About International Players Tour (IPT)

International Players Tour, operated by prior management of Champions Golf Tour
(CGT), was launched in January 2008 for the purpose of bringing PGA style
competition to avid golfers everywhere. Operations began in April 2002 under the
banner of the Champions Golf Tour, which was founded by Ron Beaman in the
Dallas/Ft.Worth area. Ron developed a business model that would provide avid
recreational golfers a chance to play in an environment similar to major tour events
inside the ropes for significant prize money utilizing a proprietary handicap
system.

After conducting its first event in June, 2002, CGT followed with 17 tournaments in
2002 and awarded nearly $60,000 in prize money. Significant and sustained growth has
occurred in subsequent years in player participation, number of events, and prize
money. With over 1200 players in their system, IPT management conducted over 150
events in 2007 within ten state and twelve metropolitan city areas with payouts
exceeding $570,000. In 2008, the IPT will conduct 200+ events in fifteen different
metro areas, culminating in the Tour Championship at the Horseshoe Bay Marriott
Resort in Texas, with the winner taking home $20,000 in GUARANTEED first place prize
money!

The Model that Works is now being adopted effectively and implemented successfully
in multiple cities, with projected expansion onto 5-10 new markets each year
including international locations - through a unique licensing rights program.

In addition, IPT has expanded its 2008 Senior Tour Division schedule to include
10-12 new 54 hole events across the USA. The Senior Tour Division provides playing
opportunities for seniors with competitive aspirations on the PGA Champions Tour or
maintaining their level of competition for significant purses. See www.ipgtour.com
