ISO9.com and ANSI Establish Reselling Agreement for the ISO 9000:2000
Standards
New York, NY and Oakland, CA, December 11, 2000 - ISO9.com and the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) have announced an agreement regarding
U.S. distribution of the ISO 9000 series of quality management system
standards, including the soon to be published ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 9004:2000
standards. ISO9.com sells electronic versions of the Standards on the
Internet at http://store.iso9.com. The new version of ISO 9000 will be
available on December 15.

"Distribution of the ISO 9000 standards is an important step for our
organization," said Glenn Kohner, Founder and CTO of ISO9.com. "Customers on
the Internet expect instant delivery of information. Users on our site are
learning about Internet ISO 9000. It's only natural that they would want
access to the actual Standards."

There are two ways to procure the ISO 9000 standards from ISO9.com. The
Standards, which a company is required to own to be in compliance, will be
offered both independently and bundled with the ISO9.com application. With
the integrated version, companies will be able to view the Standard alongside
their QMS, in a seamless format.
"ISO9.com is one of ANSI's more unique value added resellers in that it has
actually integrated the ISO 9001:2000 standard into its application,"
commented Bob Feghali, ANSI vice president of business development and chief
information officer. "We are committed to fast action in the delivery of the
new ISO 9000 revisions; partnering with ISO9.com will greatly assist ANSI in
our ability to insure a widespread distribution of the complete ISO 9000
family of standards."

Oakland, CA. November 21, 2000 - ISO9.com, the world's first Application

systems in the United States for more than 80 years. As a member of the Board

both international standards and high technology to help the Company achieve
its corporate vision.

highly specialized field, and is uniquely qualified to help us bring our
online vision for the quality and standards industries to fruition."

instrumental in his new role with ISO9.com. His corporate career and
