LOS ANGELES, CA —February 17, 2006 — Los Angeles-based Globat.com®, the world-leader in Performance Web Hosting™, today announced it sponsored a Master of Business Administration student’s term paper covering Globat.com’s marketing activities and industry stature. The student, Jesse Fernandez, came up with the idea of seeking sponsorship when his school raised its tuition feeds. The result paper was graded with full marks, an A+.

Jesse was delighted at the success of the venture: "The school I am attending recently raised my tuition 17.6 percent; that increase has made financing my education more challenging. I am excited that an industry-leader like Globat decided to support my efforts and help finance my education with their purchase. Thank you Globat—�

� “As a business that helps its customers pioneer in their industries and develop and deliver new ideas daily, it seemed natural for Globat.com to support Jesse's novel idea," said Ben R. Neumann, President and CEO of Globat.com. “We think this might be the first time a company has sponsored a student for a single term paper, but I'm sure it won't be the last."�
