Executive Summary

The Greatest Expedition in History We are offering a chance for a few visionary investors to participate in what may be the Greatest Expedition of all time. There will be risk, adventure, and hopefully a very satisfying scientific and economic return. For many centuries people have been fascinated with the prospect that the Earth might be hollow. In the 1600’s Edmund Halley put his formidable scientific credibility behind the idea. Many others have done their best to tell the story, including Jules Verne. Although he was a fiction writer, Mr. Verne might be the single most important inspiration behind the entire NASA effort to reach the Moon in 1969. But after all this history, no one has actually gone to the North Pole regions to investigate the theory that there may be an opening in the crust to an interior void of the planet. Geologists have been aided by Internet linking of seismographic accelerometers to conduct an CAT Scan of the Earth each time there is an earthquake. Of course, like most modern scientists, they mold the data to fit their current paradigm. The more than 600,000 seismograms have been recently analyzed by Dr. Wysessions and revealed an entire ocean underneath the Atlantic Ocean. Jan Lambrecht authored a reanalysis of the seismographic data and revealed an Earth that looks quite different than the one being taught to geological students today. One with a hollow core.

This is primarily a scientific expedition. The following areas are the key areas of study to establish a fact database to support the examination of the hypothesis. Project History In 2001, the research program began. The seismological data was reviewed. The history was studied. The astronomy and satellite data was scrutinized. The personal

6

testimony of dozens of explorers was gathered and analyzed. The physics of the current structure of the Earth was calculated and recalculated. At the end of the study, there was still not enough data to disprove the theory that the Earth might be hollow. In fact, the evidence that the Earth might be hollow became so numerous, that planning for an expedition to the Arctic region as a process for proof of the hypothesis became necessary. The work to assemble a science team began in 2004. By 2005 the plans for an expedition using the Russian nuclear powered icebreaker were formulated. Steven Currey Expeditions headed the team and began collecting scientists and engineers from around the world. By 2005, the team had grown to 22 members, but required 100 members to fund the voyage. In 2006, Steven Currey tragically passed away and was succeeded by launch manager and PhD Physicist, Brooks Agnew. Dr. Agnew’s great, great grandfather is the Scottish explorer Sir James Ross credited with the discovery of the Magnetic North Pole.

Sir James Ross Dr. Agnew is continuing the family tradition of Arctic exploration by searching for the North Pole Inner Earth opening to the core.

Planning was changed as all the funds collected at that time were refunded to all the original participants. The expedition theme was established to feature five documentary films dedicated to enlightening the world to the nature of Planet Earth and the potential of mankind’s stewardship. Current Progress Two preliminary documentaries were filmed by the leadership team. The first, produced by Global Photo Associates, was viewed in Japan by nearly 17 million people and won first prize in the Genes of Galileo film contest with an award of $10,000. The second was filmed on location in Tibet and is currently for sale as a fundraiser for the expedition. The team currently has 35 members with the following skills:

o Exopolitics o Undersea film making o Sea chromatography and physical properties o Marine Biology o Astronomy o Computer Technologies o Ancient history o Meditation training o Musical compositions o Cetation communications and biology o Earth curvature measurement o Magnetometry and Earth Magnetism analysis o Aurora Borealis photography and spectrometry o Arctic and Antarctic exploration

A call for papers will be submitted in October of 2020 to attract graduate students and various Nobel teams who wish to receive grants for participation on the expedition. Grants will be limited to $75,000 per affiliate, which will cover the attendance of three

8

persons on the expedition. All data gained by the various teams will be provided to the Company free of charge and on a non-exclusive basis. The Company shall grant any and all dissertations and thesis publishing free of charge, provided a reference is included in the publication. A 50% funding participation will be encouraged, but will not be a requirement for participation. Project Details It is strongly believed that the scientific data collected on this expedition will be invaluable to understanding the true structure of the Earth. If the oceanic depression can be located and measured, the geological team may qualify for the Nobel Prize in Geology. If the Aurora Borealis can be affirmed to originate from the inner Earth, the entire field of planetary physics may be rewritten. If the Earth can be proven to be hollow, the expedition may be the most profound discovery since the Earth was discovered to revolve around the sun. Not only are these scientific discoveries possible, but they are demanded by tens of millions of enthusiasts who have been supporting this expedition with their letters, voices, and purchases of conferences, books and films on the subject. This is by far the most exciting expedition ever attempted on Earth. Management Team Project Director – Founder of Agnew Holdings, LLC. Dr. Brooks A. Agnew is a world-renowned project and launch manager with project budgets in excess of $2 million. He is a Six Sigma Black Belt with more than $500 billion in project improvements. He is the descendant of the Scottish explorer James Ross, who is credited with the discovery of the Magnetic North Pole in 1831.

