Dear TMA Members and Turnaround Professionals:

It is our pleasure to invite you to attend the 2nd Annual Turnaround Management Association (TMA) Western Regional Conference at the renowned La Costa Resort in Carlsbad, CA, July 14-16, 2010. We encourage you to take advantage of this special
event - a dynamic opportunity to “continue the conversation” with fellow professionals as we examine sources of deal flow and explore turnaround opportunities in the upcoming year.

Based on the very positive feedback that you provided after last year’s regional conference, once again, the educational programs are designed to break from the traditional lecture structure, and professional networking will continue to be emphasized at the 2010 TMA Western Regional Conference. Our goal is to provide a forum for relevant, meaningful content and the opportunity to make an impression on new professional contacts that extends beyond trading business cards and sharing a cocktail.

We are energized about the 2nd Annual Western Regional Conference. The conference board has worked very hard to build a memorable event and we hope that you will support the TMA, get involved, and “continue the conversation”!

Conference Co-Chairs,

Scott Gautier
