FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ritter and Equipped To Survive Foundation Successfully Defend Trademark

Doug Ritter and the Equipped To Survive Foundation, owners of the Equipped To Survive trademark, announced today that a settlement has been reached in their federal trademark infringement lawsuit against Christopher and Kristen McKiernan and Mayday Industries, Inc. The Defendants agreed not to use the name and mark EQUIPPED TO SURVIVE or any confusingly similar name or mark on their Web site and elsewhere and to transfer to the plaintiffs the domain names equippedtosurvive.com, equippedtosurvive.net and equippedtosurvive.org, as well as their pending trademark application.

Doug Ritter said, "This quick settlement affirms our trademark rights and allows us to get on with the Foundation's business without the distractions that further prosecution of this lawsuit would have involved. Potential infringers should take heed that we will defend our trademark rights vigorously."
