MOLD ADVOCATE SLAPPED FOR LIBEL BY GLOBALTOX, INC.

VISTA, CA - Bruce J. Kelman, (Kelman) and GlobalTox, Inc.

(GlobalTox) vs. Sharon Kramer, (Kramer) and Does 1 through 20,

inclusive. Case # GIN 044539. Filed in the Superior Court of the

State of California for the County of San Diego, May 16, 2005.

Served on June 8, 2005.

As is required by California Code of Civil Procedures, 425.16,

registered by the defendant with the Judicial Council of the State

of California as a SLAPP suit (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public

Participation) on July 8, 2005.

Kelman and GlobalTox allege Kramer made a libelous accusation of

perjury when she wrote in a press release that Kelman " altered his

under oath statements " . Kramer states Kelman did in fact, " alter his

under oath statements " . The words " altering " and " perjury " are not

synonymous. Kramer contends Kelman is simply attempting to vex and

annoy for the purpose of hiding from the public, what she knows

about Kelman's and GlobalTox's business practices. And what she

knows about a paper Kelman authored, which is the Position Statement

of illnesses caused by mold in an indoor environment, of the

national medical policy-writing body, the American College of

Occupational and Environmental Medicine (ACOEM)...........
