"Neil provided a tremendous amount of value during Call Genie's critical foundation stages," according to Michael Durance , the Company's Chief Executive Officer, "and his experience, guidance and direction are greatly appreciated by the Company's shareholders. The entire Call Genie team thanks him for his contributions and wishes him every success with his upcoming endeavors."

"I am extremely proud of what Call Genie has accomplished and I believe that Mike and the management team he has assembled will guide the Company to an even brighter future," commented Neil Frizzell .

The options, expiring on March 1, 2011, are exercisable at $0.94 and were priced in the context of the market at the time granted.
