<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://agoracom.com/companies/logos/562346/hub/NAG.gif?1237389546" alt="" width="300" height="71" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p><strong>North American Gem Inc. (TSX-V: NAG)</strong> announced a Letter of Intent (&#8221;LOI&#8221;) to acquire additional coal leases located in Knox County, Kentucky. The leases, referred to as the &#8220;ABGSC Leases&#8221; (approximately 410 acres), are currently being permitted for mining under permit #861-0502.</p>
<p style="padding: 0px; color: #444444; text-align: justify;">The ABGSC Leases currently has a surface mining permit application in process with the Department of Natural Resources (the &#8220;DNR&#8221;) offices in Frankfort, Kentucky and it is expected to be approved within 60-90 days. The ABGSC Leases are contiguous with the recently announced Swan Pond and Possum Hollow Leases and host a continuation of the Blue Gem and Jellico seams. Analysis of the Blue Gem seam from the Swan Pond and Possum Hollow Leases are very encouraging showing 3% ash, 0.65% sulfur and a range of 14,200 - 15,200 btu. The Jellico seam averages 6.5% ash, 1% sulfur and a range of 12,500 - 13,200 btu (Previously announced in the May 13, 2009 release).</p>
<p style="padding: 0px; color: #444444; text-align: justify;">
<p style="padding: 0px; color: #444444; text-align: justify;">Blue Gem Coal is a high carbon, low ash, low fusion and low grind (very hard) coal that is found only in a small area along the border of Tennessee and Kentucky in the Cumberland Mountains. The coal seam, throughout the region, runs in thickness from 48-71 cm.</p>
<p style="padding: 0px; color: #444444; text-align: justify;">
<p style="padding: 0px; color: #444444; text-align: justify;">The Blue Gem Coal seam is one of three coal seams in the world that are best suited for production of silicon metals. The other two are found in West Virginia and Columbia, South America. Of the three, the Blue Gem Coal seam is the most sought after. For this reason, coal produced from this seam is not only consumed in the U.S., but also exported extensively to Canada, Norway, Iceland, India, France, South Africa and Egypt.</p>
<p style="padding: 0px; color: #444444; text-align: justify;">
<p style="padding: 0px; color: #444444; text-align: justify;">With the ever increasing demand for silicon metals and silicon products, mineable Blue Gem coal resources are becoming increasingly more valuable. Historically, Blue Gem coal can bring an FOB (Freight On Board) mine price that is as much as 100% higher than high quality steam coal and is typically the highest priced of any grade of coal produced in the U.S.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[Via <a href="http://blog.chinasecurities.com/2009/06/china%E2%80%99s-massive-healthcare-initiative-provides-vast-opportunities-for-investors/" target="_blank">ChinaSecurities.com</a> and My Colleague, Matty Hayden of HC International - whose China ideas often gets quoted in places like The Motley Fool]</p>
<p><img class="alignleft" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/International/china_healthcare_090406_mn.jpg" alt="" width="320" height="240" />Like the U.S., China&#8217;s healthcare costs have soared in recent years. Outpatient costs were 12 times higher in 2007 than in 1990 though incomes increased by only 5-7 times during the same period. Spending on healthcare amounted to about $185 billion or 5.67% of China&#8217;s GDP in 2007, yet healthcare investments have clearly not kept pace with China&#8217;s miraculous economic growth.</p>
<p>To address the imbalances, including wide problems in healthcare availability and quality between urban and rural areas, the Chinese government has initiated a <strong>$124 billion spending stimulus for 2009-2011</strong>. Some $52.2 billion will be allocated from the central government budget and is targeted principally at rural investments. This direct investment - rather than a more customary cost share with provincial governments - underscores the importance Beijing places on improving living standards and ensuring social stability in the countryside. The balance of $74.6 billion is aimed primarily at reducing urban hospital crowding and improving primary care, and will be provided by provincial and municipal sources.</p>
<p>The stimulus plan seeks to address five policy objectives:</p>
<p>1. <strong>Establish universal healthcare insurance.</strong> Target is to provide health insurance to 90 percent of the population by 2011, and to close the gap completely by 2020.</p>
