SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATION OF ROBERT G. KAVANAUGH
2
3
State of California
)
)
)
4
County of Orange
5
ROBERT G. KAVANAUGH, being first duly sworn on oath, deposes and says:
SS:
6
1. I am the President of Plaintiffs Agrigenic Food Corporation (hereinafter “Agrigenic”
7
8
9
10
11
and its related-party service corporation, Arise Direct Marketing, Inc. (hereinafter
“Arise”) (hereinafter collectively “Plaintiffs”) and I have personal knowledge to the
facts and information declared to herein:
2. I am a resident of the Huntington Beach, California. I have personally incurred actual
12
damages, which are separate and distinct from the damages experienced by my
13
14
15
businesses as a direct result of the defendants conduct inflicted against me and my
family here in the Central District of California.
16
Defendants Have Substantial Contact with California
17
18
19
3. This lawsuit is a result of the defendant’s unlawful conduct while physically present
here in the Central District of California. I have filed this lawsuit in the US District
20
Court for the Central District of California because the named defendant’s
21
22
23
24
25
intentionally formulated their scheme to damage my property, as well as my wholly
owned corporation’s property located in the Central District of California.
4. Each of the named individual defendants is well known to me.
I worked with
William J. Fahey at Biotec Foods in Honolulu, Hawaii, from 1988 through 1991.
26
During that same time period, I shared a rented apartment with defendant Kevin J.
27
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
1
1
Thomas, who also worked for defendant Fahey at Biotec Foods-Hawaii, Ltd. And,
2
during that time period, to a lessor extent, I personally knew both Mary Jean Fahey
3
and Joshua Fahey.
4
5
This Case is Related to Two Previous Lawsuits Filed Here by the Faheys
6
7
5. The Fahey defendants first initiated their complaint against the plaintiffs here in
8
California. Having lost their bid in this Court, the Faheys, with the assistance from
9
Defendant Kevin J. Thomas, continue to counterfeit the plaintiff’s marks. Each of the
10
individual defendants named herein has had extensive contacts with the State of
11
California arising out of the conduct directed against my business and property
12
located here in the Central District of California.
13
14
The Defendant’s Conduct Has Continued Unabated
15
16
17
18
19
6. Furthermore, nearly every day we are faced with another act by at least one of the
defendants which is designed to interfere with our ability to continue as a going
concern. Just last week, we were notified by Solgar Vitamins and Herbs, one of our
last remaining bulk customers, that William or Joshua Fahey had contacted them, and
20
21
using information which could only have been available if they had our stolen
22
computers, attempt to persuade Solgar’s buyer, Ms. Maria Madrid, to “correct” the
23
company’s computer database to reflect the “new” address. Ms. Madrid was told that
24
Biotec Foods was out of business and is now known as The Enzyme Company
25
located in Sarasota Florida. See Exhibit 20.)
26
27
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
2
1
Reasonableness of Hailing the Non-Resident Defendants for Trial in California
2
3
7. William J. Fahey and Joshua Fahey should have reasonably calculated that they
4
would be hailed in to this Court when they planned and implemented a break-in of
5
our offices and my home on June 2, 2003.
6
8. The effects of the Kevin Thomas and William J Fahey’s agreement to steal away our
7
8
9
10
11
12
tradenames and trademarks has been felt here, and the resulting damage to my
businesses has caused a permanent reduction in jobs in the Central District of
California, through layoffs.
9. William J. Fahey, Joshua Fahey, and Kevin J. Thomas irreparably damaged our
business relationships through their defamatory and untruthful telephone calls, and
13
14
their libelous distribution of emails and faxes, directed at our customers nationwide.
15
The damage to my professional reputation and to my businesses’ profitability
16
occurred in the Central District of California.
17
18
19
The September 29, 2003 Telephone Hijacking
10. On September 29th, 2003 at 4:41pm PST, Verizon Communications, Plaintiff’s
20
telephone carrier, was contacted and convinced to divert all plaintiffs’ incoming
21
22
telephone calls to a toll-free number 888-468-7999, which was under Fahey’s
23
exclusive control and rang into his Sarasota, FL residence. During that same time
24
period the “hijacked” telephone number was dialed from inside Vitarich Laboratories,
25
Inc., over 15 times in a 35 minute period to confirm transfer. During that time period,
26
27
Biotec’s customer Cynthia Erickson called, but was connected to Fahey’s answering
machine in Sarasota. Fahey sold Cynthia Erickson counterfeit Biotec Cell Guard
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
3
1
product. This evidence directly establishes the agreement between Kevin J. Thomas
2
and William James Fahey to damage Plaintiff’s businesses and property.
3
4
Habitual Use of Shell and Dummy Corporations
5
6
11. The First Circuit Court for the State of Hawaii conveyed these intangible assets to
7
Agrigenic Food Corporation in August 1997, and this Court has already enjoined
8
Biotec Food Corporation and Pacific Botanicals Corporation, which were just two of
9
perhaps a dozen active and suspended corporations founded in California, Hawaii and
10
Florida, and which had virtually no transactions, file no tax returns, and conduct
11
virtually no business, and with the same or similar sounding names, and which
12
therefore only exist to confuse due process, which were set up by William J. Fahey,
13
14
Mary Jean Fahey, Joshua Fahey and other members of their immediate family. The
15
defendants have habitually conducted their affairs through such shell corporations for
16
the purposes of defrauding creditors and or confusing due process.
17
Counterfeiting, False Designation of Origin
18
19
12. This Court has already enjoined anyone acting in active concert or participation with
20
21
Biotec Food Corporation and Pacific Botanicals Corporation, (including William J.
22
Fahey, Mary Jean Fahey, and Joshua Fahey, and Kevin J. Thomas) from using any of
23
the listed, disputed trademarks or tradenames. A related Order to Show Cause Why
24
William J. Fahey Should Not be Held in Contempt for Continuing to Violate the
25
November 17th, 1999, Default Order and Judgement, (hereinafter ‘OSC’) is now
26
before this Court.
27
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
4
1
Defendant William J. Fahey Was Served With a Summons and Complaint While in The
2
Central District of California
3
4
5
13. William J. Fahey was served with a summons and complaint while he was physically
present here in the Central District of California.
6
7
Defendant Mary Jean Fahey’s Connection to the Conspiracy and California.
8
14. Mary Jean Fahey’s council of record in the related OSC proceeding, Robert L. Risley,
9
10
11
12
13
was served with the summons and complaint in the Central District of California on
behalf of Mary Jean Fahey.
15. Mary Jean Feak Fahey (hereinafter “Jean Fahey”) has repeatedly alleged to the Court
that she has no connection with her (former) husband’s business activities.
14
Furthermore, she claims that she is divorced from William J. Fahey, and only has
15
16
incidental contact with him, unrelated to this dispute.
However, the facts do not
17
support her statements. Until February 2005, Jean Fahey was the resident of record,
18
and lived at 4900 Sun Circle, Sarasota, Florida. William J. Fahey has been repeatedly
19
contacted by process servers attempting to serve Jean Fahey at the 4900 Sun Circle,
20
21
Sarasota, Florida address. Mary Jean Fahey had also been directly, personally served
with papers at that address.
22
23
16. In addition, according to a report from a Sarasota, Florida Police Detective who was
24
granted access to that residence on June 2, 2003, “Dr.” William J. Fahey’s dietary
25
supplement business was obviously being conducted from inside that house. All of
26
27
the Fahey’s business activities, telephones, and 800 number services were conducted
from that address. According to private detectives / process servers, after February
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
5
1
2005, William J. Fahey and Mary Jean Fahey appear to have moved to a residence
2
nearby located at 3825 INDIAN BEACH PLACE, SARASOTA FL 34234. Mary
3
Jean Fahey is also listed as an officer on corporate documents for “The Enzyme
4
Company” located at that address. Backup service of process conducted just this
5
6
week (April 24th, 2005) has established that Mary Jean Fahey resides at 3825 Indian
7
Beach Place, and William J. Fahey was also at that address when the process server
8
conducted her (backup) service of the summons and complaint in this matter.
9
17. Mary Jean Fahey contacted me by telephone sometime in late 2002, and, inter alia,
10
informed me that she intended to help her (former) husband and son launch and
11
12
develop websites and sell dietary supplement products bearing Agrigenic’s Biotec
13
Foods, Biomed Foods, and Biovet International trademarks. I told her that if she did
14
that, I would do sue her in Federal Court in California. I informed her of the existing
15
Federal Injunction. I informed her of the existing Hawaii Court’s Order, even though
16
I knew she was aware of both. Her only response was that “no judge anywhere
17
would ever find us guilty.” I told her she was wrong. The law was clear, and if she
18
and her family moved forward with their plan to infringe upon our trademarks, that I
19
20
would certainly be seeing them in a California Federal Court. Given that Mary Jean
21
Fahey’s name appears on the WHOIS registry of several of the infringing domain
22
names, as the domain name owner, upon information and belief, Mary Jean Fahey is a
23
willful and active member of the defendant’s agreement to violate our trademarks.
24
25
26
27
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix

1
Kevin J. Thomas’s Voluntary Injection into the Related Dispute
2
3
18. Kevin J. Thomas contacted me in April 2003, and first claimed to be a disinterested
4
third-party whose only desire was to help resolve a dispute between me and William
5
J. Fahey. Later in the conversation Thomas simply demanded $25,000 or the rights to
6
one of our most valuable trademarks.
7
Finally, Thomas filed a materially false
affidavit in this Court regarding the content of that telephone conversation. Thomas
8
also revealed in that affidavit that he has been supplying the Faheys with dietary
9
10
supplement bottles and supplies. After Plaintiffs filed this lawsuit and included
11
Thomas as a defendant, Thomas again contacted me by telephone, and, in spite of
12
witness including his own attorney being present, said that he intended to continue
13
funding the Fahey’s (counterfeiting enterprise) until we were forced us out of
14
business.
15
16
This Venue Is the Most Convenient to Third-Party Witnesses
17
18
19. At least ten of the witnesses in the related OSC proceeding will offer substantially the
19
same testimony relevant to this proceeding. Therefore, the third-party witnesses are
20
the same or substantially the same people who will appear in this action. Requiring
21
them to appear in both the Central District of California and the Middle District of
22
Florida to offer substantially the same testimony is not convenient to any of these
23
third-party witnesses.
24
25
20. The witnesses cited in defendant Kevin J. Thomas’s Supplemental Declaration are
26
nearly all employees, former employees or contractors of defendant Kevin J.
27
Thomas’s business enterprises.
None of the proposed testimony relating to
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
7
1
allegations that Thomas’s professional or personal reputation has suffered by being
2
named in this dispute, is relevant to the causes of action in this case. Furthermore,
3
the common nucleolus of operative facts relevant to this dispute are (1) the break-in
4
of Arise Direct Marketing, Inc.’s Huntington Beach, California offices in Huntington
5
6
Beach, California, and the theft and misappropriation of plaintiff’s trade secrets, (2)
7
Thomas’s [then directing defendant Vitarich Laboratories’ (Delaware) predecessor-
8
in-interest Vitarich Laboratories, Inc (Florida)]
9
plaintiff’s contracts with third-parties (e.g. Cyanotech and Nutrex) to hire Plaintiff’s
10
laid-off employees (who are still in the Central District of California) to work for
11
subsequent attempt to acquire
Vitarich Laboratories, Inc.’s or William J. Fahey selling counterfeit Biotec Foods,
12
Biomed Foods, and Biovet International products with Fahey.
Furthermore, the
13
14
moving defendants have asked to transfer this case to the Middle District of Florida,
15
yet nearly all of their proposed witnesses are residents of the Southern District of
16
Florida. Even if the defendant’s witnesses testimony were relevant, their witnesses
17
would not experience a much greater inconvenience by flying to Los Angeles,
18
19
California and staying in a hotel versus driving or flying half the distance of the state
of Florida to the Middle District of Florida and staying in a hotel.
20
21
Ease of Access and Availability of Evidence
22
23
21. Finally, Thomas’s supplemental declaration infers that the bulk of the inconvenience
24
would be as a result of transferring an extensive collection of documents to the
25
Central District of California. Although no final discovery plan has been prepared, I
26
do not expect that we would require the defendants to transport all of the proposed
27
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
8
1
documents. Should we elect to expend a great deal of time evaluating that evidence, I
2
am certain that we would contract with an appropriate third-party forensic accountant
3
to evaluate the documents and prepare a report with supporting documents for the
4
Court.
5
6
22. In addition, according to Vicki Visette, an employee of the Newport Beach,
7
California based NNFA cGMP Auditing Group, who I contacted on April 28th, 2005,
8
the NNFA maintains an extensive collection of the defendants’ (Vitarich
9
Laboratories, Inc., and Vitarich Farms) manufacturing records here in the Central
10
District of California in order to support their recent audit of the internal
11
12
manufacturing controls and related procedures related to cGMP Certification.
13
Although no final discovery plan has been prepared, we would be as likely to inspect
14
those work papers for evidence of the defendants’ conspiracy as we would be to
15
inspect banking and financial records located in the Southern District of Florida.
16
17
Substantial Number of Witnesses are Located in the Central District of California
18
23. In addition, we will be calling a substantial numbers of current and former employees
19
20
of Arise Direct Marketing, Inc., and Agrigenic Food Corporation. We will be calling
21
witnesses with firsthand knowledge of the contumacious and tortuous counterfeiting
22
activity, negligent and tortuous interferences with contractual relations, false
23
designation of origin and other unlawful conduct attributed to the defendants while in
24
25
the Central District of California. These additional witnesses are residents of the
Central District of California.
These witnesses include Mia Fredriksen, Denise
26
27
Holewinski, Vicki Spani, Robert Kavanaugh, Philip R. Kavanaugh, M.D., Marianne
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
9
1
Lotfy, Shannon Street, John Wheatly, Diana Chong, Jackson Chong, Joanne Chong,
2
Detective Hamada, Huntington Beach Police, employees of Verizon Communications
3
and unnamed third-party defendant, Robert L. Kendall. All of these key witnesses are
4
residents of the Central District of California.
(See complete list of Plaintiff’s
5
6
witnesses and expected testimony at WITNESS LIST TABLE below.)
7
Relative Means
8
9
24. If required to prosecute this matter in Middle District of Florida, I would have to
10
close my businesses during the trial. If I closed my businesses during the trial, I
11
would not be able to afford to pay an attorney to represent the corporation. Since
12
corporations must be represented by a licensed attorney, I would not be able to
13
14
prosecute this matter in the Middle District of Florida.
15
25. Each of the named individual defendants is well aware of this financial dichotomy
16
and has actively engaged in conduct designed explicitly to exacerbate my financial
17
position.
Indeed, defendant Kevin Thomas, in the presence of his own Florida
18
attorney, even called me at my offices in Huntington Beach, California in early
19
20
January 2005, and, in spite of the fact that I had witnesses listening in on the call,
21
openly declared to me that his intended to continued funding the Fahey Defendant’s
22
unlawful trademark infringements as a means to prevent a final adjudication in this
23
matter. Furthermore, Thomas declared that he had 12 million dollars, and would use
24
all of it to prevent us from obtaining a final judgement against him.
25
26
27
26. While I do not have any direct personal knowledge of the Fahey defendant’s financial
position, I am personally aware that they have been unfairly enriched by their actions
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
10
1
related to the allegations in this dispute. The money that they hold by and through
2
their unlawful and unfair conduct rightfully belongs to the plaintiffs. In addition,
3
upon information and belief, the Fahey’s unlawful scheme and enterprise is being
4
financially supplemented by defendant Kevin J. Thomas, and/or the businesses which
5
6
7
he directly controls. Upon information and belief, William J. Fahey’s legal defense is
being paid for by Vitarich Laboratories, Inc. and Kevin J. Thomas.
8
Corporate Defendant’s Means Relative to Corporate Plaintiff’s Means
9
10
11
27. Argan Inc., the parent company to Vitarich Laboratories, Inc. just released their
Consolidated Financial Statements for Fiscal Year Ending January 31, 2005. (See
12
SEC 10K FYE 01/31/2005 at Exhibit 24.) According to those publicly available
13
14
records, Vitarich Laboratories, Inc., alone has experienced an increase in revenues of
15
nearly $4 million over the prior year and their gross revenue from sales of dietary
16
supplement products is approximately $20 million dollars annually.
17
28. As a direct and proximate cause of the systematic and continuous business
18
interferences referenced herein, Agrigenic Food Corporation and Arise Direct
19
20
Marketing, Inc’s combined revenues (excluding inter-company transactions) have
21
decreased by nearly $1 million over that same period and are less than $475,000, for
22
the fiscal year ending 12/31/2005. I have absorbed and recorded a loss of nearly
23
$65,000.00 on my personal tax return as a result of the losses incurred by Agrigenic
24
25
Food Corporation (a Sub-Chapter S Corporation). The costs of litigation have been
substantial and account for the single largest increase in expenses for Agrigenic Food
26
27
Corporation. I have been forced to expose myself financially, and have increased my
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
11
1
personal debt through borrowing. I have been forced to liquidate personal assets,
2
including a personal stock portfolio, just so that I could inject the requisite capital into
3
these businesses and prosecute this dispute and the related OSC for contempt. An
4
increase in personal indebtedness is a requisite for providing working capital to a
5
6
small business when it is necessary to increase borrowing for purposes of continuing
7
as a going concern. Employees, officers and directors of public corporations enjoy
8
access to capital which does not expose them to personal liability.
9
29. I have no other personal, undisclosed, assets that would provide with me working capital
10
apart from my interest in these businesses, and the Court can reasonably conclude that
11
12
unless the defendant’s conduct is effectively curtailed, and the defendant’s attorney’s
13
are held to strict compliance with the FRCP and the local rules, and their non-
14
compliance strictly sanctioned; and this proceeding is allowed to proceed here in the
15
Central District of California, in spite of at least two prior orders from the Hawaii
16
State Court and this Federal Court, and in spite of the overwhelming evidence filed in
17
support of the plaintiffs’ allegations in this complaint, the plaintiffs will not have the
18
resources necessary to sustain the defendant’s unlawful acts and will not then have
19
20
their day in Court. That has been the defendant’s plan since they initiated their latest
21
scheme beginning at least two years ago, and remains the final goal of the conspiracy
22
alleged by the plaintiffs to exist by and between the named defendants herein.
23
24
25
Accommodations, Transportation and Logistics Support Venue Here
30. The majority of the witnesses who are expected to be called in this proceeding are
26
27
either already residents of the Central District of California, or the logistics of
28
Supplemental Declaration of Robert G. Kavanaugh with Appendix
12
1
transporting and accommodating the other relevant, non-resident, third-party
2
witnesses, supports consolidating the existing discovery matters with the related OSC
3
discovery proceedings and testimony at least in part, and continuing forward with this
4
matter here in the Central District of California.
5
6
7
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United
States that the foregoing is true and correct and that the declaration
is executed this 1st of May, 2005.

