Global Aircraft Solutions Announces Judgment Ordering the Return of 1,500,000 GACF Shares to the Company
Tucson, Ariz. – September 3, 2008—Global Aircraft Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: GACF) today announced The United States District Court, District of Arizona, has entered a Judgment for Global and Hamilton Aerospace. Defendants Corwin Foster and Seajay Holdings are ordered to return Global’s Stock Certificate No. 1178, in the amount of 1,500,000 shares to Interwest Transfer by September 5, 2008. The Court entered Judgment for Global and Hamilton Aerospace on causes of action for “Conversion” and “Unjust Enrichment”. The Court also awarded Plaintiffs its costs of $ 3,945.85.
Gordon Hamilton, CEO of Global Aircraft Solutions commented, “We are very pleased that we have finally been vindicated in our long struggle to win back 1,500,000 shares of our stock unjustly taken when the Company first acquired our wholly owned subsidiary, Hamilton Aerospace Technologies. We have also restructured our employment contracts with our key personnel in a way that ends the practice of issuing award shares to employees, and instead encourages those same employees to acquire GACF shares on the open market. These events are reflective of Management’s ongoing commitment to building share value.”
