=====================

Strategic Business Partners And Ron Bridges business consulting, International Profit Associates Arlington Heights Illinois

I was hired by Mr. Ron Bridges and confirm my employment with the principals of SBP. After 60 days of working I questioned there tactics, the way they were not paying me and the deliverable. Once I questioned there business practices I was fired. Not only was I fired but they refused to pay me the monies I was owed. I found out that Mr. Ron Bridges has a multi million dollar law suit against him for ripping off his partners and still owes $450K.

These people come from International Profit Associates and George S May. Be careful who you do business with.

Strategic Business Partners LLC and Ron Bridges Defend Themselves!

By authorization of its Board of Directors, Strategic Business Partners LLC is exercising its right to respond to this allegation which we recognize as being completely without merit. These statements by Mr. Souran are scurrilous, baseless, unfounded and constitute a blatant impugning of Strategic Business Partner's recognized position in the marketplace. Our reputation and professionalism are beyond reproach. Our firm is an ethical and accomplished consulting firm. The officers referred to have been outrageously besmirched with these accusations. Neither Mr. Bridges, Mr. Hostetler or Mr. Orabutt have ever been associated, affiliated or employed by International Profit Associates. Specifically, Mr. Bridges has never faced any litigation or judgments by or from former business partners.

For the record, Mr. Tom Souran was never an employee of Strategic Business Partners LLC. He was, for a period of approximately 30 days, an employee of a Strategic Business Partners LLC subsidiary organization. Mr. Souran was involuntarily terminated from his position by Mr. Bridges, who was at that time the Managing Partner of said subsidiary. A routine background check, standard to employment at Mr. Souran's level of responsibility, identified:

1. 1988 conviction for embezzlement and fraudulent communications and theft of customer property for Thomas C. Souran (case #NFA 88BCC400008 and NFA ID:0000184) by the National Futures Association (a regulatory group that governs futures trading) and they expelled him and barred him and fined him $25,000. Mr. Souran appealed the decision of the regulatory body on on Dec 1988 and on March 19, 1991 the NFA Committee upheld its original decision and penalties.

2. In June of 2000, Techumseh Holdings Corporation, whose Chairman was Thomas C. Souran, was charged with the embezzlement and theft of more than $10,000,000 of client invested funds by the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. As a consequence of this action, in July of 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission asked for penalties, sanctions and a demand for the return of the ill gotten gains from the corporation and its officers and principals.