On June 2, 2003, defendant Joshua Fahey broke into Arise Direct Marketing,
Inc’s Huntington Beach, California offices and removed all of our computers,
and which included all of Agrigenic Food Corporation’s trade secrets, customer
lists and details of all historical customer transactions. I personally witnessed
Joshua Fahey preparing to commit a related burglary at my residence that same
morning. Joshua provided additional evidence as to his identity when—being
fearful that his capture by police was eminent—Joshua Fahey telephoned Arise
Direct Marketing, Inc.’s offices and left a short, albeit menacing message:
According to Denise Holewinski, who overheard the call, a voice she later
identified to be that of Joshua Fahey’s, said “Tell Bob that if the police catch us,
we are going to f**k him up.”. Telephone records indicate that the source of the
call was a number registered to Joshua Fahey in Sarasota, Florida. Nearly all of
Agrigenic Food Corporation’s Federal and State Tax Returns and files were
taken, facilitating a number of defendant’s identity theft related crimes. (See
also 3, 4, 6, and 20.)
Kevin J. Thomas filed a false affidavit with this Court in order , he was the Chief
Executive Officer of Vitarich Laboratories, Inc., a Florida Corporation. Between
1987 and 1991, Thomas had been an employee of Biotec Foods-Hawaii, Ltd.
Thomas is and was aware of the dispute between the Plaintiffs and the Fahey
defendants, and as he admits in his affidavit, had constructive knowledge that the
assets of Biotec Foods-Hawaii, Ltd., were now owned and controlled by
Plaintiffs. Furthermore, Thomas carefully admits to supplying “empty plastic
bottles, caps, and accessories” to defendant Fahey. While Thomas carefully
avoids stating that he or Vitarich Laboratories manufactures Fahey’s counterfeit
products, his attempt to limit his (and Vitarich Labs) involvement in Fahey’s
unlawful conspiracy seems obviously dubious given that Thomas and Vitarich
Laboratories, Inc., are a dietary supplement manufacturing firm. Furthermore,
Thomas admits to knowingly supplying Fahey’s “company, Biotec Foods of
Florida (BFF)” even after Thomas admitted that he was a former employee of,
and had knowledge of Plaintiff’s ownership of Biotec Foods-Hawaii, Ltd., when
he states, “I called Mr. Kavanaugh at the Hawaiian corporation (Biotec Foods
Hawaii, Ltd.), now located in southern California. . . .”
On or about December 2003, Diana Chong, Agrigenic’s customer was contacted
by Joshua Fahey on her personal cell phone number which could only have been
available to Joshua from the data on the Plaintiff’s stolen computers. The caller
said “Biotec Foods” had offices in Florida as well, and that the Florida office

could provide BestQ with products at roughly half the price they were currently
paying. Based on the statements the Chong nearly sent money to Florida, but
fortunately saw Plaintiffs at the EXPO West in time to learn the truth.

On September 29th, 2003 at 4:41pm PST, Verizon Communications, Plaintiff’s
telephone carrier, was contacted and convinced to divert all plaintiffs’ incoming
telephone calls to a toll-free number 888-468-7999, which was under Fahey’s
exclusive control and rang into his Sarasota, FL residence. During that same
time period the “hijacked” telephone number was dialed from inside Vitarich
Laboratories, Inc., over 15 times in a 35 minute period to confirm transfer.
During that time period, AFC customer Cynthia Erickson called AFC, but was
connected to Fahey’s answering machine in Sarasota. Within days Fahey
returned the call to Cynthia Erickson confirming control over the toll free
number. (Vitarich calls during this period of time + Fahey’s procurement of
AFC’s Account + Cynthia Erickson’s Affidavit = CONFIRMATION OF
FAHEY AND THOMAS’S / VITARICH LABS’ COLLUSION.

Exh Id. 8 cGMP News at
Up until in or around the break-in of our offices in June 2003. Nutricology,
Orange, Ca, was a customer of AFC via Horizon Labs. Vitarich Laboratories,
Inc. began making PROGREENS almost immediately after the break-in.
Inference: Fahey’s provided with key trade secrets by the Fahey defendants, and
Vitarich Labs, Inc., and Thomas capitalized on that secret information to usurp
Plaintiff’s “key bulk raw material” accounts shortly after the break-in on June 2,
2003. In support of the allegations, Plaintiffs direct the Court’s attention to the
fact that Plaintiffs had manufactured PROGREENS for Nutricology, since
around 1997.
Up until in or around the break-in of our offices in June 2003, Vibrant Health
used AFC ingredients to make Green Vibrance, since about 1997. Vibrant
Health was contacted and sent a deluged of negative emails and faxes from the
Faheys, After the break-in, Vitarich Laboratories, Inc approached Vibrant Health
and is now manufacturing the Green Vibrance Product. (Inference: Fahey’s
shared Plaintiff’s secret customer data with Kevin Thomas and Vitarich Labs.)
On or about September 12, 2003, soon after serving the Fahey defendants with
this Court’s November 17th, 1999 Default Order and Judgement, Plaintiffs were
contacted by Honolulu Attorney, George W. Ashford. (hereinafter “Buck
Ashford”) Buck Ashford contacted Plaintiffs to inform us that Kevin J. Thomas
had contacted his offices and the offices of his former client Cyanotech
Corporation and Nutrex. According to Mr. Ashford, Thomas had contacted him
to determine whether he could purchase any outstanding indebtedness held by
Ashford against Plaintiffs. Thomas informed Ashford that he wished to purchase
or force Agrigenic Food Corporation to sell their trademarks and tradenames to
Thomas and Vitarich Labs, Inc.
Vitarich Labs maintains their active membership in the quasi-regulatory
compliance program which, inter alia, certifies compliance with Good
Manufacturing Practices. (hereinafter ‘cGMP’). The program is administered by
the National Natural Foods Association, (hereinafter ‘NNFA’) and Vitarich Labs
is an active member. The NNFA is located in Newport Beach, California. Our
offices contacted NNFA cGMP program and spoke with Vicki Visette, who
provides regulatory functions, audit and keeps all work papers and Vitarich

supporting assertion that

provides direct shipments in to the Central District of California through their
Idaho based distribution center. Oxyfresh directly promotes the defendant’s
dietary supplement products using their own labels. They regularly advertise the
defendant’s dietary supplement products in California, and provide channels
designed to offer regular advice to customers located in California. In fact,
OXYFRESH holds seminars promoting the defendant’s products throughout the
Central District of California.
Vitarich Laboratories, Inc., distribute their products and services through
multilevel marketing organizations including but not limited to Trivita Way
Corporation – According to the Argan, Inc. SEC 10K filing, TriVita Way is
Vitarich Laboratories, Inc.’s single largest customer, and nearly $5 million
dollars of the defendant’s products were distributed through this firm’s
infomercials and websites including in the Central District of California.
Additional evidence of this firms presence in California include a Employment
Development Department tax lien, and an infomercial which may downloaded
from the trivita.com website, which was made in Los Angeles, Ca., and includes
“interviews” of consumers in the Central District of California. The trivita.com
website sells directly to consumers in California.
Defendant Kevin J. Thomas attends the Natural Products Expo West (herein after
‘Expo West’) held annually at the Anaheim Convention Center located within the
Central District of California. Contrary to Thomas’s self-serving claim to be
“merely a guest of other suppliers, plaintiffs have attached affidavits in support
of plaintiffs assertion that Kevin J. Thomas actively sells and promotes Vitarich

Vitarich Laboratories, Inc., distribute their products and services through a joint

Vitarich Labs has a substantial and continuance Presence in California through
Vitamark/Vitacorp International. including documents filed in an unrelated
trademark infringement dispute in the Northern District of California; establish
that Vitacorp International did not challenge or object to personal jurisdiction in
California. (See JOINT CASE MANAGEMENT STATEMENT, COMPLAINT,
and NOTICE OF INTERESTED PARTIES at supplemental Exhibits A, B, C)
See In RE: Matthias Rath vs. Vitacorp International filed in NDCA District Court
in November 2004.) The same facts establish that Vitacorp International dba
Vitamark International is conducting a substantial amount of business
specifically directed at the Central District of California. In the Notice of
Interested Parties, the following four persons appear to hold a significant
controlling interest in Vitacorp International: The three original founding
members of Nutrition for Life, Inc. Mr. David Bertrand, Mr. Tom Schreiter (“Big
Al”) and Jana Mitcham, with Vitarich Laboratories, Inc.’s founder, defendant Mr.
Kevin J. Thomas. (Exhibit A, pg. 2 ln 10.) Copious examples of LIMU PLUS
marketing materials and distributor websites establish that Vitarich Farms and
Vitarich Labs openly acknowledge that the stream-of-distribution for their
popular dietary supplement products is through Vitamark International (a.k.a.
Vitacorp International.) The marketing materials actively promote the farm-tomarket aspects of the products and the related entities. (E.g. from Vitarich Farms
to Vitarich Labs to Vitamark International to distribution throughout California
including in the Central District of California.) Vitarich Farms grows products
almost exclusively for Vitarich Labs (See Exhibit __), which distributes products
primarily through Vitacorp International. (Hereinafter Vitacorp International and
Vitamark International are used interchangeably.) (See Paragraph 15) Vitacorp
International contracts with Vision Publishing to target advertising to the Central
District of California. Four Exhibits:

Nutrition for Life, LLC, (hereinafter “NFL”) is a recently bankrupted distribution
company with extensive ties to the Central District of California as well as
extensive ties to both Kevin J. Thomas, personally, and as Chief Executive
Officer of defendant Vitarich Laboratories, Inc. as well as the his shareholderpartners who founded the newly formed Vitacorp International. (See paragraph
15.) For the purposes of determining personal jurisdiction, the Court should
consider both the Thomas Enterprises’ history of employing this similar pattern
of racketeering activity against NFL, LLC in its formation of Vitacorp
International. In addition, the Court should use the extensive evidence of

Furthermore, Plaintiffs assert that Thomas used his physical presence at the Expo
West Tradeshow to contact the plaintiffs’ personnel manning plaintiff’s
tradeshow booth and asked specific questions about the volume of business being
conducted by plaintiffs and gathered other intelligence. In addition, he offered
VitaRX, an Arginine based dietary supplements manufactured by defendant
Vitarich Labs for sale to AFC.

transactions by NFL, LLC, as detailed by the trustee’s reports attached hereto as
Exhibit Z as the substantially the same substantial and continuous transactions as
used by the illegitimate surviving entity, Vitacorp International. In reviewing the
trustee’s documents, the most salient issues establishing personal jurisdiction in
this Court are: (1) the material, outstanding indebtedness owed to the California
Board of Equalization, suggesting that the substantial transactions engaged in by
NFL, LLC, were directed to California residents, including the Central District of
California. (2) that the trustee has listed Vitarich Labs (and Kevin J. Thomas ) as
a major creditor, referring to Vitarich Labs as the primary supplier (See Exhibit Z
(last page))
As evidenced by the bankruptcy trustee’s extensive financial
disclosures and schedules filed in the US Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Texas. The trustee’s schedules establish that NFL, LLC was a primary
conduit by which Vitarich Labs distributed its dietary supplement products to
California residents and including in the Central District of California. Finally,
Vitacorp International lists offices located in Santa Ana, California, in the Central
District of California. (See Exhibit 16) These facts are strong support for the
Court exercising personal jurisdiction over the Thomas Enterprise Defendants
based upon both the general jurisdiction and personal availment bases for a
Court’s exercise of personal jurisdiction over a defendant. In addition, this
evidence supports this Court’s exercise of personal jurisdiction over the Fahey
Enterprise Defendants a under the purposeful availment theory.

