In the wake of the hotelier�s frustrations in dealing with multiple
online travel site �extranets�, an internet based tool is now being successfully
used by hotels across the world to intelligently manage their Online Travel
Sites.
 In
less than the time it typically takes to update rates and inventory on
one travel site, �EZ Yield� can do 10, 20, 50 or more site updates with
just the click of a button. With this tool (www.ezyield.com),
hoteliers can update Rate, Availability, Inventory, Cutoff Dates, Stop
Sell/Closeout, Minimum Night Stay and Closed to Arrival restrictions for
�contracted� wholesaler websites.
EZ Yield gets hoteliers out of the Manual Data Entry business and into
the Revenue Strategy and Management business, dramatically impacting Internet
ADR, occupancy, and most importantly REVENUE.

Here is what a few industry experts
have to say about EZ Yield.
| "By using EZ Yield.com in 2003, our hotels have achieved a 15% increase
in occupancy and almost 34% increase in average rate from internet room
revenue. EZ Yield has helped me maximize my ADR as well as keep rate
parity AND rate integrity for my hotels. Thanks EZ Yield!".
Susie C. Anderson, Director of Revenue for the
Astor Crowne Plaza and Alexa Hotels

| �EZ Yield has allowed us to manage all our third party sites simultaneously
in minutes, rather than hours, while re-emphasizing rate parity, group
integrity and brand enforced lowest rate guarantees,�
Kim Stevenson, Director of Electronic Distribution
& Marketing for Rosen Hotels and Resorts

| �Even though our relationship has been relatively short in the big
picture, we have made tremendous strides. The TradeWinds has already shown
a great improvement in our ADR for the internet segment since we have become
partners. Rate parity is no longer an issue, and all of our dot com
partners are consistently happy with the job that we are doing keeping
everything in line. It is a good product and dedicated people like
you that help me look good in my job ��
