ORLANDO, Fla. (October 26, 2001) -- Epani, Inc, a Orlando based provider of software solutions for the golf and hospitality industry, announced today that its Golf Reservation System has been selected by the Heritage Golf Group to enhance the efficiency of the reservation processes and guest check in at all Heritage properties.

Epani has successfully implemented the reservations system at market leading resort and destination courses during 2001. Consequently, these courses have enhanced operations, increased control, and improved the guest experience. Epani now offers these same benefits to high-end semi-private and daily fees courses.

The Heritage Golf Group, a San Diego-based owner and operator of premier private and daily fee golf facilities, selected the booking and reservation software from Epani as the platform for a company-wide initiative to integrate all course tee sheets through a central reservation operation, enabling the company to provide a higher level of service for guests in the golf shops.

"We are pleased to partner with Heritage Golf Group in support of their mission to provide the highest level of service to their golfers and guests," said Niklas Eklund, Chief Executive Officer for Epani Inc. "We firmly believe that the experience and vision of our collective organizations in the development and use of the Epani Golf Revenue Management Component, Golf Internet Booking Wizard and the Golf Reservation Wizard will result in a world class solution for all our customers."

"At Heritage, we're working to implement a world class technology platform to better serve our guests, and our exacting requirements led us to review many potential partners," said Ron Ward, Chief Technology Officer at Heritage Golf Group.

Heritage Golf Group owns and operates high quality golf facilities, both private and daily fee, throughout the United States. The company's current portfolio of nine properties includes: Angel Park Golf Club (Las Vegas, Nevada), Hamilton Mill Golf Club (Dacula, Georgia), Langdon Farms Golf Club (Aurora, Oregon), Polo Golf & Country Club (Cumming, Georgia), Talega Golf Club (San Clemente, California), The Legacy Golf Club (Las Vegas, Nevada), Trophy Lake Golf & Casting (Port Orchard, Washington), Washington National Golf Club (Auburn, Washington), and White Columns Golf Club (Alpharetta, Georgia).

Heritage Golf Group is led by Bob Husband, former founder, President and CEO of the highly successful Cobblestone Golf Group. Husband and Heritage's talented management team created Cobblestone Golf Group, which was sold in 1999.

Epani Inc, based in Orlando, Florida, is a leading provider of high-end software solutions to the golf, travel, resort and hospitality industry. The company is a spin off from software company Epani System, based in Sweden, which currently have more than 1,100 installations throughout Europe.