Joshua Fahey intentionally and fraudulently represents himself as an employee of
Biotec Foods, (Plaintiff’s tradename) and directs employees from unsuspecting
customer accounts to “update” their computer to reflect the “new” contact
information. Joshua then provides the Plaintiff’s customer with an address
located in Sarasota, Florida, and known to be a check cashing store with private
mailboxes which is located at 3434 North Tamiami Trl Suite 805; Sarasota, FL
34234. Unsuspecting customers have forwarded payments intended for
Plaintiffs’ directly to Joshua Fahey. The checks are cashed using Union
Planter’s bank located in Peoria, IL. In addition the Plaintiff direct the Court to

Mary Jean Fahey was substitute served through her attorney of record, whose
offices are located in the Central District of California, in the related Order to
Show Cause, Mr. Robert L. Risley. Mr. Risley has denied representing William
J. Fahey; however, has admitted to representing Mary Jean Feak Fahey. This
Court has the discretion to exercise personal jurisdiction over defendant Mary
Jean Feak Fahey based upon the substituted service of process on her attorney
located in the Central District of California. (See discussion of case law at
Supplemental Memorandum of Points and Authorities.)

This Court has personal jurisdiction over defendant William J Fahey
because he was personally served with the summons and complaint initiating
this action while he was physically located here in the Central District of
California. Personal service within a jurisdiction has long been a generally
recognized basis for a Court’s exercise of personal jurisdiction over a defendant.
In addition, in spite of his self serving claims, William J. Fahey has paid taxes in
California. In fact, William J. Fahey used his dummy corporation, Biotec FoodsCalifornia to sue plaintiffs here in the Central District of California in 1996.

the number provided and was connected with a company called “The Enzyme
Company” rather than Agrigenic Food Corporation. The man answering the call
identified himself as “Jackson”, and further declared that Biotec Foods was out of
business and that our computer contact information for the raw material, Biotec
Foods’ wheat sprout powder, which Solgar has purchased from Biotec Foods,
located in Huntington Beach, CA, should be updated to reflect the “correct”
contact information which he declared was: The Enzyme Company; 3434 North
Tamiami Trail Suite 805, Sarasota, FL 34234. In addition, the caller provided me
with the following telephone numbers 800-488-3899 or 800-704-7537 and a fax
number of 941-358-9133. Furthermore, the caller declared that the manufacturer
was Biopharms and that the product was now called Primative Sprout Complex,
but that it was the exactly the same as the Biotec Foods’ wheat sprout powder
that Solgar has purchased from Biotec Foods over the past several years.
(Inference ongoing tortuous activity and possession of AFC’s trade secrets.)
21.
Contrary to defendant Kevin J. Thomas’s self-serving statements that Biotech
Analytical Laboratories, Inc., is a urine and dietary supplement testing service, a
recent article appearing in the Naples Daily News suggests that the “Company” is
a policing agency for the dietary supplement industry. (However, the inference is
that Biotech Analytical Labs is nothing more than an alter ego for defendant
Kevin J. Thomas.) In addition, Thomas appears to have sufficient control over
the “enterprise” to employ his former business partner in defendant’s competing
business (BIOGENETIC FOOD CORPORATION) immediately upon his
release from State prison on one of the largest investment fraud cases to be
recently prosecuted in Southern Florida, Mr. Mike Kiel, a man who still
required to wear a State issued GPS tracking device, is labeled in the article
as Mr. Thomas’s personal assistant.

Furthermore, I noted that a heavy duty shipping scale, and various files and financial
records including corporate tax return and files and our client, Agrigenic Food
Corporation’s corporate record book and files were missing and/or scattered about the
office.
4. At approximately 10:42 am that same morning, and while Huntington Beach police
officers were still present inside the building and continuing their investigation of the
burglary, I overheard Shannon Street, receptionist, answer a telephone call using a
speakerphone on line 5. Based on my knowledge of the company’s telephone system,
that call was had to have been placed to 800-773-3859.
5. After Shannon Street answered the telephone, we heard a male’s voice which I did not
yet recognize make the following threat: “Tell Bob, that if the Police catch us, we’re going
to f**k him up.” The caller then hung up the telephone.
6. Later that same day, Robert Kavanaugh, the president of Arise Direct Marketing, Inc.,
returned to the office and he discussed that morning’s incidents with me along with other
matters relating to the burglary. Using our caller id device and the process of

as a sample bottle of CELL GUARD, a dietary supplement, from the company. I tried the
product and ultimately decided to purchase a quantity of CELL GUARD from the company.
3. Using the same telephone number I had used before when I requested product information

device. To the best of my recollection, the greeting message was as follows: “Enzymes are

Dear Mr. Thomas:
On April 26, 2004, my attorney provided me with a copy of an affidavit allegedly attested to and
filed by you in the US District Court for the Central District of California in case number
99cv2283. If the affidavit was knowingly and intentionally filed as is, the statements attested to
therein, as to the content and subject matter of that conversation, and the entire allegation and
false recounting of credible threats made by me against William J. Fahey and/or his family,
during that April 2, 2004, telephone conversation, would undoubtedly be prosecutable as
unlawful perjury. Federal perjury laws penalize anyone who willfully or knowingly makes false
statements under oath. A related law against subornation of perjury makes it illegal for anyone
to procure another person to commit perjury.
As you know, your ‘leading’ questions were designed to coerce me into making a statement that
might be considered damaging or even threatening. And, as you well know, I made no such
statement, and I certainly never threatened to unlawfully cause harm to Mr. Fahey or his family.
Furthermore, as I was also aware that you had purposefully engaged in the conversation with
me using your speaker-phone, neither of us had any expectation of privacy. Consequently, our
entire telephone conversation of April 2, 2004, was recorded, transcribed, witnessed and logged
in full compliance with California Penal Code Sections 631, 632. If necessary, a true and
complete transcript of our April 2, 2004, conversation fully witnessed and attested to, will be
made available to the Court.
If you were not aware that a sworn statement had been filed, allegedly by you—in support of an
opposition to an order to show cause regarding contempt—and which contained false
allegations as to the content and subject matter of that conversation, and a false recounting of
credible threats made by me against William J. Fahey and/or his family, or if you believe that
another fraud or irregularity was perpetrated on the court by the filing of that document, I urge
you to contact our attorney, William Vogeler at (949) 453-1874 to discuss how you might best
correct the matter.
Otherwise, as a direct result of the false statements attested to in that document, any future
attempt to communicate with me or anyone else at these offices should only be made in the

recording of the entire conversation pursuant to California Penal Code Sections 631, 632. If and
when I accept your telephone calls or participate in a conversation with you, now or at anytime in
the future, you should immediately presume and conclude that the communication is being
monitored and/or recorded except where otherwise expressly stated or prohibited by law.
Furthermore, anything you say may be used as against you in a court of law.

Finally, this letter and its attachments serve as a formal notice to you personally and in your
capacity as an employee, officer or director of any and all companies that may employ you, or
which you might otherwise control, that the US District Court for the Central District of California
has issued a permanent injunction pursuant to 15 U.S.C §1116 [a true and correct copy of which
is attached hereto] which might affect and/or constrain you and your company from engaging in
(or the active concert or participation with those persons engaged in) the manufacture,
assembly, labeling, distribution and/or sale of any of any dietary supplement products listed in
paragraph two of the attached order. If you or Vitarich Labs or any other company under your
control, knowingly violate the attached order and/or engages in active concert or participation
with those persons unlawfully manufacturing, assembling, labeling, distributing, or selling any of
dietary supplement products listed in paragraph two of the order, the court could find you and/or
Vitarich Laboratories in contempt and you and/or your company could be required to pay
damages, and/or be subject to other sanctions and/or fines levied by the court as prescribed by
law.
If you have questions about your legal rights and/or responsibilities, you should contact your own
attorney. If you wish to discuss the aforementioned affidavit or the attached order of the Court,
please feel free to contact our attorney, William K. Vogeler, with Gruenbeck & Vogeler at (949)

Who Should Take ProGreens®?
Is ProGreens® A Weight Loss Product?
Anyone who is concerned about the lack of
proper nutrition in today’s diet.
Although ProGreens® was not designed to be a
weight loss product, many people use it as such
because of its energizing and appetite surpressing effects, which are probably due to it’s nutrient density.
ProGreens® is a mixture of 32 ingredients,
including the “super green” powders (all glutenfree), herbs, non-diary probiotics and other
nutrients (see complete list of ingredients on
reverse).
Is ProGreens Organic?
®
Most of the ingredients are certified organic,
however, the Ginkgo biloba, milk thistle and bee
pollen are not certified organic.
I Am Allergic To Wheat. Will I React To The
Wheat Sprouts & Grasses In ProGreens®?
No. Our wheat sprouts and grass powders are
free of gluten, which is a common cause of
wheat allergies.
When Should I Take ProGreens®?
“I have studied
nutrition for over 25
years. When I take
ProGreens daily, I
know I’ve done one of
the best things I can
possibly do for my
health each day.”
®
Jesse Hanley, M.D.
Malibu Health & Fitness Center
Los Angeles, California
We suggest taking it in the morning on an empty
stomach.
What Is The Shelf Life Of ProGreens ?
®
The shelf life is two years unopened and 6
months after opening if refrigerated.
How Does ProGreens® Taste?
It has a neutral taste that takes on the flavor of
the liquid you mix it with.
Can I Premix ProGreens ® In Advance?
ProGreens® is enzymatically live and fully active
when you mix it with liquid. To maintain full
potency, we suggest mixing it fresh each time.
Can I Take Too Much ProGreens®?
It can be taken once a day in the morning, and
after strenuous workouts to replenish lost minerals.
Will ProGreens® Interfere With Medications?
Do I Need To Take ProGreens® Everyday?
ProGreens® has not been shown to interfere with medications. However,
it is best to consult your healthcare professional.
We suggest taking ProGreens® every day as a source of valuable
nutrition, however some herbalists suggest skipping 1 or 2 days
every 3 weeks or so.
Can Children Take ProGreens®?
Why Should I Take ProGreens® On An Empty Stomach?
Yes, beginning at about 3 yrs of age, children can start with 1/4 tsp. per
day; at 10 yrs., 1 tsp. per day; and at 14 yrs., full serving.
Because it digests more quickly when taken without additional food.
How Many Calories Are In ProGreens ®?
These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This
product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Less than 40 calories per serving.

Hi, I'm Mark Timon, clinical nutritionist and
formulator for Vibrant Health. I'd like to tell you
something about Green Vibrance and the way we
make products here.
Green Vibrance came into being back in 1992. It
was the first green superfood to appear in health and
natural food stores. Since then, our concept of a
green superfood has been imitated many times by
other companies, but no one has ever dared to match
our respect for you and our devotion to your wellbeing. That is evident in the formulation of Green
Vibrance.

