Jacuzzi Appoints David Broadbent Vice President & CFO

CHINO HILLS, Calif. - (September 23, 2008) - Jacuzzi announced that David Broadbent has been appointed Vice President & Chief Financial Officer, effective today. He will oversee Jacuzzi's financial operations globally and will report directly to President & CEO Tom Koos.

He joins the luxury bath products and hot tub manufacturer after most recently holding the post of corporate vice president and chief financial officer for Bushnell Outdoor Products, an industry leader in sports optics and outdoor accessories. Prior to that, he held CFO roles at Great Lakes Transportation, Playcore and Arizona Chemical. Each of these companies included private equity ownership similar to Jacuzzi.

Before jumping into the private equity world, David held progressively larger financial leadership positions within Fortune 500 firms. He started his career at Motorola, followed by six years at Proctor & Gamble and another six at Newell Rubbermaid.
