 and wellness products, today announced that Cutwater, an integrated San
 Francisco- based advertising company has been named agency of record for

 healthy beverage, FRS(R).
     After a three month agency search process, The FRS Company selected
 Cutwater to generate creative concepts and integrated programs that will
 drive consumers to FRS' unique healthy energy products. Key factors that
 led to Cutwater's selection included their strong iconic campaign
 development credentials, interactive capabilities and out-of-the box
 thinking.
     "The depth and expertise in ground breaking, high impact creative
 campaigns for image driven brands makes Cutwater a perfect fit for FRS to
 help us further educate and motivate people to seek healthier ways to boost
 their energy," said Maigread Eichten, CEO and president, the FRS Company.
 "We are thrilled to embark on collaborative endeavors with Cutwater to
 accelerate the rapid growth of the FRS brand and bring our message of
 healthy energy in an innovative, positive way that will impact the American

     "What a great opportunity FRS presented to us -- the chance to create
 dynamic campaigns around such a relevant and innovative product is a rare
 occasion," said Brad Harrington, president, Cutwater. "It's about time
 someone gave us a healthy energy drink that really delivers, and we won't
 feel guilty about consuming it."
     The new advertising agency is charged with developing a breakthrough
 campaign to establish FRS as the market leader in the emerging healthy
 energy drink category and communicate FRS's high level of competitive
 differentiation. The assignment includes managing all aspects of the
 creative and media plan development and will likely include a significant
 online component. The new creative campaign elements from the Cutwater team
 are expected to begin appearing in late fall 2007. Terms of the new
 relationship were not disclosed.

 antioxidant health protection. FRS is available in ready-to-drink beverage,
