STRATTON OaKmonrt, INc. FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY CARL MAY’ STRATEGY FOR WINNING STRATTON OakMonrt, INC. FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY SELF IMPROVEMENT Samuel A. Cypert Napoleon Hill’s Great Principles of Personal Achievement first heard about Napolean Hills principles of personal achievement when I was work ‘ngmy way through college sling ie insurance °° 7> FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY --= OTHER TIPS Stick to the program Listen to what the man says Be a good listener Be confident Find a role model or mentor Be consistent - Not fair weather DONT'S 1. Pick up bad habits. You first make your habits, then your habits make you. This is the most important philosophy for you to understand. You don't suddenly have a bad habit; for ex ample, you don't become an alcoholic or a drug addict. You make one mistake, then another and another and this creates a habit. Once it is almost impossible to break. Think about it, we are all creatures of habit. We wake up at the same time, we eat the same things, we go to the same hangouts and say the same things over and over. Don't let destructive behavior become a habit. 2. Never ever be discourteous to a prospect or their secretary. How foolish could one be? You told them your name and the firm which you represent - This will certainly come back to haunt you, the broker and the firm you work for. hve yourself the heartache end embarrassment by Keeping your composure. Be polite, apologetic, respectful and professional. 3. Don't waste time, there are only so many hours in a day, and so many minutes in an hour. Every minute counts - every single minute. You spend most of your day trying to make con tact, You've got to get the dials in. 4, Never comment on or after each phone call or lead. Everyone has a story to tell, either this or that, nobody wants to hear it! Nobody! Just get your leads and do your job, that's it. Who cares. how your conversation with Mr. Jones was? Good or bad, who cares? 5. Don't ever waste your time talking and screwing around with other brokers or trainees. At the end of each day you are judged on your performance, and so is the fool next to you who lets you distract him. You are all on a mission, to be a great cold caller, pass your test and be a successful stockbroker. Any other activity beyond your mission is a waste of time ( see #3 on Wasting Time or #1 on Bad Habits for a more detailed explanation). 6. Don't make non-productive phone calls either to friends outside or brokers inside the firm. The phones in the boardroom are for business - period. 7. Never drift into space while cold calling. Stay focused and pumped. Keep your blood puming by standing and moving around. Why: (a) If he's up + you're down = no conversation (b) If e's down + you're down = no conversation (©) Ifhe's down + you're up = no conversation FOR TRAINING PI (@) If he's up + you're up = conversation is up URPOSES ONLY WHAT IS A QUALIFIED INVESTOR? 1. Any corporation or individual investor with $100 K annual income and book net worth or more in the stock market. 2. Any investor with $100 K or more in the stock market who is somewhat receptive. Isay somewhat because they don't have to be overjoyed that they heard from you. FOR A BETTER QUALIFIED LEAD, THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION WOULD BENEFIT BOTH THE BROKER AND THE PROSPECT: 1. Big Board, OTC or International Investments 2. Aggressive or conservative 3, More long term or short term 4, Ballpark number /amount in the market 5. Comfort level on an idea 6, Area of interest (eg: drugs, auto, retail, biotech, etc....) 7. Most recent investment Do's 1. Be an example of what a broker trainee should be. 2. Separate yourself from the crowd. Eagles don't flock, you find them one at a time. 3, Always be polite and professional. Each contact you make is a representation of the firm image. 4, Try to keep motivated and energetic throughout the day. This will build endurance and most important foundation for your success. This business is not a sprint but a marathon, don't ever forget that. 5. Make the most of your day, keep focused and keep your eyes on your goals...daily, weekly, monthly etc. 6. Play by the numbers, it is proven, stick to it. Speak to 50 people a day or 5/6 an hour. This is a profession, the more people you contact, the better you will actually do! 7. Thank every prospect (good, bad or indifferent) for their time. It helps keep you out of trouble and people will understand you're only doing your job, trying to make a living. 8. Never ever think or believe that you are just a cold caller, no matter what I say or anyone else. You are an apprentice of a stockbroker who is learning a career. Simply put, a broker trainee. 9. Be prepared to live for your first two years like no one else. Working harder than you ever thought possible and for the rest of your life you will live like no one can.

FOR TRAINING PURI POSES ONLY WHAT TO DO WHEN: PROSPECT YOU'RE CALLING IS HOSTILE: First: Apologize for the inconvenience, with the promise to take them off your list. Politely hang up. Second: Save the card with a Big H across and each month I will collect them to delete from our file. DISCONNECTS: Do the same as above. Save the card for deletion from our list with a D written across it. WHEN A PROSPECT SAYS HE IS HAPPY WITH HIS BROKER: If he implies that he's is in the market and he hangs up -- SAVE THE LEAD!

