HELIUS INC ALLIANCE PROGRAM OFFERS ENTERPRISE CUSTOMERS UNPRECEDENTED ACCESS TO BROADBAND SATELLITE COMMUNICATION

LINDON, Utah - June 4, 2002 - Helius Inc., the premier developer of technology solutions for seamless broadband communication over satellite and local area networks, today announced several strategic partnerships that enable satellite-based business communication networks to be established more rapidly and efficiently than ever before.

By integrating products and services from world-class satellite technology companies, the Helius Strategic Alliance Program offers customers the opportunity to obtain network components that best meet their needs without the time consuming and costly process of establishing multiple contracts and vendor relationships. The time necessary to create a satellite network is minimized as experts from Helius and Alliance companies combine expertise on behalf of the client.

"The Alliance allows each of us selling satellite and IT connectivity products and services to not only capitalize on our own opportunities, but to bring our customers a complete solution," said Nathan Hatch, executive vice president of Helius Incorporated. "The customers receive a one stop shopping experience regardless of the partner they approach first."

The business advantages of a satellite-integrated network are diverse and include services such as simultaneously providing training to hundreds of remote sales representatives. The network allows live interaction between corporate trainers and the sales representatives without the travel costs and unproductive time that results from regional meetings. Broadcasting live video via satellite eliminates numerous problems that occur when broadband content is sent from a single source to multiple remote locations served by varying routers, switches and bandwidth. A stable and secure broadband network is established by integrating Helius hardware and software with satellite service offered by Alliance members.

In addition to creating numerous customer benefits, the Helius Alliance Program offers participating partner companies the opportunity to share sales leads and benefit from joint marketing efforts. The program also offers comprehensive customer service and support options. The Strategic Alliance Program is focused on helping service providers, hardware and software developers, system integrators, content providers, resellers/VARs, and consultants create and sell products and services that complement or are integrated with Helius products.
