Potential Dissenters are urged to carefully read this letter and the accompanying documents very carefully as perfection of your rights as a Potential Dissenter under the NGCL requires you to strictly satisfy all requirements under the NGCL. The following is a discussion of the relevant transactions related to the Merger, a summary of the material terms of the Merger Agreement, and a description of your rights as a Potential Dissenter under the NGCL. OVERVIEW; STOCK PURCHASES As you may know, on November 30, 2005, CSC purchased (the "STOCK PURCHASES") 90% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of GSA, par value $0.001 per share (the "GSA COMMON STOCK") from certain holders of GSA Common Stock pursuant to three (3) separate stock purchase agreements, copies of each of which are attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENTS"). In connection with the Stock Purchases, CSC transferred to Knightsbridge Capital, an unaffiliated entity, 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of GSA Common Stock that CSC had purchased for services rendered by Knightsbridge in connection with the Stock Purchases (the "KNIGHTSBRIDGE STOCK FEE"). As a result of the Stock Purchases and the payment of the Knightsbridge Fee, GSA came to own 85% of the issued and outstanding shares of GSA Common Stock and therefore GSA became a majority-owned subsidiary of CSC. As CSC desired to assume the reporting obligations of GSA and avail itself of the benefits of having is stock traded on the Pink Sheets, on February 10, 2006 (the "MERGER APPROVAL DATE"), pursuant to written consents in lieu of meetings, all of the members of the Board of Directors (the "BOARD") of CSC and all of the members of the Board of GSA, as well as the holders of 4,905,002 outstanding shares (i.e., a majority) of the Class A common stock of CSC, par value $0.001 per share (the "CSC CLASS A COMMON STOCK"), and the holders of 42,500,000 outstanding shares (i.e., a majority) of GSA Common Stock approved: (i) the Agreement and Plan of Merger, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "MERGER AGREEMENT"), and (ii) the merger (the "MERGER") of CSC with and into GSA with GSA becoming the surviving corporation (the "SURVIVING CORPORATION") in accordance with the NGCL and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"). The material terms of the Merger are discussed below. On February 13, 2006, the Surviving Corporation will cause Westminster Securities, a market maker, to file, for and on behalf of the Surviving Corporation, a Form 15c211 with the National Association of Securities Dealers (the "NASD") to cause the Surviving Corporation's common stock to be quoted on the Pink Sheets. On February 14, 2005, the Surviving Corporation will file a registration statement on Form Sb-2 (the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT") with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") to seek registration of approximately 67,720,787 shares of the Surviving Corporation's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "NEW CSC COMMON STOCK"). FIRST DISSENTER NOTICE LETTER FERUARY 10, 2006 PAGE 2 MATERIAL TERMS OF THE MERGER Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL and NGCL, at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.6 of the Merger Agreement): (i) CSC will merge with and into GSA, (ii) the separate corporate existence of CSC will cease to exist and its Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws will be terminated, and (iii) GSA will be the Surviving Corporation in the Merger and will succeed to and assume all the rights and obligations of CSC in accordance with the NGCL and the DGCL, and will continue its existence under the NGCL.

At the Effective Time, all shares of GSA Common Stock owned by CSC immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger will be cancelled.

The terms and conditions of each stock option and warrant to purchase shares of GSA's Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger will remain the same, except that such option or warrant will be an option or warrant, as the case may be, to purchase shares of New GSA Common Stock at the GSA Exchange Ratio.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exchange procedure for holders of GSA Common Stock may be altered by the Board of the Surviving Corporation in its sole and absolute discretion, and/or as a result of such holders exercising their dissenters' rights under the NGCL as described below. SOLICITATION OF APPROVAL OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND THE MERGER While both the Merger Agreement and the Merger have already been approved by the requisite majority of directors and holders of GSA Common Stock as noted above, in sending you this letter, we are soliciting your approval of the Merger Agreement and the Merger. If you signify your approval of the Merger Agreement and the Merger by executing the consent form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the "CONSENT FORM"), returning the Consent Form to us within thirty (30) days of the date hereof, and exchanging your existing stock certificates representing shares of GSA Common Stock as set forth in the Merger Agreement or as otherwise instructed by us, you will receive a new stock certificate representing ownership of the New CSC Common Stock. If you comply with the foregoing, then you will be deemed to have waived any rights you may have as a Dissenting GSA Stockholder as described below. DISSENTERS' RIGHTS GENERALLY UNDER THE NGCL Any issued and outstanding shares of GSA Common Stock held by any person or entity other than CSC immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger (a "DISSENTING GSA STOCKHOLDER") who objects to the Merger and complies with all the provisions of Section 92A.380 of the NGCL concerning the right of holders of GSA Common Stock to dissent from the Merger and require appraisal of their shares of GSA Common Stock ("DISSENTING SHARES") will NOT be converted as described in Section 1.4(c) of the Merger Agreement but will become the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due to such Dissenting GSA Stockholder pursuant to Section 92A.380 of the NGCL. If, after the Effective Time, such Dissenting GSA Stockholder withdraws his or its demand for appraisal or fails to perfect or otherwise loses his or its right of appraisal, in any case pursuant to the NGCL, his or its Dissenting Shares will be deemed to be converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive shares of New CSC Common Stock as described in Section 1.4(c) of the Merger Agreement. Please note that stockholders of CSC are not entitled to dissenters' or appraisal rights under applicable state law in connection with the Merger. FIRST DISSENTER NOTICE LETTER FERUARY 10, 2006 PAGE 4 ASSERTING DISSENTERS RIGHTS UNDER THE NGCL Pursuant to Section 92A.430 of the DGCL, we are sending you this letter within ten (10) days of the Merger Approval Date. As required under said section of the NGCL, we have attached as Exhibit D hereto a Demand Form that you should fill-out and return to us if you desire to assert your dissenters' rights under the NGCL in lieu of receiving your pro rata share of the New GSA Common Stock as outlined above. We must receive your completed Demand Form no later than thirty (30) days after your receipt of this letter (the "DEADLINE"). Failure to complete or sign the Demand Form or return it to our offices by the Deadline will be deemed a waiver of your dissenters' rights in accordance with the NGCL, and in such instances you will instead receive your pro rata share of the New GSA Common Stock as outlined above. Within 30 days of our receipt of your completed, signed Demand Form, we will pay you our estimate of the fair value of your GSA Common Stock calculated AS OF IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE AS REQUIRED UNDER THE NGCL. In other words, the fair value of dissenters' shares will NOT reflect any change in value attributed to the Merger, the filing of the Form 15c211, the filing of the Registration Statement, or any other subsequent event. Rather, the fair value will be determined by estimating the value of your shares of GSA Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Date. Since shares of GSA Common Stock were not actively traded on a national securities exchange or other public market as of such date, the GSA Board has concluded that the most equitable method of determining the fair value of such shares is by reference to the only transactions that involved the sale of GSA Common Stock around such time of which the Board is aware; namely, by reference to the Stock Purchases. Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreements, CSC purchased 90% of the issued and outstanding shares of GSA Common Stock (i.e., a total of 45 million shares out of 50 million outstanding shares were purchased) in exchange for CSC paying total consideration of $50,000 to the GSA stockholders who sold their shares.