Sincerely,
What do I mean by this? I mean that I won't cut
corners, that we use the best, most organic
ingredients we can find, that my formulas are based
on solid nutritional science, that my products deliver
effective potencies, and that you will always know
what you are getting. Every Vibrant Health product
carries full-disclosure labeling, which I pioneered in
1976.
We demonstrate our concern for you by superior
formulation and ongoing diligence. For instance,
Green Vibrance has undergone five formula updates since its inception - and I
there will be more. Each update has taken advantage of the appearance of new n

Workers inspect blister
packs of sublingual B12,
a supplement that can
be dissolved under the
tongue, within the
packaging department
of Vitarich Laboratories,
Inc. on Arnold Avenue in
Naples on Tuesday.
But he was ready for the big world of business and ready to make his first million. So he borrowed his grandfather's bicycle
and pedaled down ritzy Gordon Drive in Naples. He thought: Where better to find out how to become a millionaire than on a street filled with them?
He stopped at one of the largest, most exotic mansions. Sitting on 5 acres, it had two homes, one pagoda-inspired and the other with a 1960s art deco
design. The estate was owned by Jim Fahey, a highly successful businessman and entrepreneur. The property included a 360,000-gallon pool. Llamas,
geese and goats roamed the estate.
When Thomas caught a glimpse of Fahey and his giant mustache in the front yard, he asked: "How did you get all this stuff?"
The two chatted for a while. Then Fahey invited Thomas to come back the next day, saying he should report to work by 4 a.m. because "that's when
millionaires start their day." Thomas arrived at 3:59 a.m., wearing a business suit.
The rest is history, as Thomas likes to say. Thomas soon moved into Fahey's guest house and became a salesman for Biotec, a pioneer in the
development of nutraceuticals, including dietary supplements. "He bought me a motor home and gave me a big map," Thomas said. "I was on the road
for two years, visiting health food stores."
With Thomas as Biotec's first salesman, annual sales grew by 90 percent to nearly $100 million, he says.
More than two decades later, Thomas, 44, sits at the top of his own multimillion-dollar nutraceutical business. He owns Vitarich Laboratories in
Naples, which earned revenues of about $17 million in the past year.
The company has seen explosive growth since 1992, when Thomas started it out of his home.
Vitarich develops, researches and manufactures everything from chewable B-12 capsules to vitamin-packed powders such as Green Vibrance, which is
designed to boost the immune system.
The local company recently became public through a merger with Maryland-based Argan Inc. so it can continue its growth. "The growth is ahead of us,
not behind us," Thomas said.
Big business
Vitarich has become a major player in the global, $150 billion nutritional industry.
It has more than 100 companies as clients and its distribution channels include health food stores, mail-order companies and television-based retailers
such as the Home Shopping Network.
One of the most popular products that it manufactures is Greens+, an award-winning, vitamin-packed "green drink."
The company is always looking to create new products. Formulators are now working on a "healthy" beer, which is based on an Egyptian recipe that's
more than 4,000 years old. Vitarich doesn't have its own retail brand name. Instead it manufactures everything under private labels for other
companies.
"Every time we invent something for one of our customers, it moves into the top 5 percent of their sales category," Thomas said.
Vitarich has its own researchers and scientists to create new products in its lab. Microbiologists, chemists and formulators work busily in crisp white
lab coats and hair nets.
Ideas for new products come from inside the company and from the outside at the request of Vitarich's customers. There are 12 doctors on the
company's advisory board, who help direct research and development.
Vitarich's growth is tied to the growth in the nutritional industry.
"The industry is growing due to many factors," said Gerry David, Vitarich's president and chief operating officer. "But one major factor is that the baby
boomers are spending more money to look and feel better. And then you have the follow-on group, which are the children of the baby boomers. I guess
you can call them the echo boomers."
He said these "echo boomers" are more educated and knowledgeable about preventive health and they are taking dietary supplements to make sure they
get the proper nutrition.
In 2000, Vitarich earned $7 million in revenue. Its annual revenues have more than doubled since then and the work force continues to grow.
"We've hired probably over the last year maybe 20 or so employees," David said. "But we have a very, very low turnover rate at our company. And
many of our employees have been here for years."

Vitarich got its start in Thomas' Naples condominium in September 1992. As the demand for space grew, he moved the business from a small bedroom
to the garage.
"We feel the outlook for the industry is very, very stable right now," Bosselman said. "There's a very strong appetite out there by the public for these
products."
In May 1993, Thomas relocated the company again, this time to a 800-square-foot building on Bayshore Drive in East Naples. At that time, he had two
employees.
Today, Vitarich employs 85 people, most of them Latinos.
He said Argan is looking to acquire other nutraceutical companies that are "below the radar screen," with annual revenues of less than $20 million.
Bosselman has been in talks with three other companies that are similar to Vitarich. But he doesn't see merging them with Vitarich. He said they could
work cooperatively to reduce costs by combining purchases for employee benefits, raw materials and other goods. He said the profit margins for
nutraceutical companies are much larger than for most other manufacturers.
Vitarich is headquartered at the Arnold Industrial Park behind the Tamiami Ford dealership off Airport-Pulling Road. The business has spread into five
buildings along Arnold Avenue. The company occupies 47,000 square feet, but it needs more.
"It's a very interesting business to us," Bosselman said. Argan has pumped new money into Vitarich that will allow it to expand. But Bosselman won't
say how much.
Thomas is searching for a 60,000- to 80,000-square-foot building that can serve as Vitarich's new home. "We're desperately looking for one location,"
he said.
As a public company, Vitarich now offers stock options to its employees. New employees must be with the company for at least a year to get them.
Thomas said his company can now grow by "quantum leaps," instead of grinding it out.
In the next three to five years, Vitarich expects to more than double its work force to meet the growing demand for its products and services.
Fate or fortune
Thomas recalls his fateful meeting with Fahey more than two decades ago like it was yesterday.
Thomas hopes to keep the company in Naples, but says he may be forced to move to Lee County, where there are more options for a larger
headquarters.
The gate to Fahey's home just happened to be open when Thomas pedaled by on his grandfather's bicycle.
"We'd like to stay in Naples, but we can't find anything anywhere," he said.
Fahey was an executive at Norwich Pharmaceuticals and owned three companies: Biotec Foods, Biotec Labs, and Biovet, all pioneer nutraceutical
companies. He had recently purchased the mansion in Naples when Thomas stopped by to ask how he'd made his millions.
The Economic Development Council of Collier County, whose mission is to attract and keep high-wage jobs in targeted industries, is working with
Vitarich to keep its headquarters in Collier County. Manufacturing is one of the EDC's targeted industries.
When Fahey invited Thomas back to his house the next day to work, Thomas wasn't sure what to expect. He was told to bring a "suit." Unsure what
Fahey meant, Thomas wore a business suit and tucked his swim suit under his arm.
"It's definitely one of those poster childs for us that we can use to demonstrate to other companies how successful you can be here in Collier County,"
said Tammie Nemecek, the EDC's executive director. "Their technology is right on the cutting edge. They are growing."
The EDC has helped coordinate training programs for Vitarich.
When he arrived, Thomas was told to go clean the algae pond, wearing "whichever suit he preferred." Thomas said his passion for growing and
processing "green foods" was born soon after meeting Fahey.
It can also offer Vitarich fast-track permitting if the company can find a suitable location in Collier County. Vitarich is looking for 3.5 acres.
Thomas has tried other ventures and started other companies in his quest to become a millionaire.
Growing greens
At 24, he created a Naples Millionaire game, a localized version of Monopoly. Each spot on the game board was sold to advertisers such as Pippin's,
Hodges Funeral Chapel and Robert of Philadelphia hair design.
Vitarich has its own 2,500-acre farm, where it grows the greens that are found in many of its finished products.
He's help found several other local companies, including two interior design firms. His former wife was an interior designer.
The farm is partly in northern Florida and partly in Bainbridge, Ga.
Thomas was raised in Birmingham, Mich. He came to Naples in 1972 at the urging of his grandfather, Ed Porter, who retired here after working in the
automotive industry.
Vitarich grows such health foods as barley, wheat, alfalfa and hydrilla. Vitarich also imports ingredients from all over the world.
"I just moved down here," he said. "I didn't know why. My grandfather was my mentor and he told me to do it."
"We buy a lot of stuff from Russia," Thomas said. "We buy from China, Brazil, Argentina, France, Germany, England, and, of course, the United
States."
Thomas is glad he listened.
Every product that comes in from the outside is checked over to make sure it's what the label says. The company uses state-of-the-art computer
technology to review every ingredient.

"If there's anything wrong with it, we put it in prison," said Thomas, pointing to a quarantine area behind bars in a company warehouse.
And if there's something wrong, the product goes back to the sender, he added.
Computers can develop a fingerprint for a product so that it can be quickly verified each time.
Some supplements have 35 or more ingredients. Each is tested and validated.
"It's like Thanksgiving Day," Thomas said. "Everything has to be hot and fresh on the 24th."
Earlier this month, Vitarich earned Good Manufacturing Practices certification from the National Nutritional Foods Association, with an "A" rating.
That positions the company well for the future as the federal government is poised to increase regulations on the manufacturing of dietary supplements,
Thomas says.
Vitarich is one of only 50 in North America to achieve certification from NNFA.
The company has poured millions of dollars into its manufacturing equipment.
One of its machines can spit out 90,000 capsules in an hour. Another presses tablets into foil cards at the rate of 650,000 cards a month. Each card has
10 tablets.
There are high-tech machines that suck oxygen out of bottles to make sure ingredients stay fresh after packaging. Giant blenders, nearly as tall as the
ceiling, work almost nonstop during the day, mixing ingredients together in preparation for packaging. "Very few vitamin companies invest in this kind
of equipment," Thomas said. "Pharmaceutical companies do."
Going public
On Sept. 10, Vitarich announced its merger with Argan Inc., a move that took the company public.
Vitarich now operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Argan based in Rockville, Md. Argan trades under the symbol AGAX on the Over-the-Counter
Bulletin Board. Argan's only other investment is in Southern Maryland Cable Inc., a telecommunications company it acquired in July 2003. Argan's
stock trades in the $6 range.
Rainer Bosselmann, Argan's chairman, president and chief executive officer, is bullish on Vitarich. He said the industry one day will be regulated by
the Food and Drug Administration and that Vitarich will become even more valuable because it already has such high standards for quality. One of
those standards is that any product that's more than 6 months old is thrown out.
Bosselmann said he's impressed with Vitarich's revenue growth. He calls the company a "first-class operation" and says he sees the opportunity for a
lot more.

What you don't know could be killing you...
Many future health problems that we could face might be avoidable if we had information
about what is going on in our body and what nutrients we are lacking. The Wellness
Industry will explode to One Trillion dollars in sales by 2010, according to many experts.
With this explosion, Americans will be spending more than ever on nutritional support
products. At the same time, many of these individuals will not ever know if what they are
taking is beneficial to them or not. With Växa BioTrac Analysis, we are able to determine
deficiencies and excesses of over 70 elements (minerals), evaluate one's pH, and
determine if your body is harboring any dangerous, heavy metal toxins. In addition, BioTrac
Analysis is also able to determine organ functioning integrity based on excess or the lack of
select key elements. Based on your urine evaluation, you are able to isolate what
supplementation may be beneficial for your individual needs.
How is your health?
According to the Mayo Clinic, the human life span can be as long as 120 years. However,
most people born today can only expect to live to be 76. Many people believe that your
lifespan is determined by your genetics. But genetics only play a very small role in the
overall picture. We now understand better than ever the role that nutritional
supplementation and lifestyle play in obtaining and maintaining true 'wholeness of health'. In
our effort to feel better and live longer, we take vitamins and other supplementation, which

we may not need. Until now, there has never been any way of really knowing what our body
was deficient in or what specific systems needed attention. Växa's BioTrac Analysis takes
the guesswork out of the "supplementation puzzle".
Proven Results...New Technology!
BioTrac Analysis is conducted utilizing the Perkin Elmer Optical Emissions Spectrometer
Analytical System. This is the same system utilized by laboratories, hospitals, and the CDC
(Center for Disease Control) for years to meet their testing needs. While Växa utilizes the
same technology as these laboratories, we also incorporate customized analytical software
to test a broader spectrum of components allowing us to provide a detailed picture of
various health concerns that could be affecting you.

HEADLINE: Natural Products Expo
BYLINE: Chris Arnold, Anaheim; Linda Wertheimer, Washington, DC
HIGHLIGHT:
NPR's Chris Arnold reports on the annual "Natural Product Expo," held in Anaheim,
California this year. Entrepreneurs from around the country offered a surprising
array of products, from soy- milk based whipped cream to candles made without any
animal fats.
BODY:
THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY
BE UPDATED.
NOAH ADAMS, HOST: America's tastes change. There was a time when organic or
natural products were as commonplace as the garden outside your kitchen window.
To eat something canned was to eat something you put up yourself, or perhaps
something given to you by a neighbor.
A World War changed that, and for many years, cans were the source of much of
what we ate. The somewhat perverse that home-baked bread was somehow low
class even crept into the popular culture.
But in the past decade, organic and natural products have left their exile on the
shelves of heath food stores and made it back into the local grocery. Sales of organic

foods now total some $12 billion a year.
For soy milk maker Glen Fuller (ph), his passion was dairy products.
NPR's Chris Arnold attended this year's Natural Products Expo, and reports on a
booming business.
GLEN FULLER, CEO, SOBEX FOODS: Oh yes. Yes, I love anything -- anything that's
ever been close to a cow I love.
SOUNDBITE OF A CROWD IN CONVENTION CENTER
CHRIS ARNOLD, NPR REPORTER: This year's expo drew thousands of people into the
Anaheim Convention Center. In all, about 1,900 booths are set up here, and
snacking your way through the crowd gives you a strange, if healthy combination of
food in your stomach.
There's black bean burgers, organic figs smeared with honey, alarmingly green
vegetable and herb drinks, and medicinal teas. Behind many of these products are
entrepreneurs, hoping their idea of healthy will catch on in this rapidly growing
industry.
ARNOLD: Fuller grew up on a dairy farm and says he would eat whipped cream right
out of a bowl with a spoon, but then he became lactose intolerant.
FULLER: Whipped cream is still one of my favorite desserts. The problem is that my
body doesn't agree with it. So in the process of trying to find a solution for my
dilemma of loving dairy, I went through all the alternatives that were available in the
marketplace and none of them tasted like dairy.
ARNOLD: So, he developed his own product. Today, Fuller is CEO of Sobex Foods,
which sells a line of tofu-based dairy products.
LYNETTE RICHARDS (PH), CANDLEWORKS (PH): These are done with all-vegetable
waxes and also with blends of essential oils. And we've worked really hard to have it
be a formula...
But while vegetable candles and tofu are the kind friendly vegetarian products you
might expect to see at the Natural Products Expo, some others seem more interested
in profits than health.
ARNOLD: Lynette Richards and her husband Michael of Iowa City own and run
Candleworks.
SOUNDBITE OF A CROWD OF SALESWOMEN
SIERRA LEGNER (PH), SUPPLEMENT SALESWOMAN, VAXA INTERNATIONAL: Are you
familiar with iviculation (ph) or olkelation (ph)? It's a detoxification of the
cardiovascular system.
MICHAEL RICHARDS, CANDLEWORKS, FORMER SOCIAL SERVICES AGENCY
DIRECTOR: We manufacture an all-vegetable wax candle.
ARNOLD: And what's the advantage of an all-vegetable wax candle?
MICHAEL RICHARDS: Well for people who prefer vegetarian food, most candles are
made with animal fats and petroleum. So, it's a bit inconsistent to have your tofu
and other natural ingredients on the table and then light up your animal-fat candle.
ARNOLD: The Richards have some competitors here with similar candles. But one
thing some retailers browsing the aisles say they look for in a product is social
responsibility. And on that score, the Richards have just about everyone beat.
Michael Richards was formerly the director of a social services agency, and every
employee they hire is either previously homeless or is suffering from a mental or
physical disability. And that seems to have helped this business stand out and rapidly
increase revenues.
MICHAEL RICHARDS: Right now, last year was $800,000 per year, and for 1998, it
looks like $1.2 million. And which is interesting because we started in an abandoned
building with no electricity, no running water, and it looked more like a Peace Corps
project than a business in the United States.
And we boot-strapped it all the way up to a full manufacturing facility.
ARNOLD: Richards and his wife are employing 30 disadvantaged people in this forprofit business. They plan to soon hire 20 more. As you walk around here, you begin
to realize many of the inventors in these booths have had some experience or
passion that's led them here.
Supplemental Exhibit 9
4 of 14
ARNOLD: Sierra Legner and several other saleswomen are standing the midst of the
trade show's supplement pavilion. At many of the booths here, tan male and female
bodybuilders espouse the health benefits of a variety of pills and powders.
Legner works for Vaxa International, which makes homeopathic nutriseuticals. She
claims this one will reverse the hardening of blood vessels in your heart.
LEGNER: We actually have a sample in here of our "Buffer pH," which is our acidic
neutralizer. But not only that, it goes in and it loosens the plaque on your arterial
walls. And then our other product goes in and basically rotor-rooters that plaque
right out. So, it's a very effective product.
ARNOLD: Except it doesn't work. A cardiac specialist from Stanford University we
spoke with says these claims sound completely bogus and maybe illegal. Alternative
medicine companies, though, are a big part of the natural products industry.
Some just peddle placebos and prey on people's fears, but experts say many others
do offer effective products. And even if some of this stuff is dubious, some say the
pill companies have helped the broader industries survive.
Jay Hymen (ph) is with Worthington (ph) Foods, a maker of vegetarian alternatives
to meat. He says the small independent stores that buy his products often stay in
business by selling these pills or supplements, because the profit margins are so
phenomenally high.
JAY HYMEN, WORTHINGTON FOODS: The stores make their money off the

supplements. So I'm happy they're here. I -- I, you know, each day say a prayer for
their continued health and existence.
ARNOLD: The natural product sector as a whole promises to have a healthy future.
Attendance at the expo is up 15 percent this year. Especially hot right now is the $4
billion organic food market, which analysts say is growing at 20 percent annually.

