Arena Racing USA and TagBrand Forge a "Preferred Licensing Agent" Agreement in the Pacific Northwest
Richmond, VA and Boise, ID (PRWEB) July 13, 2008 -- Arena Racing USA and TagBrand announced today the signing of a Master License Agreement. TagBrand was recently formed by a consortium whose combined capabilities are ideally suited to support Arena Racing USA as it emerges as a global, brand-driven media platform. TagBrand's executives include Paul Thornton, Cord Pereira and Brad Surkamer, who will also draw upon their established organizations including Thornton and Group, BrandEntertain and Closed Loop Marketing.
The agreement provides TagBrand the rights to market, sell and support licenses as a "Preferred Licensing Agent" within the Northwest USA, and non-exclusively in the United States. The parties also have executed a definitive terms sheet in May of this year which also provides for the launching of two licensed markets in 2009, an opportunity to make an equity investment in Arena Racing USA corporate, and provide ongoing strategic advisory services in designing the Arena Racing League's digital media platform and sponsorship models.
"We are excited about having an experienced sports team operator and event promoter to help roll out the Arena Racing League," stated Joe Gibbs of Joe Gibbs Racing, a NASCAR Team Owner. "The original investor group is excited about the potential of this agreement, it's new markets and what it brings to both Arena Racing USA and TagBrand," stated Gary Becker, former CEO of PACE Motor Sports.
"The Arena Racing model is an exciting and versatile entertainment property that has all the elements for sustained financial success in local communities," said Paul Thornton, co-manager of TagBrand. Thornton points to low ticket prices, lower operating costs, year-round race scheduling and grassroots promotion and engagement by race teams and drivers, as key elements for affordable family entertainment.
"It is always exciting for me to see the vision of Arena Racing USA being fulfilled through these partnerships," stated Ricky Dennis, Founder and League President. "We are very excited about the agreement reached with the TagBrand partnership, not only does it strengthen our belief in the Arena Racing USA business model and League, but it will add to our execution capabilities and provide the basis for development of the other business model elements in our digital media platform," stated Bob Keane, CEO of Arena Racing USA.
"Arena Racing is not only exciting for fans, it's unique indoor format represents a new promotional channel for racing brand sponsors to extend their national message right into local, grassroots programs," said Cord Pereira, co-manager of TagBrand. "For a racing brand sponsor, Arena Racing connects the dots between national and local to reach consumers in an additive way."
Arena Racing USA consists of an exceptional investor group of Joe Gibbs of Joe Gibbs Racing, Tom and Norm Miller of Interstate Batteries, Gary Becker formerly of PACE Entertainment and operating leadership of Bob Keane, CEO and Ricky Dennis the founder of Arena Racing USA.
