"We've selected a highly capable group of individuals that will be utilizing both progressive PHP and Flash to build VSP, a sales and local/small business advertising tool like no other in the industry. The team includes two top-level developers, a cutting-edge graphic designer and a seasoned Flash creator. We feel confident that VSP will be developed well in line with our schedule moving forward as we continue to market the service toward an attractive lineup of LOI's for launch," states Audette. The company will be taking a hands-on approach to create the best possible platform with potential to roll with the industry changes and customer needs as they come. "We'll be working in line with commentary/feedback from Strategic's Marketing team in regards to the overall needs of the marketplace," states Audette. "The process is creating what is not only a streamlined production tool, but maybe even more so, a powerful sales & marketing machine with the ability to take local listings to the next level with layered, user-friendly features and applications. The development includes an overall 'face-lift,' both aesthetically and technically, including a strong user-interface and added functionality." Audette continues, "We've already found in these initial stages of development that there are applications within the VSP technology that reach beyond the IYP marketplace, thus giving us the potential for additional, cost-effective revenue streams and profits. Some of these include value-added services to video ad distribution and exposure such as CPM, SEM and Mobile web. Further, we're encouraged by the interest from industry insiders in this initial phase regarding the VSP platform." In line with these developments, the company released 1st year financial projections in this week to bring perspective to shareholders as to the potential inherent to the platform and its applications. "Once we've evaluated additional potential for the product and have announced LOIs toward the launch of VSP, we'll be putting out numbers that may be more reflective of our true potential moving forward, but the first year's will be based on the industry interest we've received so far in line with the current VSP features and services for IYP clientele, small businesses and otherwise," concludes Audette. The development team will be submitting progress reports to SMPP Executives frequently and Strategic intends to release VSP development benchmarks via press release as they are met. In line with this, the company will be launching a live test site so that shareholders and prospective customers may witness the progress to launch. All involved are looking forward to a launch of the platform later this year.

(http://www.rovion.com), a privately held Boston-based developer of the innovative InPerson virtual spokesperson ad unit. Founded in 2001, Rovion offers a broad range of online advertising products and services to its active client base of more than 1,000 companies in the automotive, e-commerce, entertainment, food-related, healthcare, retail, services and sports industries. Rovion's client list includes industry-leading brands such as Chevrolet, Ford, Toyota, Food Network, Sony Pictures, and Summit Entertainment; and major advertising agencies such as Digitas, Saatchi & Saatchi, and J. Walter Thompson. Rovion InPerson technology has also been used to represent celebrity spokespeople such as Megan Fox, Lebron James, Tiger Woods, Matt Lauer and Lamar Odom. The acquisition of Rovion as an additional business unit is expected to provide DigitalPost the following benefits: * Substantial additional revenue, potential expense ratio reductions. * Technology to incorporate online video into ads that reach millions of highly targeted users through the Web's largest publishers. * The creation, delivery and reporting of rich media ads as a turn-key solution for ad agencies. * The ability to offer businesses high performance ad units with a 5% Click-Through average. While, the $40 billion online industry average click-through-rate (CTR) for traditional display or banner ads ranges from 0.01% to 0.1%, and rich media claims a 1.0% average. In contrast, Rovion InPerson ads boast an average CTR of 5.0% over more than five years of verified data. DigitalPost Chief Executive, Michael Sawtell, commented: "This acquisition significantly increases our base of annual revenues and enhances our growth potential as well. Online rich media advertising is growing rapidly, with most estimates projecting double-digit annual revenue growth through 2012. Our goal as DigitalPost/Rovion is to make InPerson video technology available to businesses of all sizes in all markets." Under terms of the agreement, DigitalPost will acquire Rovion for restricted common stock. The acquisition is expected to close within 30 days. Rovion's operations, management and technology team would remain in Boston, while the DigitalPost corporate headquarters will remain in Irvine. Rovion Chief Executive, Brian Goss, remarked, "Everyone at Rovion is excited to join the DigitalPost team. The synergies that exist between our respective platforms will deliver immediate and significant benefit to the expanded organization. We look forward to working together to create innovative technology that significantly changes the way businesses advertise on the web." Adding Rovion gives DigitalPost a second very viable business unit, creating a much bigger footprint on the Web, instant additional revenue, and the ability to quickly drive business growth by optimizing the combined company's technology and sales strength and targeting the $40 billion online advertising market.

(OTCBB: ABHD) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that ongoing efforts are underway in order to place AbTech and its water cleaning Smart Sponge technology at the forefront of companies attempting to aid in ongoing, long term, oil cleanup efforts in the Gulf of Mexico, where current estimates suggests the disaster is the largest accidental oil spill in history with 4.9 million barrels of oil released into the Gulf waters. The Company has registered with the Deep Horizon Command Center, and is a registered vendor in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida. AbTech has also submitted individual and joint consortium proposals to the Interagency Alternative Technology Assessment Program (IATAP) and is currently in various phases of testing with the Incident Command Centers in the Gulf region. Additionally, AbTech's Smart Sponge has been acknowledged by the U.S. Coast Guard as having a "Potential for Benefit" and the Company is working with local contractors in a concerted effort to deploy its products in order to aid in restoring this fragile and valuable environment. AbTech's Smart Sponge products configured expressly for this tragic event consist of both absorptive and filtration devices offering specific remediation value unlike other commonly used suppression methods. Deployed behind containment booms, oil is absorbed immediately on contact and in published tests Smart Sponge has achieved 10 minute absorption rates of 8.6:1 for Kuwait Light Crude and 3.4:1 for North Slope Crude. The product offers less expensive, non-hazardous disposal because once oil is absorbed, the Smart Sponge transforms the pollutants into a stable solid for easy recycling, providing a closed-loop solution to water pollution. It is worth noting that AbTech Industries originally certified its Smart Sponge technologies for Oil Spill Recovery in 1996. Since that time AbTech has garnered extensive expertise through its concerted focus on Stormwater, Industrial, Military, and other remedial applications, and as a result, AbTech products are currently deployed in over 13,000 locations, in 36 states, and various countries around the world. Significantly, the Environmental Protection Agency lists AbTech's Ultra-Urban Filter series with Smart Sponge technology as a Best Management Practice (BMP) under the federal guidelines that local governments must follow. From a management perspective, and as previously announced, AbTech Holdings has entered into a Letter of Intent ("LOI") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of AbTech Industries, Inc. At the closing of the Transaction, AbTech Industries will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the board of directors and management of AbTech will become the board of directors and management of the Company. Details of the company's business, finances, appointments and agreements can be found as part of the Company's continuous public disclosure as a reporting issuer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") EDGAR database. About AbTech Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: ABHD) Abtech Holdings has entered into an agreement to acquire Abtech Industries, an environmental technologies firm dedicated to providing innovative solutions to communities and industry addressing issues of water pollutants and contamination and its products are based on polymer technologies capable of removing hydrocarbons, sediment and other foreign elements from still (ponds, lakes and marinas) or flowing water (curbside drains, pipe outflows, rivers and oceans).
