Background information on Travelzest

Travelzest is a British on-line travel group with high quality brands offering
specialist holiday programmes and services.

Chris Mottershead, 48, the Group Chief Executive who founded Travelzest in April
2005, has extensive experience in the travel industry and in working for both
large and small organisations.  He was managing director of TUI UK between 2001
and 2004 with responsibility for Thomson Holidays, Lunn Poly, Travelhouse and
other travel businesses based in the UK.  During that time, he steered the
company through one of the most difficult periods for travel and still achieved
record profits.  Prior to this, he was President and CEO, North American Leisure
Group, Airtours plc, which he joined in 1999.  His roles previously within
Airtours plc included managing director and finance director of Airtours
Holidays Limited.  He joined Airtours from Aspro Travel & Inter European Airways
where he was Group Finance Director.

The Group currently comprises:


itravel2000.com

itravel2000.com was founded in 1994 and is an online travel agent specialising
in the sale of travel and travel related products. Sales are made through
various internet web sites and a customer call centre located in Mississauga,
Ontario. The greater proportion of itravel2000.com's business is winter-based,
thus providing counter-seasonal revenue to the predominantly summer-based
revenues of Travelzest's businesses in Europe.

Holiday Express is one of the UK's leading on-line travel agents.  It is a
travel agent specialising in on-line travel fulfilment services and online

providing package holidays, charter flights and ski booking services, accounts
for the vast majority of its revenue and the remainder of its revenue is
generated through acting as a tour operator.  Holiday Express owns a number of
travel website domain names, including:

cabins of the world's leading airlines.


VFB Holidays

VFB Holidays is a long established, award winning tour operator, which provided
holidays for approximately 24,000 passengers in its last financial year. VFB is
currently contracted with the owners of approximately 350 holiday cottages
throughout France for the summer season, and has booking arrangements with over
150 hotels, most of which are privately owned and are located in rural or
semi-rural locations.  VFB specialises in cottage holidays in France, but also
has a number of other holiday programmes including: France a la Carte (hotel
accommodation), Corsica, Short Breaks, Escorted Tours and River Cruises.

holidays to Morocco for individuals or small groups.  It provides a
personalised service and its highly experienced and knowledgeable staff help

premier agent for the Marathon des Sables, a foot race that takes place in
Morocco in April each year, covering some 230km. Best of Morocco provides the

Since then, it has grown to become Britain's biggest naturist tour operator. It
has unrivalled experience of naturist areas worldwide and has selected only the
best. The range of naturist holidays offered is unmatched by any other British
tour operator.


Faraway Holidays

Faraway Holidays was launched by Travelzest in August 2006.  It offers
tailor-made holidays to many of the world's top exotic destinations in the Far
East, Middle East, Indian Ocean, South Pacific and South America. Every
destination offered by Faraway Holidays will have been visited by at least one
member of the sales team, ensuring that customers receive informed and
knowledgeable advice when planning their holiday.

Travelzest acquired the assets of Tapestry Holidays and is soon to launch a
revitalised brand, consisting of the very best of the Tapestry range.  The
Tapestry Collection will initially showcase the very best of Turkey and Crete
