Mike The Pike Productions, Inc. Identifies Market Maker to Proceed with Form 15c2-11 to Resume Quotation; Operations Continue Uninterrupted Toward Revenues and Long-Term Growth

LOS ANGELES, CA, October 01, 2012 /FSC/ - Mike the Pike Productions, Inc. (MIKP - OTC), (www.mtpprods.com), an entertainment company with a focus in feature films, graphic novels and media holdings, announces today that its recent SEC suspension was lifted over the weekend.  Today, trading resumes on the Grey Market.

According to OTC Markets, trades in grey market stocks "are reported by broker-dealers to their Self Regulatory Organization (SRO) and the SRO distributes the trade data to market data vendors and financial websites so investors can track price and volume. Since grey market securities are not traded or quoted on an exchange or interdealer quotation system, investor's bids and offers are not collected in a central spot so market transparency is diminished and Best Execution of orders is difficult"
The company is working diligently to resume quotation by market makers in the OTC Markets and has initiated proceedings with a Market Maker toward submission for OTC interdealer quotation via filing of Form 15c2-11 with FINRA.  

The process, which the company feels will take anywhere from 3-6 months, is alongside ongoing operations which include at least two additional feature film announcements in 2012 for its subsidiary, Saint James Films (http://www.saintjamesfilms.com), as well as additional accrued revenues, attendance at the 2012 American Film Market, advancement on effects driven sci-fi thriller, White Space and progress in line with exciting developments on The Skin Trade, a franchise in the works, based on the award winning novella by George R.R. Martin, author behind HBO's Game of Thrones.

MIKP CEO, Mark B. Newbauer, states, "I respect the SEC's desire to clean up the non-reporting markets. Though I am not a fan of the criteria for selection or the fact that a portion of time and resources will be utilized on the Form 211 application process, we are thrilled to have met with a Market Maker that is confident, based on our discussions, that a reinstated quote seems more possible than not."

He continues, "Another option considered was to accept a share for share acquisition offer by a fully reporting company or to, ourselves, file audited financials with a registration to become fully reporting.  Though I feel the latter two options are viable, I feel the process we have chosen to set in motion is the path with least resistance in terms of overall benefit to the company and its shareholders; and has much potential for success. In the meantime, we'll continue producing in what remains the company's most successful year yet in terms of project-flow, revenues and strategic alliances that set the stage for exponential growth and industry position."

The company will continue to make announcements via press release along with content and comments via its corporate blog (http://blog.mtpprods.com)and is looking very much forward to a productive AFM (www.americanfilmmarket.com)