(close with a question) FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY CORRECT QUALIFICATIONS STRATTON Oakmont, INc. FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY Guns swtflinm, THB ROAD TO RICHES STARTS WITH THE CORRECT QUALIFICATION one of the biggest mistakes the novice broker will make is a "weak" qualification, "Weak" qualifications represent major road blocks on your road to success because they rarely wind up as clients and in the process diminish your confidence level as a closer. You must understand that your time is your most valuable asset. As crude as it may sound, you don't have time for information seekers and individuals not interested or in the position to open whatever type of account you are presenting. You only have so much time to work with a certain amount of people: Time is money so spend it wisely! C "Weak" qualifications will lead to what I call a "sales inferiority complex". The prospect rarely takes your calls and sounds like he is doing you a favor by just talking to you. When a prospect gives you the rush act, and says just send the literature, you can be relatively sure that invariably it will be a "weak" qualification. The literature you send will probably wind up in the prospect's "circular file", commonly known as a waste paper basket. In my opinion, the only correct qualification is the one who you believe is an excellent prospect to become your client and meets the following ingredients: 1. Suitable For Speculation - Prospect is prepared to take a calculated risk for the possiblity of substantial profit. 2. Open-Minded and Willing to Invest - Prospect is a serious investor and has an open mind toward what you are presenting where he is willing and in a position to invest if he likes what he sees. FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY ~2- ROAD TO RICHES ... (cont'd) 3. In a Liquid Position to Invest - Prospect has a specified amount of liquid risk capital now or can liquidate stocks or other liquid assets within 30 days to get that amount if he wants to invest. 4, Will Read Literature - Prospect promises to read what you will send and give the professional courtesy of reviewing it with you. It's a lot better to find out the prospect is not interested or suitable right away than chasing after him and wasting your time for several weeks. If you caught the prospect at a bad time and can't confirm the prior four points, requalify later or the next day. If you have a good supply of leads, especially with the current increased public interest in stocks after making 20 to 30 contacts in a day you should average 8 to 10 strong qualifications. (If you are getting much more than that you probably aren't qualifying right or you are using very expensive fresh advertised leads). Forty to fifty strong qualifications a week should represent at least 5 to 8 deals weekly and the foundation of building a successful business. Don't forget: Time is money. You wouldn't think of wasting your money so don't ever time. The road to riches starts with the correct qualification! FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY QUALIFYING FOR MONEY STRATTON Oakmont, INc. FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY QUALIFYING FOR MONEY Experienced stock brokers will tell you, there is virtually no difference in the effort expended in closing an account for $5,000 or $50,000 account and the client will have a better opportunity to be successful. Unfortunately when it comes to qualifying for money many brokers go about it the wrong way. The usual qualification by most amateur brokers is, " ow much risk capital do you have for speculation". When asked in this matter most prospect will ask, “what is the minimum" or give you a number much lower than they are capable of investing. I recommend considering the following qualification as a guide whenever qualifying for money: Mr. Prospect if after you receive the information, me answering your questions and concerns, your feeling comfortable with me and my firm and you decided to invest, could you comfortably handle $100,000 in liquid risk capital within the next few weeks? If the prospect indicates $100,000 is too much money, you might sa: My greatest concern is not how much you invest but to start a business relationship with you. How much risk capital do you have available now if you liked what you saw and decided to invest? By taking this approach you will qualify for much larger amounts of money. When you are concentrating on a portfolio of 100, 50 or even 25 thousand dollars and the prospect is nervous or apprehensive to open an account, as last resort, "drop closing" to a lesser amount, many times it will enable the prospect to feel comfortable enough to become your client. It's always easier going down than up. Remember, if the investor is in the financial position, its no more @ifficult closing a $160,000 than a $10,000 account. Qualify for large size accounts, always thinking and talking about’ large size accounts and your thoughts and hard work will form an attraction force bringing them to you.

YOUR THOUGHTS CAN MAKE YOU SICK OR RELEASE ENDORPHINS (OVER 50 TIMES MORE POTENT THAN MORPHINE) WHICH CAUSES ELATION AND GOOD HEALTH. AN EMOTIONALLY UPSET INDIVIDUAL IS MORE PRONE TO ACCIDENTS AND ILL HEALTH THAN AN EMOTIONALLY STABLE INDIVIDUAL. HOW CAN WE MAKE SURE WE WON'T BECOME VICTIMS OF OUR ANXIETIES? SINCE THE MIND TELLS THE BODY HOW TO ACT, THINK THE HIGHEST, MOST UPLIFTING THOUGHTS YOU CAN IMAGINE.

