ROBERT PALMER & ASSOCIATES ANNOUNCES ACQUISITION OF TOLBERT
ACCOUNTING SERVICES

FORT MILL, SC (June 22, 2007)—Robert Palmer & Associates, a full-service accounting, financial and small business consulting firm based in Fort Mill, has announced its acquisition of Tolbert Accounting Services effective July 1, 2007. With the acquisition, the firm will expand its small business client base in North Carolina and South Carolina.

“Robert Palmer & Associates is very honored to have acquired such a notable accounting firm as Tolbert Accounting Services,” commented Bobby Palmer, CPA and principal of Robert Palmer & Associates. “We are committed to providing all of our clients with superior accounting, financial service, small business consulting and
personal tax preparation support as well as one-on-one attention to ensure both their individual and business success.”

Bobby Palmer, CPA and principal of Robert Palmer & Associates, has an extensive consultation and financial background with more than 16 years of national and international accounting experience. He is a native of Fort Mill and a graduate of Winthrop University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting and is a licensed
CPA in both North Carolina and South Carolina.

Tolbert Accounting Services, established in 1994, sought out a reputable firm to handle client relations upon the retirement of Judith Tolbert, CPA, and owner of the firm. “It took many years to build my business and with my very loyal clients, I have been able to develop a solid, successful reputation in the accounting field,” commented Ms. Tolbert.

“It is for that very reason that I selected Robert Palmer & Associates not only to carry on that same legacy, but to also to provide my clients with the optimal customer service that they so rightly deserve.”

An invitation-only reception celebrating the merger will be held Saturday, June 30, 2007.
