IDAHO SPRINGS, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 14, 2004

TNTI (OTCBB:TNTI) announced today an expansion of its sales effort in Arizona.

The company recently received its permanent license or certification from the Arizona department of Gaming. A company must obtain this certification before it can conduct any business with any casino in the State. It requires an extensive background check of all principals in the company. Ten Stix is also required to have a license with each individual casino or tribe that is interested in acquiring any of the company's products. Ten Stix already has licenses with Yavapai Prescott, and Fort McDowell. Several more licenses are expected soon. Tony Cranford, Chairman/Vice President for Ten Stix Inc., says Arizona casinos now operate approximately 300 blackjack tables statewide.

"Since Arizona is the first state to mandate Automatic Shufflers on every blackjack table, and the fact that the slot machines in Arizona do as much as ten times what the same slots do in Las Vegas, it only makes sense for us to capitalize on our State certification," Cranford says. "We have requests from virtually every casino in Arizona for some of our products. Our sales staff from Las Vegas and Colorado will handle the state."

Cranford comments on a recent article, "Our ProShuffle(TM) was featured in Casino Enterprise Management Magazine (CEM), discussing player satisfaction, pricing, portability and the importance of duplicating a dealer's hand." Cranford explains, "Instead of the dealer shuffling they simply place the cards into the ProShuffle(TM), friction and gravity shuffle the cards just like a dealer." Cranford continues, "We were pleased with the article about Ten Stix and our ProShuffle(TM), (CEM) is a reputable trade publication with over 12,000 readers in North America."
