Karch Kiraly Signs AVP Player Agreement <br> We are
pleased to announce that Karch Kiraly has signed his<br>
AVP Player Agreement. Karch was instrumental in
achieving<br> many of the concessions made to the players as
contained<br> in the Addendum (including the increase of over
$1 million in<br> guaranteed prize money) and was
extremely helpful in<br> making our acquisition of the AVP
a reality. While Karch did<br> not officially meet
the Friday deadline, Karch publicly<br> indicated his
support of our acquisition last Thursday and<br>
reiterated his intention to sign on Friday. The only reason
that<br> he did not sign his contract by the deadline was
because his<br> agents were unavailable to review the
Agreement and<br> Addendum in time. The agents reviewed the
contract this<br> weekend and Karch has signed the exact
same contract (and<br> Addendum) as each the other
players. There are no side<br> deals with Karch or any
other player.<br> Karch has raised a few points that we
are going to address<br> over the next several days.
If we agree to any of his<br> suggested changes,
they will be incorporated into a second<br> Addendum
that will be incorporated into each of the AVP<br>
Player Agreements.<br> ~Andy Reif, Chief Operating

Playoffs, once again a leader has<br> stepped up to help
save the day<br> for beach volleyball fans
everywhere.Kudos to KK."<br> Unca Nick
