Press Release

Creative Vistas, Inc. Extends U.S. Broadband-Related Services Contract with Cox Communications

Creative Vistas, Already in New Orleans Area, Will Serve Cable Customers in Baton Rouge, Lafayette and Surrounding Parishes

Creative Vistas Inc. today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary Cancable Inc. has been awarded a new multi-year contract with Cox Communications to provide installation and repair services to cable customers in Louisiana. This will represent the Companys third U.S. service contract, all three with major U.S. cable providers. Revenues from this new contract will be realized by the Company beginning in the current second quarter of 2008.

This new contract is yet another reflection of how quickly we have gained momentum in our drive to become a major provider of broadband-related services in the U.S. following years of rapid growth in Canada, said Creative Vistas Chief Executive Officer Dominic Burns. It is another major step in carrying out the strategy of leveraging our highly successful cable and broadband provisioning business model into the huge cable markets in the US. It also testifies to the growing reputation of our Webtracker BI solution to provide a superior customer experience.

The agreement with Cox Communications Inc., the third-largest cable provider in the U.S. calls for Creative Vistas to serve Cox customers in the Baton Rouge and Lafayette metropolitan areas as well as in 13 surrounding parishes an area ranked 70th in the U.S. for system size. Creative Vistas now has a substantial presence throughout Southern Louisiana, where it also serves cable customers in and around New Orleans (including the parishes of Orleans, Jefferson, St. Bernard and St. Charles) under a contract announced in January 2008.

Since the Company began its strategic move into U.S. cable and satellite markets at the beginning of 2008, it has also signed a contract to serve cable customers in the Charlotte, N.C., metro area.

Services provided by Creative Vistas in Louisiana will include triple-play installation of video, voice and telephony, both new and reconnecting services, trouble-shooting of existing service problems and sales of new services to existing customers. The Company will provide certified trainers to launch the service program, putting locally-hired technicians through an intensive four-week training program. It also will use its Webtracker business intelligence (BI) technology, widely recognized in the broadband industry, to monitor service quality and productivity and to identify upgrade and cross-selling opportunities.
