From: Laura Biery, Marketing and Economic Sustainability Manager Subject: AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF BEVERLY HILLS AND CMG WORLDWIDE, INC. FOR TRADEMARK LICENSING AGENT
SERVICES
Attachments: 1. Agreement
2. RFP Response from CMG Worldwide, Inc.
RECOMMENDATION
The Beverly Hills City Council Liaison Branding and Licensing Committee, made up of Councilmember Mirisch and Councilmember Friedman, recommends the City Council enter into an agreement with CMG Worldwide, Inc. for trademark licensing services for a term of five years (January 1, 2023 – December 31, 2027).
INTRODUCTION
The City of Beverly Hills is the owner of the Beverly Hills Shield Design trademark (“Shield”). The City leverages the Shield recognition to optimize revenue by entering into licensing agreements with film and television studios, theme parks and apparel merchandising firms. The City has utilized various licensing agencies over the years to manage these trademark licensing agreements. Since 2013, the City has utilized CMG Worldwide, Inc. as its trademark licensing agency. In October 2022, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit responses from potential licensing agencies. This item seeks City Council approval of the recommendation of the Beverly Hills City Council Liaison Branding and Licensing Committee to enter into an agreement with CMG Worldwide, Inc. as the selected agency for trademark licensing services for a term of five years (January 1, 2023 – December 31, 2027).
DISCUSSION
On October 6, 2022, an RFP was published on the City’s vendor solicitation web portal known as Planet Bids (planetbids.com). This RFP solicitation reached 351 vendors and another 250 vendors were reached through a bid broadcast via the Planet Bids network.
In addition, the City’s Purchasing Division contacted over 20 potential firms directly that perform trademark licensing work or had responded to similar RFPs for other agencies.

d
Meeting Date: December 13, 2022
This direct outreach included the City’s existing trademark licensing vendor (CMG Worldwide, Inc.) as well as the City’s previous vendor (Bradford Licensing). On October 28, 2022, when proposals were due, one RFP response was received. The one response received was from CMG Worldwide, Inc. and is included as Attachment 2 to this report.
CMG Worldwide, Inc. has been the City’s licensing agency since 2013. The RFP issued in October 2022 was issued not as a result of dissatisfaction with the services provided by CMG Worldwide, Inc. and instead was a result of the City’s best practice to periodically place contracts out for bidding to ensure the City is receiving the best possible pricing for services.
The CMG Worldwide, Inc. response to the RFP was reviewed by City staff and is considered responsive to the requirements of the published RFP and recommended for selection.
FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of the CMG Worldwide, Inc. trademark licensing agreement will be dependent on the number of licensing agreements secured and the negotiated terms of those agreements. The proposed term for the trademark licensing agency agreement with CMG Worldwide, Inc. is for five years from January 1, 2023 – December 31, 2027.

Mark Roesler, Esq.
Founder, Chairman & CEO
CMG Worldwide, Inc.
October 28, 2022
The City of Beverly Hills
455 N Rexford Dr
Beverly Hills, CA 90210
To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Mark Roesler, and I am the founder, Chairman and CEO of CMG Worldwide, Inc. (“CMG”). CMG Worldwide is an Indiana corporation, and our current headquarters are located at 9229 Sunset Boulevard, Suite 950, West Hollywood, California 90069. Beginning December 1, 2022, CMG’s new headquarters will be at the Penthouse of the Beverly Hills Gateway Building at 9777 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills, California 90212.
Beginning in 1992, the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce, which was then responsible for the City’s trademark licensing program, enlisted CMG as the exclusive licensing representative of the Beverly Hills intellectual properties. I was personally in charge of the account and did extensive work to build the legal foundation of these valuable trademarks. In 2013, the city of Beverly Hills reengaged CMG’s trademark representation through the end of 2022. Having been very personally active in the legal and marketing initiatives of the City of Beverly Hills trademarks, I consider myself very knowledgeable about the numerous issues surrounding these world famous trademarks.
This letter is in response to your Request for Proposal sent to my firm on October 17, 2022. I am the sole individual with authority to negotiate on behalf of and to contractually bind CMG, and who may be contacted during the period of proposal evaluation. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach me at mark@cmgworldwide. com, 9229 W Sunset Blvd Ste. 950, West Hollywood, California 90069, or via my direct line at 317.513.6600. The accompanying proposal from CMG (“Proposal”) constitutes a contractual offer for a period of at least one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of the Proposal.
