I have known John Massanova since 1980. Over this time period and continuing on today, we have worked together and he has provided me with accounting and CPA services, analysis for management and acquisistions of many businesses I've been involved in and partner. During our association I've come to know his business acumen and develop a trust and admiration for his abilities, loyalty and friendship. John Massanova in my opininon has developed into the consummate business man and a fine human being.

While I was both Mayor and Councilman of the Borough of Runnemede from 1994 through 2005, John Massanova servered as Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, and Business Administrator for the Borough. In that period of time, John Massanova was responsible for the purchase of the New Municipal Building. In addition, he was responsible for bringing trash collection back into town at a major savings for the Borough. John Massanova was the person who when Mayor and Council needed something done, would be the person everyone in the Borough would call on. His dedication, intergerty and honesty in dealing with individuals, both in and out of the Borough, made my job both as Mayor and Councilman much easier, knowing John Massanova was just a phone call away. His out of box thinking saved the Borough over a million dollars, in the time period he served the Borough. I would recommend John for any municipality or business, who is looking for Chief Financial Officer, Business Administrator, or Controller.

Now that we have concluded the sale of Satellite Television of New York, I wanted to share with you my thoughts of our relationship over the past 20 years. As you recall, we first met when you were the certified public accountant for Community Cable TV in Blackwood, New Jersey. It was through that relationship that I developed a fondness for you based upon your professionalism, and your approach to practical business solutions. After Community Cable was sold, you took on an even more important role in my business world. When you took over management of STONYA, you quickly identified the issues that were confronting this cable TV business. I was amazed, and impressed with the way in which you approached solutions to each matter that confronted you. Obviously, the most challenging of all were your direct negotiations with the Board of Directors of Co-Op City, especially renewing our cable TV franchise with them. You then went on to take a 30 channel cable TV system, and turn it into I don't know how many channels you ended up with, but also introduced internet services to the subscribers. Now that the company has been acquired by Cablevision, our relationship continues on.
John, I just want you to know that, in my opinion, you are one of the best when it comes to identifying business issues and developing solutions. I wish you the very best as you continue your consulting, and CPA practices, and know that you will continue to be an outstanding successful professional.
I wish you and your family all the best in the future years.
John F. Scarpa, Unitell Corp.
