    Re: Meeting With Department of Justice

    Barry Solodky,

    First, I would have responded earlier, however, your email found it's way into my junk email.

    Secondly, as an officer of the court, you better be careful about spreading lies about me and fabricationsabout events that did not happen. By the way, a copy of this will go directly to the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation Philadelphia Field Office and Detective Michael Landis of the Lancaster County District

    Attorney Office. Who do you think you are talking to?

    Thirdly, here is what transpired. The day before I received an ORDER from the Third Circuit Court ofAppeals, which was purposely postmarked 10 days after the Clerk filed and dated the Mail to copy to

    myself. The ORDER was for a no response to a Show Cause ORDER, which someone had stole for my

    mail, which I never received. The Third Circuit case was an appeal from my Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

    Now, on Wednesday morning I made plans to go to the Hotel Brunswick and take some measurements in

    the Movie Theater which I am in the middle of a development plan As usual I walked into the lobby on

    There was no incident to speak of. Any incident was a lie, regardless of the person that kept interferingwith our conversation that was trying to cause problems. It was not me, you fool.

    I would suggest that you provide this email to the person that told you that fabricated lie and anyone elsethat you communicate with regarding your so called version of an "incident". Follow this link and you may

    read why people like you lie about these incidents.

    Now, you have a nice Easter Weekend. And by the way, I am a supporter of Senator Clinton and I dovolunteer my services, just in case you were wondering.

    >> Hi Stan,

    >> Hope this note finds you well.>> Yesterday afternoon I had to attend some bankruptcy meetings on behalf of some clients. While there

    the Trustee told me about an event which concerned her. She showed me your card and told me what

    happened. In fact she said she almost considered calling the police because of the incident.>> I assured her you were not the type of person that would do anything inappropriate. I did want you to

    know she is not an employee of the Dept. of Justice or the Bankruptcy Court; she is a private panel

    trustee just as I was for 33 years. If for some reason you have issues with the bankruptcy system she isnot a person who should be hassled as she has nothing to do with your case.>

    > I'm sending this only because I don't want there to be any further incidents which might cause her

    concern or the Federal marshals will get involved and I know they can be nasty. Needless to say I don'twant to see anything to you which would cause you any problems.

    >> I am sure I will bump into you soon. Have a nice Easter.

    Advanced Media Group's (8) Year Investment into Downtown Lancaster,The Lancaster Convention Center& Our UPS STORE Concept.

    ADVACED MEDIA GROUPS (8) YEAR IVESTMET I DOWTOW LACASTER

    This weekend at the Party that Mayor Rick Grayhosted on Friday night in the Dome,we were discussingthe needs for retail establishments in Downtown Lancaster. He had told me that the James Street

    Improvement Districthad done a retail assessment of the current retail space and a needs analysis ofneeded retail spaces that would compliment the already existing retail space. I have been investing time

    and energies to the revitalization ofDowntown Lancaster for the past 8 years.

    I informed Rick that I have an exclusive agreement for a UPS Shipping/Copy Store in

    Downtown Lancaster, and he thought it was a great fit and a great idea for DowntownLancaster. Advanced Media Group would also add services such as scanning, imaging, and

    records management servicesthat would attract an additional market to the concept.

    I am an ardent advocate for theDowntown Lancaster Convention Centerand in April of 2005 we sued theLancaster County Hoteliers for refusing to pay the Tourism Excise Tax. We are still continuing our effortsfor the Excelsior Place Development on East King Street.

    We currently have a signed Non Disclosure Agreement with Realtor Jeff Lefevre and Caldwell Bankerfor

    the Excelsior Place Property.

    I also had authored the Development Plan for the S.N. Lombardo Developmenton 626 West Charllottef

    Advanced Media Groups Downtown Lancaster Revitalization

    Action Plan

    Advanced Media Group has been working with Downtown Lancaster developers and the James Street

    Investment District to facilitate this action plan.

    Project 1 Excelsior Place on East King Street

    In 1998 Advanced Media Group had developed a comprehensive plan for the revitalization of the ExcelsiorPlace Historic Property (Sprecher Brewery) located 1 block from the proposed Downtown Lancaster

    Convention Center. We had planned a unique entertainment complex comprised of a Pub, an upscale

    restaurant in the lower catacomb, and a nightclub in the first floor. We had also developed and designed astate-of-the-art video conferencing facility to compliment the Convention Center. We have joined in the

    talks and discussions with principals, stakeholders, and taxing authorities concerning the present proposalsand the future of the revitalization of Downtown Lancaster and the Convention Center.

