AUGRID PURSUES OPPORTUNITIES FOR DHS CONTRACT

AuGRID Corporation (OTCBB:AGRD) announced today that it has engaged a strategic alliance with EmInSys, Inc. to further the development and marketing of AuGRID's Codestar program, a state-of-the-art Airport Security System and Emergency Notification Software.

Under this agreement, AuGRID Corporation and EmInSys, Inc. will pursue funding from the Department of Homeland Security's FY2004 $9.1-billion budget for Emergency Preparedness.

These particular grants call for "ultimately reducing the need for disaster assistance" by more effectively communicating emergency situations to the correct agencies in real time.
