CirTran Relieved of $1.4 Million in Royalties and Debt Obligations Involving Playboy Energy Drink in SettlementSALT LAKE CITY, Apr 09, 2013 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- CirTran Corporation (OTCBB: CIRC), an international contract manufacturer of energy beverages and consumer products, said today that it has been relieved of approximately $1.4 million in accrued royalties and other debt obligations claimed by former Play Beverages' partners involving Playboy Energy Drink line after a settlement. This settlement will improve CirTran's bottom line by that amount.CirTran President Iehab J. Hawatmeh said "the Play Beverages Parties," including Bev Group, LLC, CirTran Beverage Corporation, CirTran Corporation, Fadi Nora and himself, settled with "the LIB-MP parties," including LIB-MP Beverage, LLC, American Sales and Merchandising, LLC, and individuals Warner K. Depuy, Michael Liberty and Jeffrey Pollack.Under the agreement, the parties exchanged mutual general releases without payment by any party of any amounts to any other. Accordingly, Play Beverages Parties was relieved of the $1,375,618 payment obligation to the LIB-MP parties.Mr. Hawatmeh said that "the LIB-MP parties" had filed the petition that forced PlayBev into involuntary bankruptcy, but in December, 2012, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court (District of Utah) vacated the bankruptcy, freeing PlayBev to take legal actions to protect the product license granted for its Playboy Energy Drink.That was the first "three consecutive major legal victories for 'the Play Beverages Parties'," he said, setting the stage for this settlement. "Now we can go back to work to regain the momentum we had in establishing Playboy Energy Drink a 'player' in the international marketplace."Introduced in 2008, Playboy Energy Drink is manufactured and distributed exclusively by CirTran Beverage Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of CirTran Corporation under a product license from Playboy Enterprises to Play Beverages.
