MOSCOW, RUSSIA, June 25, 2002 - Hotel and Restaurant Systems (HRS), a leading software developer of country specific solutions for the hospitality industry, today announced successful installation of TRAKO at the GRANDE DUNES Ocean Club in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, USA.

The Grande Dunes Ocean Club has become the fifth Myrtle Beach site working with TRAKO. It utilizes TRAKO in three separate revenue centers. TRAKO allows its members to attend the club and make member charges without carrying any cash or credit cards. TRAKO's member lookup by name feature provides the servers with the ability to charge to members' accounts simply by knowing the members name. "TRAKO also provides us with the ability to auto charge member accounts based upon their member dues category. This feature dramatically decreased the amount of time required to assess reoccurring member dues. We also take advantage of TRAKO's member minimum feature allowing us to easily charge members if they have not met their minimum spending requirements. Considering the exclusivity of our environment it is very important to do everything possible to deliver the ultimate customer experience while minimizing account management costs. TRAKO has been helpful in allowing us to deliver that high level of service and maximize the return on our investment", - said Jeff Norris, POS Administrator of Burroughs and Chapin Company Inc.

About the Grande Dunes Tennis Club

Recalling a past era of genteel Old World grandeur, the Ocean Club at Grande Dunes is destined to rival Europe's most enticing vacation resorts along the coast of France and Italy. With its graceful, Tuscan-accented architecture and stunning landscaping, Grande Dunes' 25,000-square-foot oceanfront clubhouse will soon make its debut within a rich contrast of forested greenery and white sandy beaches. Beachside, guests can bask in the warm sun around a fountain-ed lagoon styled pool. Tropically landscaped, this colorful recreational area is just a dune-walk away from the Atlantic's glistening surf.

Just beyond, marvelous ocean views accentuate an extravagant array of amenities and activities from fine dining to casual lounges, boardrooms, men's and women's locker rooms, as well as full calendar of planned social events and private parties. Culinary excellence is among the Club's most fabulous attractions.
