World Poker Tour Raises The Stakes With CryptoLogic
17 March, 2008

NEWS

SOURCE: Press Release

(Dublin, Ireland) — CryptoLogic Limited, a world leader in Internet gaming software, announced today the extension and expansion of its relationship with World Poker Tour® (WPT), one of the world’s top gaming brands.

Under the arrangement, WPT Enterprises Inc. (NASDAQ: WPTE) will expand its Internet casino offering, add Spanish and German language Internet poker rooms and extend its exclusive use of CryptoLogic software until at least mid-2011.

“In less than one year, CryptoLogic and World Poker Tour have teamed up to deliver an exceptional on-line experience for casino and poker players all over the world,” said Brian Hadfield, CryptoLogic’s President and CEO.

“CryptoLogic’s collaboration with WPT is another great example of our success in building and growing relationships with the world’s top gaming and entertainment brands – for mutual benefit.”

CryptoLogic sees World Poker Tour as one of the world’s most promising gaming brands, with huge potential for growth in player volume and revenue as WPT markets and leverages its television properties in the fast-growing European market.

The addition of the Spanish- and German-language poker rooms should also add valuable liquidity and many new European players.

WPT Enterprises began using CryptoLogic’s software on its site, www.worldpokertour.com, in 2007, enabling players to enjoy both Internet poker action and a mini-casino of 13 top games.

In addition to adding multi-language poker capabilities and extending its agreement with WagerLogic Ltd., CryptoLogic’s wholly-owned subsidiary, WPT has exercised its option to upgrade to a full Internet casino with more than 200 games.

“Our partnership with Cryptologic — particularly their reputation, proven software and liquidity — has been a key element in delivering a superior World Poker Tour gaming experience for fans in the international space,” said Steve Lipscomb, CEO and founder of WPT Enterprises.

“Expanding and extending this relationship allows us to take the WorldPokerTour.com brand to a higher level.”
