Longest Handcuffed Swim: Filmmaker Breaks World Record

Online Casino Sponsors Event to Help Raise Money for Charity

NOVEMBER 21, 2006, CAMBODIA -- GoldenPalace.com, the internet casino famous for their unusual and
often outrageous advertising campaigns, has done it again by sponsoring Canadian director Matt Frame’s
record-breaking feat for the world’s longest handcuffed swim.

Matt made the brutal 5.8 kilometer (3.1 nautical miles) swim from Koh Kteah to Serendipity beach without the
benefit of a wetsuit or any help. The Guinness people have officially confirmed this to be a record-breaking
swim.

Matt made the swim to raise awareness for the Joe Bodia foundation. Named after the character in his latest
film, the follow-up to his 2003 feature “Bagdad or Bust”, the foundation is dedicated to raising money for
underprivileged Cambodian children. Matt has been living in Cambodia for the past 19 months and has
witnessed first hand the cycle of poverty that many children are faced with.

“Of course I am doing this for publicity,” said Matt. “We have tried conventional routes of fundraising but the
results have been disappointing. Still, there are many people out there that will take the time to read about
our goals and decide to help because they see the big picture. If my swim gives more skeptical folks reason
to believe, so be it.”

“This is another great chance to help a worthy charity and get some publicity at the same time,” said
GoldenPalace.com CEO Richard Rowe. “Many of the children in Cambodia are living well below the poverty
line and we encourage everyone reading this to contribute whatever they can to help. We are honored to
have been involved with this event and commend Matt on his amazing, record-breaking swim.”
