News: Statement by SFNE regarding lawsuit

By Kyle Rehm

Sep. 2nd, 2004 -- The information reported in the news media today regarding a proposed Six Flags' settlement agreement with the Mordarsky family is simply inaccurate.

Six Flags came to an agreement in principle with Germaine and Daniel Mordarsky and with the estate of Stanley Modarsky that provided for immediate financial relief, ongoing financial support and donations to charities. The minimum guaranteed amount of this settlement was in excess of $500,000.

Six Flags has not reneged on this proposed settlement and, in fact, in response to additional demands by the attorneys for the Mordarsky family, substantially increased the offer.

We continue to extend our most sincere condolences to the Mordarsky family and are frankly dismayed by their current frustrations as portrayed by attorney Joseph Farrell.

For more than 40 years, our company has delivered billions of safe, fun theme park experiences for families around the world. The safety and enjoyment of those families is our top priority.
