Fortress Investment update and Schering Plough email alert

1) Fortress Update

Recently, you were sent an alert about Fortress Investment Group who have lent
HLS $30 million since 2006 to help prop up their animal torture. With the help
of Fortress' loan over the past 3 years HLS have continued to torture and kill
about 540,000 animals.

After demonstrations in London and New York, Fortress made a false statement
saying that they not longer have a loan with HLS. Also, to try and take the
heat off them, they have colluded with HLS/LSR to create yet another front
company - River Partners of which they say have taken over the loan, this
company physically doesn't exist, it is just another shell company that
Fortress have used like in the past with BDO and Sub Anchor.

We call upon everyone near a Fortress office location to put pressure on them
and to ensure them that until they actually de-invest with HLS and actually
proof it. SHAC and the global animal rights movement will continue to target
them for the disgusting liars there are!

Fortress Investments Group offices can be found here:
http://www.shac.net/action/financial/fortress_locations.html
Please let them know what you think of their dealings with HLS.

2) Schering Plough

Schering Plough are a customer of HLS and have used their 'services' this year.
This disgusting company continue to use HLS even after knowing about all the
exposes of animal cruelty and falsification of test data. Please get in touch
with Schering Plough through the email addresses below and let them know that
dealing with HLS is unacceptable.

Remember, without customers and suppliers HLS cannot operate and will have to
close down.

In this alert we will provide a sample letter and details of where to send
them, but feel free to write your own letters. You can find out more about the
exposes of HLS by visiting: www.shac.net/HLS/exposed.html

Sample E-mail
============

Dear [insert name]

It has come to our attention that your company continues to this day to do
business with Huntingdon Life Sciences, the worlds most exposed animal testing
laboratory.

HLS have been exposed countless times for animal cruelty. Their workers were
shown on national television punching beagle puppies in the face. If you are in
any doubt about what goes on inside the secret labs of HLS, then please read in
their own words what workers have to say and see footage filmed inside the lab:
www.shac.net/HLS/exposed/inside_hls/Inside_HLS_Full_Report.html

I am sure you will agree that what goes on inside HLS is shameful. You should
also be aware that HLS have been shown on many occasions to falsify data. In
2007 an employee filed a lawsuit against HLS following being sacked after he
refused to falsify data.

I urge you not to side and profit from the despicable cruelty at HLS. Please
turn your back on animal cruelty, shoddy work and law breaking.

Please view the SHAC website at www.shac.net for more information on the SHAC
campaign.

We respectfully ask you that you make an ethical decision to please stop
dealing with this terrible company.

Thank you for your time

[insert name]
