On September 22, 2005, Mr. Martin E. Franklin, a member of the Board of Directors of FIND/SVP, Inc. (the “Registrant”), advised the Registrant that he will resign from the Board of Directors of the Registrant by the earlier of (i) March 21, 2006; and (ii) the date of the first meeting of the Board of Directors of the Registrant in 2006. Mr. Franklin serves on the Board of Directors of four publicly-traded companies and has decided to resign from the Board of Directors of the Registrant in order to comply with the requirements of Institutional Shareholder Services by limiting his membership to three Boards of Directors for publicly-traded companies. Mr. Franklin’s decision to resign from the Board of Directors of the Registrant was not related to any disagreement with the Registrant or its Board of Directors.

Mr. Franklin has advised the Registrant that his anticipated resignation is in no way reflective of any changed interest or confidence in, or long-term prospects of, the Registrant. Mr. Franklin has delivered a letter to the Board of Directors of the Registrant stating that he fully intends to maintain his significant equity position in the Registrant for the foreseeable future.