I look forward to continuing our long time working relationship and fostering new opportunities for the City of Beverly Hills into the future.

CMG Worldwide, Inc.
Proposal for the City of Beverly Hills
2. Table of Contents
3 CMG Worldwide, Inc. is a premier intellectual property rights management, licensing and consulting agency that presently represents over 300 clients. Since its inception in 1981, CMG has represented the intellectual property rights of over 1,500 iconic clients in the sports, entertainment, music, and historical realms, including the likes of James Dean, Jackie Robinson, Maya Angelou, Neil Armstrong, Amelia Earhart, Malcolm X, Rosa Parks, Aaliyah, and Chuck Berry. CMG’s expertise extends to brand representation, as evidenced by ongoing projects with Gilbert H. Baker Foundation, Canter’s Delicatessen, and Jeannie Buss’s Women of Wrestling. Our legal and marketing staff drive a potential license from preparation and brand negotiations to royalty administration and deal upkeep. Our staff finalizes over 1,000 licensing deals on an annual basis. 42 years of industry-leading legal, marketing, and licensing expertise has seen CMG conceptualize and execute no fewer than 30,000 licenses for our clients’ trademarks, copyrights, and rights of publicity. We have a global network of over 20,000 companies that we have facilitated various forms of intellectual property contracts for and with. We pride ourselves on having cuttingedge expertise and leadership in the realm of intellectual property licensing.
In executing CMG’s huge volume of historical deals, our staff have worked with and maintained relationships with companies that run the gamut of licensing activities – studios, entertainment companies, music labels, merchandise and apparel brands, food and beverage companies, and tech companies, among others. CMG frequently collaborates with the world’s most powerful organizations, including the likes of Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, Google, Nike, Adidas, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America. Our robust network facilitates first contact with market leaders across a diverse range of industries, and our staff’s marketing acumen drives the development of innovative and successful licensing programs. We aggressively market our clients’ trademark portfolios to broker impactful collaborations with brands, from merchandising opportunities, television commercials to print advertisements, film placements, special packaging, and product cross promotion. Today, CMG manages and maintains a portfolio of hundreds of domestic and international trademarks on our clients’ behalf, and we prosecute to protect trademark integrity when necessary.
Unlike other licensing and marketing agencies, CMG’s emphasis begins with legal protection. Our seasoned legal team negotiates, drafts, and administers license agreements suited to each of our clients’ individual needs, allowing our business development, marketing, and promotional teams to freely focus on developing client brands through the identification and aggressive pursuit of new licensing opportunities across all mediums both domestic and abroad.. We actively seek out commercial opportunities that are consistent with our brand positioning goals, while balancing our clients’ strategic goals, as well as those of our licensing partners.
CMG has decades of experience in working with municipalities and local and federal government agencies on trademark licensing programs. CMG represented “I Love New York” on behalf of the New York State Department of Economic Development, and was instrumental in developing the brand from its inception in the 1990s as a Milton Glaser doodle, to a level of global recognition which allowed us to generate $30 million in licensing revenue for the State of New York from 1995 to 2016.
In addition, CMG previously lent its expertise to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to represent the Hollywood sign and Hollywood Walk of Fame. Our role included securing various trademarks for the iconic Los Angeles landmarks and licensing those trademarks to third parties. Our licensing efforts for the Hollywood sign and Hollywood Walk of Fame generated $4 million for our client from 1987 through 2016.
CMG’s work on behalf ofthe City ofBeverly Hills extends back to the early 90’s when we were first engaged by the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce. From 1992 to 1999, and again from 2013 through 2022, CMG served as the City’s exclusive, worldwide licensing agent and handled licenses on its behalf with leading brands, including Skechers, Revolve, Williams Sonoma, and Amiri.
