That looks good.  The only thing I would improve upon is move "free of
charge" a little closer the front of the sentence and remove the idea that
they can either download or call, but not both:

Get a free-of-charge copy of our <a>Agency AB1127 Resource
Book</a>&mdash;please call us at (626) 334-6050 with any questions you may
have.

I am suggesting moving the free-of-charge closer to the front because it is
lost in the middle of your sentence.  In my example, the free-of-charge was
at the end, which makes it more noticable when scanning text.  In the middle
of the sentence, it tends to get lost.  This is, of course, assuming that
free-of-charge is an important part of this offer.
