Calgary and Sioux City—VIP International, a wholly owned subsidiary of HARS Systems, Inc. (HSS: CDNX), today announced an agreement with Regency Hotel Management to provide their growing hotel brand, ClubHouse Inn and Suites, with an extensive reservation service program.

The agreement with the Sioux Falls, South Dakota-based hotel company, includes the provision of private label global distribution system (GDS) representation; electronic distribution to the Internet's leading travel portals and sites; access to the SynXis Agent™ web-enabled central reservation system; implementation of the SynXis Book-A-Rez™ Internet booking engine on ClubHouse Inn & Suites' proprietary Web site; and call center reservation services through VIP International's Reservation Sales Center.

VIP International's reservation services will be utilized by eight current ClubHouse Inn & Suites in Albuquerque, New Mexico; Atlanta (Norcross), Georgia; Chicago (Westmont), Illinois; Nashville, Tennessee; Kansas City (Overland Park), Kansas; Savannah, Georgia; Topeka, Kansas; Valdosta, Georgia; and a location planned for opening in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in 2002. Five Wyndham Garden hotels recently acquired by Regency Hotel Management that are currently scheduled to undergo a re-branding under the ClubHouse Inn & Suites flag are also included in the contract with VIP International. These hotel properties are situated in Knoxville, Tennessee; Omaha, Nebraska; Dallas (Richardson), Texas; St. Louis (West Port), Missouri; and Wichita, Kansas.

"Our decision to enter into an agreement with VIP International for their full range of reservation tools will add major components to our brand marketing and franchise sales strategies. On the brand marketing side, we have VIP International's seamless connection to the four major GDSs, as well as their growing connection to an extensive network of Internet travel portals and sites. These two distribution channels ensure our hotels are exposed to hundreds of thousands of travel agents and millions of Internet users around the globe. At the same time, we are also planning for the growth of the ClubHouse brand through our franchise strategy. With VIP International as ClubHouse's full-service reservation provider we enhance the value of our brand. We can now offer future franchise prospects with the industry's best central reservation system and an impressive support structure within VIP International," said Greg Schjodt, president of Regency Hotel Management.

"Access to the SynXis Agent™ web-enabled central reservation system through VIP International will empower all of our hotel properties to automatically update their rates, availability and information to the GDS and the Internet," said Gloriann Kueter, director of sales and marketing for ClubHouse Inn & Suites.

"Our toll free reservation line is also an important reservation tool for our hotels. VIP International's Reservation Sales Center played a major role towards our final decision. We were impressed with the success that many of VIP International's clients with a similar approach to the hotel business have experienced with the VIP Reservation Sales Center. An added bonus is that our hotels do not have to manage a separate inventory for this channel, as we have experienced in the past. Having one point of contact for all of our reservation services ensures our customers and guests have access to the most up-to-date and accurate information available directly from the hotel properties," added Ms. Kueter.

"Our contract with ClubHouse is a major coup for VIP International. A company that has a history of success as well as a great vision for future growth has selected us. We're excited about assisting ClubHouse surpass their goals," said Kelly Blake, president of VIP International.

Travel agents can continue to book hotel rooms for their customers at a ClubHouse Inn & Suite using the 'KL' chain code, while consumers can access ClubHouse properties through all major Internet travel sites, by calling 1-800-CLUB-INN, and on ClubHouse's own Web site at .
