DENVER--(Business Wire)--
Exclusive Resorts (www.exclusiveresorts.com), the world's leading
luxury destination club, today announced the addition of Ian Arthur to
its management team as executive vice president, marketing.

   "We are very excited to welcome Ian to Exclusive Resorts," said
Jeff Potter, chief executive officer. "With Ian's extensive experience
in all aspects of marketing, particularly in the areas of brand
development and strategy, I am confident that he will contribute
significant knowledge and expertise to our marketing efforts."

   Arthur brings more than 25 years of experience in building brands
to his position at Exclusive Resorts, with such well-known brands as
Head, Nike and Frontier Airlines. He joins Exclusive Resorts from his
role at Vail Resorts as Vice President of Marketing and Sales for Vail
and Beaver Creek, a position he held for the past four years. At Vail

the industry leader, the company is redefining luxury travel and
shaping the future of luxury vacations. The destination club concept
has unlimited potential, and I am looking forward to working with the
