DETROIT--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 14, 2000

Advanced XML Audio Solutions Give Customers More Flexibility,

Responsiveness

The Maxxar Corporation announced that Computer Consultants Corporation has integrated Open Financial Exchange (OFX) capabilities through Maxxar's Centrum 9000(R) interactive voice response (IVR) system for use by its credit union members.

Computer Consultants Corporation provides operational software and other services to more than 1,000 credit unions located in 44 states and two foreign countries.

Maxxar's XML interface is the underlying foundation driving the OFX-based server. Computer Consultants will use Maxxar's OFX server as a communication interface through Centrum 9000 to the company's next generation host system, Mercury(R). Members of credit unions using Mercury can dial into their credit union and use Centrum 9000 to obtain account information and transfer funds. OFX is a unified, industry standard protocol for the exchange of electronic financial data.

Maxxar's Centrum 9000 family of products offers convenient, 24-hour access to personal account information and services such as account balances and activities, rate information and funds transfers via IVR, Web access, fax, voice recognition and call centers. The company's systems development strategy is to use technology to its fullest, but in a manner that is hidden from the financial institution's customers, thus simplifying the banking experience for the customer.

"Maxxar provides a complete range of business solutions utilizing the latest technologies, which ultimately makes them an invaluable reseller partner," said Hugh Butler, founder and president of Computer Consultants Corporation. "Maxxar is paramount not only in its systems, but in the company's reputation. By using the OFX technology developed by Maxxar, our customers will be able to better manage their network environments."

"Using Centrum 9000, OFX streamlines the delivery of transactions and other financial information from Computer Consultants' host computer system to its credit union members," said Bob Chencinski, president of Maxxar. "This process involves communication between Computer Consultants Corp., transactional servers, and credit union customers."
