      Little Rock-based Acxiom® 
      Corporation (Nasdaq: ACXM) (www.acxiom.com) 
      today announced an exclusive credit report portal for resellers via 
      ClearStar.net, a leading proprietary software application that is 
      popular among background screening resellers. By streamlining all users 
      through ClearStar.net’s single interface, 
      resellers will experience increased cost savings for credit data. The 
      new credit report offering from Acxiom will not have a required minimum 
      for resellers.
    
    
      “We have worked closely with TransUnion to 
      maintain a new outlet for resellers to access credit reports directly,” 
      said Mike Cool, business unit leader of Acxiom’s 
      Risk Mitigation’s background screening 
      division. “We have selected ClearStar.net as 
      our third-party platform to offer credit data to end-user companies 
      because of our shared commitment to integrity, security and compliance 
      in the handling of sensitive data required by the screening process. 
      ClearStar.net’s large and diverse 
      distribution network tracks each touch point of applicant data, from 
      point of entry to receipt by the end user. We are confident of 
      ClearStar.net’s responsible stewardship of 
      the data.”
    
    
      “Providing credit files is a critical 
      component in the service offerings of resellers in the employment and 
      tenant screening sectors of the risk mitigation industry,” 
      said Robert J. Vale, chief executive officer of ClearStar.net. “Through 
      this partnership, we can provide secure, reliable and cost effective 
      access to Acxiom’s invaluable data for 
      resellers who depend on our mission critical technology to support their 
      operations and be a driving force in their business strategy.”