<p>2. <strong>Build a basic medicine system</strong>. A new national Essential Drug List will be developed with widespread distribution, uniform prices and high reimbursement coverage.</p>
<p>3. <strong>Provide new medical institutions</strong>. Government investment will be directed toward the development of community health centers and local hospitals to ease the overcrowding in leading urban hospitals.</p>
<p>4. <strong>Bring equality in urban and rural areas</strong>. A clear focus on improving China&#8217;s underfunded public health system in rural areas, including epidemic management and disease prevention.</p>
<p>5. <strong>Reform Public hospitals</strong>. With public hospitals currently the dominant channel for healthcare services, pilot reforms will include changes to hospital administration and operation. After years of consideration, reforms also will include the separation of pharmacies from hospitals, and thus solve the over-prescription of drugs by money-losing hospital entities</p>
<p>Importantly<strong>, China&#8217;s healthcare consumers will be the chief beneficiaries</strong> of the reform program, but it is also clear that the reforms will pose opportunities for a wide range of healthcare products and service providers. <strong>Several industries and companies are poised to benefit</strong> directly from key reform measures.</p>
<p>The bulk of the reform program focuses on improving rural medical access and building out the public health infrastructure, so those firms that provide the infrastructure products and services for this expansion are in line to receive immediate and direct benefit from the reform program. These entities include:</p>
<p>ü      Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) producers</p>
<p>ü      Pharmaceutical distributors</p>
<p>ü      Basic medical equipment and device companies</p>
<p>ü      Generic chemical medicine manufacturers</p>
<p>ü      Vaccine manufacturers</p>
<p>ü      Diagnostic regent makers</p>
<p>Companies that will benefit from China&#8217;s massive investment in healthcare:</p>
<p><span id="more-2748"></span>§        <strong><a href="http://chinasecurities.com/ir/Tianyin" target="_blank">Tianyin Pharmaceutical Co., Inc. (TPI: NYSE Amex</a>)</strong> - a manufacturer and supplier of modernized traditional Chinese medicine (&#8221;TCM&#8221;) based in Chengdu, China.</p>
<p>§        <a href="http://chinasecurities.com/ir/AOBO" target="_blank"><strong>American Oriental Bioengineering, Inc. (AOB: NYSE)</strong></a> - a pharmaceutical and Traditional Chinese Medicine company which develops, manufactures and commercializes both plant-based pharmaceutical and plant-based nutraceutical products. AOB&#8217;s strategy has been to raise capital in U.S. markets and purchase SOEs at massive discounts. That strategy is paying off &#8212; overall sales grew more than 50% this past year.</p>
<p>§        <a href="http://chinasecurities.com/ir/Tongjitang" target="_blank"><strong>Tongjitang Chinese Medicines  (TCM: NYSE)</strong></a> - a leading specialty pharmaceutical company focusing on the development, manufacturing, marketing and selling of modernized traditional Chinese medicine in China.</p>
<p><a href="http://chinasecurities.com/ir/Tianyin"><img class="alignnone" src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/s3.chinasecurities.com/public/companies/logos/000/000/180/hub/TPI-%20HEADER.gif" alt="" width="268" height="35" /></a></p>
<p>The Company that we think will most likely outperform its peers and would like to highlight is Tianyin Pharmaceutical (TPI: NYSE Amex). <span style="color: #ff0000;">For full disclosure, TPI is currently a client of HC International, Inc. and AOB was a client during 2005-2007.</span></p>
<p>China&#8217;s government recently announced the plan to increase the overall investment in the Tradition Chinese Medicine (TCM) sector and implement favorable policies to accelerate the development of new TCM drugs will bode well for TPI.</p>
<p>TPI, whose fiscal year ends in two weeks on June 30, announced it expects to report revenues of $42 million and net income of $7.5 million in its 2009 fiscal year. Both numbers reflect an increase of 25% over year earlier results.</p>
<p>Tianyin also issued guidance for further growth of 40% in fiscal 2010. The company predicted revenues will hit $59 million and net income will total $10.5 million next year. Tianyin focuses on modernized forms of traditional Chinese medications and has an extensive and diverse product portfolio.</p>
