About PTA Holdings, Inc.:

PTA Holdings, Inc. ("PTA") is a diversified holding company with a core focus in the travel industry. Originally, the Company was formed as an internet kiosk company for commercial transactions. The Company broadened its focus with the acquisition of Professional Travel Alliance, Inc. which paired the power of a full service travel agency, travel agent training school and a travel kiosk company.

Using the economic capital and strength from the recent commencement of trading as a public company, the Company intends to launch its Travel Kiosk in a rollout to various first tier shopping malls in the United States. The Company has received letters of interest from Fortune 500 companies to both place ads and commerce in their kiosks. The Kiosks utilize state of the art technology including flexible architecture and plasma and/or LCD high definition displays. These kiosks, when fully deployed shall generate multiple revenue streams in the forms of both advertising and point of sale.

The Company is embarking upon an "Acquisition and Roll Up" strategy in order to take advantage of the fractious business landscape currently existing with travel agencies. Management maintains that as a public entity, it is ideally positioned to initiate a "roll up" of travel agencies which it anticipates will dramatically increase the Company's revenues and net income. A secondary benefit of acquiring independent travel agencies is the ability to cross-sell complementary products and services into those distribution channels with direct purchaser contact.

About ProFlow, Inc.:

ProFlow specializes in full service automotive repair with an emphasis on fuel systems. ProFlow was founded by a veteran of the NASCAR automotive racing circuit. Presently, ProFlow operates two automotive centers and has plans to open additional corporate owned centers and franchises in the future with a short term goal of 10 locations in the southeast. The fuel savings technology was developed by the company's founder over the last decade including significant NASCAR winning experience.
