Press Release Body = Joseph P. Cool had the opportunity for a brief meeting with His
Royal Highness Prince Turki al-Faisal of Saudi Arabia during a recent visit to the
United States.

Cool teamed with the Multicultural Business Council (MBC) earlier this year to
provide MBC with overseas experience from the work he is done in 54 foreign
countries. As part of this experience, Cool was a member of the American Business
Council and Eastern Province in the 1990s.

After speaking for the American Arab Chamber of Commerce in Dearborn, Michigan,
Prince Turki al-Faisal was pleasantly surprised to see that Cool still had his
membership badge from the Council.

The goal of the visit to the United States was to build an understanding of the
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia among the American people.

"It was impressing to hear such a clear, concise message from the Prince," said Rick
Weaver, Chief Operations Officer of MBC.
