Group West Systems Ltd - News Release

Group West Systems completes acquisition of Wescom Computer

Group West Systems Ltd GPW
Shares issued 6,210,229 Jul 20 close $1.10
Wed 21 Jul 99 News Release
Mr. Jag Sandhu reports
Group West Systems Ltd. has completed the purchase of all the outstanding
shares of Wescom Computer Services Ltd. for a maximum purchase price of
$1-million. As reported in Stockwatch June 8, 1999, this acquisition by
Group West has subsequently been approved by the Toronto Stock Exchange.
Wescom is a Victoria, B.C.-based company that specializes in supplying
solutions to the public sector at provincial and local levels. Their public
sector clients include prominent municipalities and other public sector
organizations in B.C.
To satisfy the purchase price, Group West will pay the current shareholders
of Wescom $200,000 in cash. The balance will be paid in common shares of
Group West on an earn-out basis over four years at a deemed price of $1.70
per share. This amounts to a potential earn-out of 470,588 shares on the
basis of one share for every $1.70 in net income before tax of Wescom
Computer Services Ltd.
This acquisition provides Group West with unlimited access to Wescom's
software, which is aimed at the local government marketplace. This market
is viewed as a significant area of opportunity for the application service
provider (ASP) model, as there is a high degree of similarity in the system
requirements from one municipality to another as well as pressure on local
governments to economize.