"The Nutritional Supplement Journey"
When you walk into a health food store or when looking at multiple pages
of Internet links regarding Nutritional Supplements, it can become
overwhelming. Where do you start? How do you know that the products
on the shelf, and on the World Wide Web are of the highest quality and
purity to ensure safety and effectiveness? Only to confuse you even
more, the mass media often plants seeds of doubt on Nutritional
Supplements, including Vitamins E and C, which are scientifically
documented to have positive benefits towards the prevention of chronic
disease. Our goal has always been to educate our customers on all
aspects of the nutritional industry in order to help you make informed proactive decisions
regarding healthy choices.

How To Choose Digestive Enzymes
High Blood Pressure
When buying digestive enzymes be sure to choose a brand that contains all of the major groups
of enzymes such as amylase, protease, and lipase. Also, if supplementing with superoxide
dismutase (SOD), it is important to be sure that the product is enteric coated (coated with
protective substances) for better absorption.

6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
Buy a broad spectrum supplement, containing a synergistic blend of ingredients.
Are the ingredients pure and bioavailable?
Note the shelf life of the product.
When purchasing vitamins make sure the container is opaque (avoiding sunlight) and
kept in a cool dry place.
Make sure the manufacturing lab meets Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) standards.
Watch out for inactive ingredients like unnecessary fillers and binders.
Make sure the product is certified laboratory tested, pharmaceutical grade.
Choose natural ingredients over synthetic.
Exercise caution when taking excessive amounts of any single ingredient.
If you are taking pharmaceutical medications be sure to check with a knowledgeable
pharmacist or your doctor before taking any supplementation.
Pet Health
Supplementing with digestive enzymes aids the body in obtaining all of the nutritional value from
the foods you eat. Växa's Homeopathic Medicinal Digestin contains all of the major groups of
enzymes Amylase (including Lactase, Maltase, and Sucrase), Protease, Lipase, Cellulase,
and more.
How To Choose Amino Acids
There are very specific criteria to look for when choosing amino acids. The first criteria to consider

Weekly Health Tip
Synthetic vitamins/minerals are produced in laboratories from isolated chemicals, which are made
to be identical to those found in nature. Natural vitamins/minerals are acquired directly from food
sources. Though, some will argue that they are exactly the same, this is just not so. One
distinguishing characteristic is that natural vitamins are woven into the food along with other
nutrients (complex molecules) that have not yet been discovered. There are definite benefits in
natural supplements such as better absorption by the body, etc. Another consideration is that
synthetic vitamins/minerals may contain coal tars, artificial coloring, preservatives, sugars,
starches, and other additives.

When looking at the label on the back of a dietary supplement, what are you really looking at?
The term RDA (Recommended Dietary Allowances), introduced over 40 years ago by the
National Academy of Sciences' U.S. Food and Nutrition Board (FNB), was set as a standard for
the daily amounts of vitamins needed to maintain health. Now, the new standard is called the DV
(Daily Value), which was introduced by the FDA in 1994. There are two sub categories of the DV:
the DRVs (Daily Reference Values) and the RDIs (Reference Daily Intakes). The DRVs represent
the daily references of fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, carbohydrate, protein, fiber, sodium and
potassium. The RDIs represent the daily references of essential vitamins and minerals, and
where it applies, protein.
Human Growth Hormone
Intestinal Flora
Probiotics
Reading Labels: The New RDA
Now that you have a little better understanding of what you are looking at, keep in mind that these
references only refer to the minimum vitamin/mineral requirements needed by the body to avoid
deficiency. In order to prevent chronic and degenerative diseases, higher levels than the RDI are
required. However, exercising caution is prudent.

is, "are these amino acids free-form?" Free-form amino acids are the purest form and need no
digestion, leaving the amino acids easily absorbed into the bloodstream. The second, very
important, criteria to consider is "are these amino acids USP (U.S. Pharmacopeia)
pharmaceutical-grade?" If they are, it should state it on the label. One last consideration is this,
when taking individual amino acids (especially at high doses) neurological damage may occur, so
choose a quality amino acid complex containing both essential and non-essential amino acids. It
is also a good rule of thumb to take the product for two months, and then take a break from the
product for two months.

This is a unique, accurate and very confidential health evaluation done by the
PhD. scientists at BioTrac Laboratories - 4369 Arnold Avenue, Naples. Florida,
34104. The client must indicate whether they want their confidential report
sent to their doctor, otherwise BioTrac sends it only to the client.
Once reviewed, a specific nutritional program can be implemented to assist
with any imbalances and deficiencies, toward optimizing health. If you are
having your analysis done independent of the InnerLife Wellness Center, we
strongly advise consulting with your physician about following up and
following through. (Optionally Free professional online consultation is
available with Dr. Homer )
You are provided with a small sterile, plastic covered container. The attached
form must be accurately completed and the urine sample placed into the
sealed container. It is then placed into the provided insulated, shockproof
package, then into the provided self-addressed box for mailing to Bio-Trac
Labs. the processing takes 7-10 working days in the US. Allocate a little more
time if outside the USA.
InnerLife Wellness Center, through its proud affiliation with Vaxa
International (the world's leaders in advanced dietary
nutraceuticals), are proud to be able to offer this unique and accurate
assessment for the building of better health.
What you don't know could be killing you...
Many future health problems that we could face might be avoidable if we had
information about what is going on in our body and what nutrients we are
lacking. The Wellness Industry will explode to One Trillion dollars in sales by
2010, according to many experts. With this explosion, Americans will be
spending more than ever on nutritional support products. At the same time,
many of these individuals will not ever know if what they are taking is
beneficial to them or not. With Växa BioTrac Analysis, we are able to
determine deficiencies and excesses of over 70 elements (minerals), evaluate
one's pH, and determine if your body is harboring any dangerous, heavy
metal toxins. In addition, BioTrac Analysis is also able to determine organ
functioning integrity based on excess or the lack of select key elements.
Based on your urine evaluation, you are able to isolate what supplementation
may be beneficial for your individual needs.

According to the Mayo Clinic, the human life span can be as long as 120
years. However, most people born today can only expect to live to be 76.
Many people believe that your lifespan is determined by your genetics. But
genetics only play a very small role in the overall picture. We now understand
better than ever the role that nutritional supplementation and lifestyle play in
obtaining and maintaining true 'wholeness of health'. In our effort to feel
better and live longer, we take vitamins and other supplementation, which we
may not need. Until now, there has never been any way of really knowing
what our body was deficient in or what specific systems needed attention.
Växa's BioTrac Analysis takes the guesswork out of the "supplementation
puzzle".
Proven Results...New Technology!
BioTrac Analysis is conducted utilizing the Perkin Elmer Optical Emissions
Spectrometer Analytical System. This is the same system utilized by
laboratories, hospitals, and the CDC (Center for Disease Control) for years to
meet their testing needs. While Växa utilizes the same technology as these
laboratories, we also incorporate customized analytical software to test a
broader spectrum of components allowing us to provide a detailed picture of
various health concerns that could be affecting you.
All testing is conducted in a clinical laboratory and is overseen by Dr. Philippe
Moser. Dr. Moser received his doctorate from the University of Montpellier
and is a trained Homeopath, Herbologist, and Micro-Nutritionalist. Moser has
utilized this technology in Europe to help over 22,000 individuals know and
understand their particular health concerns.
This technology, utilized by hospitals and labs across America and worldwide,
is now available to you in a more complete format. In addition, Växa has
made this test affordable so that anyone concerned with their nutritional
health can be armed with the knowledge that only BioTrac Analysis can offer!
Now it is your turn to know...
You know the old saying "knowledge is power". Get the knowledge you
deserve with Växa's BioTrac Analysis. Supplementation of nutritional products
is not sufficient in creating optimal health, but rather, proper
supplementation based on the evaluation of one's needs. Order your test

Oxyfresh History
Page 1 of 3
In today's society it is unusual to conduct business with a company that has been around as long as
Oxyfresh. It is estimated that 80 percent of all businesses fail within their first year. Eight percent of
those who do survive their first year, do not see year five. And, of those businesses that do last five
years, 80 percent dissolve before reaching the ten-year mark.
At Oxyfresh Worldwide, Inc., we are proud to be celebrating 17 years of success in 2001! We've built
a solid foundation—through quality products and a potentially life-changing opportunity—on which
many people have become successful Oxyfresh Distributors.
Looking Back
In late 1983, a Spokane businessman began making plans to launch a new Network Marketing
company to distribute a unique mouthrinse called Oxyfresh. The product was a powerful deodorizer,
and early users swore it had other "magical" benefits, as well. Word of the business venture began
to spread throughout Spokane, as numerous people showed up at the founder's home—where early
batches of the mouthrinse were mixed right in his kitchen—to try this new product and gather
information about the business opportunity.

Overall shipping time.................3-6 Days
(Rates may change)
(*Meet our mailing requirements, ship us your order by 2/15/05 and your standard
shipping is FREE.)
By January 1984, the company was formed and local distributors began to sell the products and
build a network. Those who visited "the company in the kitchen" were actually sponsored by the
company—some forty, or so, founders.
Standard shipping:
We currently ship to street addresses (all shipping methods),
to P.O. boxes within the 50 United States (standard shipping only),
to APO/FPO U.S. Military addresses (standard shipping only) and
now to U.S. Territories. Packages sent to Military or Territorial
addresses may be delayed by standard mail handling. Packages
over twenty pounds may require additional shipping time.
International shipping rates will vary. Contact us for more
information.
Delivery times may be longer for items that require ground shipping.
Among those early founders were Roland and Virginia Fox, with partners Win and Lyn Key. These
partners loved to wander the travel-trailer routes and visit with other retirees. As they traveled to
warmer climates during the winter and spring months, they began telling people about the "magical"
mouthrinse. Their original vision was to earn $500, just enough to help defray the cost of fuel for
their motorhome.
Throughout 1984, Oxyfresh USA, Inc., as the company was called at that time, struggled to survive.
The product line consisted of the mouthrinse packaged only in dairy creamer cups (300 per box),
most of which leaked or evaporated within a few months of storage. Several times throughout that
first year, the company suspended the meager commission checks that were earned, as it couldn't
afford to pay them just yet. Despite these obstacles, Roland and Virginia Fox, the Keys and a few
others, believed in Oxyfresh and continued to build their organizations.
2-3 Day order processing:
Orders received before 5 p.m. Eastern Time Monday thought Friday
will be processed the same day. Orders received after 5 p.m. Eastern
Time will be processed the next day. Orders received after 5 p.m.
Eastern Time Friday, Saturday or on Sunday will be processed on
Monday.
Our transportation partners do not process orders on the weekend.
Therefore, if you place an order after 5 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday,
you may experience a delay with the actual shipment of your order.
In 1985, intrigued by the "magical mouthrinse" and its major market potential, the company began to
attract investors and a new management team. Soon, there were more vice presidents and policies
and procedures, it seemed, than distributors! Within 1985 alone, the company had three different
Compensation Plans, and three different Vice Presidents of Sales to promote them. 1985 was such
a chaotic time, that most distributors gave up and quit. In fact, all those who were originally
sponsored by the company quit. All except one...Roland Fox.
Weekend delivery: Orders shipped via U.P.S. (2-3 day) are delivered
Monday through Saturday only.
In early 1986, concerned with the direction the company had taken, Roland decided that Oxyfresh
needed new management. So, he hired one of his "wholesale customers"—Randy Anderson, a
successful 15-year veteran of Network Marketing—to come to Spokane to teach a One-Day School.
Roland organized the local event so that the company's management and owners would attend.
Within days of Randy's dazzling performance, the owners of Oxyfresh, with Roland's constant
prodding, asked Randy to put together a new management team to guide the company. Partnering
with Roland, Randy took the challenge and went about building a new Oxyfresh. Soon thereafter,
Richard Brooke joined the struggling company as Vice President of Marketing. By June, Richard was
appointed President, Randy was appointed Vice President of Sales, and Oxyfresh Toothpaste was
added to the product line.
Alaska and Hawaii: Shipping to Alaska and Hawaii may require an
additional one to two days. Shipping charge for orders shipped via U.
P.S. (2-3 day) to Alaska & Hawaii is $24.95.

were, and still are, essential elements of this training. The first Leadership Seminar was held in
Marysville, Washington. Sales continued to climb that year, allowing management to pay off many of
the debts that had been incurred. By 1989, sales had soared to new heights, and for the first time,
Oxyfresh could see light at the end of the tunnel.
Oxyfresh began to make inroads into the dental community in 1990, and was featured in Dentist
magazine. In March 1992, SUCCESS magazine—the first national magazine ever to do so—
dedicated an entire issue to the emerging Network Marketing industry, featuring Oxyfresh on the
cover. Other awards followed that year from the MLMIA (Multi-Level Marketing International
Association) and Upline Financial Press. The product line doubled again, and Oxyfresh achieved yet
another record year in sales.
It’s Malaysian subsidiary, NuOxyLife (M) Sdn Bhd was established in 1998 at the onslaught on the
economic recession. This office in Malaysia acts as the Regional Headquarters for its expansion into
Asia.

the debts that had been incurred. By 1989, sales had soared to new heights, and for the first time,
Oxyfresh could see light at the end of the tunnel.
Looking Ahead
Today, Oxyfresh is proud to enjoy a reputation as one of the most successful, well-respected
Network Marketing companies in the industry. Our most profound growth will continue to come from
our leaders. Oxyfresh leaders are committed to shifting society's paradigms of income potential and
how long it should take to attain financial freedom. Oxyfresh leaders will earn extraordinary residual
incomes, providing them the freedom to individually create and contribute through their personal
vision. Oxyfresh leaders are committed to making a difference in people's lives and leaving our world
a better place than when they entered it. Oxyfresh leaders are also committed to playing "full out"—
experiencing the most fun and fulfillment life has to offer. The synergy of our work will result in
Oxyfresh continuing to grow at an extraordinary pace, creating millionaires in the process. We
challenge you, and invite you to play with us!
Oxyfresh began to make inroads into the dental community in 1990, and was featured in Dentist
magazine. In March 1992, SUCCESS magazine—the first national magazine ever to do so—
dedicated an entire issue to the emerging Network Marketing industry, featuring Oxyfresh on the
cover. Other awards followed that year from the MLMIA (Multi-Level Marketing International
Association) and Upline Financial Press. The product line doubled again, and Oxyfresh achieved yet
another record year in sales.
It’s Malaysian subsidiary, NuOxyLife (M) Sdn Bhd was established in 1998 at the onslaught on the
economic recession. This office in Malaysia acts as the Regional Headquarters for its expansion into
Asia.

