Industry = Automotive

Press Release Summary = CAPE TOWN, South Africa - Leatt Corporation (Pink Sheets:
LEAT.PK), a Nevada, USA Corporation headquartered in Cape Town, South Africa, and
the developer of the Leatt-BraceT, a Neck Brace System designed to help prevent
potentially devastating motor sport injuries to the cervical spine (neck), today
announced that the Leatt-BraceT MOTO GPX was recently recommended for use in a video
message by David Bailey, the legendary motocross and supercross champion of the
1980s, who was encouraging the use of available safety gear, specifically the
Leatt-BraceT MOTO GPX. Mr. Bailey received no consideration from Leatt Corp. for the
recommendation and is not a paid employee or agent of Leatt Corp.

Press Release Body = After having been heavily involved in the sport of motocross
for nearly 40 years, Mr. Bailey earned three National Championships, as well as a
Supercross Championship, two Grand National Championships and five trips to the top
of the podium as a member of Team USA in the Motocross des Nations. An unfortunate
1987 pre-season crash left him unable to use his legs. However, he came back with a
vengeance, and began training for the Ironman Triathlon, which he won in 2000.

David has witnessed numerous crashes over the past years. However, after a recent
crash involving racer Ryan Sipes who was seriously injured, David felt the need to
speak out directly to top riders, agents and the AMA regarding the use of available
safety gear, specifically the Leatt-BraceT MOTO GPX. David felt strongly enough
about this topic that he sat up in bed throughout his message, despite recent
surgery.
