March 1,2011 To Whom It May Concern: I have had the pleasure of working alongside Howard Miller since 2006, when I met him while serving on the committee of the South Beach Wine and Food Festival. We worked closely together and I was always in awe of his immense public relations sensibilities and his sawy in dealing with the media. Howard impressed me with his abilities to be consistently present and responsive at the meetings, afterhours, and whenever he was needed - regardless of how many clients he served at the time. As a peer, it seemed to me that Howard had the uncanny ability of making each client feel like they are the most important one and that they have his firm's undivided attention. When I finally became a client of Howard R. Miller Communications, I learned that the reason it "seemed" to be that way is because it, in fact, was. In 2010 I had the honor of accepting a position as the Vice President of Marketing and Communications for The Continental Group, a subsidiary of FirstService Corporation. Our company was under contract with a different public relations firm while we were in the review process of over a dozen advertising agencies. It was through this circumstance that Howard and I reconnected. Howard presented our executive team with a stellar and on-target proposal that spoke to the needs of our company. Within 4 weeks of Howard's presentation, our team decided to terminate our relationship with our other PR Agency, and bring on HRMC as our full service agency. Having now worked with HRMC for the past 4 months, I can attest to the fact that they are not only able to support their client properly, but that their learning curve and ramp- up times are incomparable to other firms that I have worked with. We have made great strides in the short time that Howard and his team have serviced The Continental Group and we are honored to be working with them and to be represented by them. I write this letter without hesitation to recommend both Howard Miller (the individual) and Howard R. Miller Communications to your organization. I am happy to answer any specific questions you may have and I welcome you to contact me, should you desire to do so. You can reach me directly at 954-378-1086 or by email at styqielski@thecontinentalqroupinc.com. Regards, Shelly Tygielski Vice President of Marketing and Communications Page 35 of 44 Bd No 11-02-02
