Press Release Summary: “Brentwood Group” – As stock markets plummet, many blue-chip
stocks are now cheap.

Press Release Body: Asian-based asset management firm, Brentwood Group is rumored to
be acquiring blue chip stock as large investors sell them to raise capital to meet
margin calls.

Sources close to Brentwood Group said that the overwhelming majority of shares being
dumped on the market are not related to the financial sector but hedge and pension
funds need to raise cash to cover the unwinding of trades with Lehman Brothers.

Oil, technology and utilities companies have been the subject of sustained selling
since news of Lehman Brothers Chapter 11 bankruptcy filings.

Brentwood Group are thought to be expecting further turbulence if the US insurance
giant, AIG, is the next casualty of the year-long credit crisis.
