Mark Faulk conversation with Morris Richards, DTCC
Morris Richards: Hello
Mark Faulk: Is this Morris Richards?
Richards: Yes
Faulk: This is Mark Faulk, I am the CEO of CMKM Diamonds, CMKX. What I am
trying to do is just once and for all confirm a couple of conversations that several
of our shareholders have had with you. I have written statements of
conversations shareholders have had with and I just wanted to ask you if these
were accurate. Would you mind if I run these by you, I have a couple of people
who sent me information of conversations they have had with you and I wanted
to either confirm those or not.
Richards: I keep getting deeper and deeper into this thing and I really don't want
to get into this. I really don't want to be involved with this issue.
Faulk: I understand that. The only thing I would like for you to do if you would is
this: Someone named Christopher Leonard spoke to you last week on January
23, and he said that he asked you, and this is a very simple question, he asked
you "if you could confirm a conversation with Rod a few years back with regards
to CMKM". He said: "I then asked Mr. Richards if it is true that he told Rod
Gorman that money was collected on behalf of CMKM and it was supposed to be
distributed and he did not know why it had not been released. He said that "Mr.
Richards confirmed the conversation took place and said that it was true."
Richards: That is not true.
Faulk: That is not true? You did not have that conversation with Rod Gorman?
Richards: No, I did talk to the guy last week and he tried to get some information
out of me and I said there's nothing I can tell him.
Faulk: You did not confirm that you spoke to Rod Gorman and you did not
conform that you said that money was collected on behalf of CMKM shareholders
to Rod Gorman?
Richards: No. No.
Faulk: Have you confirmed that to anyone?
Richards: No, I have never told that to anybody.
Faulk: You have never told anyone that money was collected on behalf of....
Richards: No, no,
Faulk: Have you ever told anyone that money was supposed to be distributed to
shareholders?
Richards: Nope.
Faulk: Okay. Well, I have four different people who have made that statement
and swear that it a very true statement.
Richards: No.
Faulk: Is it true that a court order came down and that you're not allowed to
speak about this anymore?
Richards: I was told not to speak about it, there may not have been a court order
but I was told not to say anything about it, because at that time there was a
distribution that was done with CMKM Diamonds, there was a stock distribution
that we did, and after that I was out of the whole situation.
Richards: Are you speaking of the Entourage distribution or....
Richards: A stock distribution.
Faulk: A stock distribution. So you're not talking about a cash distribution.
Richards: No, no, no.
Faulk: Okay, well that answers one of my questions. Is there anybody there that I
can speak with to kind of follow up on this, because as I said, I'm CEO of the
company and we get a ton of rumors and occasionally they turn out to be true
and many times they turn out not to be true, and I have to just trace them back so
that they do not grow into.....
Richards: I understand. I never said anything to anybody.
Faulk: So the only thing that you spoke of had to do with....
Richards: ....was a distribution of the stock.
Faulk: A distribution of shares of stock and not a cash distribution.
Richards: Not a cash distribution. Right.
Faulk: Alright. Is there someone else there that I can speak to, like a superior or
someone who can....
Richards: No. They're not with....they're not there anymore.
Faulk: Okay. Can you tell who it was that was in charge at that time?
Richards: uh......now I forget.....uhhhhh......the only person who I worked with
back then was a lady at the transfer agent, and she worked with me. What was
her name? I forgot her name.
Faulk: Was that Helen Bagley?
Richards: Yes, Helen.
Faulk: So you were dealing with the transfer agent with a stock distribution....
Richards: Right, right.
Faulk: ....and not a cash distribution whatsoever?
Richards: no.
