Sports,

Unfortunately on some level you are correct. Should RCP not post Financials by EOM they will be delisted and barred from re-instatement on SL CapEx.

At that point RCP Shareholders would need to seek their own redress with RCP's principles. To be very frank, since its re-listing here from WSE (which Arbitrage did as a FAVOR) this entity has done almost nothing to communicate with or entice its shareholders or potential investors.

It re-listed here 03/01/2008, paid a solitary $0.05 dividend in June and has been essentially MUTE since.

I can certainly empathize if Kavai is ill but one would think that if that's the case another Officer could step in to assume the RESPONSIBILITIES RCP has to its Shareholders.

Seeing as that has not occurred SL CapEx has little choice but to delist RCP for cause.

Unfortunate words, but true IMO.

Royal Chartered Properties (RCP) DELISTED Effective 11/01/2008 - 12:01AM SLT

Royal Chartered Properties (RCP) has been DELISTED from the SL Capital Exchange effective 12:01AM 11/01/2008 for material Non-Compliance to SL Capital Exchange Policies.

To be very frank, the principles and Officers of RCP have elected to completely abdicate their responsibilities to RCP shareholders in spite of many diligent attempts to compel compliance.

RCP Shareholders are encouraged to seek redress directly via RCP's CEO - Kavai Onizuka via contact in-world or via GMail to kavaionizuka@gmail.com

The RCP Forums will remain active through end-of-month November to allow interested parties to communicate and/or archive information relative to RCP's history.

Edited by author Aug 21st, 21:09

NOTICE OF DEFAULT ISSUED - Metanetwork Media (MNM) - 08/21/2008 - 05:06PM SLT

To Whom it May Concern;

This message constitutes a FORMAL NOTICE of DEFAULT issued to Metanetwork Media(MNM) pursuant to the continued Listing Requirements as published at SL Capital http://www.slcapex.com/content/listing

Should appropriate remedies NOT be made on of before 11:59pm (SLT)08/31/2008 MNM will be DELISTED for CAUSE.

Notwithstanding the extraordinary effort put forward by both myself and Scott Nestler to assist MNM Shareholders in compelling the pricipal(s?) of MNM to resolve its differences with its former employees and Investors it would appear that the principal(s) of MNM remain largely uncooperative and combative. We've made NO measurable progress to resolve or refute the claims that have been made.

We did receive an email late Wednesday afternoon from Jamar Freeze claiming that both he and MNM, Inc. were being represented by counsel, specifically Havona Madama of Madama Griffitts O'Hara LLP.

As of 5:00 PM this evening calls to the published number for the firm have not been returned.

Persons seeking to pursue remedies directly might wish to also try contacting them;

Madama Griffitts O'Hara LLP
450 Park Avenue South, Sixth Floor
New York, NY 10016

Robert C. Griffitts rg@madama-law.com
Mary Payton O'Hara mo@madana-law.com

We have also this evening taken the extraordinary measure of locking all MNM Forum threads to help preserve the integrity of the historical record relating to MNM should we be called upon as a Custodian of Records.

Persons wishing to continue posting NEWS and INFORMATION relating to MNM are requested to confine their comments to the following thread.

CEO's Report and Forward Guidance
=================================

BAY Shareholders,

A decent month all things considered... During November, we'll be working to put together a 24/7 Video Entertainment stream to provide a relaxing multimedia experience for the SIM. Look for Music Video's, Cartoons, Machinima and other fun streams within the next few weeks. We're also working to put together a Programming Guide and Event Calendar for the Amphitheater. It is also available for Resident Events - give me a shout if you're looking to host something there.

Also, Bo Beck Gallery should be back on-line displaying Original SL Artwork and RL photography before Thanksgiving. I'm pleased to report that my former Gallery Manager, Cyndi Honey, is back! Look for an announcement regarding a Grand Re-Opening Celebration Soooon...

I'm still recruiting for an Avi to manage our full-line clothing retail shop and hope to be back online just in time for the holiday shopping season.

Until next month, Blessings!

On to the Financials...

CEO's Report and Forward Guidance
=================================

Please find the October 2008 Income Statement and Balance Sheet for BIG appended below. I will also repost them in the BIG Forum for archival purposes.

