Karlsruhe (euro adhoc) - Karlsruhe, 25 June 2007 - asknet AG (ISIN:
DE0005173306), one of the leading providers of outsourcing solutions
for global software distribution via the Internet (Electronic

With Sunbelt Software and ParetoLogic, another two major US software
providers have opted for the asknet eDistribution solutions. In the
second quarter of 2007, the European online shops of these two
providers of security software were transferred to the asknet
technology platform.

Furthermore, asknet succeeded in adding the German software provider
AquaSoft, which offers programs in the graphics, multimedia, image
database and learning software fields, as well as the Spanish
software dealer tekoem to its customer base. For tekoem, a variety of
dealer shops will be set up successively with asknet technology and
handling of transactions will be transferred from the third quarter
of 2007 onwards.

The Russian software provider ABBYY is expanding its existing
partnership with asknet. The company is one of the leading providers
of document recognition, form processing and linguistic software and
has already been handling its online sales in Europe through asknet
for two years. The second quarter of 2007 now also saw the launch of
ABBYY´s US shop based on asknet technology.
