on rolling-up profitable regional theme parks in the U.S.,

InvestorFacts report on the Company. The report includes a profile

National Financial Communications, stated, "Within the park
industry, the highest margins and revenues stem from the sale of
concessions such as food, beverage and souvenirs. GFAM has
successfully built and owns Crossroad Convenience Center (CCC),
which operates as a retail and concession store and can function as
one within an amusement park. CCC has significantly increased the
Company's gross receipts each year, generating un-audited annual
revenues of $4.6 million and gross profit of $590,000 in 2004.
Eiten concluded, "GFAM's growth strategy is to acquire
family-centric amusement parks that bring immediate revenues and
profits to the Company, while offering significant expansion
opportunities for concessions and ticket sales. The Company is
nearing the close of its first major theme park acquisition, Wild
Animal Safari at Pine Mountain, Georgia. With revenues and EBITDA
of approximately $1.8 million and $900,000, respectively, Wild
Animal Safari brings strong fundamentals, an experienced management
team and a scalable operating platform to GFAM. GFAM plans to
acquire five parks over the next three years to consistently build
shareholder value." About OTC Financial Network Since 1992, OTC
