Business Editors & High Tech/Medical Writers

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 9, 2002

Crescent Communications, Inc. (OTCBB:CCES) announced it has signed a non-binding Letter of Intent to acquire privately held eMedical Records Online, LLC., ("eMRO"), a Coral Springs, Florida, medical software technology company (www.emedicalrecordsonline.com).

eMRO is a privately held company that has developed a unique software platform whereby clients in the medical industry can deliver their applications and data securely over the internet. eMRO's software solution allows legacy based applications to take several large strides towards supporting Internet environments. The software shortens the development cycles for application vendors that need to migrate their products into the ASP space but are concerned about the resources necessary to fully web-enable their applications. By shortening time-to-market for these entities, this approach can accelerate revenue generation for ASPs. Clients can retain their own servers and manage their own security and policies. eMRO delivers its services based upon a subscription basis, and enables the clients to focus on core competencies rather than software management and infrastructure. The system makes HIPPA compliance possible with minimum cost.

The agreement is subject to standard due diligence, representations, warranties, covenants, indemnifications, and conditions customary for transactions of this type and is expected to close by May 31, 2002. The purchase price of the acquisition was not disclosed.

"This is another opportunity for Crescent to fully integrate itself as a leading edge 'Last Mile' software and connectivity solution for the medical industry," stated Manfred Sternberg, CEO. "With these platforms running over our secure medical network, we can deliver a host of services and products to the medical community via our secure HIPAA compliant network."

"eMRO is very excited about CCES' acquisition, this new partnership will truly allow out company to empower healthcare professionals to provide cost effective patient care management," said Michael Reale, Sr Vice President of eMRO. At closing, Mr. Reale will join the management team of CCES. Prior to forming eMRO, Mr. Reale was Vice President for a $1.5 billion revenues technology division of Xerox; COO of Boca Research, Inc a publicly held technology company and Director of Manufacturing for the PC division of IBM.
