According to records maintained for the years in issue by
U.S. Customs and by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, Gamesa,
not petitioner, was the registered owner of the “g” trademark in
the United States.
During the years in issue, purportedly pursuant to a
licensing agreement between petitioner and Cremin with respect to
the “g” trademark, petitioner transferred funds to Cremin as
follows:
Funds Transferred
Taxable Year to Cremin
1988 $ 589,462
1989 761,506
1990 681,601
1991 261,057
Total $2,293,626
The funds transferred by petitioner to Cremin were
periodically deposited into Cremin’s bank account with Citibank
International (Citibank) in Houston, Texas, by Rodolfo de la
Garza (de la Garza), Cremin’s only employee. De la Garza also
periodically served on petitioner’s and on Gamesa’s boards of
directors.
Most funds withdrawn from Cremin’s bank account during the
years in issue were transferred to Rubbik. Gamesa apparently did
not receive any of the above funds that petitioner transferred to
Cremin.
During the years in issue, petitioner also transferred funds
to Rubbik as follows:
