(together, “Plaintiffs” or “Calvin Klein”) hereby bring the present action against the Partnerships and Unincorporated Associations identified on Schedule A attached hereto (collectively, “Defendants”) and allege as follows: I. JURISDICTION AND VENUE 1. This Court has original subject matter jurisdiction over the claims in this action pursuant to the provisions of the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1051 et seq., 28 U.S.C. § 1338(a)-(b) and 28 U.S.C. § 1331. This Court has jurisdiction over the claims in this action that arise under the laws of the State of Illinois pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1367(a), because the state law claims are so related to the federal claims that they form part of the same case or controversy and derive from a common nucleus of operative facts. 2. Venue is proper in this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391, and this Court may properly exercise personal jurisdiction over Defendants since each of the Defendants directly targets business activities toward consumers in Illinois and causes harm to Calvin Klein’s Case: 1:15-cv-02224 Document #: 1 Filed: 03/13/15 Page 2 of 26 PageID #:2 business within this Judicial District. Through at least the fully interactive commercial Internet websites operating under the Defendant Domain Names and/or the Online Marketplace Accounts identified in Schedule A attached hereto (collectively, the “Defendant Internet Stores”), each of the Defendants has targeted sales from Illinois residents by operating online stores that offer shipping to the United States, including Illinois, accept payment in U.S. dollars and, on information and belief, has sold counterfeit Calvin Klein products to residents of Illinois. Each of the Defendants is committing tortious acts in Illinois, is engaging in interstate commerce, and has wrongfully caused Calvin Klein substantial injury in the State of Illinois. II. INTRODUCTION 3. This action has been filed by Calvin Klein to combat online counterfeiters who trade upon Calvin Klein’s reputation and goodwill by selling and/or offering for sale unauthorized and unlicensed counterfeit products, including underwear and watches, featuring Calvin Klein’s trademarks (the “Counterfeit Calvin Klein Products”). The Defendants create the Defendant Internet Stores by the hundreds or even thousands and design them to appear to be selling genuine Calvin Klein products, while actually selling Counterfeit Calvin Klein Products to unknowing consumers. The Defendant Internet Stores share unique identifiers, such as design elements and similarities of the counterfeit products offered for sale, establishing a logical relationship between them and suggesting that Defendants’ counterfeiting operation arises out of the same transaction, occurrence, or series of transactions or occurrences. Defendants attempt to avoid liability by going to great lengths to conceal both their identities and the full scope and interworking of their counterfeiting operation. Calvin Klein is forced to file these actions to combat Defendants’ counterfeiting of the registered Calvin Klein trademarks, as well as to protect unknowing consumers from purchasing Counterfeit Calvin Klein Products over the 2 Case: 1:15-cv-02224 Document #: 1 Filed: 03/13/15 Page 3 of 26 PageID #:3 Internet. Calvin Klein has been and continues to be irreparably damaged through consumer confusion, dilution, and tarnishment of its valuable Calvin Klein trademarks as a result of Defendants’ actions and seeks injunctive and monetary relief. III. THE PARTIES Plaintiff 4. Plaintiff Calvin Klein Trademark Trust (“CKTT”) is a business trust organized and existing under the laws of Delaware with an address, c/o Calvin Klein, Inc., at 205 West 39th Street, New York, New York 10018.

    Calvin Klein, Inc. Appoints Irish Apparel Specialists, Premium Golf Brands, as Global Licensee Submitted by: Medi8 Monday, 16 March 2009 Premium Golf Brands to Develop Calvin Klein Golf Apparel and Accessories Range New York, USA & Cork, Ireland: Calvin Klein, Inc. (CKI) and Premium Golf Brands (PGB) today announced an agreement that appoints PGB as the official global licensee of Calvin Klein Golf. Appropriately for the Cork based company, the announcement was made just in time for St. Patrick’s Day celebrations in the presence of An Taoiseach Brian Cowen. The agreement was announced following a breakfast in New York City honouring Ireland’s Prime Minister, Brian Cowen who is leading a trade mission to the U.S. The event was hosted by Enterprise Ireland, the Government Agency responsible for driving leadership and growth for innovative Irish companies in international markets. The exclusive multi year licensing agreement allows PGB to source, manufacture, and distribute Calvin Klein Golf apparel for men and women. The license also includes the right to introduce other Calvin Klein Golf accessories on a global basis. The men’s and women’s Calvin Klein Golf Spring 2009 range is available at retail now from leading golf specialty stores and resorts in the UK, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Finland, Turkey, and Sweden. A full European roll out of the brand is expected by the end of the next quarter, and it is planned that by Spring 2010, that the global distribution of Calvin Klein Golf will expand to reach the Middle East (Dubai), the Americas, Africa, and Asia. Premium Golf Brands, Europe’s largest golf apparel distributor, was the European distributor for the predecessor license since the Calvin Klein Golf brand was launched in early 2008.

  • Celebration Civilization Culture Contributions Contributors
    PRESENTED BY THE ASPER FOUNDATION Celebration Civilization Culture Contributions Contributors TEL AVIV, ISRAEL Celebration Civilization Culture Contributions Contributors PRESENTED BY THE ASPER FOUNDATION 2017 A Frank Gehry museum for Tel Aviv, Israel The World’s Jewish Museum is the most ambitious and far-reaching project of its kind today. To be located in Tel Aviv, it will exhibit the spectacular array of Jewish ideas, education, thought, and creativity in every conceivable field. It engages visually and intellectually—and on a grand scale—with all things Jewish over the course of humanity’s journey. Judaism is writ large in global history, and the museum aims very high in its architecture, exhibits, scope, and passion. 6 PRESENTED BY THE ASPER FOUNDATION THE VISION The World’s Jewish Museum represents a positive paradigm focused on linking past and present contributions—with an outlook to the future. Most crucially, the World’s Jewish Museum will enhance the bond between Israel and the global Jewish population through the strengthening of its collective identity. This museum will attest to the significance of outstanding Jewish attainment and intellectual output and showcase the ways in which these contributions have shaped the path of humankind. Exhibitions and programs will also document the connection between the world’s Jewish peoples and the land of Israel. Why create the World’s Jewish Museum? The remarkable contributions of the Jewish people in the modern era—far out of proportion to their small number—is a cause for celebration and a subject for exploration. Their contributions and personalities are manifest. Whether working in a laboratory or a place of business, Jewish thinkers have transformed fundamental elements of modern life for all the world’s citizens.
