COLUMBUS, Ohio & CAROLE PARK, Queensland, Australia--(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 Australia to Pole
Foundations LTD of Carole Park, Queensland, Australia. 

Pole Foundations LTD is one of Australia`s leading providers 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 Australia," stated Pole Foundations
Managing Director Mark Blyton. "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. Our plan is to introduce Exacter technology at the Energy 21C
Exhibition in Melbourne, this September 6-9." 

"Pole Foundations 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, Pole Foundations can
simply expand services to their existing customer base without having to develop
a new market. We believe that is a formula for success." 

Pole Foundations LTD is the third 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 Canada, Mexico, Asia,
Europe, and the Pacific Rim. "We have patent-pending status in the top 55
industrial nations around the world, and over the next two years expect to have
alliance partners in many of the key utility markets," concluded Anderson. 

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. More than 100 North American
utilities have used/are using Exacter technology and services since the
company`s launch in 2007.
