Karlsruhe, 25 June 2007 - asknet AG (ISIN:
DE0005173306), one of the leading providers of outsourcing solutions 
for global software distribution via the Internet (Electronic 
Software Distribution - ESD), has won several new customers.
With Sunbelt Software and ParetoLogic, another two major US software 
providers have opted for the asknet eDistribution solutions. In the 
second quarter of 2007, the European online shops of these two 
providers of security software were transferred to the asknet 
technology platform.
Furthermore, asknet succeeded in adding the German software provider 
AquaSoft, which offers programs in the graphics, multimedia, image 
database and learning software fields, as well as the Spanish 
software dealer tekoem to its customer base. For tekoem, a variety of
dealer shops will be set up successively with asknet technology and 
handling of transactions will be transferred from the third quarter 
of 2007 onwards.
The Russian software provider ABBYY is expanding its existing 
partnership with asknet. The company is one of the leading providers 
of document recognition, form processing and linguistic software and 
has already been handling its online sales in Europe through asknet 
for two years. The second quarter of 2007 now also saw the launch of 
ABBYY´s US shop based on asknet technology.
With these new additions to its business, asknet will realise an 
additional sales potential of some EUR 7 million on a whole-year 
basis.
In the ePortals business segment also, a new customer has been added.
TU Berlin is another university that has opted for using asknet´s 
established portals for the academic sector. Via its specially 
designed procurement portals, asknet supplies over 70% of German 
universities with software products.