3. Introduction to CMG Worldwide, Inc.
4 Today, while CMG is well established in representing and protecting historical IP, the company has continued to expand itself into new technological frontiers through its creation and exploitation of new valuable intellectual property. Five years ago, CMG’s founder & CEO, Mark Roesler, partnered with tech visionary, Travis Cloyd, to launch Worldwide XR – a cutting-edge XR company based in Los Angeles and Miami – as a subsidiary of CMG. Travis is a leading futurist, award-winning producer, Metaverse educator, and entertainment executive with a focus on creating, managing, and financing immersive state-of-the-art technology companies. Travis has conceptualized and delivered next-level digital content to government agencies, professional sports leagues, major international studios, iconic brands, legendary actors, global musicians, top athletes and historical figures throughout his career. For example, in 2021, CMG Worldwide partnered with the United States Space Force, Vue XR, Star Atlas, & Ethernity to present the first ever officially licensed space NFT collection: Armstrong Satellite NFT Launch with Spaceforce. More recently, Worldwide XR conceptualized, managed, and wrapped production with Ford and Charlie D’Amelio to launch the 2023 Ford Mustang GT.
CMG has had various international offices throughout its history, including offices in Rio de Janeiro and Taiwan. Currently, CMG’s main presence is in Los Angeles, California, and also maintains offices in major cities such as Indianapolis, Indiana and Nashville, Tennessee, where the majority of its music matters are handled. Regardless of ourlocation, whether working with a celebrity or celebrity estate, organization or municipality, CMG is dedicated to providing client-tailored service. Our hand-in-hand approach ensures we develop our clients’ brands responsibly, and in line with the vision of each brand’s ethos and pathos. For Beverly Hills,we will ensure the development of a cohesive brand image, one that embodies luxury, exclusivity, relaxation, and comfort. Our collective skill and experience would be an indispensable asset for the City of Beverly Hills in protecting and promoting the use of the Beverly Hills Shield.

5 Marketing Strategy
Collection Division
Social Media Strategy
CMG provides a complete suite of marketing services for its clients’ trademarks and other intellectual property. Our assertive style and aggressive pursuit of both domestic and international marketing programs for our clients distinguishes us from our competitors. We formulate a marketing strategy according to our clients’ needs and desires, and then selectively search for and establish marketing programs that reflect these goals. Specifically, CMG creates and disseminates marketing materials that overview the clients’ brand, any previous deals, synergy with the potential licensee, and concepts for potential collaborations. We have over 1,000 active licensees around the world today and maintain strong relationships with the over 20,000 companies that we have worked with in the past. These relations facilitate licensing opportunities for our clients in a way that most other agencies simply cannot match. As tools to promote inbound business, the official CMG website and client websites have proven to be invaluable. With nearly one million hits collectively per day, CMG owned sites help to develop brand association between our clients and CMG, to drive e-commerce across platforms, and to funnel incoming license opportunities.
In the decade since our relationship was last evaluated, CMG has devoted significant time and resources to the expansion of its marketing and social media departments. CMG has redeveloped its client promotional materials and dissemination strategies in a push to drive outbound sales. Our clients have significantly benefited from this revamp, as it has facilitated several recent high-profile deals.
CMG’s legal and financial staff vigorously pursue all licensees which are delinquent in payment or are otherwise in breach of their agreement. Distinct from infringement matters, CMG typically settles collection disputes amicably. We find that our approach encourages expeditious payment and maintains goodwill for potential future licenses. If the licensee refuses their responsibilities, CMG will implement formal collection procedures. The standard collection procedure requires clients to decide whether to pursue collection of delinquent monies owed via arbitration or lawsuit, depending on which is more likely to result in a swift and inexpensive collection of the debt. The CMG legal department then uses all available means to collect any award or judgment rendered, including retaining local counsel to enforce the award or judgment.
CMG has a strong social media presence and strategy. Indeed, over 30,000,000 people across Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Youtube collectively follow CMG owned and/or managed accounts.
Our social media strategy has evolved considerably in the last several years. We prioritize in-house consolidation of all social media management, and have created new accounts for all clients. Our social media manager posts at a regular cadence across platforms and with client-tailored design ethos. We recently kickstarted our TikTok presence and have seen rapid growth. We have understood the power of social media to monetize our decades of stockpiled content and to drive inbound business through client cross-promotion. Both have proven profitable, but we would like to emphasize the potential value of cross-promotion of the Beverly Hills brand to our 30,000,000 followers.
