COLUMBUS, Ohio & GREENFIELD, Flintshire, Wales--(Business Wire)--
Exacter, Inc., patent-holder and provider of proprietary electrical utility
reliability technology and services announced today that it has awarded an
exclusive sales, marketing, and distribution agreement for UK and Ireland to
Poletecs Ltd of Greenfield, Flintshire, Wales. 

Poletecs Ltd is the UK`s leading provider of pole inspection, asset management,
and pole maintenance. Winning the Exacter technology allows them to extend their
product offering to current customers by providing reliability monitoring of
electrical components on overhead electrical lines. The additional ability to
provide "health assessments" of pole assets is a great value to electrical
utilities. 

"There is nothing like Exacter technology in the UK," stated Poletecs Director
Steve Horsman. "With Exacter information, we can now provide our utility
customers with the ability to remove faulty equipment before failure, prevent
power outages, and harden their distribution systems for improved reliability." 

The decision by Exacter to engage Poletecs was based on their experience with
U.S. alliance partner, Osmose Utilities Services, Inc. "Like Osmose, Poletecs is
their country`s leading provider of asset management/pole management services,"
stated Larry Anderson, VP of International Business for Exacter. "With the
various Exacter product offerings, Poletecs can simply expand services to their
existing customer base without having to develop a new market. We believe that
is a formula for success." 

Poletecs Limited is the first international company to be awarded an Exacter
alliance sales and service agreement. Exacter is currently in negotiations with
several similar in-country service organizations in Asia, Europe, and the
Pacific Rim. "We have patent-pending status in the top 45 industrial nations
around the world, and over the next two years expect to have alliance partners
in many of the key utility markets," Anderson says. "We are unique in that we
have a breakthrough technology that also has a proven business model. That is
rare. It allows us to be selective in choosing proven alliance partners like
Poletecs and Osmose that are positioned for success." 

Exacter`s patented proprietary technology identifies overhead line equipment in
fail-condition providing a pre-fail alert to utilities - allowing them to take
pre-emptive maintenance action to avoid outages, eliminate erroneous arcing
noise, and ultimately, improve overall distribution reliability. More than 100
North American utilities have used/are using Exacter technology and services
since the company`s launch in 2007.
