AccessIT to Pay Quarterly Interest in Cash

  
    
  
  
    
      Access Integrated Technologies, Inc. ("AccessIT") (NASDAQ:AIXD), 
      today announced that it would pay quarterly interest, due September 30, 
      on its $55 million Senior Notes in cash rather than to exercise its 
      option to pay interest using its shares of common stock.
    
    
      “Despite uncertainties in the capital markets, 
      we continue to believe in the future of our company and our ability to 
      navigate through these choppy waters to continue our progress. With that 
      mindset, giving up equity at this time makes no sense,“ 
      said Bud Mayo, chairman and chief executive officer of AccessIT. “Although 
      progress on certain initiatives has been slowed by the condition of the 
      credit markets, most of the company’s plans 
      continue to move forward. We remain optimistic that we can begin Phase 2 
      shortly, and that the capital markets will return to stable levels again.”
