LEGACY ENTERTAINMENT REVEALS DESIGN OF HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED $700,000,000 BEIJING HAICHANG OCEAN PARK SLATED TO OPEN IN 2027

Beijing, China, and Hollywood, CA, USA, December 2, 2024 – Legacy Entertainment,  a leading theme park and resort design company, and its subsidiary, The Aquarium Design Company, have revealed the design of the highly-anticipated Beijing Haichang Ocean Park. Located adjacent to Universal Studios Beijing in the city’s Tongzhou district, the 150,000 square meter (1,614,586 square foot) facility will rank among the world’s largest aquariums upon its debut in 2027. The project is being developed in partnership with Beijing Tongzhou Urban Construction and Operation Group (TCJ). This project also marks the second cooperation that the Legacy Entertainment team has worked with Haichang, China’s leading Marine Life Park operator. Entrusted by TCJ, Legacy is working along with TCJ and Haichang Group to create a facility in this crucial market. Regarding today’s news, Barry Kemper, Legacy’s Chief Operating Officer and one of the owners of the Company, said, “Following the success of our design work at Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park, which opened in 2018, we are honored to now have this opportunity to create an all-new Ocean Park for Beijing. Visitors familiar with Haichang’s other properties will be delighted to see that for the Beijing Park, we have imagined something completely shocking and truly unique there.” The popular Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park recently reported record attendance, having hosted 4,200,000 visitors in 2023. Mr. Kemper notes that unlike its sister park in Shanghai, the upcoming Beijing Haichang Ocean Park will be primarily set indoors, accounting for the region’s harsh winter climate. To bring the ambitious project to life, Legacy has assembled a team of industry-leading talent, with collaborators including Hetzel Design, Visual Terrain, Management Resources / ProFun, and Rabben Herman Design Office. Working together with Haichang under the shared vision of creating “the aquarium of the future”, the team has designed a next-generation facility which incorporates all the latest trends in environmental design, guest experience, and animal husbandry. According to Mr. Kemper, the importance of the new Beijing project extends far beyond this one development for Legacy Entertainment. Says Kemper, “Beijing Haichang Ocean Park is the first step in the next wave of tourism development in China. Legacy has been the market leader in the design of themed entertainment attractions throughout China for nearly two decades now, and the upcoming Beijing Haichang Ocean Park is only the first in a series of incredible new projects we have in the works there. The confidence from both private and government entities in China to prioritize this massive undertaking is a sure sign that the future of location-based entertainment continues to shine brightly in the world’s fastest-developing tourism market.” ABOUT Beijing Tongzhou Urban Construction and Operation Group Co., Ltd.: Beijing Tongzhou Urban Construction and Operation Group Co., Ltd.

LEGACY ENTERTAINMENT, A GLOBAL LEADER IN THE ENTERTAINMENT DESIGN INDUSTRY, TO MAKE ITS DEBUT IN SAUDI ARABIA AT THE MAY 7-9 SAUDI ENTERTAINMENT AND AMUSEMENT (SEA) EXPO WITH NEW FOUR NEW PROJECTS CURRENTLY UNDERWAY IN THE REGION

Hollywood, CA, USA & Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, April 30, 2024 – Legacy Entertainment, the acclaimed designer of several of the world’s largest Theme Parks, Resorts, and Aquariums, will be making its Saudi Arabian debut at May’s Saudi Entertainment and Amusement (SEA) Expo in Riyadh, May 7-9. There, the company will debut its brand new Expo Booth, which has been custom designed specifically for the SEA event. During the SEA Expo, Taylor Jeffs, Legacy’s President and Chief Creative Officer, will be delivering a keynote speech. “Saudi Arabia is the most exciting market in the world right now,” said Eric Carnagey, Legacy’s Managing Director, as well as one of the firm’s owners. “With a combination of vision, talent, and access to capital, there is an opportunity there to transform the way the entire world experiences and consumes the next generation of location-based entertainment.” Despite this being Legacy’s first public showcase in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the firm has been active in the region for several years. Currently, Legacy has four projects in the Middle East at various stages of design and construction. Long known as a dominant themed attraction-design force throughout Asia, the executives at Legacy point out that they have been waiting for just the right opportunity before diving into the Saudi Arabian market “A key part of Legacy’s success over the years has been exercising great discretion in selecting the exact right projects with the exact right partners,” Carnagey adds. “We have waited a long time for just the right opportunities in Saudi Arabia to present themselves, and we are confident that within the very near future, the Legacy brand will be successfully launched in this vital region with the strongest suite of new partners and projects imaginable!” This year’s SEA Expo comes at a pivotal time for the bustling Saudi Arabian market. Despite there only being a few operating Theme Parks available in the region at this time, a recent YouGov study has indicated that 1 in 5 Saudi residents prefer Theme Parks as their go-to leisure destination. “This figure is remarkably strong for a market in its infancy and suggests a bright future for the various parks in that region which are currently under-construction, including Six Flags Qiddiya,” Carnagey concludes.

