NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Java Capital Inc. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:JCI.P) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement in principle dated effective September 24, 2010 with Peak Positioning Corp. ("Peak"), pursuant to which the Company will acquire (the "Acquisition") all of the issued and outstanding securities in the capital of Peak (the "Peak Shares"). The Company is a "capital pool company" and intends for the Acquisition to constitute its "Qualifying Transaction," as such term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). The Acquisition is an arm's length transaction. Upon completion of the Acquisition, it is expected that the Company will be a Tier 2 Technology Issuer. Peak is a private company with an office based in Montreal, Quebec. It was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act on May 3, 2004. Further information concerning the Company can be found at SEDAR online at www.sedar.com. Peak Positioning Corp. Peak is a Montreal-based IT security solution provider, and creator of the "HomeWave" service. HomeWave is a patent-pending wireless based remote security, forensic analysis and asset location service for reported missing notebooks, netbooks and PDAs. The HomeWave service was developed to help businesses fight the growing problems associated with the loss and theft of portable computers and devices by providing a way to use wireless communications to remotely disable lost or stolen portable computers and devices, as well as to remotely determine what, if any, files were accessed on the missing systems while they are still missing. HomeWave is the result of years of research and collaboration between Peak and global leaders in the fields of hardware engineering, wireless communications and location-based technologies. The HomeWave service can wirelessly initiate communication with a missing portable computer, rather than to wait for the computer to be connected to a network or the Internet before it can be communicated with. The service is provided on a SAAS (Software as a Service) model, for which clients pay a monthly license subscription fee. HomeWave can be self-serviced and/or managed from any corporate IT department, and is expected to be officially launched in the North American market in early 2011. Peak was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act on May 3, 2004. Peak's share capital consists of an unlimited number of class A common shares (the "Common Shares"), and class B preferred shares, of which only 3,499,207 Common Shares are issued and outstanding. Peak's top three shareholders are Prosys-Tech Corp. (TSX Venture: POZ) with 47.46% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, followed by Johnson Joseph with 14.83% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, and Varujan Tasci with 12.87% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. As at June 30, 2010, Peak's unaudited second quarter financial statements showed current assets of $224,873 and total assets of $255,068 against current liabilities totalling $491,358. Peak had no long-term liabilities as at that date, and a net loss of $85,600 for the six-month period as it prepares to commercialize its HomeWave service. The Acquisition In consideration of the Peak Shares, the Company intends to issue an aggregate total of 30,000,000 common shares to the shareholders of Peak, at a deemed price of $0.12 per share, for an aggregate total consideration of $3,600,000.

Forward Looking Information This press release contains forward-looking information. More particularly, this press release contains statements concerning the prospective qualifying transaction of the Company and Peak and its HomeWave service. The information about Peak and its HomeWave service contained in the press release has not been independently verified by the Company. Although the Company believes in light of the experience of its officers and directors, current conditions and expected future developments and other factors that have been considered appropriate that the expectations reflected in this forward-looking information are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on them because the Company can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions (including, but not limited to, assumptions on the marketability of the HomeWave service) and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information. The terms and conditions of the prospective Qualifying Transaction may change based on the Company's due diligence on Peak and its products and services (which is going to be limited as the Company intends largely to rely on the due diligence of other parties of the Acquisition and Concurrent Financing to contain its costs, among other things), the success of the Concurrent Financing, regulatory and third party comments, consents and approvals and the ability to meet the conditions of the Qualifying Transaction in the required timeframes. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date hereof and the Company undertakes no obligations to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable securities laws. Conditions of the Acquisition Completion of the Acquisition is subject to a number of conditions, including the parties completing their respective due diligence reviews, completion of the Concurrent Financing, and TSXV acceptance, which may, among other things, require disinterested shareholder approval and/or sponsorship. In such situation, the Acquisition cannot close until the required shareholder approval is obtained. There can be no assurance that the Acquisition will be completed as proposed or at all. IAS, subject to completion of satisfactory due diligence, has agreed to act as sponsor in connection with the Acquisition. An agreement to sponsor should not be construed as any assurance with respect to the merits of the Acquisition or the likelihood of completion. Pursuant to the policies of the TSXV, trading of the Company's shares will remain halted until the requirements thereunder have been satisfied and the Acquisition is completed. Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the management information circular or filing statement to be prepared in connection with the Acquisition, any information released or received with respect to the Acquisition may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading in the securities of the Company should be considered highly speculative. The TSXV has in no way passed upon the merits of the proposed Acquisition and has neither approved nor disapproved the contents of this press release.
