Horizons: AE Restructuring Plans

From the desk of David Bowman:

June 16, 2004

Over the past 48 hours Artifact Entertainment has made a tough decision to restructure its workforce and streamline operations, therefore improving the company's overall financial health. While there were layoffs involved, staff responsible for supporting the company's principal product, Horizons, are very much on board and at work. Artifact Entertainment will continue to provide quality support to Horizons players.

We are actively helping those impacted by the reductions in staff in acquiring new employment. They have done excellent work and we wish for them to swiftly find other opportunities.

This restructuring has already significantly improved the company's situation. We're committed to the Horizons community and value the relationships we have with our loyal fans.

David Bowman
President - Artifact Entertainment
