SCITX Expands Operations to Latin America

Santa Cruz, CA, February 25, 2002.

SCITX today announced it's expansion into Sao Paulo, Brazil. This extension of SCITX will be known as BRTIX.

"As a company, it is our goal to take our end-to-end infrastructure with state-of-the-art data centers to the next level, and that means globally." said Arlin W. Bleclic, CEO and Founder of SCITX and BRTIX. "We are not experiencing the same difficulties that many of our larger competitors are experiencing during our current economic crisis. We see a very strong need for managed hosting and services worldwide and we wish to fulfill that need."

SCITX's new location offers many of the same benefits as their data center in Santa Cruz, including consulting, managed services and security solutions.

"We see Latin America as just one of many regions that are hungry for the sophisticated hosting solutions that we here at SCITX can provide." said Benjamin Toker, VP of Marketing and Sales for SCITX. "BRTIX is just the first of many satellite facilities we will be opening in the coming years."

The new center will allow BRTIX to complement its full range of business Internet Technology services -- including connectivity on a global network, applications, web hosting and support, and turnkey solutions -- with enhanced product offerings which will provide customers with advanced co-location facilities on a more global basis. BRTIX will also offer customers a comprehensive range of productivity-enhancing managed services and consulting to run their e-business effectively.

"End-to-End solutions are more important in the Latin American market than in the U.S. market," said Mr. Toker. "Customers in the Latin American market are very driven to single-source shopping. They want one source that can serve as a general contractor for their growing outsourcing needs."