SECTION: FOOD;Pg. E-2
LENGTH: 625 words
HEADLINE: No harm in freezing milk
BYLINE: ED BLONZ; Ed Blonz, Ph.D., is the author of seven books on foods and
nutrition.
BODY:
QUESTION: I have a question regarding milk, specifically lactose-free milk. Can you
freeze milk without harming the nutrients? Military families have been freezing milk
for years, but I have never found out if it is a good thing to do. Hopefully you have
an answer to my
question.
V.M., San Diego
ANSWER: Freezing is a safe and acceptable way to store milk, and the changes in
nutritional value would be negligible. This would be the case for any type of milk,
including a lactose-free product.
In some cases there will be minor changes in the way the milk appears and tastes.
Freezing can cause a breakdown in homogenization, the process that distributes the
milk fat evenly throughout milk. This won't be an issue with nonfat milks, but an
occasional drop of fat may be seen floating in low-fat or whole milks. The best advice
is to shake the container before drinking.
Depending on the speed at which the milk is frozen, slight changes in taste and some
loss of color are possible. In addition, a small amount of sediment may develop.
These changes are negligible and do not reflect any change in the wholesomeness of
the milk.
A good rule of thumb is, the faster the freeze, the smaller the damage.
It is always best to put the milk in a well-sealed container. You can foster a quicker
freeze by placing the container next to a freezer wall or on a metal shelf.
Remember also that, because milk is a rich source of nutrients, it provides an ideal
medium for bacteria and other microorganisms. Pasteurization helps destroy most,
but not all, of the bacteria that are present at bottling.
Freezing does not destroy microorganisms, it just suspends or slows their growth.
The quality of defrosted milk will be no better than that of the milk at the time it was
frozen.

I am a 70-year-old woman and have been told by my doctor that my body does not
absorb
vitamin B-12. He said that I need to get a monthly B-12 shot. Recently, I have come
across an advertisement for a sublingual vitamin B-12. It is called Trivita Sublingual
B-12 with B-6 and folic acid. How effective is this product, and would I be able to
discontinue my monthly shots?
G.S., Nashua, N.H.
I cannot comment on this particular brand, but there is some research evidence that
sublingual (drops under the tongue) vitamin B-12 can be effective. Nasal sprays can
also work.
These are not as efficient a route of administration as injections, so they are not
appropriate for every case of vitamin B-12 deficiency.
I would encourage you to discuss this with your physician. You can tell him to refer
to a study in the Aug. 28, 1999, issue of the journal Lancet titled "Sublingual therapy
for cobalamin deficiency as an
alternative to oral and parenteral
cobalamin supplementation."
haven’t experienced any more symptoms
After hearing about Dr. Libby's Sublingual B-12, B-6, & Folic Acid, and how it can contribute to heart health, I
began taking it because of my heart condition, fibrillation. I haven't experienced any more symptoms of the
condition ever since I began taking TriVita Sublingual B-12! I'll never go without it!

On October 28, 2004, the Company entered into a letter of intent with Vitamin Research Products, Inc. ("VRP") to acquire all of the
common stock of VRP. The consummation of the transaction is contingent upon the completion of the Company's due diligence, the
signing of definitive purchase and sale agreement, approval of both companies' board of directors and other conditions.
Competition
The market for nutritional products is highly competitive. Our direct competition consists primarily of publicly and privately owned
companies which tend to be highly fragmented in terms of both geographical market coverage and product categories. These
companies compete with us on different levels in the development, manufacture and marketing of nutritional supplements. Many of
these companies have broader product lines and larger sales volume, are significantly larger than us, have greater name
recognition, financial, personnel, distribution and other resources than we do and may be better able to withstand volatile market
conditions. There can be no assurance that our customers and potential customers will regard our products as sufficiently
distinguishable from competitive products. Our inability to compete successfully would have a material adverse effect on our
business.
We operate in the fragmented and competitive telecom and infrastructure services industry. We compete with service providers
ranging from small regional companies, which service a single market, to larger firms servicing multiple regions, as well as large
national and multi-national contractors. We believe that we compete favorably with the other companies in the telecom and utility
infrastructure services industry.
Materials
Raw materials used in VLI's products consist of nutrient powders, excipients, adaptogens, empty capsules and necessary
components for packaging and distribution of finished nutritional and whole-food dietary supplements and personal care products.
We purchase the raw materials and empty capsules from manufacturers in the United States and foreign countries. Although we
purchase raw materials from reputable suppliers, we continuously evaluate samples, certificates of analysis, material safety data
sheets and the support research and documentation of both active and inactive ingredients. We have not experienced difficulty in
obtaining adequate sources of supply, and generally a number of suppliers are available for most raw materials. Although we cannot
assure that adequate sources will continue to be available, we believe we should be able to secure sufficient raw materials in the
future.
Generally, our telecom infrastructure services customers supply most or all of the materials required for a particular contract and we
provide the personnel, tools and equipment to perform the installation services. However, with respect to a portion of our contracts,
we may supply part or all of the materials required. In these instances, we are not dependent upon any one source for the materials
that we customarily utilize to complete the job. We are not presently experiencing, nor do we anticipate experiencing, any difficulties
in procuring an adequate supply of materials.
2005, GD has substantially reduced its level of activity on certain contracts under which it used SMC as a subcontractor. During
fiscal year 2006, we expect that GD will substantially increase its level of activity on certain contracts under which it uses SMC as a
subcontractor. The Federal Government, through our contract with GD, has been a major customer for three years. TVC and C have
been customers of VLI for five and two years, respectively, and accounted for 17% and 8% of consolidated net sales for the twelve
months ended January 31, 2005.
Backlog
At January 31, 2005, we had a backlog of $2.2 million for manufacturing nutraceutical products and $7.5 million to perform telecom
infrastructure services in the next year. At January 31, 2004, we had a backlog of $5 million to perform telecom infrastructure
services during fiscal year 2005.
Regulation
The formulation, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, advertising, distribution and sale of our products are subject to regulation by
one or more federal agencies, including the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the
Consumer Product Safety Commission, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Environmental Protection Agency, and also by
various agencies of the states, localities and foreign countries in which our products are sold. In particular, the FDA, pursuant to the
Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FDCA), regulates the formulation, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, distribution and sale of
dietary supplements, including vitamins, minerals and herbs, and of over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, while the FTC has jurisdiction to
regulate advertising of these products, and the Postal Service regulates advertising claims with respect to such products sold by mail
order. The FDCA has been amended several times with respect to dietary supplements, most recently by the Nutrition Labeling and
Education Act of 1990 and the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994. Our inability to comply with these federal
regulations may result in, among other things, injunctions, product withdrawals, recalls, product seizures, fines and criminal
prosecutions.
In addition, our products are also subject to regulations under various state and local laws that include provisions governing, among
other things, the formulation, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, advertising and distribution of dietary supplements and OTC drugs.
Our telecom infrastructure services operations are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations including: licensing
for contractors; building codes; permitting and inspection requirements applicable to construction projects; regulations relating to
worker safety and environmental protection; and special bidding, procurement and security clearance requirements on government
projects. Many state and local regulations governing construction require permits and licenses to be held by individuals who have
passed an examination or met other requirements. We believe that we have all the licenses required to conduct our operations and
that we are in substantial compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. Our failure to comply with applicable regulations could
result in substantial fines or revocation of our operating licenses

Customers
During the twelve months ended January 31, 2005, we provided nutritional and whole-food supplements as well as personal care
products to customers in the global nutrition industry and also services to telecommunications and utilities customers as well as to
the Federal Government, through a contract with General Dynamics Corp. (GD). Certain of our more significant customer
relationships are with Southern Maryland Electrical Cooperative (SMECO), GD, TriVita Corporation (TVC), and CyberWize.com, Inc.
(C). SMECO accounted for approximately 23% of consolidated net sales during the twelve months ended January 31, 2005. GD
accounted for approximately 14% of consolidated net sales during the twelve months ended January 31, 2005. During fiscal year

We are committed to ensuring that our nutraceutical products and telecom infrastructure services employees perform their work in a
safe environment. We regularly communicate with our employees to promote safety and to instill safe work habits. Our telecom

in procedures or communications to address any safety issues.

bodies begin breaking down long before that. That is because in today's 'man-made' environment, your immune system has
to constantly fend off far more toxins, pollutants, food additives, chemicals and other stress factors than nature designed it
for. Unless you constantly replenish your immune system with extra fuel, it remains dangerously overloaded year after year
and eventually begins to malfunction.
Limu Plus is unique nectar, based on a seaweed extract from the pristine waters of Tonga with Russian Adaptogens, that
can make a difference in your life!

Letter from a very satisfied customer and now a distributor.
This is right in line with numerous studies that are
beginning to point to the significant benefits of calcium.
CORAL CALCIUM!
Wow!
Well, we all know now about osteoporosis and bone support, blood vessels and circulation,
teeth and how important good quality calcium is for dealing with the above and more.
But I did not know that research says it might help with such things as colon cancer and
prolong your life in general! That just BLEW ME AWAY!
This whole Coral Calcium thing is IMPORTANT for every single woman and man on the
planet. So, please, read the following article and share it with everyone you care about or
who you know has any of the mentioned conditions and could profit from the below
information.
Enjoy! And let me know what you think, please.
With Love,
Katyusha
In the October 13, 1998 issue of the New York Times wrote an article appeared entitled
'Calcium Takes Its Place As a Superstar of Nutrients' in which it reports that a study
published in the Journal of the American Medical Association reported that 'increasing
calcium induced normal development of the epithelia cells and might also prevent cancer in
such organs as the breast, prostate and pancreas'.
It also reported that the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition published 'virtually no
major organ system escapes calcium's influence' and that a research team from the
University of Southern California found 'adding calcium to the diet lowered the blood
pressure in 110 black teenagers.'
The January 14, 1999 issue of the Phoenix Republic wrote an article about cancer entitled
'Calcium Reduces Tumors' that the New England Journal of Medicine reported 'adding
calcium to the diet can keep you from getting tumors in your large intestine'.
Then the February, 1999 issue of the Readers Digest wrote in an article entitled 'The
'Superstar Nutrient' that the Journal of the American Medical Association published 'when
the participants consumption reached 1500 milligrams of calcium a day, cell growth in the
colon improved toward normal (this means that the cancer was reversed)'.
Once again, Enjoy! And stay HEALTHY and HAPPY!
The Digest also reported that the Metabolic Bone Center at St. Lukes Hospital believes that
'a chronic deficiency of calcium is largely responsible for premenstrual syndrome (PMS)'
and that 'a lot of women are avoiding the sun and their vitamin-D
levels may be very low.'
====================================
-- The Okinawan Centenarian Study
Here's the link to the Okinawa study, followed by a brief summary and some additional stuff
I've run across about calcium:
For more, go here:
http://www.okinawaprogram.com
http://www.okinawaprogram.com
According to The Okinawan Centenarian Study, every city, town, and village In Okinawa has
a family register system (koseki) that has been recording reliable birth, marriage, and death
statistics since 1879.
Life tables calculated from this database show one of the world's highest concentrations of
centenarians (living to be a hundred years or older) and likely the world's longest life
expectancy for any country or state.
After examining over six hundred Okinawan centenarians and numerous 'youngsters' in
their seventies, eighties, and nineties, the researchers saw certain patterns begin to
emerge.
It became clear that the Okinawan lifestyle was providing some real, scientifically verifiable
reasons these people were so incredibly healthy so far into their senior years. And they
were reasons that could have a profound impact on our health and well-being here in the
West.
Among the reasons for their longevity of life and overall health cited by the study was 'the
high calcium intake by Okinawans in both food and their natural drinking water.' The coral
calcium in their water has played a key role.

WHAT IS VITA ENHANCED WATER?
Vita Enhanced Water is Vitacorp International's proprietary "catalyst altered water"
formulation. It includes purified deionized water, sodium metasilicate, castor oil, calcium chloride and
magnesium sulfate. When this specialized blend is added to purified or distilled water (must have the
heavy metals like lead removed), a micelle is created which in turn creates the catalyst that impacts the
molecular structure of the water. A micelle is a very small, high energy atomic particle that has a very
powerful negative magnetic field. This creates what we call a "wetter" water by lowering the surface
tension of the water molecule.
This "wetter" water is considered a surfactant agent, which is capable of increasing a substance’s
absorbability--this is why you are directed to tell your physician or health care professional that you are
taking the Vita Enhanced Water and medications at the same time. The "wetter water" creates a more
efficient nutrient delivery system within the body and allows waste materials to be carried away from the
cells more efficiently--CREATING THE OPPORTUNITY FOR BETTER HEALTH.
Water is essential to life. Every biochemical process in the body depends on it. Vita Enhanced Water
through its molecular and alkalizing impact simply creates an "improved" water with an alkaline pH which
allows the body to seek the proper pH level and electrolyte balance. This allows for improved biological
function, which contributes to overall better health.
. . . and that is without sponsoring a single affiliate!
VITA ENHANCED WATER--BETTER WATER FOR BETTER HEALTH
Just think of what your bonuses could be if you sponsored just a few of these customers as
affiliates?

