Creative Vistas Enters U.S. Cable Market Through Agreement with Major U.S. Cable Company

WHITBY, Ontario--(Business Wire)--Creative Vistas, Inc. (OTCBB:CVAS), a leading provider of advanced
video security and surveillance solutions and broadband-related
services, today announced that it has signed a two-year service
contract with one of the largest cable providers in the U.S. The
contract marks Creative Vistas' entry into the American cable and
broadband market.

   Under the contract, Creative Vistas' Cancable division will
provide installation and repair services for customers in and around
New Orleans, including the parishes of Orleans, Jefferson, St. Bernard
and St. Charles. The service area has a population of approximately
723,000, according to 2006 Census estimates. The contract extends to
2010.

   Services being provided by Creative Vistas under the new contract
include triple-play installation of video, voice and telephony, both
new and reconnecting services, trouble-shooting of existing service
problems and sales of new services to existing customers. The Company
will also provide its certified trainers to launch the service program
while working with locally-hired technicians who will undergo an
intensive four-week training program. It also will use its business
intelligence software, Webtracker IE, to track the quality of the
service being provided and to give the cable operator online access to
the data.

   "The signing of our first service contract with one of the
top-tier U.S. cable providers could be one of the most important
milestones so far in the Company's history," said Creative Vistas'
Chairman and CEO Sayan Navaratnam. "It is a substantial, tangible,
revenue-producing step in the execution of our strategy to take our
highly successful cable and broadband provisioning business model into
the huge cable markets of the U.S. Most significantly, it is a
green-field expansion. Creative Vistas is entering the New Orleans and
U.S. markets not by acquiring a new operating unit but by winning
customers to its existing operating units.

   Mr. Navaratnam continued, "The new contract represents the
company's first opportunity to use its proven business intelligence
software in the U.S. We expect our BI technology to serve two key
strategic aims -- to provide superior customer service in the U.S.,
and to market our own DependableHome suite of products and services.
The execution of this contract is once again a testament to our
excellent management team and employees"
