The company also announced that current employees and previous management have agreed to convert all of their existing debt and back salaries into Series APreferred Stock at twenty five cents a share ($0.25). The Series A Preferred Stock will have a liquidation preference over common stock and the same voting rights as common stock.

Management debt and back salaries had accounted for roughly 29% of all the outstanding debt of Quintek Technologies, Inc.

His experience with corporate financing issues and the capital markets will be a benefit to the company and all its shareholders." Mr. Steele continued, "We feel that the market for our products is far larger than the previous management team was able to address and we plan to aggressively move the company forward to meet the needs of this market." Mr. Haag stated, "Building financial strength to support a solid growth plan is a core concentration in moving Quintek forward. The decision of our employees and previous management to convert into equity well above the current market price is a strong vote of confidence towards our plan of achieving this goal. I look forward to being of service to Quintek and its shareholders by helping this company become the dominant player in this industry."