4. Proposal Summary
Advertising and Promotion
At CMG, we emphasize the visibility of our clients above all else. For that reason, our focus is not on the placement of CMG Worldwide ads, but rather the visibility of our clients. For example, our clients are often 6 Experience Working with Municipal Government, Federal Government, and Similar Private Entities
CMG has several decades of experience in working with municipal and federal government agencies, as well as similar private entities. CMG served as exclusive licensing agent and spearheaded a brand based on Milton Glaser’s I Love New York doodle for the New York State Department of Economic Development for over 20 years.
Beyond I Love New York, CMG and its entertainment technology focused subsidiary, Worldwide XR, recently collaborated with the US federal government on the production of the first ever officially licensed space NFTs:
Armstrong Satellite NFT Launch with Spaceforce. CMG and Worldwide XR feel deeply honored to have ushered the federal government’s first step towards embracing Web3 technology. The success of the campaign left the door open for an expanded relationship with the United States Space Force, as well as with other federal government agencies.
While not yet public, the Gilbert H. Baker Foundation has retained CMG to serve as the exclusive business agent and marketer oftheirre-designed Pride logo. CMG’s expertise is valuable to help determine how bestto market these iconic symbols.
Most notably, CMG has served as the exclusive worldwide representative of the Shield. Roesler and CMG completed extensive work to build the legal foundation of the City’s valuable trademarks. In the decades since, CMG has worked hand-in-hand with the City to continue to maintain a cohesive and long-lasting brand, but we are just getting started. Travis Cloyd, CEO of CMG subsidiary Worldwide XR, recently presented his vision for The Beverly Hills Metaverse to Mayor Bosse and other city officials. While still in its early stages,the project promises to drive City profits through: virtual travel, virtual learning, virtualreal estate, gaming, and e-commerce. The projectrelies on nextgeneration VR, XR, and AR hardware, thus positioning the Beverly Hills brand for significant growth in the next five to ten years.
featured prominently in advertising campaigns, which run the gamut across diverse media channels, including traditional print and digital outlets, Google Doodles, and even joint NFT campaigns with the US government. While our marketing strategy is client focused, our highly successful and creative promotional department also works diligently to leverage our advertising and media relations to position our company as the preeminent authority on right of publicity and IP representation. This positioning ensures a consistent flow ofinbound licensing opportunities from leaders among a diverse range of industries.
7 Identify and pursue new opportunities for licensing in domestic and international markets, in existing and new product categories in prevailing and emerging media, at the direction of the City. CMG feels confident in claiming status as the preeminent global authority on licensing in existing and new product categories. Given the fact that we routinely manage IP and trademark portfolios of a roster of 300+ clients - we maintain direct lines of communication and strong business relationships with an extensive network of nearly 20,000 brands and licensees. We leverage these relationships to develop, negotiate and facilitate meaningful collaborations with brands and contracting organizations to ensure that our clients are featured in impactful endorsement campaigns, from television commercials to print advertisements to special edition packaging and cross promotion. As such, our marketing outreach on behalf of our clients is ongoing, steady and continuous. We routinely identify and pitch collaborations to our global network of existing and pastlicensees that have diversified interests across innumerable product categories. Recent Web3 technological innovations have allowed CMG to leverage our clients’ trademarks with industry leaders across new modes of media. As mentioned above, Worldwide XR leveraged the trademarks of long-time CMGclientNeilArmstrong,to develop and debutthe United States Space Force’s first everNFT collection in 2021. CMG aims to prepare for the next several decades of content revolution, and expertise gained through cutting-edge collaborations such as this helps to ensure the longevity of both our clients and our organization.
Prepare licensing agreements for presentation to the City. CMG’s legal staff is experienced in a diverse suite of licensing agreements on behalf of the City. Before execution, we will prepare a concise one-sheet, and, if necessary, a slide-deck detailing the proposed licensee, deal mechanics, and deal terms for presentation to and approval by the City. To respect the time of the city’s representatives, potential licensees will be proposed in batches.
Manage Licensees. CMG represents over 300 of the world’s most famous personalities and brands. On their behalf, CMG executes and manages over 1,000 royalty bearing licenses per year. To administer this quantity of licenses and coordinate approvals, CMG relies on its talented staff and robust, proprietary document management system.