Can losing weight be as simple as picking the right appetizer? It can… with the Appetizer Diet!
The Appetizer Diet is a breakthrough beverage that helps reduce your cravings for
fattening foods. It’s a simple, one-step solution to meet your weight management goals. Try it today and
taste the difference.
Two Powerful Forms of Calcium
Every day, your body per forms functions that rely on calcium for success. Calcium is essential to good health. That’s why more and more
people are searching for an effective calcium supplement. Vitacorp’s Coral Calcium+ with EnZact 77k™ is the answer. This exclusive
formula delivers two powerful forms of calcium: coral calcium and amino acid chelate calcium from eggshell.
What does it taste like? How does it work?
The Appetizer Diet shake has a delicious fruit punch flavor, and each glass is only 80 calories. Drink a
shake about 30-45 minutes before your meal as an “appetizer,” and you will experience the benefits
when you eat! Your cravings are reduced, you feel fuller for longer, and you feel satisfied with fewer
calories.
How It Works
Why does coral have such a reputation as a health supplement able to deliver numerous health improvements? Coral contains high
amounts of calcium and virtually every mineral found in the human body—and in similar proportions as those found in the human body,
too. We cannot always get the minerals from our food source. In fact, much of the soil used in food production is mineral depleted.
Coral minerals may be one of the most effective ways to put minerals into the blood because of the high absorbability of the minerals. Coral minerals
are a full spectrum, organic, ionic, synergistic blend of seventy-four minerals.
What’s the secret?
There’s no secret, just solid science. The Appetizer Diet taps into the latest research on the weight
management benefits of soy, soy protein and fiber. It takes advantage of consumer research, too: people
are tired of elaborate, overly-complicated diets. They want a simple, convenient answer to their needs.
That’s what the Appetizer Diet delivers.
Trying to manage your weight and balance a busy schedule? Even when you’re doing the right things—like exercise, eating the
right foods, and taking the right supplements—you still need that extra something to bring it all together. Now, all it takes is
adding an appetizer to every meal: the Appetizer Diet!

Coral Calcium
Our coral calcium is harvested from eco-friendly “above sea” sources in Okinawa. Many experts believe that the longevity of the people of Okinawa
can be traced to the water they drink—rich in calcium and other minerals thanks to being filtered through the coral beds. We archaeologically harvest
only the pristine white coral heads in an ecologocially sound process that does not touch or alter the fragile state of the coral reefs and ocean
environment. After it is collected, the coral is ground to a micron size to facilitate absorption and then purified.
Amino Acid Chelate Calcium
Our amino acid chelate calcium is processed from eggshell using a chemicalfree, patented process that produces custom particle sizes for maximum
absorption! The resulting amino acid chelate contains more than a dozen amino acids, including Glutamic Acid, Proline, Lysine, Valine, Threonine,
Leucine, Isoleucine, Tyrosine, Aspartic Acid, Arginine and Alanine. In fact, the quality of our amino acid chelated eggshell calcium is so high that it
meets the tough leadfree requirements of California’s Proposition 65.

Helps to Prevent Cancer of the Breast, Prostate, Colon and Uterus (Endometrium)
Several recent scientific studies have shown that a regular intake of traditional soy foods may help to prevent breast
cancer, prostate cancer and colon cancer. One recent study related to soy products and prostate cancer determined that:
"...soy products were found to be significantly protective ... with an effect size per kilocalorie at
least four times as large as that of any other dietary factor."
Researchers believe that the cancer protective effects from soy are due to the group of plant chemicals known as
isoflavones, particularly genistein and daidzein. It is theorized that these isoflavones prevent cancer by inhibiting the
growth of existing tumor cells (as opposed to preventing the development of tumor cells).
One epidemiological study showed that individuals who had high amounts of soy isoflavones measured in their urine
(signifying that they had a regular intake of soy foods) had approximately one-half the breast cancer risk of those who had
low amount of measured soy isoflavones in their urine.

Colon cancer rates (like breast and prostate cancers) are very low in countries with higher intakes of traditional soy
products. Controlled scientific research related to soy products and colon cancer is still in the preliminary stages. One
study in Hawaii found that vegetable fiber and certain vegetables and legumes (including soy products) help to lower the
risk of colon cancer.
One study in Hawaii found soy product intake associated with lower risk of endometrial cancer. However, the effecs of soy
and legumes were limited to women who had never been pregnant and never used estrogens. Other aspects of the diet
lowered the risk as well, including vegetables grains, sea vegetables, and fruits.
Helps to Prevent Heart Disease
It is known that in countries were traditional soy products are ingested regularly, the rates of cardiovascular diseases is
low. There is some research that suggests that soy foods may help to prevent heart disease by reducing total cholesterol,
low density lipoprotein cholesterol, blood pressure and possibly preventing plaque buildup in the arteries (atherosclerosis).
It is believed that the isoflavones from soy foods are the primary factors involved in these beneficial health effects.

May Help to Prevent Osteoporosis
BREAKTHROUGH SERVICES
One cup of tofu contain approximately 20% (204 mg) of the U.S. Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for calcium
intake (1000 mg) for adults 19-50 years old. Tempeh contains approximately 15% (154 mg) of the RDA. Soy Milk is not
quite as good a source of calcium according to the USDA nutrient charts. In most countries, calcium intake is well below
the RDA figures and there are little problems with osteoporosis largely because of the regular physical activity (esp.
weight-bearing exercise) in these countries. Therefore, a moderate intake of soy products such as tempeh and tofu along
with regular exercise may help prevent osteoporosis.
Another factor in the possible effectiveness of soy to prevent osteoporosis may be its content of the group of plant
chemicals known as Isoflavones. Several studies have suggested that the isoflavones in soy products may be a factor in
helping to prevent bone loss. In fact, one study in animals showed that soy intake may be as extremely effective in
suppression of bone loss. However, preliminary results from human studies appear to indicate that the benefit may not be
as great in humans.

Recent studies actually verify these phenomenona. Japanese
scientists have isolated a substance in Limu Moui that
promotes healthy living, seems to slow down the aging
process, and fights a myriad of diseases. This substance is
called fucoidan. A large number of recent scientific studies
have shown fucoidan fights against cancer formation,
development, and growth. Other research also indicates that
fucoidan can be used for many other ailments common in
today’s world.
The Adaptogenic Breakthrough
Welcome to our web site!
On this home page, we'll introduce our business and highlight important
areas on our site.
THE ORIGINAL LIMU PLUS WITH RUSSIAN ADAPTOGENS
Vitacorp is proud to introduce Limu Plus .We have taken the
pure goodness of Tongan Limu Moui and charged it with
additional advanced Russian Adaptogens to create the premier
limu product on the market.* Others offer limu moui
supplements, but only Vitacorp offers Limu Plus—the best of
nature and science combined!
Here we may display a picture of
this month's feature:
"NEW" THE BEST OF
NATURE AND SCIENCE
COMBINED!
One of nature’s health secrets has been discovered in the
waters off the coast of the Pacific island of Tonga. Here in this
lush tropical paradise, untouched by industry and unspoiled by
pollution, natives have known the energizing benefits of the
sea plant they call limu moui.*
They found that when an individual was stressed, their adrenal
gland produced a hormone in excess called cortisol. Cortisol is
highly toxic and attacked muscle mass, attacked the organs,
diminished their strength, recovery time was longer and their
focus was reduced.
Fucoidan
Limu Moui has been a vital source of food and commerce for
many coastal peoples. Not surprisingly, some of these people
credit the plant for their long lives. Many Tongans, for instance,
stay robust, full of life and vigor, without suffering the effects of
disease normally associated with aging. If you were to ask for
their secret, chances are the Tongan people would direct you
to Limu Moui as the reason for their good health.
Here's How It Works
In Japan, sea plant dishes like kombu and wakame are well
known, but a lesser known dish call mozuku shares a common
characteristic with Limu Moui. The people in the regions of
Japan where mozuku is used enjoy longer lives and lower
incidences of cancer when compared to counterparts in other
parts of Japan.
INTESTINES: 60% of our
immune system resides in
our intestine and 80 to 90%
of those who suffer from
intestinal problems also have
allergies. If you "fix" the

Adaptogen Formula
They put 1,200 scientists to the task. They conducted over
3,000 studies with 500,000 people. Their research went on for
45 years.
But Limu moui is no ordinary plant. In addition to being packed
with the vitamins, minerals and other life-giving substances
that have made kelp such a health food staple, limu moui is
particularly rich in Fucoidan, which according to research may
lend extraordinary support to the body’s immune functions.*
Supplemental
Simply put, limu moui is an “adaptogenic” plant. Adaptogens
are a rare class of plant first identified by Russian scientists in
their quest for the key to improved human performance.
According to these researchers, they help restore the body’s
overall capacity for exertion and resistance to stress.* As more
people in the West learn about this exciting science, the
interest in advanced adaptogens increases.
Recognizing the adaptogenic potential of limu moui, Vitacorp
asked the question, what would happen if we reinforced this
traditional Tongan source of Fucoidan with a complex of
advanced adaptogens?* The answer was a breakthrough
product like no other!
During the mid 1950’s the Soviet government chartered their
Academy of Sciences with the task to develop a product that
would enhance the performance of their elite (i.e. Olympic
athletes, Bolshoi Ballet, World Class Chess Players, and
Cosmonauts). They had three key criteria. The product had to
be totally non-toxic to human cells, help abnormal unhealthy
cells get back to a healthy state and to help the body adapt to
stress.

The scientists went to work and decoded thousands of plants.
They found 12 very rare plants in the far eastern Russian area
called the Primorye. These plants would provide the basis for
achieving their three objectives as well as control the excess
production of cortisol. They coined the term “ADAPTOGEN” for
those plants. Their elite were mandated to take the adaptogen
extract every day. One of their studies was with an automobile
factory with 4,000 workers. They had a very high incidence of
absenteeism due to sickness. Over a 7 year period they
reduced their absenteeism by 92.5%. If you took all the

Limu Moui is very beneficial
to the digestive system.
CHOLESTEROL: Cholesterol is
made in the liver, so if you
can keep the liver clean it will
help with cholesterol. Limu
Moui helps in the cleaning of
the liver.
CANCER: Limu Moui helps
make cancer cells pop (selfdestruct) and stop cell
division. The Harvard School
of Public Health says:
"Fucoidan in Limu Moui
reduces plasma cholesterol
and the building of
dangerous steroids in breast
tissue."
BLOOD SUGAR: Fucoidan
coats the GI system, helping
guard against blood sugar
problems.
ARTHRITIS: Limu Moui
lubricates joints and helps
with pain of arthritis.
BLOOD PRESSURE: Limu
Moui addresses all three
areas that affect blood
pressure, for which people
normally have to take
different medications.
MOOD DISORDERS: Mood
disorders are affected by
essential fatty acid
deficiency, which is
replenished by Limu Moui.

Russian Adaptogens to

VitaMark offers Limu Plus—the best of nature and science combined!
The secret of Limu Moui
One of nature’s health secrets has been discovered in the waters off the
coast of the Pacific island of Tonga. Here in this lush tropical paradise,
untouched by industry and unspoiled by pollution, natives have known the
energizing benefits of the sea plant they call limu moui.*

They found that when an individual was stressed, their adrenal gland
produced a hormone in excess called cortisol. Cortisol is highly toxic and
attacked muscle mass, attacked the organs, diminished their strength,
recovery time was longer and their focus was reduced. It also diminishes
the immune system.
such a health food staple, limu moui is particularly rich in Fucoidan,
which according to research may lend extraordinary support to the body’s
immune functions.*
Fucoidan
The scientists went to work and decoded thousands of plants. They
found 12 very rare plants in the far eastern Russian area called the
Primorye. These plants would provide the basis for achieving their three
objectives as well as control the excess production of cortisol. They
coined the term “ADAPTOGEN” for those plants. Their elite were
mandated to take the adaptogen extract every day. One of their studies
was with an automobile factory with 4,000 workers. They had a very high
incidence of absenteeism due to sickness. Over a 7 year period they
reduced their absenteeism by 92.5%. If you took all the Olympic athletes
in the 1996 Olympics that were taking the adaptogen formula and made
them a country, they would have come in 4th overall.
Limu Moui has been a vital source of food and commerce for many
coastal peoples. Not surprisingly, some of these people credit the plant
for their long lives. Many Tongans, for instance, stay robust, full of life
and vigor, without suffering the effects of disease normally associated
with aging. If you were to ask for their secret, chances are the Tongan
people would direct you to Limu Moui as the reason for their good health.
In Japan, sea plant dishes like kombu and wakame are well known, but a
lesser known dish call mozuku shares a common characteristic with Limu
Moui. The people in the regions of Japan where mozuku is used enjoy
longer lives when compared to counterparts in other parts of Japan.
We have formulated a new product that will address the worldwide stress
level. This product has a nucleus of the 6 most powerful adaptogens
blended with Limu Moui, aloe vera, enzymes, minerals and many other
nutrients. You take 1 ounce per day of the formula.
The Adaptogenic Breakthrough
Simply put, limu moui is an “adaptogenic” plant. Adaptogens are a rare
class of plant first identified by Russian scientists in their quest for the key
to improved human performance. According to these researchers, they
help restore the body’s overall capacity for exertion and resistance to
stress.* As more people in the West learn about this exciting science, the
interest in advanced adaptogens increases.
Recognizing the adaptogenic potential of limu moui, VitaMark asked the
question, what would happen if we reinforced this traditional Tongan
source of Fucoidan with a complex of advanced adaptogens?* The
answer was a breakthrough product like no other!
Professional baseball, football, hockey, soccer, track, and karate stars
have been quietly taking the product for decades. We are now taking it to
the masses in this new formula.
The Highest Standards
To create a breakthrough like Limu Plus demands the highest standard of
raw material and manufacture. Working with our friends at Vitarich
Laboratories, the leading manufacturer of high quality nutritional
supplements in the world, VitaMark delivers the best!
Adaptogen Formula
During the mid 1950’s the Soviet government chartered their Academy of
Sciences with the task to develop a product that would enhance the
performance of their elite (i.e. Olympic athletes, Bolshoi Ballet, World
Class Chess Players, and Cosmonauts). They had three key criteria.
The product had to be totally non-toxic to human cells, help abnormal
unhealthy cells get back to a healthy state and to help the body adapt to
stress.
Our limu moui is harvested by hand to make sure that only the best
material is selected, and that the process is friendly to the Tongan
ecosystem. Then it is carefully processed to preserve its beneficial
essence. Our adaptogenic plants are selectively harvested at the exact
point during the growing season to insure peak potential, and then, to
harness their potency, they are processed by experts with more than 30
years experience.
They put 1,200 scientists to the task. They conducted over 3,000 studies
with 500,000 people. Their research went on for 45 years.

