I think the link is more likely tied to Unique and the possible fall out Shelby may face from his connection to it. This may be a pre-emptive strike to ward off some of that liability. Sue them before they sue you kind of thing. I can see Shelby being pissed off with AC and a B.F. connection, and what more does Shelby need to sue someone? Being 'pissed off' is about all it takes...
