InfoTech USA Announces Partnership with SLPowers in Managed Services; Partnership Leverages Growing Industry Trend towards Mana

InfoTech USA, Inc. (OTC BB: IFTH), a majority-owned
subsidiary of Applied Digital (NASDAQ: ADSX), announced today that it
has entered into a partnership with West Palm Beach, FL-based SLPowers
to deliver managed services solutions to its core market area in
Northern New Jersey and Metropolitan New York City and beyond.
Pursuant to the agreement, InfoTech will be able to resell SL Powers's
Guaranteed Networks(R) solution, a customizable suite of integrated
services designed to support and maintain a company's computer network
systems for a set monthly fee.
   Commenting on the partnership, InfoTech President and CEO Jay
McKeage noted, "The partnership with SLPowers is a key element of the
restructuring program we are implementing at InfoTech. By entering the
dynamic and complex Managed Services field with an experienced partner
like SLPowers, we are moving ahead with our plan to increase
higher-margin, recurring service revenues, while maintaining our base
business of product sales. Following our recent workforce reduction,
we are now making the necessary changes to our business model to move
InfoTech towards growth and profitability, and towards an enhanced
ability to differentiate ourselves competitively in this
rapidly-changing technology environment."
   SLPowers President Rory Sanchez added, "We are very excited about
the partnership with InfoTech, and the opportunity to extend the
market reach of Guaranteed Networks to their core market area and
nationwide. By leveraging the strengths of both companies in what has
become a complicated industry, we expect this to be a mutually
beneficial expansion strategy that will allow us to quickly deliver
our solution and gain market share in new geographies."
