Industry Leaders Deliver EBPP Technology to High-Volume
Billers in Mainframe Environments.

Xenos Group (TSE: XNS), a leader in software for online statement
and bill presentment, and Just in Time Solutions, a leading provider
of Internet billing and interactive customer care software, today
announced a strategic partnership to deliver a comprehensive
electronic bill presentment and payment (EBPP) solution. This
bilateral agreement allows the two companies to implement jointly a
premier EBPP solution for clients seeking the best-of-breed choice for
high-volume online presentment and electronic payment of customer
bills.
The partnership between Xenos and Just in Time will provide
customers of both companies with the total Internet bill presentment
and payment package. Through its world-renowned transform technology,
Xenos will provide print transformation capabilities to convert legacy
print streams into a variety of outputs, including XML. That data then
can be rendered by Just in Time's BillCast(TM) software and turned
into an interactive EBPP application.
"This relationship allows Xenos to deliver leading-edge
technology to the pure EBPP marketplace with the addition of Just in
Time's turnkey, comprehensive payment solution," says Martin Heenan,
President of Xenos Group. "Customers also can use Xenos' scalable
solution to seamlessly handle multiple data inputs, on multiple
operating platforms, and then present these bills for payment in any
of the 'big four' Internet presentment standards: HTML, PDF, TIFF and
XML."
"With its transformation technology, Xenos has just the right
expertise in electronic document presentment that provides the perfect
complement to our existing BillCast Data Translation Module," says
Douglas S. Thompson, President and CEO of Just in Time Solutions. "Our
agreement will enable Just in Time to deliver a robust, scalable data
translation solution to high-volume billers in mainframe
environments."