<p>TPI has continued to capitalizing on China&#8217;s economy growth by developing an extensive portfolio and strong pipeline, enhancing sales and marketing efforts, and penetrating into new geographic markets and anticipates the new $124 billion health care reform plan will be a catalyst for further growth.</p>
<p>Tianyin has received SFDA approval for 10 new products during fiscal 2009, and revenues for its flagship product, Ginkgo Mihuan, increased significantly. The company attributed the rise in Ginkgo Mihuan revenues to successful tenders and an increase in the number of distributors for the product. Ginkgo Mihuan Oral Solution, which contributes about 31% of the company&#8217;s revenues, is a traditional Chinese medicine that is prescribed to treat sequelas of cerebral thrombosis, coronary heart diseases and myocardial infarction.</p>
<p>Tianyin said future growth will result from a combination of initiatives it has already begun, including:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>GMP certification for its new production facility that will increase its capacity for solid dosage by 300% and enable future growth for 20 of its products;</li>
<li>the new facility will initiate a wholesale component to its business that will distribute higher margin products for other pharmaceutical manufacturers through the company&#8217;s existing sales force and distribution channels;</li>
<li>the Healthcare Reform Act is expected to increase the demand for approximately 20 of the 22 drugs Tianyin currently has listed in the reimbursement catalog;</li>
<li>the company will expand its targeted marketing strategy, including multi-media and television advertising, to increase brand awareness and promote higher gross-profit-margin products, such as Ginkgo Mihuan Oral Liquid and Xuelian Cangcao;</li>
<li>Tianyin will expand collaboration with universities and research organizations to complement internal drug development efforts; and</li>
<li>The      company will continue to seek complementary acquisitions, mainly focused      on products or distribution.</li>
</ul>
<p>In October of 2008, the Company also authorized the repurchase of up to $3.0 million of its common stock through June 30, 2009. With $10.7 million in net cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2009 and positive cash flow from operation, they are adequately funded to meet all of the working capital and capital expenditure plans for 2009. In addition, in March 2009, <strong>Tianyin announced an annual cash dividend of $0.10 per common share</strong> that will be paid quarterly and this currently provides a 4% yield.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Financial Performance:</span></p>
<ul>
<li> Revenue CAGR from 2006 to 2008 of 58%</li>
<li> Y/Y revenue growth (2007 to 2008) of 64%</li>
<li> Net income CAGR from 2006 to 2008 of 49%</li>
<li> Y/Y net income growth (2007 to 2008) of 51%</li>
</ul>
<p>At $2.50 and assuming a 25 million diluted share count, the stock is trading at 6.2x estimated fiscal 2010 (ending June 30) earnings, with a PEG ratio of .16. Based on management guidance for revenues and net income this year of $59 million and $10.5 million, if the stock were to trade in line with industry averages of 12-15x earnings, the stock would be between $4.80 to $6.00 per share, providing over 100% upside from its current price.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Good morning to you all.  As you know, we made some significant changes to the site a few days ago.  These changes were implemented for three reasons:</span></p>
<ol>
<li><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">To give you faster access to the great content found on our blog, daily TV show and other content. Many of you limited your experience to specific company HUBS, so it was incumbent on us to give you one click access from those HUBS<br />
</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">To help you make your user experience even better by providing you with a list of usability tips.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">To provide you with additional ways of consuming our content.  For example, following us on Twitter, watching our videos on YouTube, etc.<br />
