LAVAL, Quebec -- 20-20 Technologies Inc. (TSX:TWT) -

Transaction Highlights

- Following the acquisition, 20-20 will be the world leading vertically integrated ERP, engineering and manufacturing software solutions provider for the kitchen, office and configurable furniture industries, with over 200 customer installations of vertical ERP manufacturing solutions in North America and Europe.

- 20-20 thus achieves the last critical step in establishing the leading global end-to-end solution for its targeted industries.

20-20 Technologies Inc. (TSX:TWT), a world leader in 3D design and sales software, computer-aided design and manufacturing solutions for the interior design product industries, today announced its intention to acquire 100% of the outstanding share capital of Virtual Systems International, Inc. of Raleigh, North Carolina ("VSI"). The transaction is subject to certain conditions, including satisfactory due diligence on the part of 20-20, and is expected to close within the next 30 days.

VSI develops, markets, sells and integrates manufacturing software solutions for a number of medium to large manufacturers in North America's woodworking industry. These industry specific solutions can be integrated with various horizontal ERP solutions, including JD Edwards, Mapics, Sage and Microsoft Great Plains. VSI was founded in 1993 by its current President, Klaus Gueniker, a cabinetmaker from Germany by trade who obtained a subsequent degree in furniture production in the U.S. The firm now employs 27 people and has developed a leadership position based on a deep understanding of industry-specific business processes. VSI staff includes both the former CEO and the former COO of MBI North America, a unit of MBI Software Company, a vertical ERP provider based in Germany that was recently acquired by 20-20. In 2004, VSI's second-generation integrated manufacturing IT solution (InSight) was launched at a trade show in Atlanta. Since then, VSI's products, including its CAD and CAM solutions, have been implemented by major kitchen cabinet, office furniture and institutional casegoods providers and component suppliers throughout North America.

The management team of VSI, which comes with a wealth of European and North American experience in the manufacturing sector, is expected to remain with 20-20. Mr. Gueniker will, following the acquisition, continue to manage the VSI team and all related activities.

In addition to the incremental market share obtained as a result of this transaction, 20-20 will be adding complementary products to its portfolio, with little overlap with existing products. 20-20 believes its ProdManager and VSI's InSight products can be easily integrated, as both products are built on the same development and database tools.

"This is the last critical step in establishing our global presence and a solid platform for our end-to-end solution offering for 20-20's addressable vertical markets," said Jean Mignault, CEO of 20-20. "The combination of our expanding 20-20, MBI and VSI product portfolio and implementation teams completes our comprehensive end-to-end solution and assembles the most competent resources in manufacturing CAD, engineering, CAM integration and vertical ERP applications in North America and Europe. InSight's modern engineering automation and shop floor execution systems should also bring benefits to 20-20's MBI, ProdManager and CMS customers in Europe."

Jean-Francois Grou, President and COO of 20-20, added: "Following the acquisition, 20-20 will be the largest provider of manufacturing vertical ERP solutions in North America, with over 35 manufacturer customers, and the clear leader worldwide, with over 200 manufacturer customers, for the kitchen, office, closet and configurable furniture industries."

VSI recorded revenues of US$3.4 million for the twelve months ended September 30, 2005 and is profitable.