    Get ready for a sea change,'' says Rick Gray. Lancaster's enthusiastic mayor is talking about how thedowntown will look next spring, when the first visitors arrive at the Lancaster County Convention Center

    and Marriott Hotel on Penn Square.

    If all goes as planned, the difference will be dramatic. Sidewalks, lighting, benches and trash receptacleswill be standardized by then to unify the downtown streetscape. And new street trees will be planted.

    when this fine establishment last went from the Hotel Brunswick to the Ramada Brunswick. I do not recall

    the year but I certainly recall the content. The owner at the time was going to spend $XX million dollars

    then to bring it up to par and turn it around. LNP printed everything that the owner wanted them to printwhether it made any logical sense or not. What happened, more bankruptcy, more managementcompanies, and more trouble? When the mortgage holder finally got tired of the never ending cycle, they

    cut their losses, ate half the debt, and go that asset off of their books to the current owner. Not only didthis story run then but I am sure that it ran in simlar fashion previous to that. What do we have now,more of the sameoutrageous claims by owners trying to make themselves look good and a newspaper

    monopoly that does not even ask questions. Let me suggest a couple. How many dollars per room is

    allegedly being spent? How many dollars per room is the national average for new construction of a hotelsuch as the Brunswick? What is the difference? How or why could someone substantiate the current claimsfor what is merely cosmetic work, no bricks or mortar? I guess it is probably too much to ask though since

    LNP was not willing to ask the same questions about the CC & hotel, why would they ask or do any

    research for this one?

    the Middle East edition but the Arabic content is replaced with Farsi content and an additional

    section provides news and information on technologies and productions specifically relevant toIran. Local content is managed by Pejman Ghorbani, a young Iranian filmmaker based in Tehran.The magazine is distributed through the Nashravaran Journalistic Institute in Tehran and is

    available on subscription - as well as through newsstands and specialist retail outlets in Iran.

    The indigenous film industry in the Islamic Republic of Iran is booming and home-grownprogramming dominates local cinema and television, explains publisher Kevan Jones. Over thelast few years weve seen a growing interest in our magazine from readers within the Islamic

    Republic of Iran and our new regional version reflects the importance of this market within the

    Middle East region.

    Much of the editorial content in this new version has been commissioned from local journalistsand is specifically relevant to the region. For many years Iran has been isolated by language,

    culture and political intrigue, says Nima Abu-Wardeh, a well-known media professional in the

    Middle East and presenter of the BBCs weekly Middle East Business Report. Despite this, theIranian economy is buoyant and the country is playing an increasingly important role in thecommercial activity of the Middle East. Equally important, Iran has a well-established culture of

    cinema and film production thats hungry for information on the latest video technologies. AV

    The first issue features several international manufacturers of film and TV production technology

    INTRODU TION

    Tony Bongiovi and Power Station Studio are undertaking a project

    that has the potential of revolutionizing he entertainment industry.

    In the next few pages of this proposal, I will outline the elements

    involved and how Sony can participate in this landmark event.

    The technology of the recording industry has been advancing by

    leaps and bounds.

    We have seen the advances from monaural

    long playing record to stereo record to compact disc. Now we are

    seeing tape systems that use digital rather than analog signals

    appear, matching the quality of compact discs. What has

    happened to the theatre's? The audio portion of a film, is as

    responsible for the sensations one experiences at a motion picture

    as the visual, yet many theatre's are still equipped only for mono

    sound. Why is this? We feel there are two basic reasons.

    >

    The relative high cost of upgrading a theatre to be able to

    incorporate the advanced technologies of the audio

    industry.

    >

    The lack of proper equipment for the film industry to

    produce high quality digital audio tracks.

    These two problems should not be addressed separately. There

    the heavy music score by Bongiovi's latest band French Lick .

    Producing bands is definitely one of Bongiovi's fortes. Bong iovi

    was instrumental in creating Bon Jovi who is probably the

    strongest force in the rock and roll circuit today. Bon Jovi's third

    album Slippery When Wet , has sold more copies in a short

    period of time than any other band in history.

