Visual 2000 And Datec Partner To Integrate Retail And Production Technologies

MONTREAL and ZLIN, Czech Republic — August 7, 2012 — Visual 2000 International Inc. and Datec
Retail Systems, Inc. have formed a technology and marketing alliance that will enable the companies
to integrate and jointly distribute the Visual 2000 End-2-End™ and Datec Point-of-Sale (POS)
fashion solutions worldwide. Under the terms of the agreement, Visual 2000 will distribute Datec
retail solutions in the North American fashion market. In addition to marketing the integrated
solutions, Datec will also perform system implementations and offer full customer support services
for the full range of Visual 2000 software solutions in the Czech Republic, Slovenia, and the
Netherlands.

“We are excited to partner with Datec to bring the combined power of these two solutions to
the global fashion industry,” noted Charles Benoualid, Visual 2000 Vice President of Research and
Development. “By working closely together, our companies will deliver a much higher level of value
chain integration than was previously available. From a commercial perspective, this helps both
companies expand geographic distribution and strengthen customer support capabilities. All of this
drives increased value for our clients.”

Visual 2000 End-2-End enterprise software is designed specifically to accelerate and manage
the design-to-delivery lifecycle of fashion and soft goods products. Key functional components of
the fully integrated, modular solution enable brand manufacturers and vertical retailers to improve
efficiencies and remove costs from their merchandising, design, product development, sourcing,
production, distribution, and sales processes. Datec POS systems provide retailers with the latest
in touch-screen terminals, multimedia functionality, internet and email integration, and data
collection through a secure, online POS transaction connection. Both systems utilize the latest
Microsoft® programming, database, and internet technologies.

According to Jindrich Hegmon, Datec Chief Executive Officer, “Today’s 24/7, multi-channel
fashion sales environment requires vertical retailers and brand marketers to eliminate functional
and visibility gaps from the entire concept-to- consumer product lifecycle. Teaming with Visual
2000 gives us the opportunity to create a seamless flow of information from design to
point-of-sale. This breakthrough will give our customers a sustainable competitive
advantage.”