(1) Accordingly, based on said transactions, the GSA Board has determined that the estimated fair value of each share of GSA Common Stock as of the Effective Date to be $0.00111 (the "FAIR VALUE ESTIMATE"). The Boards of both CSC and GSA, as well as the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock of both entities, approved of the Merger because they believe it to be in the best interests of their respective company and stockholders. Indeed, prior to the Effective Date, GSA is merely a public shell whose shares are not actively traded or marketable and therefore has little prospect of generating significant revenues to potentially drive up its stock price absent a merger with an operating entity. In contrast, CSC has been an operating company for many years, and has developed patented technologies to automatically screen and block outbound calls in real-time against federal, state, wireless, third party and in-house Do-Not-Call lists. Thus, the merger of CSC with and into GSA is in the best interest of both companies because: (i) the Surviving Corporation will assume the reporting obligations of GSA; (ii) through the filing of the Form 15c211, the Surviving Corporation's capital stock (i.e., the New CSC Common Stock) will be actively quoted on the Pink Sheets; and (iii) the former GSA stockholders who receive shares of New CSC Common Stock in the exchange described above will hold stock in a company that has actual operations and assets from which revenues could potentially be generated, which in-turn could increase the price of their stock beyond that which it would have been absent the Merger. FIRST DISSENTER NOTICE LETTER FERUARY 10, 2006 PAGE 5 Accordingly, the GSA Board reiterates its conclusion that the Merger is in the best interest of all concerned parties, including GSA stockholders, and therefore strongly recommends that you (a) approve of the Merger by executing and sending us the completed Consent Form, and (b) waive your rights as a Dissenting GSA Stockholder. While the GSA Board has provided you with the Fair Value Estimate noted above, we are required by the NGCL to send you our actual determination of the fair value of the dissenters' shares within thirty (30) days of receiving the enclosed completed, executed Demand Form (the "ACTUAL FAIR VALUE"). At this time, there is no reason to think that there will be any difference between the Fair Value Estimate and the Actual Fair Value. Within thirty (30) days of your receipt of the Actual Fair Value determination and payment of same, you must either accept such determination and payment or inform us in writing of your decision to reject such determination and payment and instead demand that we pay you your estimate of the fair value of your shares (the "DISSENTER'S FAIR VALUE ESTIMATE"). We then have sixty (60) days to either accept and pay the Dissenter's Fair Value Estimate or reject the Dissenter's Fair Value Estimate and instead commence a proceeding in Nevada district court for a judicial determination of fair value, which will be binding on us and all dissenters. IN LIGHT OF THE FOREGOING, GSA'S BOARD URGES YOU TO NOT ASSERT YOUR DISSENTERS' RIGHTS AND INSTEAD ELECT TO RECEIVE YOUR PRO RATA SHARE OF THE NEW GSA COMMON STOCK BY SIGNING THE ACCOMPANYING CONSENT FORM AND SENDING IT TO THE COMPANY AS INSTRUCTED BELOW. However, if you do elect to assert your dissenters' rights, you are urged to carefully review the enclosed excerpts from the NGCL, complete and sign the enclosed Demand Form, and return the Demand Form within thirty (30) days of your receipt of this letter. Failure to strictly comply with the requirements of the NGCL will be deemed a waiver of your dissenters' rights thereunder and you will instead receive your pro rata share of the New GSA Common Stock as described in this letter. If you elect to assert your dissenters' rights by completing and returning the accompanying Demand Form to us, then pursuant to Section 92A.430 of the NGCL, we hereby instruct you to deposit all stock certificates for GSA Common Stock that you hold ("GSA STOCK CERTIFICATES") with our Corporate Secretary by sending the GSA Stock Certificates to the following address via a reputable national courier services, prepaid with proof of delivery and signature required: Mr. Barry Brookstein, Corporate Secretary GSA Publications, Inc. 90 Pratt Oval Glen Cove, NY 11542 YOU MUST CAUSE THE DELIVERY OF YOUR GSA STOCK CERTIFICATES TO OUR CORPORATE SECRETARY AS NOTED ABOVE BY NO LATER THAN FIVE (5) CALENDAR DAYS AFTER YOU SEND US YOUR COMPLETED, SIGNED DEMAND FORM. You may elect to send your GSA Stock Certificates to us together with your completed, signed Demand Form. If we do not receive your GSA Stock Certificates by such date, you will be deemed to have waived your dissenters' rights under the NGCL. If you do not desire to assert your dissenters' rights, you should execute the accompanying Consent Form and send it to our Corporate Secretary at the address noted above via a reputable national courier services, prepaid with proof of delivery and signature required.
