For Immediate Release November 6th, 2001 SOLARNET PROVIDES INTERNATIONAL HOTELS DISTRIBUTION TO 450,000 TRAVEL AGENTS Vancouver, BC, November 6th, 2001 - SCS Solars Computing Systems Inc. ("SCS"), a provider of information technology solutions for the travel industry, announced today that it has entered into a Letter of Intent with Online Distribution Systems Inc. (“ODS”) to provide worldwide travel agent distribution through SolarNet. ODS, operates a proprietary reservation system for small hotels who lack the ability to accept real-time reservations over the web. With more than 300 hotel properties in 70 destinations in Europe and Asia, ODS has one of the largest databases of independent hotels in Europe and Asia. The addition of SolarNet’s global distribution through the major Global Distribution System/Computerized Reservation System (“GDS/CRS”) networks will make ODS’ database available to 95% of the worlds retail travel agents. The business opportunity created by this partnership is particularly significant when you consider: (1) that many of the hotels hosted by ODS can only be accessed through the ODS proprietary reservation system, and (2) that ODS’ database of international hotel properties is a natural compliment to SolarNet’s existing inventory of air consolidator fares that travel agents utilize daily to book international air fares for their clients. The agreement calls for SCS to host the ODS hotel property database within SolarNet to enable travel agents to view and book the ODS hotel property inventory in real-time from their desktop GDS terminals. The partnership will be based on a service bureau model with ODS paying SCS a transaction fee for every travel agent booking done over SolarNet. Online Distribution System Inc.
