JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- a21, Inc. ("a21") (OTCBB:ATWO), a leading online digital content marketplace, today announced a series of strategic initiatives to strengthen the organization and create the corporate structure necessary to support continued growth of the Company both organically and through acquisition. Laura B. Sachar of StarVest Partners has joined the Board of Directors, CEO Search Committee engaged with DHR International, and the Company has reincorporated in Delaware.

"With these initiatives we strengthen our Board of Directors, provide the platform for effectively securing a CEO for the Company's next growth phase, and establish the corporate flexibility to pursue our strategy," said Albert H. Pleus, Chairman and CEO of a21. "With the addition of Laura to our team, we are adding a highly experienced and accomplished Internet visionary who brings valuable insight, contacts, and resources to our organization. Through our reincorporation and increase in authorized capital stock, we now have a capital structure that will support our acquisition strategy."

Ms. Sachar, an Internet investor pioneer, brings a deep background and a vast network of relationships in the digital media industry. She is Founder and Co-Chairman of StarVest Partners, L.P., a lead investor in a21's $15.5 million private placement, which included a $5 million investment from Morgan Stanley.

In addition to being a member of a21's Board, Ms. Sachar is on the Board of Newgistics and MessageOne and was an active Observer on the Board of Connected Corporation prior to its being acquired by Iron Mountain. In 1992, she founded Sachar Capital, Ltd., a financial advisory firm specializing in digital media, where she worked with leading visionary entrepreneurs and investors. During her financial merchant banking and venture capital experience, she identified investments in several high performing digital media companies. Prior to founding StarVest, she was responsible for direct venture capital investments at Gabelli Securities, Inc.

"a21, Inc. has done a tremendous job in developing an online digital content marketplace for the professional creative community," said Ms. Sachar. "The a21 platform offers unlimited potential to grow as an efficient resource for photographers, artists, designers, publishers, and others seeking compelling content that adds value to finished product."

As an investor in StarVest, Douglas W. McCormick, formerly the Chief Executive Officer of iVillage, has joined the a21 search committee to identify a CEO for a21's next phase of growth. Previously, Mr. McCormick engineered the merger of iVillage and Women.com Networks, Inc., creating the number one online media company for women. iVillage was recently sold to NBC Universal for $600 million. He brings 20-plus years of accomplishment and leadership in the entertainment, broadcast, and new media industries.

McCormick joins other search committee members including Pleus, Sachar, C. Donald Wiggins, a21 Director, and industry luminary Philip N. Garfinkle, who previously served as CEO and Co-founder of PictureVision, which was acquired by Kodak, and is a21's Interim President and COO. The Committee is working with DHR International, a top-five search firm, which has already been engaged by a21 to lead a national search for a CEO for the next phase of the Company's growth.

As part of the reincorporation, a21 filed a merger agreement on July 31, 2006. This merger effected a change in a21's state of incorporation from Texas to Delaware.
