Florida, August 2008
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
It is a genuine company’s responsibility to protect its interest, its employees and
its products. However, we also feel – as corporate citizens in a
straight and responsible
company – that we are also obligated to inform the public about truthful and
reportable occurrences. Regretfully, during ongoing investigations and legal
proceedings, going to the media and making statements can be
counterproductive and could harm unblamable and
casual bystanders.
This is in particularly true, when masses of people, who only hear one side
of a more likely fictitious story, organize themselves and begin to threaten
corporate entities and lives of innocent people. Since these sad things had
happened, it was deemed more appropriate to protect human lives rather than
going to the media and clarifying unjustified rumors and claims in order to
save and protect a company’s brand name
and its interests.

RESQ power drink company very much regrets Ms. Sarah Fisher’s
misfortune in May of 2008, however we assure everyone that RESQ’s
owners or employees have never met or even talked with
representatives of “Sarah Fisher Racing” (SFR) and have also never
entered into any contracts with SFR, neither verbally nor in
writing.
Contact between both parties, SFR and RESQ, was only
established
long
after June 2008 during
follow-up investigations,
when relevant explanatory information about the
April/May events were
exchanged.

In April of 2008, RESQ's
at that time brokerage respresentative
was
negotiating
about
entering
into a
brand licensing agreement with
“Gravity Motorsports”, a
subsidiary enterprise
of
"Gravity Entertainment Inc."
All
contractual negotiations between
"Gravity Entertainment"
and RESQ
were
conducted by a third-party legal entity
(namely: TGFJ LLC, a New Jersey company)
on
behalf of
RESQ and without the effective involvement of RESQ's management.
However, a
contract never went into effect or materialized
for below mentioned reasons.
At no time during the negotiation process
with
representatives of
“Gravity Motorsports”
(solely through our brokerage company: TGFJ
LLC), did these talks ever include that RESQ would be
responsible for any funding processes or fees for a
motorsports
race team.
Much to our surprise did we have to learn through the media that our logo
and our copyrighted blue wave designs had already been put on race cars as
well as on SFR’s official racing apparel without ever having a signed
contract with us. We also had to find out that RESQ racing die-cast-models
have been produced and have been offered for sale without our permission!
The
licensing agreement between
RESQ and
"Gravity Motorsports"
was
neither
completed nor signed,
since RESQ's management was skeptical
about the authenticity of documents provided by "Gravity Entertainment Inc."
and their affiliated company "Sails Capital Management Sàrl"
(a Luxembourg registered entity).
Hence, both companies, "Gravity Entertainment Inc." (et al.) and "Sails
Capital Management Sàrl" failed RESQ's
due diligence investigations and negotiations
with these companies were ended. All above mentioned companies, including
the brokerage company TGFJ, LLC were served with cease
and desist orders.
With the unfortunate exception of rather bad unjustified publicity and
threats against people, RESQ has not gained anything and also did not earn
any money whatsoever. Again, if
there was a contract
between entities
in place, it could have only been an agreement between “Sarah Fisher Racing”
and “Gravity Motorsports”
–
definitely
not
with RESQ.
Gravity Entertainment
Inc., Gravity
Motorsports LLC, Gravity Marketing LLC or other business entities operating
under the “Gravity” brand and its
representatives as well as TGFJ LLC do neither own RESQ nor have any
rights to the trademark RESQ and do not have any authorization to represent
us and/or our products. We do not have any
third-party-representations or third-party-brokerage for our products.
If you have doubts about somebody claiming to represent RESQ, please contact
our legal department by email:
office.01@.legal..RESQ.info
and provide us with helpful information. We are seeking information
about unauthorized reproductions of our products’ designs and brand name: in
particular racing products and merchandise containing our logo image without
permission.
RESQ was founded
by members of public safety services,
is an all natural
company which represents a strong community spirit and refuses to
participate in any disparaging behavior. Once again, we assure everyone
that RESQ lives up to a high moral standard and as a company,
we will
continue to provide great products which are good for the community.
TEAM RESQ USA
