Kasey Kahne

STATESVILLE, N.C. – Gillett Evernham Motorsports announced today that LifeLock®, the nation’s leading identity theft protection service, will co-sponsor the No. 9 Budweiser Dodge with driver Kasey Kahne when it races at Michigan Speedway this weekend and at the Allstate 400 at the Brickyard in Indianapolis on July 27.

“It’s cool to have LifeLock join us on the car for two of the biggest races left in the season,” said Kahne who has posted victories at Charlotte and Pocono in recent weeks. “I joined LifeLock and have been very pleased with the security it provides me and my family. I’m glad they see the value of our sport and I think our fans will see the value of LifeLock.”

As the industry leader in identity theft protection, LifeLock requests on behalf of its clients that the national credit bureaus place fraud alerts on its members’ credit files, and requests that members’ names be removed from pre-approved credit card offer and junk mail lists. It is backed by a $1 million service guarantee. In addition to the proactive identity theft protection measures provided by LifeLock, members are also entitled to LifeLock’s WalletLock™ service. WalletLock works to cancel and replace all documents and personal identifying information inside a wallet if it is lost or stolen.

“We are extremely excited about the opportunity to team with one of the most recognizable teams in NASCAR and one of the series best drivers,” said LifeLock CEO Todd Davis. “As we continue to build a presence in this sport, we want to work with the racing community to spread our message of identity theft protection to as many people as possible.”

LifeLock also sponsors Gillett Evernham Motorsports driver Patrick Carpentier in eight NASCAR Sprint Cup races in the 2008 season.

Team CEO Tom Reddin said the addition of two more races to the LifeLock schedule is another sign of the growing relationship between the two companies.

“We think pairing Kasey, one of the sport’s stars, with one of the fastest growing corporations in America is a natural fit,” Reddin said. “We are pleased LifeLock enjoys its association with NASCAR, Patrick and Gillett Evernham Motorsports so much it wanted more races.”

LifeLock has held sponsorship deals in NASCAR, open wheel and sports car racing. Recently, it announced a three-year agreement to sponsor this weekend’s Sprint Cup Series race at Michigan Speedway.
