Ms. Shell, AZNT has proven with action that it does not tolerate the malicious and illegal acts that have sought to diminish shareholder value and the company's reputation in it's specific market niche. I make an observation on this issue, not a decree. Weren't you going to post the judgement you stated that Wellrich won "in court" on "thursday"? You told me it was being "procured", I believe you told me you would have it posted by Friday evening. Mr. Mitchell informed us the "hearing" was Friday and that Wellrich won a judgement. You and Mr. Mitchell seem to have differing accounts of the day, I wonder why? Since the SEC, nor the NASD, nor AZNT was the source for your diligence, I would assume Wellrich was. Have you seen this?; September 2, 1998 Securities and Exchange Commission Washington, D.C. 20549 RE: United States Of America vs. WellRich & Company Attention: xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx Division of Enforcement RE: WellRich & Company Dear xxxxxxxx: As always it was indeed a great pleasure speaking with you today.

WellRich is not a licensed broker/dealer, but may be functioning as such in violation of Section 15(a)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). See Polannin, John, Jr., "Finder's Exception From Federal Broker-Dealer Registration," CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW, Vol. 40, summer 1991, Number 4. 4. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 5. WellRich has not or does not have the ability to indemnify any company, In the event that the company is sued as a result of Wellrichs's actions. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx WellRich does not have adequate financial resources to compensate any company in the event of a judgment. 6. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 7. WellRich receives compensation predicated upon a percentage of the sales price of the stock that they SOLICIT to people over the phone.xx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. This establishes that WellRich is functioning as a broker/dealer. See SIDNEY MARKS, SEC No-Action Letter, 1977 No-Act LEXIS 2057 (July 7, 1977); JOHN DIMENO, SEC No-Action Letter, 1978 No-Action. LEXIS 2188 (Oct. 11, 1978); and RICHARD S. APPEL, SEC No-Action Letter, 1983 No-Act. LEXIS 2035 (Jan. 13, 1983). 8. All of the issues raised by this letter is enough to indite and convict WellRich of all charges. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
