releases with Rekon-ACS eRecording system.


Press Release Body = Pasadena, CA - January 9, 2006 - Rekon Technologies, a software
provider for lien release and reconveyance preparation, has announced that a second
top 10 servicer is electronically recording lien releases and reconveyances in more
than 20 counties across America. With the Rekon-ACS eRecording system, this lender
is the fifth residential mortgage loan servicer to harness the Rekon system to
prepare and submit lien releases and reconveyances to county recorder offices
electronically and by conventional paper means.

This lender is recognized in the industry as one of the premier, low-cost servicers
who constantly strives to gain competitive advantages through strategic technology
plans. With eRecording, they are able to increase processing turnaround times in
their lien release preparation which improves customer satisfaction as it provides
homeowners and clients the assurance that their loans will be processed in a timely
manner.

A spokesperson from the top national lender says "This is a wonderful achievement
for us and the mortgage loan servicing industry in general. Lenders and servicers
struggle daily with meeting tight deadlines to prepare and record lien releases in
the 3600+ counties nationwide. Having the technology of electronic recording
alleviates the difficulties and reduces errors in recording these documents at
county offices. Implementing the Rekon-ACS eRecording system automates the lien
release preparation process and allows us to offer even higher plateaus of service
to our customers and clients."

"This milestone represents more than just a breakthrough for one servicer; it
represents a change in the servicing industry as a whole as it provides a hope to
both servicers and county offices in managing the widely varying volumes of loans
that result from fluctuating interest rates which can overwhelm both sides of the
spectrum. More significantly, it represents an increasing acceptance of the
electronically recorded document," comments Aurora Marsh, Executive Vice President
of Rekon Technologies.

Utilizing the Rekon-ACS eRecording system, this lender's lien releases and
reconveyances can be prepared and recorded in a matter of minutes in counties that
support electronic recording. A data file from their servicing system is
transferred directly to Rekon, which then populates the necessary fields for the
preparation of a lien release. When the lien release or reconveyance is ready for
submission to the county recorder's office, the lien release document is transmitted
electronically, via the Rekon-ACS eRecording system for recordation. Within minutes
the lien release or reconveyance can be confirmed as recorded and an image of the
lien release with the recording book, page and/or instrument number is returned to
the lender for data retention.

The number of recorders that support eRecording of lien releases and reconveyances
is growing with many of the participating recording districts being larger ones. As
new county recorders come on board, they are added to the Rekon system and are
immediately available to eRecording-enabled servicers for electronic recordation.
This leverages the benefit of Rekon, a dual-delivery lien release preparation
system. The Rekon-ACS eRecording system integrates seamlessly with conventional
paper lien release and reconveyance processes. Traditional lien releases are
prepared and signed on paper before being mailed to the county's office for
recording in public records, which can take between 3-7 days on average. With
electronic recording, the delivery process can be shortened to within minutes of
preparation. Also, because electronically recorded lien releases prepared by Rekon
are tracked and monitored in the same way as conventionally recorded paper
documents, the overhead of maintaining duplicate preparation systems is avoided.

Rekon was the first software available for large scale lien release and reconveyance
preparation since the early 1990s, and today it is the dominant system for loan
servicers. Rekon Technologies continues to lead the industry in technological
advancement as it is the first to integrate an electronic recording platform into
the existing conventional paper-based document processing system to provide loan
servicers a one-stop solution.