LEGACY ENTERTAINMENT CELEBRATES A MILESTONE YEAR WITH MAJOR PROJECT OPENINGS AND AN INCREDIBLE PIPELINE OF NEW CREATIONS IN DEVELOPMENT

Hollywood, California, November 2023 – Following a record-breaking year in 2022, Legacy Entertainment built upon its momentum, making 2023 a year notable both for its new project openings, as well as the diversity and scope of a number of new projects which are currently in various stages of design and development. NEW PROJECT OPENINGS DURING 2023: 2023 was a banner year for the firm’s Theme Park, Aquarium, and Retail portfolios, marked most notably by the debut of the Chimelong Spaceship in Zhuhai, China. This colossal project immediately captured the world’s imagination upon its debut, with Britain’s The Sun hailing it as “an out of this world experience.”  Featuring over 4,000,000 square feet of enclosed space, the park officially shattered seven Guinness World Records, including World’s Largest Indoor Theme Park and World’s Largest Aquarium. The massive facility is also home to the world’s largest simulator attraction, with 304 seats on a single motion base. In 2021, Legacy announced its intention to “revolutionize retail” with its Destination Dining initiative – the first of these projects launched to tremendous acclaim during June 2023. Already “the favorite destination for people of Jakarta,” according to NowJakarta, BATAVIA at PIK is a groundbreaking “floating city” retail mall featuring over 50 retail and dining venues overlooking a natural inlet from the Java Sea. Developed by Indonesia’s ASG, the Jakarta Post has lauded the new project as “their latest masterpiece.” LEGACY PROJECTS CURRENTLY IN DEVELOPMENT: Legacy continues to be a market leader in Asia, where the company has already opened projects for Lotte, Chimelong, Haichang, and Vinpearl, among other major industry players. 2023 continued this trend with two, full, new parks in-development with Vinpearl, in addition to mega projects in various stages of design for China, South Korea, and Indonesia. Legacy has also taken its first steps towards expanding into Saudi Arabia, and is currently working with that country’s premier developers on multiple groundbreaking entertainment destinations. This year’s biggest Legacy announcement took place in July, during a signing ceremony in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. There, Legacy’s Eric Carnagey represented the firm in the closing of a major deal to design and develop an all-new Water Park resort intended to showcase local culture in ways never-before-imagined. The project is midway through the design process, with construction expected to begin in early 2024. LEGACY MILESTONES & RECOGNITIONS: This month marks the fifth anniversary of the opening of Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park – the $730,000,000 project has welcomed over 3,000,000 visitors per year since, establishing it as a worthy competitor to the nearby Shanghai Disneyland. Legacy’s other recently opened projects have continued to thrive, with Lotte World Adventure Busan being named by CNN as one of the world’s “Top 8 New Theme Parks,” and the Vinpearl SeaShell Aquarium in Vietnam being labeled “The Best Aquarium in the World” by Attractions 360°. Most recently, Legacy’s Eric Carnagey was included on the “Blooloop 50” list of top industry influencers, alongside top talents from Disney, Universal, Merlin, and others. Regarded as the industry’s highest honor, this recognition reflects not only Legacy’s continued growth, but also smaller accomplishments, including an unprecedented 17,000,000 organic social media impressions so far, year to date. ABOUT LEGACY ENTERTAINMENT: Legacy Entertainment is one of the world’s leading designers of Theme Parks and Aquariums. The company’s signature projects include: Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park, Lotte World Adventure Busan, and The Sea Shell at VinWonders, Phu Quoc. The California-based firm is also active in the arena of resort design, with flagship resort projects having included Studio City Macau and Galaxy Macau. Most recently, the firm opened Batavia – the world’s first, overwater retail mall at Indonesia’s PIK development.
