Extenway Solutions Inc. ("Extenway") (TSX VENTURE:EY) continues to expand on the
Quebec market, with Gatineau's Centre de sante et de services sociaux (CSSS)
Foundation choosing to equip 414 hospital beds in Gatineau and Hull with
Extenway bedside terminals, following a call for tender. The terminals will
replace the television sets currently in use.


Extenway's technology offers a complete range of services in a single device:
digital television, Internet, movies on demand, radio, games, the possibility to
call a nurse, access to the hospital's various documents and forms, bed
management, access to medical files, video calls, and communication with the
foundation and the hospital.


The Gatineau and Hull hospitals will be the company's first clients to benefit
from a wireless Internet network, a technical innovation recently developed by
Extenway. The terminals will run exclusively on this wireless network, which
will be made available in the two establishments.


"We are delighted that Gatineau's CSSS Foundation has put its trust in us by
choosing the Extenway solution. It shows that our terminals fit with new
technological trends by combining digital entertainment and medical content in a
single device, at the patient's bedside", said John McAllister, President and
CEO of Extenway.


"Following a comprehensive selection process, we decided that the Extenway
solution was the one best suited to our current needs, as well as our long term
requirements, for our hospitals and, especially, for our patients. Among other
things, the integration of wireless technology means we will be able to benefit
from technological opportunities that have been unattainable until now. For us,
it's a win-win-win solution", said Marc Villeneuve, executive director of
Gatineau's CSSS Foundation. 


Extenway and the Gatineau's CSSS Foundation will finalize a definitive contract
in the next few weeks, during which time they will fix a schedule for
implementing the solution. The agreement is conditional on the finalization of
financing following an agreement with a financial institution and announced on
March 22, 2010, which, subject to certain conditions, will provide Extenway with
term loan facilities of up to 25 million dollars.


As previously reported, the Extenway terminals are already in service at the
CSSS du Lac-des-Deux-Montagnes, the Jewish Rehabilitation Hospital of Laval, and
the Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center of Brooklyn (New York).
