AGORACOM NEWS FLASH

Dear Agoracom Family,

I want to thank all of you for your patience with us over the past 48 hours and apologize for what was admittedly a botched launch of our new site.

As you can see, we have reverted back to the previous version of the site while we address multiple forum functionality flaws that inexplicably made their way into the launch.

To this end:

1.We have identified 8 fundamental but easily fixable flaws that will be corrected in the coming week, so that you can continue to use the forums exactly as you've been accustomed to.

2.Additionally we will also be implementing a couple of design improvements to "tighten up" the look and feel of the forums.

Sincerely,

George et al

Open EC Technologies, Inc. Receives TSX Venture Exchange Acceptance of the Asset Purchase Agreement to Sell Its Subsidiary, Shenzhen Headware Software System Ltd's China Operations
NORTH VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 27, 2009) - Open EC Technologies, Inc. ("Open EC") or the ("Company") (TSX VENTURE:OCE) is pleased to announce that it has received TSX Venture Exchange acceptance of the Asset Purchase Agreement to sell the China operations held by its wholly owned subsidiary, Shenzhen Headware Software Systems Ltd. ("Headware") to Mr. Zhongdong Zhou ("Mr. Zhou"). A news release with respect to the subject sale was previously issued on February 4, 2009.

As consideration for the sale of the Headware China operations, Mr. Zhou will make a cash payment of $850,000 and arrange for the return of the 11,400,000 common shares to the Company that were previously issued to Happy Clear Investments Ltd and Right Strong Investments Ltd pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated June 22, 2007. The 11,400,000 common shares will be cancelled and returned to the Company's treasury.

Martyn Armstrong, CEO of Open EC states, "With the sale of the China business operations, Open EC will improve its working capital, improve its shareholder's equity by approximately 20% and lower its cost of operations. Overall, the Company will have lower short term revenues, but with the reduced costs and increased working capital, it should improve its financial stability at a time when cash resources are most important.

The increase in working capital will enable the Company to focus its business development in the lower risk, higher margin potential, North American e-business software market through its SoftCare EC Solutions subsidiary. This move will strengthen the Company's ability to continue to grow its profitable EDI software business subsidiary and accelerate its initiatives in the new economy resilient markets of Healthcare and Government Services, primarily in the USA."

Mr. Armstrong advises that, "Open EC will continue to hold its interest in Headware, a foreign China corporation. This will allow Open EC, through its, Headware subsidiary, to more effectively evaluate and develop new EDI business opportunities and partnerships in China which would be complementary to our plans to maximize the revenue potential for our existing e-Business Software Products."