    Another is the fact that this is a horror film. The use of audio in

    horror films is important to create tension, fear, excitem ent etc..

    Using a horror film also lessens the influence the critics have on

    the audience.

    By the large this film will stand on it's ow n merits. Now add

    PSDMS, and you have a potential block buster event.

    How does Sony fit into all of this?

    SONY S ROLE

    What we are seeking to do, is establish a distribution route in

    which the m essage of Sony's new technology and its benefits can

    be more easily and directly passed on to the consumer.

    Advanced Media Group Page 74 of 142 Thursday, November 5, 2015

  • 7/24/2019 Advanced Media Group v Lancaster Film Commission June 9, 2008

    Sony's name will also be strategically placed throughout the film.

    This may be done in the form of billboards, advertisements, or

    Sony equipment being utilized.

    A commercial may be developed for

    n

    promoting both the film

    and Sony's contributions to advanced audio techniques in the film

    industry. This could be done as a joint venture between Sony and

    the distribution company for the theatrical and video exhibition.

    Inside every video tape that is sold, a coupon may be placed to

    promote Sony products.

    A full line of quality equipment may be SONY/POWER STATION

    labeled for consumer use to enhance marketability of Sony

    entertainment products.

    Sony Video Software Corporation will receive right of first refusal

    on all contracts for video and theatrical distribution. We will allow

    Sony a preferred

    5

    margin under any other distributor for a

    competitive edge.

    TIMING

    Timing is crucial in a project that touch so many different

    Advanced Media Group Page 75 of 142 Thursday, November 5, 2015

  • 7/24/2019 Advanced Media Group v Lancaster Film Commission June 9, 2008

    75/142

    to the public that Sony truly is a pioneer of advanced audio visual

    technologies.

    Sony will receive exposure in the professional market place by

    having the SONY/POWER STATION equipment used in theatres

    and studios to produce the SONY/PSDMS sound.

    The video industry is a 56 billion dollar industry that is in need of

    product. When you look at the potential for a product that will be

    one of the first feature films to compliment the fast paced

    VCR/Stereo Entertainment components, with a musical score that

    may have enough merits of its own, you have an amazing potential

    for distribution.

    The Digital and Disc Industry has proven to be the future standard

    for recording and playing. Because of the relative newness of the

    digital format, there are more people who have yet to experience

    the digital sound. With the high exposure that will come from this

    project, this could be the first time ever people hear digital. How

    many people? 10 50 100 million?

    What will be their first reaction?

    I

    Who's name will they think of first?

    which Sony is one.

    Because we already have a working model of

    this console, it would take very little time for a finished product to

    be manufactured that could carry the SONY name.

    The other piece of equipment that is essential to the PSDMS

    process, is the box that enables the laser disc to automatically

    read the synchronization track encoded on the film. This piece of

    equipment can be produced at an extremely low cost. It is this

    low cost and the fact that the theatres will not have to replace their

    present projectors that make digital movie sound a reality in 1988.

    We feel that with consumers demanding the same quality audio at

    theatres, as they have become accustomed to with their home

    entertainment systems, theatre owners will have little problem

    investing the nominal amount of dollars involved, to upgrade their

    theatres for digital audio. This investment could be as low as

    1000.

    With the cost being so low, the distribution company may

    want to consider bearing the burden of this cost, if the theatre

    owners agree to show Bongiovi s next three films.

    FINANCIAL STRUCTURE

    SONY will commit four million dollars for the production of

    Bongiovi s film to be released in

    1988.

    Power Station and Power Productions

    I

    will receive a negotiated

    percentage from all revenues generated from the merchandizing

    campaign of the SONY/POWER STATION products and the sale

    that may result to other film studios utilizing Sony/POWER

    STATION equipment in the PSDMS System.

    We will receive four deluxe entertainment systems Television

    VCR Stereo Etc. that is top of the line to help during the

    production of the film.

    The purpose of the above and all aspects of this Proposal is to let

    the separate entities involved maximize their profits for their

    respective talents; Bongiovi in film and music production and Sony

    in manufacturing and distribution of equipment and merchandise

    and la
