CMKM Diamonds Appoints Mark Faulk as New CEO

TYLER, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CMKM Diamonds, Inc. CEO and Chairman of the Board Kevin West announced today that Mark Faulk has been named as the new CEO and President of CMKM Diamonds, Inc., effectively immediately. Faulk is a nationally recognized advocate for stock market reform, and has performed extensive research on CMKM Diamonds in the process of writing “The Naked Truth: Investing in the Stock Play of a Lifetime.” Kevin West will remain with the Company as Chairman of the Board, and will continue to assist in all aspects of Company business.

Mr. Faulk stated: “I am honored to have been chosen to lead the Company as we move forward to return assets and value to CMKM Diamonds. I have spent the past five years advocating reform in our financial system, and this new challenge will allow me to put that knowledge to work in a practical way that will benefit CMKM and its loyal shareholders. Kevin West and general counsel Bill Frizzell have worked tirelessly on behalf of the Company, and their efforts should be applauded by all CMKM shareholders.

“This is not a passing of the baton, it is instead simply reinforcing the troops,” Faulk continued. “With the newly appointed Advisory Committee and Board of Directors, the Company has laid a strong foundation that is capable of meeting any challenges that CMKM may face. My immediate goal is to continue to add to that base, which will allow the Company to become even more aggressive in their legal battles and widen the scope of their efforts.”

Faulk also said, “In the very near future, we plan to announce the expansion of our legal team to maximize our efforts to return real value to CMKM Diamonds. We are also in the process of filling positions for a Research Committee to aid the Company in its efforts. I intend to continue West’s plans to utilize CMKM’s greatest asset, which is its extensive and knowledgeable shareholder base. There is truly strength in numbers. While we intend to keep the door open for those who wish to negotiate settlements to atone for their actions against the Company, we will move forward aggressively in our legal efforts.”

Chairman Kevin West states, “I want to thank the newly appointed Board of Directors and the Advisory Committee for their help, recommendations, and unanimous decision to select Mark Faulk as the new leader of this Company. I believe this is a high point in this Company’s history and Mr. Faulk is the most qualified person to take over the leadership role and move CMKM to the next level. I look forward to working with our new team as we continue to grow in strength and numbers.”

Faulk also announced his resignation as CEO of Togi Entertainment, Inc., and wants to thank those who he has worked so closely with over the past two years. In order to avoid any conflicts of interest, The Faulking Truth Show on Toginet.com will no longer be aired. Co-hosts DeWayne Reeves and Mark Faulk will do one final show this Friday from 8:30-10 AM CDT on www.toginet.com to discuss Faulk’s hiring, and will take calls from shareholders for the last half of the show. The toll free caller number is 1-877-864-4869.

Faulk also intends to conduct a monthly CEO radio chat in order to keep shareholders informed about current developments, and to answer questions that shareholders may have about the Company’s activities. Also, a new Company phone line will be set up in the very near future, and will be posted on the company website. The Company requests that all phone calls be directed to the new company phone line so that legal counsel can maximize their time and efforts on the task at hand.

CMKM also announced that, in addition to the new CEO and Research Committee, they are currently in negotiations to add several attorneys to the legal team to assist General Counsel Bill Frizzell in his actions on behalf of the Company.