</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">To this end, please find enclosed answers to the all important question &#8230;<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">What Changes Were Made To The Site?</span></strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">All updates being pulled into Recent Updates Section on Hub&#8217;s Home Page</span></strong></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">The Recent Updates Box is the box that allows members to quickly view important changes to the HUB.  In the past, we only listed big items such as press releases.  However, given the fact so many members contribute so much more great content (photos, link library, changes to management, etc.) we&#8217;ve now upgraded the box to incorporate ANY update made to a HUB.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">What you don&#8217;t know is this is going to be a very important part of our mobile and Web 2.0 strategy over the next 2-3 months.  Specifically, the more active a group of investors within a HUB, the more information about their company that will be going out to the iPhone, Twitter and other channels that we are building.  More details will be released throughout the summer.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Conclusion - you now have even more ways to get the word out about your HUBS (client and free) and greater incentive to get active on AGORACOM.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2776 aligncenter" title="recent-updates" src="http://blog.agoracom.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/recent-updates-300x152.gif" alt="recent-updates" width="300" height="152" /></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">New Algorithm for Vice President, President and Hub Leaders</span></strong></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">With our New Upgrade. it is now a requirement that a member holds a minimum rating of 3.0 to attain the rank of Vice President, a minimum rating of 3.3 in order to attain the rank of President, and rating of at least 3.7 to attain the status of Hub Leader within AGORACOM.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">We had to implement these changes to make sure the highest ranking members achieved their status from more than just activity points. The rating of fellow members is the ultimate differentiator.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">The rank changes are mathematical and objective, and have been applied to AGORACOM retroactively, meaning some of you may have lost a rank. We look forward to <a href="http://agoracom.com/contact" target="_blank">hearing from you</a> if you have any questions about your rank.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">To this end, you can read the specifics about our rating and ranking system by visiting<span style="font-family: Arial; color: navy; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: navy; font-family: Arial;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: blue;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial;"><a title="http://agoracom.com/help-center/ratings-and-ranks" href="http://agoracom.com/help-center/ratings-and-ranks">http://agoracom.com/help-center/ratings-and-ranks.</a></span></span></span></p>

</span></p>
<ul>

</ul>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">AGORACOM Small-Cap TV is a daily, fast-paced, edgy report that we broadcast daily at or before the open of trading. AGORACOM Small-Cap TV strictly reports on the best small cap and micro cap news of the day in 3-5 minutes. Many of you weren&#8217;t aware of this again due to the fact that many members confined their activities to particular HUBS.  Now, you have one-click access to it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">You can watch AGORACOM TV right from <a href="http://www.agoracom.com/" target="_blank">our home page</a><a href="http://www.agoracom.com/" target="_blank"> </a>.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Once you use the site for a couple of hours, you’ll see the changes are actually quite small but important from a user experience point of view.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Message read and the Next Message Button</span></strong></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2553 aligncenter" title="rmc09_logo_500x49" src="http://blog.agoracom.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/rmc09_logo_500x49-300x29.gif" alt="rmc09_logo_500x49" width="300" height="29" /></span></p>
<p><span>AGORACOM was once again a proud sponsor of the <span><a href="http://www.dealflowmedia.com/conferences/rm_conference_09.cfm" target="_blank">Reverse Merger Conference</a></span> held this year at the <strong>Mandalay Bay Resort &amp; Casino in Las Vegas, June 11 &amp; 12</strong>. </span>I presented the Web / Online Investor Relations Speaker Workshop called, <strong><em>“</em></strong><span><strong>“Using Web 2.0 To Conduct Investor Relations and Gather Intelligence through Blogs, Twitter, iGoogle and RSS Feeds…But What Are They?”</strong></span><span><span> </span></span></p>
