Carlsbad, CA, May 6, 2004: K2 Inc. (NYSE:KTO) announces an immediate and aggressive campaign enforcing the acquired intellectual property rights of Worr Game Products (WGP) including the premium paintball markers incorporating its proprietary Autococker® technology.
K2 Inc. intends to vigorously protect its investment as well as WGP's rights by taking action against imitators who violate those rights. K2 Inc. will promptly investigate all reports it receives of customer confusion, warranty representation, and illegal importation of substandard or knock-off products. K2 Inc. will take all necessary remedial action to swiftly terminate transgressions upon its intellectual property rights.
Bud Orr, President of WGP in explaining this action to custom product manufacturers and players alike stated, "Our intent is to protect our customers from being misled by non-genuine Autococker® product falsely presented in the market place. We are going to aggressively pursue all companies that we feel are manufacturing, marketing or distributing non-WGP premium markers as the Autococker® brand or look."
K2 Inc. looks forward to continuing WGP's long-standing relationships with responsible custom product manufacturers. Bud Orr reiterated, "Our company wants to make sure that players have the opportunity to experience genuine Autococker® brand markers including those from our approved custom manufacturers."
