BUNGIE SOFTWARE SCORES KEY PLAYER TO LEAD EXPANSION

Apple executive Peter Tamte to head Bungie Publishing

CHICAGO—April 22, 1999—Bungie Software is pleased to 
announce that Peter Tamte, currently Senior Director of 
Consumer Marketing for Apple Computer, Inc., will soon join 
Bungie as Executive Vice President of Publishing. Tamte has 
been responsible for Apple's consumer marketing worldwide 
under the direction of Steve Jobs, Apple's interim CEO.

But Tamte is eager to return to the industry where he got his 
start. As he recently noted, "the Internet is creating 
tremendous opportunities in entertainment that most 
traditional publishers are not ready for. Bungie is in a unique 
position to help drive this change through its three internal 
development studios and through leveraging its successful 
multiplayer gaming site, bungie.net, in innovative ways. Most 
of all, as one of the only publishers intimately involved 
in game development, Bungie is in a much better position to 
work with third-party developers to deliver the most 
compelling content possible."

Thus far nearly all of Bungie's games, including the multi-
award-winning "Myth" and "Marathon" franchises, have been 
internally developed. In his new role, Tamte will put his 
considerable talents to use building Bungie Software into a 
premier publisher for both internally and externally developed 
titles.

Tamte brings a wealth of practical experience to the job. 
Before joining Apple, Tamte founded software publisher 
MacSoft and grew it to become the largest publisher of 
Macintosh consumer software worldwide. MacSoft is a unit of 
GT Interactive, a leading global publisher of entertainment and 
edutainment software for personal computers and game 
consoles. Prior to MacSoft, Tamte was director of sales 
and marketing for The WizardWorks Group, the creators of "Deer 
Hunter".

Based in Chicago, Bungie Software is a rarity in the electronic 
entertainment industry, a private corporation dedicated to 
both developing and publishing outstanding, immersive 
electronic games that surpass the boundaries of conventional 
technology and provide compelling and highly repeatable play. 
Makers of the hit games "Myth: The Fallen Lords" and "Myth 
II: Soulblighter", Bungie was recently inducted into the Inc. 
500 as the 101st fastest-growing private company in the 
United States. For more information, surf to