<p>The workshop was the initial step in teaching bankers, fund managers and public companies about the advantages of  incorporating social media into their intelligence gathering to cut through clutter, get the information they need and connect with the smartest people on the planet.</p>
<p>Despite the fact it was the last presentation before lunch, the room was pretty full and - more importantly - alive with audience participation.  In order to avoid the <em>&#8220;he&#8217;s the internet guy and I could never do what he does&#8221; </em>syndrome,  I brought industry stalwart and early Web 2.0 adopter David Feldman of the <a href="http://reversemergerblog.com" target="_blank">Reverse Merger &amp; SPAC Blog</a>.  David discussed his overwhelmingly positive blogging experience, which opened up the floor to some great questions from the audience.</p>
<p>I am happy to announce the presentation (audio and power point slides) has now been webcast for everyone to listen to and benefit from.  If you couldn&#8217;t make it to Las Vegas, or were at the Conference but need a refresher, here it is.  For your convenience, I have broken it down into 2 parts:</p>
<ul>
<li>My presentation</li>
<li>The Q&amp;A with David Feldman</li>
</ul>
<p>You can watch the presentations below and then ask any questions by posting them to the comments section.  I hope you find the presentation and Q&amp;A as valuable as the audience members at the Reverse Mergers Conference.</p>
<p>As promised, I will follow this up with 5-minute presentations on how to use Twitter, iGoogle and Blogging.  Look for them to begin in a few days.</p>
<p><strong>PART 1 - MY PRESENTATION</strong></p>

<p>We&#8217;re pleased to provide you with the June 2009 edition of the <strong>AGORACOM Client Intelligence Report</strong>.  For those of you who didn&#8217;t receive our last report or are new clients of AGORACOM, <strong>you can now find an archive of these reports on our blog <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://blog.agoracom.com/category/client-intelligence-report/">here</a></span>.  <span style="font-weight: normal;">For confidentiality reasons, all &#8220;Off The Blog&#8221; items mentioned in these reports are not mentioned in the archived reports.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0071BC;"><span style="font-family: mceinline;">WHY AN &#8220;INTELLIGENCE REPORT&#8221;</span></span></strong></p>
<p>For the benefit of our new clients, we call this an &#8220;Intelligence Report&#8221; because it provides you with important information, data and trends that impact your business - information that you normally don&#8217;t have time to find.  <strong>We often write about these in <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://blog.agoracom.com/">The AGORACOM Blog</a></span>, so we call these &#8220;On The Blog&#8221; Stories.</strong></p>
<p>In addition, <strong>this newsletter gives you a chance to look into our crystal ball and know what AGORACOM is working on months before the general public</strong>.  You can&#8217;t find these tidbits on our blog, so we call them <strong>&#8220;Off The Blog&#8221;</strong> and ask that you keep them confidential.  As you know, we move faster than any IR firm on the planet, so knowing what we&#8217;re doing in advance helps both of us coordinate our activities.  This is especially true for what we expect to be an extremely fast moving and exciting year.</p>
<p><strong>In short, greater market intelligence that puts you ahead of all of your peers.</strong></p>
<p>I can&#8217;t stress enough my recommendation that you review our monthly newsletter carefully for the purposes of incorporating some of our market intelligence into both your IR and business initiatives.</p>
<p>AGORACOM is now the largest small-cap IR firm <span style="text-decoration: underline;">and</span> site on the continent thanks to our effective use of web technology.  As such, following us will help you achieve your goals.</p>
<p><strong>OFF THE BLOG &#8230; Shhhhh</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">**For confidentiality reasons, the “Off The Blog” items are not mentioned in the blog posts as they are only available to AGORACOM clients**</span></strong></p>

<p>My Workshop called, <em>&#8220;Learn To Use Blogs, Twitter and RSS Feeds To Make You A Power Investor&#8221;</em> was well received. For years, CEOs and IROs have ignored social media as being irrelevant, but with tens of millions of investors using them CEOs now need to understand how social media can supercharge their market knowledge.</p>
