Jean-Pierre Poulin, President of Point de Vente Inc, commented, I believe becoming part of Q Comm will provide the resources necessary to take advantage the opportunities throughout Canada as we migrate retailers from cards to Q Comm terminals. We have been using the Q Comm terminals with excellent results and feedback from retail locations. Now as part of Q Comm well have the ability to install terminals with more retailers throughout Canada."

Terry Kramer, CEO and President of Q comm. added, We are very pleased to have Jean-Pierres organization become part of Q Comm. Point de Ventes distribution agreements with the largest wireless providers in Canada are coveted because the wireless carriers are selective in granting distribution rights. Using the strength of Q Comms technology, organization and financial resources Point de Vente can offer its network, encompassing hundreds of retailers, our Qxpress solution. Jean Pierre will spearhead our Canadian expansion and will report directly to our Vice President of Sales, Darin Hunsaker"
