2009 H1N1 (referred to as “swine flu” early on) is a new influenza virus caus-
ing illness in people. This new virus was first detected in people in the United
States in April 2009. This virus is spreading from person-to-person world-
wide. On June 11, 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) signaled
that a pandemic of 2009 H1N1 flu was underway. Spread of 2009 H1N1
virus is thought to occur in the same way that seasonal flu spreads. Flu
viruses are spread mainly from person to person through coughing or
sneezing by people with influenza. Sometimes people may become infected
by touching something – such as a surface or object – with flu viruses on it
and then touching their mouth or nose.

Preliminary Testing
Shows 99+% H1N1
Kill Rate On SurfacesInitial Test Results Show 99+% Inactivation of
H1N1 Flu Virus as Kansas State University
completes preliminary testing on RGF’s Pho-
tohydroionization (PHI-Cell®) and Reflective
Electromagnetic Energy (REME® Cell) tech-
nologies with 99+% inactivation of H1N1 Flu
Virus as tested on stainless steel surfaces.
Further testing is scheduled.
IRS in Austin installs 80 Units,Plans to Study Employee Sick TimeThe IRS Center in downtown Austin, TX installed 80 units in
their entire facility. They were concerned about improving
employee morale and reducing sick time and installing
Guardian Air units in their facility to drastically improve IAQ
seemed like the perfect solution. They plan on examining
employee sick time in the year before installation and the
year after to determine how much the improvement in indoor
air quality helped. Before those results are completed, we
can already say the employees really appreciate the fresh
feeling to the air.
Orland Park, ChicagoWe had a chance to check back
in with Orland Park schools in
Chicago this week. Three years
later they’re still using Guardian
Air products and were very ex-
cited to hear that they were al-
ready doing everything to protect
their district from the H1N Flu.
Guardian Air finds happy
patrons at local smoking barsRGF recently completed two new installations in Texas at
smoking bars; both the “Bitter End” in San Antonio, TX and
“Shooters” in Cedar Park, TX. Both of these applications
were heavy on cigarette odors and it was the staff that ulti-
mately suffered. Our Representative in Texas, Todd Mont-
gomery, recommended Guardian Air units to try and combat
the constant smoke odors and VOC introduced to the space.
The units were installed at 10am and Todd received a text
that night at 4am from one of the bartenders that just simply
read “YEAH!”. After working for 14 years, the bartender said
it was the first night ever he had come home without smelling
like smoke.
Gold’s Gym Installs
Guardian Air and REMEGold’s Gym in Orlando, FL has recently began a rollout of
Guardian Air and REME units to all 8 locations around the
city. The first building with 12 units was installed and results
have been excellent. The management staff at Gold’s cur-
rently working with RGF to feature the Guardian Air in ad-
vertisements and posters all over every location as the
rollout is progressing.

Shooters Cedar Park, Texas
Dr. Marsden with Kansas State University has advised us that
this is the first in a battery of tests being conducted by his labo-
ratory at KSU. The initial tests were performed on inoculated
stainless steel surfaces and showed an inactivation rate of
99+% for the H1N1 virus. He is anticipating completion of this
written report by no later than next week. This is the first step in
a larger research project being conducted by Kansas State Uni-
versity, whereby upon completion, we anticipate submitting the
final report to the FDA for product claim authorization and clear-
ance.
Meanwhile, RGF would like to clarify a few points to help all of
us in presenting truthful marketing and advertising claims on
this issue. RGF has always been adamant about not making
any sort of medical claims or misleading statements in our mar-
keting or advertising.
More recently, with the development of H1N1 Virus, the FDA
has issued a warning against companies marketing H1N1 Flu
Virus claims, which recently came to our attention. The FDA pro-
hibits companies who have not obtained prior authorization,
from promoting or marketing products that claim to diagnose,
mitigate, prevent, treat, or cure the H1N1 virus. They have gone
so far as checking company websites for language eluding to
this or similar language in conjunction with destroying the H1N1,
and has sent 50 warning letters to date. They also have the
power to refer violations to the FDA’s Office of Criminal Investi-
gations. The following companies are currently listed on the FDA
website for illegally marketing products with objectionable
