Curt Pires served as a consultant on a number of television and media projects during the establishment of the NBA's
newest franchise, the Charlotte Bobcats and its television entity CSET. (Carolina Sports & Entertainment Television) Curt
was a consummate professional who brought energy and insight to all his assigned projects. He provided our organization with
operational shorthand when time was a critical factor in trying to get a team, an arena, and a regional sports cable network
on line in a very short time frame.
He was respected by all
of his co-workers, and proved to be a tireless worker who was focused on getting positive results with the greatest amount
of efficiency. I recommend him with all due enthusiasm, and do not have an iota of reservation about his ability to bring
value to any targeted project.

To
Whom It May Concern,
I understand you may be considering Curt Pires and his company, CAP Sports Group, for representation
of your content. This letter is to verify that CAP Sports Group has been successfully supplying programming to my cable television
network, MAVTV, for over four years. Curt's track record with our company is impeccable.
We depend on CAP Sports Group for the majority of our barter programming and expect to continue to do so in the coming
years. Curt's big network background with companies like ESPN gives him a leg up on his competition because he understands
the needs of cable networks and does a great job cultivating his relationship with us.
We have had such a positive working experience with CAP Sports Group that we refer producers to them quite often.
We are confident in Curt's abilities to find them distribution opportunities that others can't. I have no reservations in
recommending that you work with CAP Sports Group as well.
Please
feel free to contact me directly if you have any additional questions.
Sincerely,
Rob Stevens

RE: Curt Pires
Dear Sir or Madame:
Curt has worked for me as an outside source of sports programming for America One
Television since 2005. During that period, Curt has been instrumental in sourcing North American sports programming. Curt
has also been a key figure in maintaining our long lasting action sports relationships that have supported the growth of the
Network.
Curt is a hard-working self-starter who invariably
understands exactly what a project is all about from the outset, and how to accomplish it quickly and effectively. During
his time with America One, Curt has sourced numerous high quality sporting events on simple, straightforward terms. He is
a resourceful, creative, and solution-oriented person who frequently uses innovative approaches to acquiring and delivering
programming.
Based on my experience working with Curt, I can
unreservedly recommend him to you for any programming needs. If you would like further elaboration, feel free to call me at
