Ashford.com reports spinoff of art division - GUILD.com - Brief Article

DSN Retailing Today, August 6, 2001

HOUSTON -- Ashford.com, a leading e-commerce destination for corporate and personal gifts and rewards, spun off its art division, GUILD.com, as an independent company late last month. The two companies will become strategic partners after the divestiture is complete, sharing revenue from GUILD.com art sales on Ashford.com and cooperating on a variety of marketing activities.

Each company will retain the assets it gained when Ashford acquired GUILD.com, a deal that was announced Jan. 4, 2001. Additionally, Ashford will retain a minority equity interest in GUILD.com, and GUILD.com shareholders will continue to own Ashford stock.
