Viyya Technologies on Track for Success

Business Wire
John Bay, CEO and founder of Viyya Technologies, Inc. (Pink Sheets:
VYON), the developer and marketer of the world's most advanced,
web-based information management application, issued a letter to
VYON shareholders this morning. The text of the letter follows: Now
that this year is drawing to a close, it is appropriate to look
back at 2006 in light of the visions and objectives outlined in our
March letter to shareholders and assess our progress as a company.
We have made considerable investments in the future of our company,
and we�d like to describe each investment and the payoff received
or expected from each. Let me begin by telling you about the
proposed acquisition of SaraX Software. This past fall, after
examining the total cost of ownership, we decided not to pursue the
formal acquisition of this company. The primary reason was cost of
ownership with related payouts approaching $5,000,000; in the
opinion of management, this would have been too much strain for our
growing company. Rather, Viyya Technologies has pursued the
acquisition of various intellectual property assets from other
organizations. This process will provide us with the components
necessary to move forward with our vision without straining our
cash resources. The Business Intelligence and Knowledge Management
markets continue to soar, and now more than ever, we at Viyya
Technologies believe we have the necessary products, tools and
services to become a market leader. We have spent the past nine
months building on our vision, and we are proud to provide you with
the following results: First, we continue to grow and improve our
core VIYYA� technology solution. We believe there is no better
technology available today for information extraction, processing,
dissemination, distribution and management. Our proprietary
XScript� technology stands in a class by itself and is the core
extraction utility in the VIYYA� process. This growth has been
accomplished with three versions of VIYYA� � VIYYA� Professional,
VIYYA� for the Enterprise and VIYYA� for the ISP/Portal Provider.
VIYYA� Professional is currently being released for beta testing
through our website with the production release and revenue
generation scheduled for late January 2007. VIYYA� for the
Enterprise and VIYYA� for the ISP will follow in February. We
currently are releasing the products to more than 25 ISPs and
Enterprise customers for beta and product evaluation. We believe
revenue will be generated late Q1/07 and we anticipate a major,
positive response. The customers for these releases have been
following the product through the two ISPCON Shows our company
attended in 2006 � Baltimore in June and Santa Clara in November. A
white paper has been authored and is now available on the Viyya
website describing the three products and their respective
functionalities. Second, we developed technological advancements in
VIYYA� by incorporating enhancements that provide a �service� based
solution and conform to today�s robust Service Oriented
Architecture (SOA). This objective has been accomplished with the
current release of VIYYA�. VIYYA� now runs as a service for
consumers or on a server for ISP�s or enterprise/corporate usage.
We are currently in discussions with advertisers and are evaluating
the implementation of a new business approach to adapt to the
Internet model of advertising-based revenues. Third, our path of
leading-edge product development was dependent on the world�s
leading technologists, and we continue to enhance our staff with
more world class talent from the United States and Europe. We
currently have five such consultants onboard � each with a prime
expertise, guiding us down the right path with the right
technology. A good example of this development is the current
release of the VIYYA� Intelligence Portal or VIP. The VIP brings
together all of the components of our technologies into one unique
and innovative portal environment, including document imaging,
retrieval, storage and management. Fourth, we began a campaign to
pursue various vertical markets such as Homeland Security and
Government, Fortune 1000 and the ISP arenas � and each area has
begun to blossom. The sales cycle on large engagements for our
products is approximately six to 12 months. We anticipated the
cycle to begin Q4/06 and it has already begun with the contract
from NJ Department of Human Services. We believe we will have one
or two more contract announcements this quarter, and we currently
have a pipeline of more than 100 opportunities in the three
vertical target markets. Some opportunities have the potential of
up to $750,000 per year in recurring license revenue while others,
such as the ISP market, would be based on the number of licensed
users per ISP; the ISP opportunities may range from 1,000 to
5,000,000 users per ISP. Fifth, Viyya Technologies committed to
become more visible to potential clients and investors. We again
delivered on this promise and entered into a variety of
relationships with public relations and marketing organizations. We
also released a new website in October to more accurately reflect
the vision of our management team and Viyya Technologies� corporate
transformation into a multi-faceted, multi-product company. Lastly,
we believe Viyya Technologies and its shareholders are still in the
right place at the right time. Our additional goals for technology
in 2007 will be described in future press releases as will our
sales contract closures. As with all businesses, there comes a time
for the �rubber to meet the road� � for Viyya, 2007 is that time!
We hope to become profitable and generate $2 million to $4 million
in revenue through 2007. We believe we have the tools and products
available to transform information into intelligence, as well as
the management team with the skill and commitment to get the job
done. We are all personally committed to building a great company,
providing increased shareholder value and making Viyya Technologies
a success for all involved. We will keep everyone updated by
providing additional letters and press releases to the media or by
posting events on our website at www.viyya.com. In addition, please
feel free to call me at 973-795-1310; I am always available to
answer any questions you might have about the company. Thank you
again for your continued support, loyalty and interest in our
company. Sincerely, John Bay President & Chief Executive