Submit royalty reports to the City so the City can invoice for payment. City will then remit payment to the successful firm. CMG relies on meticulous record keeping and a proprietary document management system to handle a remarkably high transaction volume. Ourrecords system stretches back to the company’s first days. Today, it allows us to successfully execute and remit payment to clients for upwards of 1,000 deals per year. CMG’s royalty reporting system is set up to furnish monthly or quarterly royalty reports to our clients, based on their preference.
Evaluate current license agreements and recommend changes to be implemented in future license agreements. Legal and marketing staff review current licensing agreements on a recurring basis in order to ensure licensees continually meet the high standards set by CMG and our clientele. In addition, it is important that we continually update our license agreements to reflect the changes that rapidly occur in the intellectual property.
For example, we are particularly vigilant when it comes to adapting license arrangements on behalf of our clients, to leverage opportunities for their trademarks and IP through new, emerging media and formats of exploitation - such as crypto deals, officially licensed NFTs and the like.

Major League Baseball has partnered with CMG on countless initiatives over the past decades. CMG has represented over 150 of the most iconic, legendary players in baseball history. One such example is Major League Baseball’s first officially licensed NFT, which tokenized one of the most iconic moments in baseball history - Lou Gehrig’s “Luckiest Man” speech from July 4, 1939. CMG once again orchestrated the licensing arrangement and design of the NFT as between MLB, Candy and Ethereum and the Lou Gehrig estate. Candy and Ethereum served as NFT and blockchain partners respectively. As the Lou Gehrig estate’s officialrepresentative, coupled with 12 our unique expertise in developing entertainment technology-driven content through our new media subsidiary Worldwide XR, we were uniquely positioned to leverage the Lou Gehrig IP to structure this deal. Mark Roesler and Travis Cloyd facilitated this deal with the MLB in June 2021. The contact details of our reference at Major League Baseball are set out below:

13 Identify and pursue new opportunities for licensing in domestic and international markets, in existing and new product categories and media at the direction of the City. To capitalize on the tremendous potential inherent to the Beverly Hills Shield, the City must gain the assistance of a firm experienced not only in licensing, but in the development and implementation of cohesive, client-tailored marketing strategies. CMG aims to expand the scope of the City’s licensees far beyond the apparel industry. Our approach is three-pronged:
Prepare licensing agreements for presentation to the City. CMG has over four decades experience in the preparation and presentation of potential licensing agreements to our clients. To respect the time of the city’s representatives, opportunities will be prepared and presented in batches of like licensees. As per our ongoing arrangement, the CMG’s licensing approval process with Beverly Hills entails the following:
i. Preliminary terms are sent to a designated point of contact at the City of Beverly Hills for review and questions;
ii. The Liaison Committee meeting is scheduled;
iii. CMG presents for approval to the Liaison Committee; iv. CMG provides the contract to the City via the City of Beverly Hills’ designated point of contact; v. During the monthly, full City Council meeting, the City Council will vote on proposed licenses; vi. If passed by the City Council, the agreement will be sent from CMG to the city for signature.
Manage Licensees. CMG maintains open lines of communication and strong relationships with licensees across various industries and product categories in the likelihood that more business, for the same or a different client, is forthcoming. CMG leverages its proprietary document management system to track and monitor the high volume of licensees and deals handled on a daily basis, and also allow for all staff to access prior deal terms and fees to ensure programs are negotiated at or above market value. In terms of negotiating with potential licensees, we submit their proposal to our client for approval in all phases of the licensing process, including product development, packaging, advertising, promotion, and license negotiations. Signed contracts from licensees are submitted to our
1. Production and distribution of custom marketing materials. We will proactively produce and distribute custom-tailored marketing outreach materials to potential licensees among diverse industries, including but not limited to big tech, luxury consumer packaged goods, luxury apparel and fast-fashion. To do so, we will draw upon our existing relationships with 20,000 of the world’s leading organizations. We aim to amplify the City’s brand through a concentrated push for logo and product placement across media channels. We also would like to pursue a MR/VR/AR Beverly Hills experiential event for distribution to gathering-places across the country.
