WEST PATERSON, N.J., July 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Interactive Systems
Worldwide Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: ISWI) today announced today that its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Global Interactive Gaming Limited ("GIG"), and
Hipodromo de Agua Caliente S.A. de C.V. ("Caliente"), have revised their
licensing and technical support agreements originally signed in August 2006.
    In connection with these revised agreements, GIG will provide software and
services that enable Caliente to offer the Company's enhanced play-by-play
sports betting service on-line on Caliente's Internet website.  It is expected
that this version will launch in time for the upcoming American football
season, and will run through the end of the calendar year.
    Caliente is operating the play-by-play betting service using its own
personnel. The wagering opportunities will be offered in both English and
Spanish to the patrons. GIG will provide initial set-up support, software
customization, and will provide on-going technical assistance. These services
will be provided on a "time and materials" basis. The agreement specifies an
up-front payment to GIG, as well as monthly license fees based on a share of
the revenue derived from the enhanced play-by-play betting service.
    Under these revised agreements, the SportXction(R) System will no longer
be offered in the Race & Sports Books operated by Caliente.