Why Heaven Had to Wait
By Donna L. Eubank
(Publication date: October 1, 2004; ISBN 0-9651783-9-0;
Price $13.99; 206 pages)
Donna Eubank ignored the first deep prompting to jump in the family car and pick up
her husband and son. “No, I’m going to wait about fifteen more minutes,” she told
herself, not realizing that God was telling her to go. Minutes later she heard these
words: ‘Get in the car and go!’ ” A few blocks from her home she discovered what
the gnawing urgency was about. Both her son and her husband had been hit by a
drunken hit-and-run driver, as they were bicycling home. Her husband was not
seriously injured, but her five-year-old son had been crushed under the car. Death
knocked at their door time and again, but heaven had to wait.

Due to recent publishing’s of research, hypothecations, and misinformation regarding
both the “Original Limu” and “Limu Plus” branded products, our company was
contracted to provide third party investigative analytical documentation evidencing the
elemental and active content of these two nutritional supplements.
Reportedly a polysaccharide known as “Fucoidan” is a key, essential nutrient naturally
occurring within Limu Moui Extract. Limu Moui Extract originates from an angel hair
style algae popular in the Republic of Tonga and related regions. This wild-crafted algae,
in its extracted form, has shown great benefit as a nutritional supplement. The nutritional
results of the extract have been marketed over time as a Fucoidan-containing food
concentrate and a natural food source of a multitude of aquatic nutrients.

Limu Plus vs. Original Limu
A Research Summary
Globally, there are very few companies that have the equipment, knowledge, and
technologies available to accurately test and measure these finite nutritive compounds.
We located and employed the services of North Texas Research Laboratory (a division of
North Texas Medical Associates) and requested Dr. Danhof (Ph.D, M.D.) to perform a
nutritional analysis focusing its emphasis on Fucoidans.

12.031%**
On May 19, 2004, a bench chemist by the name of R.H. Molony published his
microscopic examination, product comparison, and comments on the two brands using a
test procedure referred to in his report “Methylene Blue precipitation.” This test, when
published in the 1930’s, was the best method available at the time; with today’s advances
in science and technology – and using researchers with advanced knowledge, capabilities,
and degrees specifically in this type of research – a more accurate and reliable platform
of information is attainable and defendable.
The attached Certificates of Analysis accurately validate the existence and potency of
Fucoidans in both brands. First, it is important to note that both brands have a
substantially higher level of Fucoidan using “Size-Exclusion Chromatography” than that
found on the May 19 report from Molab Ltd. Second, the verified confirmation of the
Polysaccharide Fucoidan in the two brands, as well as the raw material extract from
Tonga are as follows:
*Including preservatives (if any), additives, and insoluble sediment
**Including preservatives and additives, but with insoluble sediment removed

Third, the final content comparison of Fucoidan shows the Limu Plus brand to be 8.6%
higher than the Original Limu brand. And last, this comparison identifies identical
molecular structure in size and characteristic to all three test groups.

Limu Plus - Analysis
This evidence discredits the opinion that one brand is in an insoluble form (as commented
on by Molab), or that there may be a bioavailability difference between the two brands.
The bioavailability is identical, yet the bioactivity of the Limu Plus brand is 8.6% higher.
Furthermore, these tests prove the unreliability and limitations of archaic testing
methodologies and that advanced nutritional properties require advanced nutritional
testing technologies.
In closing, there is a variety of other pertinent information published in Dr. Danhof’s
(Ph.D, M.D.) tests that also shows higher contents and nutritional values in the Limu Plus
brand. It is important to note that adaptogenic activity was not tested as the Original
Limu label does not report its inclusion and other nutritional values and compounds were
not tested at this time. This test was performed at the direct response to the May 19
circular to help alleviate any possible confusion or misunderstanding.
Limu Plus packs more Fucoidan and is more bioactive than
its competitors -- and we have the science to prove it!
Vitarich Laboratories manufactures Limu Plus. When
asked which of the products was superior, Vitarich
commissioned state-of-the-art testing that ranked Limu
Plus on top. Now you can access the scientific findings for
yourself.

Recently, your business may have been offered and/or shipped counterfeit Biotec Foods, Biomed
Foods or Biovet International dietary supplement or animal feed supplement products by
individuals doing business as “Fahey Pharms” in Sarasota, Florida. Please be aware that Fahey
Pharms is not affiliated with Biotec Foods, Biomed Foods or Biovet International, which are
trademarks owned by Agrigenic Food Corporation in Huntington Beach, Ca. Although we have
prosecuted this matter through the Federal Court system, and indeed these individuals have already been
permanently ordered to cease and desist from this confusing, fraudulent scheme to disrupt our business
relationships, customer feedback and other evidence indicates that they do not intend to comply with the
court order and have continued to deceive and defraud our customers, with the intent to disguise the true
origin of their counterfeit products. The United States District Court for the Central District of
California (Case Number 99cv2283) will address these continued violation during a scheduled
(December, 2004.) contempt hearing. If you received counterfeit products under false pretenses, you
are a victim of fraud and you should move quickly to recover your money. If possible, please contact
your bank or credit card company and cancel any credit card charges that appear as BIOVET,
Peoria IL. Or BIOVET INC. Sarasota, FL. Stop payment orders may be issued against checks
issued to FAHEY PHARMS, Sarasota, FL. Return or refuse any products recently delivered to you by
“Fahey Pharms.” Contact the FDA if you wish to file a complaint. (http://www.fda.gov) If you wish
to provide a statement or any other evidence to assist us in prosecuting this matter, please contact me at
this office.
No matter what they say, we are NOT partnered with, or related to William Fahey or
Fahey Pharms or anyone else in Sarasota, Florida. Furthermore, the FAHEYS have no
legal right to infringe on our trademarks.

About 3 - 4 weeks ago I spoke to a person from The Enzyme Company, I called Agrigenics and don't know how I end up with
this person from the Enzyme Company, I believe by the name of Jackson. He told me that the Enzyme Company was now
handling the Wheat Sprout, that it was the same product but the company changed its name to The Enzyme Company and the
new address was 3434 North Tamiami Trail Suite 805, Sarasota, FL 34234 Tel 1800-488-3899 or 1800-704-7537 fax 941-3589133. He mentioned that the manufacturer was Biopharms and the product name was Primative Sprout Complex but that it was
the same as Wheat Sprout.

AiO founder Kehl out of jail, hopes to
repay investors
Next Filing
No Events
No Name History Information
By LAURA LAYDEN, [email protected]
January 29, 2005
Michael Kehl has landed back on his feet in Naples.
Document Images
Listed below are the images available for this filing.
Nearly two years ago, Kehl admitted to swindling investors in his Naples-based
company out of millions of dollars. After serving 85 percent of his prison sentence,
he's returned to Collier County to live with his son, Christopher.
08/23/2004 -- Domestic Profit
THIS IS NOT OFFICIAL RECORD; SEE DOCUMENTS IF QUESTION OR CONFLICT
Kehl, 55, lives quietly in Saturnia Lakes, a gated development off Immokalee
Road. He hopes to blend into the community. He declined an interview for this
story, saying his attorney advised against it.
Nearly two years ago,
Michael Kehl admitted in
a Collier County
courtroom to swindling
investors in the Naplesbased AiO Technologies
Inc. out of millions of
dollars.
Kehl founded the now-defunct AiO Technologies Inc.
Through AiO, Kehl marketed a computerized system for handling food orders by phone.
State investigators charged that most of the money raised for the company went into Kehl's own pockets, not
into the development of the technology. They said Kehl used the money he raised selling the company's stock
to support a lavish lifestyle that included fancy cars, boats and vacation homes.
Since getting out of prison Nov. 26, Kehl has found a job. His new boss, Kevin Thomas, said he's a changed
man and that he's eager to start paying back investors, though he's on a starting salary as he learns the ropes.
He said Kehl deserves a "fresh start, a healthy clean start."
Kehl works for Naples-based Biotech Analytical Laboratories, a private company that describes itself as a
policing agency for the dietary supplement industry.
His plea deal requires him to give up at least 25 percent of his monthly wages to pay back investors in AiO.
He's supposed to pay back at least $3.7 million, if he can make that kind of money again.
"He could hit the lottery," quipped Gerard McHale, the court-appointed receiver for AiO who has for years
scraped to find money to pay back investors with little luck.
"It might be good from a feel-good position saying that the individual has to make restitution," he added. "But
the truth be known there is a big difference between the court ordering it and it actually being done."
Mary Bauer, circuit administrator for the Florida Department of Corrections in Fort Myers, said there are plans
to set up monetary accounts for Kehl to pay back court costs, and the victims who lost money in AiO.
She said she's not sure how the accounts will be set up since he owes such a large amount of money to so many
people. There were more than 600 investors in AiO.

"There needs to be a restitution order for the court that says specifically who gets what," she said. "I don't
believe we have that yet, and I don't have it before me."

Florida from Virginia.
Thomas even invested and lost money in AiO.
Before he headed off to the Okeechobee Correctional Institute in March 2003, Kehl was forced to give up
everything that belonged to him, including his Naples home and anything in it, as part of his restitution. But
that didn't add up to much.
His plea agreement carried a 15-year prison sentence, but most of that was suspended to allow him to go back
to work so he could start paying back AiO investors.
But Thomas, 44, said he's willing to forgive and forget.
"I didn't lose too much," he said. "I don't look at it as a loss. I look at it as an investment in a relationship that
has an opportunity to continue to grow."
Thomas said Kehl met "like-minded Christians" in prison who helped guide his new thinking.
Kehl spent less than two years in prison, with the gain time he earned sitting in the Collier County jail.
He had a few disciplinary problems in prison, including lying to staff about making a call from the chaplain's
office to ask about work release and using another inmate's identification number to make a call outside prison,
according to Florida Department of Corrections records. He also refused to take a random drug test.
Without these violations, Kehl could have earned more time off his sentence.
Though Kehl is out of prison, he's still watched closely. For the next 10 years he's on community control, a
highly restrictive state supervision program. That will be followed by probation until 2029.
"He's a much different person now," Thomas said. "He's very relaxed, very focused. His mission right now is to
make the capital to make restitution."
Long ago, someone believed in Thomas and that's how he got where he is today.
"People put faith in me and I want to pass on that thinking that everybody deserves a chance, everyone should
get an opportunity," Thomas said.
Kehl is hooked up to a global positioning system, or GPS, that allows his parole officer to see his every move.
Two decades ago, a Naples millionaire took Thomas, then 20, under his wing and showed him the ropes in the
dietary supplement business. Today, Thomas owns several successful companies including Vitarich
Laboratories in Naples, a public company that rakes in more than $14 million in annual revenues.
"The way the GPS works is it has inclusion and exclusion zones," said Sterling Ivey, a Florida Department of
Corrections spokesman. "If he goes outside the zone, he's ratted out. His parole officer gets immediate
notification that he is outside his zone and we can call and check on him."
Vitarich develops, researches and manufactures everything from chewable B-12 capsules to vitamin-packed
powders such as Green Vibrance. Vitarich recently became public through a merger with Maryland-based
Argan Inc. to continue its rapid growth.
With community control, a curfew normally is enforced, he said.
Thomas said Kehl isn't working for Vitarich because that would put him too close to the sale of stock.
"It just allows for a more concentrated effort of supervising the offender," Ivey said. "The probation officers
that are supervising a community control caseload generally have a smaller caseload so they can spend more
time supervising the offender in the community."
Kehl's agreement with the state prevents him from being involved in selling any type of securities. In his plea
agreement, he admitted to selling unlicensed securities in AiO. He's never held a license in Florida to sell
securities, and that's what in part brought him down.
Typically, offenders on community control must provide a weekly schedule to their probation officers. Any
trips outside of work have to be approved by the probation officer, Ivey said.
Thomas said he has good reason to believe in Kehl. The two built a company called Biogenetics Food Corp., a
healthy foods business in Naples. Kehl took over the company as president and then sold it.
Kehl doesn't have the typical 9-to-5 job. That's part of the reason for having him hooked up to a GPS.
"He stayed on with the company as a director after he sold it, and he almost tripled the business for the buyer,"
Thomas said.
At Biotech Analytical Laboratories, Kehl is working as a personal assistant to owner Kevin Thomas as he
learns the ropes of a new industry.
Thomas said Kehl is "positioning himself for new opportunity."
Not everyone is as confident in Kehl as Thomas.
In other words, he's expected to move up in the company. He's being groomed to become a salesman.
Mike LaPine, a Realtor with Naples Brokers Realty who sold Kehl's Naples home while he was in prison, said
he doesn't think Kehl has changed at all. From prison, LaPine said he received several angry phone calls from
Kehl, who was unhappy that he didn't get any of the money from the sale of his home.
"He's really at a basic hourly wage to get his feet wet, to get educated in the industry. His opportunity is
developing new markets," Thomas said.
"He wrote me a letter that someone had profited $200,000 from the sale of the house and that he wanted me to
pay him the money," LaPine said.
Biotech checks vitamins and other vitamin supplements to make sure they meet federal guidelines and
manufacturers' claims. It's a 3-year-old company with a handful of employees.
Eventually, LaPine said he stopped taking Kehl's calls. He said he didn't get a commission from the sale
because there were liens on the property, and that he kept the mortgage company from foreclosing on it.
Thomas and Kehl actually have known each other for about 20 years. They met in Naples when Kehl moved to
LaPine said he hopes he's heard the last from Kehl.

He hopes to see Kehl blend back into the community. He said he's not surprised that Kehl returned to Naples.
"He has family in the area," he said. "I guess I assumed Naples was where he would go back to when he was
released."
