.com, published a new "CEO's Pledge" in today's edition, and also discussed the Hamburg alternative for OTCBB stocks facing abandonment if the Nasdaq BBX comes to pass. The CEO's Pledge read: "As the individual entrusted with the responsibility for the welfare of my organization, its shareholders, its employees, the customers it serves, and the community it abides in, I eagerly pledge my best efforts: "To be honest, open, and accountable in all I do, and to hold my company in all its endeavors to the same high standards, in the belief that operating with honor and integrity is the path to the greatest profits and the fastest growth in the end. "To build and maintain an enterprise that a shareholder will be proud to own a part of, that an employee will be proud to work for, that a customer will be glad to do business with, that a community will be happy to shelter. "To understand always that, while earning money on our financial investment is our basic purpose, that is not enough; I must see that my organization also earns a reasonable return on the investment of the time and trust that others have made in this enterprise." In the "Jack's Journal" column of the publication, the CEO's Pledge was cited as the possible start down a road back to trust and integrity in the investment environment. Wrote columnist Jack Burney: "This is a rare opportunity to... dedicate ourselves to creating an investment community constructed solidly -- not on scam and deceit, not on cheating and stealing -- but on honor, integrity and trust." In another story, STN writes that the proposed BBX (Bulletin Board Exchange) wants to snatch the best of the OTCBB companies and abandon the rest to the Pink Sheets, but the Hamburg Exchange has a possible answer: its High Market. The hot idea: American companies can have an alternate or dual listing on the exchange. Better yet, German law protects listed companies against short-selling.