2. A social media campaign. As previously mentioned, CMG is working with the Gilbert H. Baker Foundation on their development of a new pride logo. CMG has begun coordinating with influencers (between 50,000 and 2,000,000 followers) for a mass launch event in early 2023. The launch event will entail staggered social media posts from some of the world’s most influential LGBTQ+ people, a customdesigned Pride swag box, cross-promotional posts from CMG’s most followed accounts, and possibly custom-designed Snapchat and TikTok filters. We feel a campaign of similar, or greater, scope is possible for the City of Beverly Hills.
3. Tourism-focused marketing. While CMG has and will continue to drive profits through the direct licensing of the City’s Properties, a cleverly-devised international licensing campaign can increase tourism for the City. We will partner with travel bloggers, city leaders, and local social-media influencers to drive tourism to Beverly Hills from elite communities around the world. CMG also aims to drive virtual tourism, as enabled by Worldwide XR’s vision for the Beverly Hills metaverse, through this program, thus removing geographical barriers to entry.
8. Work Plan of Proposal
14 client through a monthly report. This report breaks down all activity taking place on behalf of the client, including information on current negotiations, proposed deals from potential licensees, royalty reports from current licensees, legal and trademark status, artwork and samples.
Submit royalty reports to the City so the City can invoice for payment. City will then remit payment to the successful firm. CMG developed a proprietary, online royalty reporting system nearly ten years ago and employs an updated version of this system today. Not only has this system proven itself to be the most expeditious method of royalty reporting from CMG to its clientele, but it also ensures the greatest degree of accuracy in the issuance of such payments because any inconsistencies can be immediately identified. Our system enables us to efficiently monitor each licensee and product for each property, to analyze any property or licensee by country, by product, or by several other distinctive tracking methods and to accurately track each licensee and the performance or the priority of each property. We consider our royalty reporting methodology a unique, value-added service.
Evaluate current license agreements and recommend changes to be implemented in future license agreements. CMG completes an annual re-evaluation of all active licenses in order to ensure their continued compliance with the high standards set by CMG and our clients. 15 As CMG’s client, the City of Beverly Hills will have support 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. CMG’s General Counsel, Azadeh Sinai Samimi, Esq., will serve as the City’s primary Project Consultant with CMG. Azadeh can be reached at [email protected] or at 310.987.7280. Our senior business development associate, Wyatt Manolakas ([email protected]), marketing director, Ashley Haas ([email protected]), and social media manager, Anna Schuelein ([email protected]) will round out the devoted project team, but the City can expect the engagement of CMG’s entire organization, including that of CEO & Founder Mark Roesler.
9. Project Staffing
16 CMG General Counsel, Azadeh Sinai Samimi, Esq, will serve as the Project Consultant and primary point of contact for the City. Wyatt Manoalaks, Ashley Haas, and Anna Schuelein will report directly to Azadeh, but also work closely with representatives from the City as needed. Azadeh will work with the City to set weekly and monthly targets for licensing profits and impressions. Azadeh will work with Wyatt, Ashley, and Anna on a daily basis to ensure these targets are met. Wyatt and Ashley will be responsible for driving outbound marketing and licensing across industries, both domestically and abroad. Ashley and Anna will work closely on the development and implementation of a cohesive social media strategy. In circumstances where the City identifies and hands off a potential licensee to CMG, CMG will respond to the City and the potential licensee within 24 hours and, if needed, meet with the potential licensee, when possible, in no more than 3 business days. t
10. Project Management
17 CMG requests no changes or exceptions to the City’s RFP conditions and requirements, and thus accepts all conditions and requirements as set forth in the City’s RFP.
11. Proposal Exceptions
18 For any license agreement for which CMG Worldwide, Inc., identifies the licensee(s), negotiates the terms of the License Agreement, and administers the license Agreement, CMG shall receive 31.5% of gross receipts.

This is in line with CMG’s previous licensing agreement with the City of Beverly Hills, which commenced May 2013, and will expire in December 2022.
As an alternative to a percentage of gross receipts when the license agreement would be for single time use such as entertainment-related uses of the Property and the display of the Property in print, cable, television, motion pictures, and other media, CMG staff shall receive the hourly rates as set out below:
For these particular situations, the City shall have the right to negotiate a fee with CMG Worldwide, Inc.
