JUNE 28th Questions Would you please explain your comment that "we are positioning ourselves to expand the range, content and quality of our offerings in line with future increases in the availability of high-speed Internet access." Specifically what does range, content and quality refer to? Would you also explain "Ampex's strategy is to use its technological expertise to increase the content and quality of Internet video." What can and will Ampex do with internet video that others can not or have not done? Why the sudden change with regards to taking a majority stake in Reiters? Are there plans to have AENTV and TVontheWeb work together or will they evolve separately? What is the status of the New York personnel and facility? How is the "Branding of Ampex" progressing? How many subsidiaries does Ampex envision having? What is the time table for developing the overseas facilities? Chris

Ed- Here's my question regarding flexible keepered media: U.S. Patent Number 843565, entitled, "Particulate magnetic medium utilizing keeper technology and methods of manufacture" clearly states that "the flexible, particulate magnetic media may be used in tape or flexible disc formats." Recent advances to quadruple the density of DST devices were apparently realized by changes in the read/write head design. What further magnitude of density gains could be expected if keepered flexible media were used on a DST device? If practical, could this technology be licensed to other digital tape storage device manufacturers? Perhaps this question wouldn't fit in their agenda for the interactive session:"Bramson will use the unique, interactive session to set out Ampex's Internet video initiatives, discuss additional opportunities to add content and distribution capabilities in the U.S. and overseas and address questions from shareholders on Ampex's strategy and the Internet video marketplace."

More questions to add to your list. What is the synergy between the new internet divisions and Ampex Data and Micronet? What are your plans for DST beyond broadcasting? Are internet and enterprise storage solutions in the picture? Will you marry up Micronet and Ampex Data to give a complete storage system for the internet and enterprise storage. If so what are your marketing plans? When will the new channels on TVW be rolled out? How many internet sites are you planning and what is the timeframe?
