LOST. The Cube. before handing over any information: stock market (8) www.perplexcity.com
Shortly afterwards, Reason found another clue crumpled into a ball and placed on top of the wall opposite Abbey Road Studios. Given that it had tape attached to it we suspect it should have been affixed to something but had been removed. This clue (identifying itself as '2/3') read:

At this point, growfybruce recognised that the text at the bottom of the notes formed a crossword clue. BoBzOmBiE found the third clue ('1/3') attached to the wall behind the monument (as seen from the webcam).
