Upper Deck Scores Legal Victory Against Topps

Sports Card Company Firmly Denies Topps’ Allegations of Any Wrong-Doing


North Las Vegas, NV, Wednesday April 15, 2009

The Upper Deck Company won a legal victory today when a New York judge denied a Temporary Restraining Order sought by Topps to prevent the release of 2009 Upper Deck Series Two and 2009 O-Pee-Chee baseball card products.

Yesterday, the Topps Company filed a lawsuit against Upper Deck claiming copyright infringement. Upper Deck strongly denies the allegations and did, in fact, do its due diligence when researching, clearing and securing approvals to use the card designs. Upper Deck received necessary legal approvals and proper protocol was followed to ensure there were no infringements.

�Based on the tactics utilized by Topps thus far, Upper Deck questions the validity of this claim,� said Bernd Becker, Upper Deck�s vice president of Trading Cards. �We strongly disagree with the allegations. In today�s challenging economic environment, it seems petty and counterproductive to file such a frivolous suit.�
