DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 23, 2002

AXCESS Inc. (Nasdaq:AXSI), a leading provider of advanced technology security and asset management solutions, today announced it has received notice from NASDAQ that it does not comply with the minimum $35 million market capitalization rule (Marketplace Rule 4310 (c)(8)(C)) for continued listing on the exchange based on the share price of its stock. As a result it will be de-listed from the NASDAQ SmallCap Market at the open of trading tomorrow and will become immediately eligible for trade on the OTC Bulletin Board.

"There have been a number of recent events that have demonstrated we continue build value in our products and in the development of our marketing channels, both necessary elements for growth. Unfortunately, those events have yet to be translated into a higher share price for our stock. We will continue to work toward building value and hope to regain our listing in the future," said Allan Griebenow, President & CEO of AXCESS Inc.