BIG Shareholders should be VERY pleased with the recent BIG Asset Realignment. It has immediately improved the BIG Asset base with a pool of assets that have much better performance prospects than our prior weighting. The new portfolio strategy is primarily targeted toward PRIM PRODUCT and SERVICE companies and seeks to minimize exposure to SL Real Estate-based businesses. There are still a couple of under-performing R.E. Co's in the portfolio - will look to rotate out of those where possible.

I am extremely optimistic about SL CapEx's future prospects and the BIG portfolio weighting clearly demonstrates that belief. Going forward, I'll continue to look to monetize our profits regularly and will always distribute dividends when those opportunities avail themselves.

Blessings!

BTX - Beck Technical Research II - October 2008 Financials - Posted 11/06/2008

CEO's Report and Forward Guidance
=================================

BTX Shareholders,

I'm somewhat sanguin about BTX's performance since its recent reorganization. Share Price and Volume seems to be on PARK and I've been unable to generate any BTX mojo in either direction. At some level I'm pleased that longterm shareholders have been unwilling to part with their shares but it's sure making it difficult for me to make a market in BTX (as I'm not all that interested in parting with any of mine either! I've been diligently guarding the Treasury Reserve in anticipation of Capital needs to launch the FutSL Campaign and have PRICED the Treasury Shares at what I believe is fair market... tell me, what's wrong with my math? Please!

I'm still working on the FutSL League Website and League Charter as time permits and am still guardedly opptimistic that we're on track to launch its inaugural season in January of 2009. The Stadium is ready and just waiting for Bo and the BTX shareholders to get a move on - we'll need the Capital by End of Month if we're to stay on track.

BTX has taken a considerable position in the SL Capital Exchange as part of Scott Nestler and I acquiring the Exchange. In addition to the 100+K shares of BAY in its portfolio, BTX now directly controls 2M shares of SLCX. I am confident that this investment will provide a handsome return on investment for BTX shareholders. We've also lent L$40K to BTX's sister Co's BAY and BIG to allow them each to distribute a dividend without reducing their Investment Positions. I expect to recoup those funds during the next month from their Operating Profits.

Please find the October Income Statement and Balance Sheet below for your review. Until next month... Blessings!

Real Taxes for Real Money Made by Online Game Players

Successful online video game players and Internet surfers in China have found ways to make real money from virtual assets. Now China’s taxman wants a piece of the action.

The State Administration of Taxation said on its Web site Wednesday (in Chinese) that China will impose a personal income tax of 20% on profit from virtual money. The announcement, which was distributed to local tax bureaus, specifically takes aim at those who buy virtual currency from gamers and surfers and sell it to others at a mark-up. Taxation officials are granted the right to determine the original price of online virtual currency if the individual fails to provide proof of an original price, it says.

The policy would cover China’s legions of online gamers, who can use online virtual currency to buy better equipment and new powers for their online warriors. But it also affects millions of others who use virtual currencies on instant-messaging services and Web portals. For example, users of Tencent Holdings’ popular QQ chat service can earn Q-coins they can use to purchase online game equipments and buy e-gifts. Statistics from research firm iResearch show that China’s virtual currency market is growing at a yearly rate of 15% to 20%, and several billion yuan worth of virtual money is traded in the market.

The fast growth already has raised fears among China’s policymakers, who last year restricted the conversion of virtual currency into yuan. Among other reasons cited in this Chinese language Xinhua report, they feared the practice could lead to inflation as well as money-laundering.

This week’s move has become a hot topic among Chinese Web users nationwide. Over 6,000 comments were left by netizens on Netease.com one day after the news appeared on the portal site (in Chinese here).

Many said it’s unfair to tax on individuals while internet companies are exempt. “Tax everything and no refund at all. This time, it even charges 20 percent. No wonder the country’s the world’s No. 1 tax bearer,” wrote one netizen on Netease.com.

In an online poll by the Sina.com, over 70% out of about 3,000 people who voted were against the new taxation decision. The biggest doubt is how the actual sum of property will be evaluated. Blogger Ruan Zhanjiang wrote that, “many game players are classmates or friends in real life, thus most of them won’t have credentials when trading virtual money. It’s difficult to prove the original value of virtual currency, though.” (Original here in Chinese).

Still, some believe the government’s move can help better protect the property right of online gamers. Identity theft has long been a fast-growing problem for online gamers in the high-profit virtual currency trading market.