YOUR LEVEL OF PERSISTENCE IN THE FACE OF ADVERSITY AND DISAPPOINTMENT WILL BE A MEASURE OF BELIEF IN YOURSELF. ASSOCIATE WITH PEOPLE WHO SHARE YOUR GOALS AND WORK HABITS. YOU MUST FOLLOW THE LEADERS, WHO ARE THE BEST AT WHAT THEY DO. PROBABLY THE HARDEST THING IS GETTING STARTED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. STARTING A SALES CAREER IS LIKE FLYING A PLANE. TO GET OFF THE GROUND YOU MUST HAVE FULL THROTTLE.’ BUT, YOU CAN'T KEEP IT AT THAT SPEED OR THE ENGINE WILL BURN OUT. WHEN THE PLANE REACHES CRUISING ALTITUDE, YOU PULL BACK A LITTLE BIT ON THE THROTTLE. THIS IS THE WAY OUR SALES CAREERS ARE. TO A CERTAIN POINT, YOU HAVE TO PUT ON FULL THROTTLE TO TAKE OFF AND GET.TO THE HEIGHTS WHERE YOU CAN THEN CRUISE. ONCE YOU HAVE ACHIEVED A CERTAIN LEVEL OF SUCCESS, YOU CAN REWARD YOURSELF WITH MORE TIME FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT. FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY MEMO 122 INTERNAL USE ONLY PAGE 10F1 AN INSIGHT INTO BECOMING A BETTER SALES PROFESSIONAL BY: IRA_BOSHNACK MANAGING DIRECTOR "WE BECOME WHAT WE THINK ABOUT MOST” SALES PROFESSIONALS HAVE MADE AMERICA GREAT. THEY PROMOTE OUR CAPITALISTIC DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY. WITHOUT SALESPEOPLE, IBM, XEROX, MERRILL LYNCH, OR ANY MAJOR COMPANY COULD NEVER HAVE BECOME A FINANCIAL SUCCESS. THE PROFESSIONAL SALESPERSON IS THE HIGHEST PAID SEGMENT OF OUR SOCIETY. I HAVE NEVER MET A BORN SALES PROFESSIONAL, NO MATTER HOW GOOD HE. OR SHE MAY BE. EVERY SUPER SALESPERSON IS A TRAINED PROFESSIONAL. THEY ARE WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE OF SUCCESS. THEY HAVE MADE THE COMMITMENT TO PRACTICE, DRILL, AND REHEARSE THE KEY INGREDIENTS OF SUCCESS IN THEIR FIELD. NO ONE HAS EVER® BEEN DENIED THE RIGHT TO WEALTH AND SUCCESS BY ANYONE BUT THEMSELVES. WHAT YOU FACE IS AN ENORMOUS NEED FOR A THING CALLED EFFORT. PROFESSIONAL EFFORT, STUDY AND APPLICATION. YOU ARE EARNING TODAY EXACTLY WHAT YOUR SKILL, EFFORT AND WILL POWER HAVE ALLOWED YOU TO EARN. EVERYONE DEEP DOWN INSIDE HAS A VAST RESERVOIR OF TALENT AND ENERGY THAT CAN BE TAPPED AND DIRECTED TOWARDS ACHIEVING SUPER SUCCESS. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS HAVE A BURNING DESIRE AND WILLINGNESS TO PAY THE PRICE OF SELF-DISCIPLINE, HARD WORK AND PERSISTENCE IN ACHIEVING YOUR SALES GOALS. ONE OF THE SECRETS TO SUCCESSFUL SALES IS POSITIVE THINKING AND THE ABILITY TO UTILIZE MENTAL VISUAL IMAGERY. OUR BEHAVIOR IS GOVERNED BY IMAGES OF ACHIEVEMENT AND WITHOUT THESE IMAGES WE CANNOT MOBILIZE AND MOTIVATE OURSELVES TO ACHIEVE OUR GOALS. THE POWER OF MENTAL VISUALIZATION CAN HARNESS A FLOOD OF SENSORY VISUAL IMAGES TO REINFORCE AN INTELLECTUALLY FORMULATED PLAN THAT WILL RELEASE AN UNLIMITED SOURCE OF ENTHUSIASM TO APPLY TOWARDS INCREASED SALES. WHEN YOUR IMAGINATION IS HARNESSED AND FOCUSED ON THE BENEFITS AND REWARDS OF SUCCESS, THE FIRES OF MOTIVATION ARE LIT ALONG WITH THE SELF-DISCIPLINE AND SACRIFICE TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS. THE POWER OF MENTAL VISUALIZATION SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN FOR GRANTED. THE POWER OF THE MIND AND VISUAL IMAGERY CAN BE FURTHER UNDERSTOOD BY SIMPLY THINKING HOW WHEN WE ARE HUNGRY AND THINK ABOUT OUR FAVORITE FOOD, OUR MOUTHS BEGIN TO WATER OR WHEN WE HEAR FANTASTIC NEWS A RUSH OF GOOD FEELINGS ENVELOPES US; OR WHEN WE HEAR HORRIBLE NEWS, WE’ FEEL A GUT RIPPING SENSATION IN THE PIT OF OUR STOMACHS. REMEMBER THAT EVERY GREAT WORK AND DISCOVERY FIRST EXISTED IN SOMEONE'S MIND AS A VIVID IMAGE. EVERY ACT AND DEED THAT HAS ENABLED MANKIND TO EXCEL AND ACHIEVE SUCCESS WAS FIRST BORN IN SOMEONE' MIND. MAKE NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, INTENSE POSITIVE THINKING AND VISUAL IMAGERY CAN CHANGE ALL OF YOUR LIVES. THE ABILITY TO TRANSLATE ONE'S HOPE AND ASPIRATIONS INTO POSITIVE SENSORY-RICH IMAGES IS THE CUTTING EDGE WHICH SEPARATES THE HIGH ACHIEVER FROM THE RUN OF THE.MILL EVERYDAY PERSON.