photography Marketing Plan Internet X-Squared Radio – The fastest growing talk radio program in North America is not on the airwaves. It is on the internet. Hosted by author and scientist Brooks A. Agnew, PhD, it has amassed more than 200 hours of the best authorities on Earth discussing the mysteries of the Earth and of the universe. With more than 12 million visitors each week, they have helped establish Truth Frequency Network as the best internet radio presence in the world. The unique things about Internet radio is the multi-media venue it provides for advertisement. Besides 128k stereo content, the highest in the industry, they also provide streaming video and streaming Power Point presentations for subscribers. The NPIEE promotional video was hosted at X-Squared Radio and received an average of 8,000 viewings a week. Documentaries – Global Photo Associates is a Japanese production company located in Los Angeles. In November of 2006, they featured Dr. Agnew discussing the upcoming North Pole Inner Earth Expedition. That documentary aired in May of 2007 in Japan in the Genes of Galileo science documentary film contest, which featured 20 different subjects and producers. The North Pole Inner Earth Expedition won a $10,000 First Place with more than 16,900 votes and a 9.5% market share on the Nippon Television Network. It is estimated than more than 17 million people watched the documentary on the first showing. Phoenix Science Foundation sponsored Part One of the NPIEE with on-location footage filmed in Tibet and at Mount Shasta. The 31-minute video was completed in June of 2007 and sold out of its first printing in less than one month.

The project has been exposed to many millions of people in numerous countries. The market has been primed and the people are more excited than ever to see the results of the daring crew. Brooks Agnew has an outstanding stage presence and is extremely powerful on screen. The film will be supported through every available media worldwide. It is strongly believed that the DVD’s will sell well for 20 years. Many people are calling it the greatest expedition in history. The search is on for the next planet that looks like Earth. How about exploring a new planet Earth with the most exciting expedition plan since the discovery of America? How about joining us to accomplish this expedition? Funding Requirements The management has determined that $3,500,000 will be required to cover the costs of the charter, the logistics. The post-production costs will be and additional $1.5 million. The following is a general breakdown of the expenses needed to complete the voyage and the production of the five documentaries:

o The 14-Day Charter - $2,700,000 o Logistics for equipment transfer from New York and London to Murmansk -

$200,000 o Post-Production and processing of digital film - $1,500,000 o Incidental expenses, fees, taxes, visas, and tariffs - $100,000 o Administration - $100,000 o Total Cost = $4,600,000

The Icebreaker Charter The World Leader in Polar Cruising - Quark Expeditions 93 Pilgrim Park, Suite 1 Waterbury, VT 05676 USA

Polar Experts Since 1991 Since 1991, Quark Expeditions has specialized in expedition cruising to the Arctic and Antarctica, in ships with ice-strengthened hulls or in icebreakers. Polar travelers will enjoy unparalleled technical expertise, leadership and passion for expedition trips to the Arctic and Antarctica. Our first voyage - The Transpolar Bridge Cruise - began July 27, 1991, in Murmansk, Russia. The ship was the nuclear powered icebreaker Sovetskiy Soyuz, an older sister of 50 Years of Victory. She sailed across the top of the world via Franz Josef Land, the North Pole, the New Siberian Islands, the Wrangel Island area and the Chukotka Peninsula. That first group of adventurers disembarked in Provideniya. Our second adventure began in that same city on August 18, 1991. Our Ships: Polar Adventure Ships and Icebreakers We have the largest and most diverse fleet of adventure ships in the Antarctic and Arctic. Travelers choose from more departures and a greater variety of itineraries than is available anywhere else. Within the fleet is the only nuclear-powered icebreaker – The Arctika—sailing to the North Pole. Every ship is equipped with Zodiacs - inflatable landing craft - for shore transfers and ocean-level cruising. Our Polar Adventure Ships are platforms for optional sea-kayaking, camping, mountaineering and cross-country skiing. Their small size enables them to sail channels and bays through which our icebreakers cannot sail. The ability to get close to landscapes and wildlife make these vessels extraordinary base camps for photographers. None of our vessels carries more than 128 travelers from around the world - Europe, Asia, Oceania, North America and Africa. All share a preference for travel to remote wilderness areas accompanied by Expedition Team members eager to share their knowledge and love for the Arctic and Antarctica. Our People: Technical Expertise, Leadership and Passion Our Expedition Team members understand ice conditions and the impact of weather on ships and helicopters. Some are experts in polar history, marine biology and glaciology. All are experienced and understand the rigors of expedition travel. They drive Zodiacs for ocean-level cruising. Thy lead hikes to unnamed ridges. They tell stories about polar research station assignments and wildlife encounters. The Captains and their officers and crews are skilled at navigating through pack ice under extreme conditions. The Hospitality Teams prepare meals and pour beverages during gale force winds. There isn't a more capable team of professionals.

25

Our talented people behind the scenes in IT, Finance, Operations, Administration and Management are equally passionate about the polar regions. Our team of Sales and Client Service people are who you meet before you travel. From inception, the staff of Quark Expeditions has combined a spirit of adventure with a deep sense of environmental responsibility and a strong desire to educate others about the wonders of the Arctic and Antarctica. Making these remote regions accessible to travelers is our pleasure and passion. Pro-Forma Attached. Conclusion The North Pole Inner Earth Expedition is by far the most innovative and courageous exploration effort in modern times. We are unable at this time to go to the Moon. We are decades away from manned exploration to Mars. This expedition to the North Pole region is possible and within reach. There has never been a more exciting or appropriate time to visit this region of the Earth. The science is ready. The documentary viewing public is ready. The mission is large enough to dominate documentary content for at least ten years and bold enough to make history. We want the public to participate. We want all the data to be freely released. We want this to be a privately funded event to guarantee those desires. The expedition needs support from those who can see the vision.
