On January 11, 2010, we received the following confirmation letters from Counsel in Washington, D.C.:
RE: U.S. Patent Application No. 12/644,970 filed December 22, 2009
"In accordance with your instructions, we filed the above-referenced application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on December 22, 2009. This application claims the benefit of U.S. provisional application no. 61/139,809, which was filed on December 22, 2008. We have received confirmation that the application has been assigned Application No. 12/644,970."
RE: New International (PCT) Application
Filed: December 22, 2009
Corresponding to U.S. Application No. 61/139,809
"We have received confirmation that the application has been assigned International Application No. PCT/US2009/069276"
In the next few weeks, all necessary legal documents signed by the five principal inventors of the SportsRiskIndex® (Systems and Methods for Risk Management of Sports-Associated Businesses) will be forwarded through counsel in Washington, D.C. to the United States Patent and Trademark Office and associated U.S. and International entities responsible for prosecution. That will complete this sequence.
The next expected action will be the publication of our applications. This is expected to take place during the Summer of 2010. At this point, the SportsRiskIndex® will be publicly disclosed and searchable online. Legal and binding settlement of valid AllSportsMarket® accounts via vesting in the invention will take place after this publication.
We continue to receive and field investment leads as they come in. As the overall world economic climate improves across 2010 and after publication of our U.S. Patent and International PCT applications, we expect our prospects to secure completion financing to improve substantially. The internal core team is fully dedicated to seeing this development through to full implementation on the global financial markets thereby birthing an entirely new industry and securing a handsome hard-earned return to our stakeholders.

On December 22, 2009 legal counsel in Washington, D.C.
successfully filed and confirmed the utility patent documentation for the
SportsRiskIndex® (Systems and Methods for Risk Management of Sports-Associated Businesses).
This application referenced the original provisional application 61/139,809
filed on December 22, 2008 and, with successful prosecution, will extend
intellectual property protection for an additional 19 years. The
SportsRiskIndex® will now continue under Patent Pending status while awaiting
release for prosecution from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office backlog queue
that currently extends several years.
On December 22, 2009, we also successfully completed the initial
international filing for the SportsRiskIndex® with the World Intellectual
Property Organization (http://www.wipo.int).
“The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) is a
specialized agency of the United Nations. It is dedicated to developing a
balanced and accessible international intellectual property (IP)
system, which rewards creativity, stimulates innovation and contributes to
economic development while safeguarding the public interest.WIPO was
established by the WIPO
Convention in 1967 with a mandate from its Member States to promote the
protection of IP throughout the world through cooperation among states and in
collaboration with other international organizations. Its headquarters are in
Geneva, Switzerland. The Director General is Francis Gurry.” (text directly from
WIPO website)
Our initial filing designated all 184 Member States (http://www.wipo.int/members/en/). In
18-30 months, we will revisit which national entry filings will be pursued.
This process with WIPO initiated the necessary legal protocols and processes
required to establish international protection beyond the bounds of all
protections offered by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in Washington, D.C.
We continue to receive and fulfill requests for the teleconference
archives and supporting documentation. If you are a valid AllSportsMarket®
accountholder (or interested party) or know someone who may be unaware of this
important disclosure, please forward this message. It is important to close
this legal process in order to determine the valid account pool and final
settlement mechanisms (as described in the documents) in order to vest our
stakeholders in the resulting SportsRiskIndex® (patent pending) product family
and future business enterprises. The prior emailed instructions have been
provided here:
"On Saturday August 29, 2009 at 10:00 A.M. U.S. E.D.T., the
ASM Trader Internet teleconference was held as scheduled. It lasted
approximately 2 hours. An extensive documentation package was provided to each
participant ahead of the call requesting submission of written questions to be
answered live. During the call, the floor was open for live
discussion, questions and follow-up. The conference concluded leaving no open
issues.
We will provide links to the document disclosure packages and a
live archive of the event itself to anyone who supplies the completed GSFE
disclosure documentation and executes a non-disclosure agreement. This