As 1994’s first quarter draws to a close, Bloomberg LP reports those dealers underwrote the top five IPO performers for the period. The top issues were Octagon, up 139.3% from its original offering price, Scan- source up 127.5%, Modern Modalities up 10.25%. MH Meyerson and WIZ Technology each gained 100%. In most of these IPOs, the issu- ing broker was the sole under- writer of a unit offering. A unit offering consists of common stock plus warrants to buy a fixed number of shares at a fixed price within a specified period of time. Within a short period after the of: fering date, the securities can be traded separately as unit, com- mon stock and warrant. The total amount of capital raised varied from a high of $10.5 million for Octagon for a low of $2.5 million for Modern Medical. And each was a unit offering. Winners: The Lake Success, NY investment banker, Stratton Oakmont, Inc., underwrote two _— On WALL. FAINANCIAL PLANNING STREET ee Tisights & Analyiis for Successful Brouers & Managers The IPO Aftermarket of these-winners Octagon, a com- pany providing environment management and waste control, and MH Meyerson & Co., a Jersey City, NJ, based over-the- counter-securities dealer. ‘On February Il, Octagon of- fered 11.5 million units priced at $7 a unit. Each unit consisted of two shares of common stock and two warrants. The units have traded as high as $19.50 a unit and closed on March 31 at $1675 a unit. An investor can also buy the common stock, selling at $6.625 a share and the warrants, selling at $1.75 a warrant. However, get- ting printed information may prove difficult — at press time, only the company’s prospectus was available. Stratton Oakmont itself has re- ceived some press coverage. In February, the firm settled Secur- ities and Exchange Commission allegations of wrongdoing in manipulating the market price of Nova Capital’s securities. Strat- ton agreed to pay $2 million to customers and an SEC fine of $500,000. In addition, its then- president was barred from the brokerage industry and two other senior executivies were handed SEC suspensions. Nevertheless, Stratton Oakmont is king of the hill in the 1994 first-quarter sweepstakes of top-performing IPOs. 10 FINANCIAL PLANNING ON WALL STREET May 1994 IPO Focus reported by New York based Lynch Jones & Ryan's exclusive IPO Aftermarket Report, edited by Jack Fitzgibbon. IPO Aftermarket Report can now be received through Unilink on ADP, ILK, MarketMax, Telerate ‘and Quotron. Losers: Near or at the the “‘wish-I-hadn’t bought” list is L.A.T. Sportswear. At $5 a share, it's down 50% from its January 25 offering price. The company manufactures knitted sportswear and distributes undecorated garments for major garment manufacturers. The stock was in trouble from its star. Its original preprice talk was $13 to $15 a share, but the shares sold at $10. The stock closed out its first day of trading at $9.125 a share, off 88%. Despite glowing reports from The Robinson- Humphrey company, L.A.T. Sportwear's banker, the stock continued to sink. On March 7, the company reported lower-than- expected fiscal 1994 earnings (S74 a share versus estimated $84). Ten days later, Robinson- ‘Humphrey and the company were served with a suit alleging a material omission from its registration statement and pro- spectus.
