| "One of our member groups had their annual convention scheduled five days after the September 11 tragedy. Oliver North was the scheduled speaker, and I must tell you that his knowledge, experience and insight during this time was the highlight of the convention. Having served as director of the Anti-Terrorism unit of the National Security Council gives him an extraordinary perspective into these events -- and some clear understanding of where we may be headed. I would highly recommend his participation in any event during these uncertain times." |

| "Through the years, we have arranged to work with many national leaders to speak at our events, but Oliver North ranked #1 with our clients at our November event! Our audience of 600 of the largest real estate broker owners in the world found Colonel North to be extremely powerful and captivating. The response we have received was, without a doubt, the best ever -- and we've already booked him for a second event." |

| "I highly recommend Oliver North as a very interesting and informative speaker. He addressed our group shortly following the September 11th attacks and I was very impressed that he wove the day’s headlines into his speech and provided such trenchant insights. A number of people have told me that Oliver North is the best speaker we’ve ever booked for this event. But it’s not just his words that make Oliver North an ideal speaker. He mingled with the audience, signed autographs and posed for pictures. He did interviews with all the media. He was pleasant, friendly and down-to-earth, which was very much appreciated by everyone in attendance." |
