Press Release Body: Vertabase, a leading developer of project management software,
today announced the acquisition of Palo Alto, CA-based Accomplice and its task
management software.

Accomplice provides a simple and effective way for users to manage to-dos, goals and
notes, and then synchronize this information with their teams. Activities may be
sub-tasked, prioritized, scheduled, delegated and tracked. Supporting information -
e-mail, documents, rich text and web links - may also be turned into notes and
linked to activities.

For greater flexibility, Accomplice may be integrated with Microsoft Outlook and
synchronized with smart phones. Task management and sharing is as easy as e-mail,
but much more effective. Accomplice may be installed directly on a Windows PC or on
a U3 Smart USB flash drive for portability between PCs, and it works both on- and
off-line.

Accomplice patented desktop software was first publicly recognized at the DEMO 2006
conference by Executive Producer, Chris Shipley, as the first task management
product that is "effective enough to become a habit". Since its subsequent
commercial release, Accomplice has garnered a strong worldwide following, ranging
from individuals to small-and-medium businesses to Fortune 50 organizations.

"We are very pleased to announce this acquisition," said Mark Phillips, CEO,
Vertabase. "We welcome Accomplice's 30,000 registered users to the Vertabase
community and look forward to further enriching their user experience. Accomplice is
extremely useful for many people because it simplifies the management of tasks and
to-dos by providing a coherent, unified alternative to separately managing
information in e-mails, in spreadsheets, on whiteboards, on sticky notes - and
anywhere else people keep it."

"Furthermore, Accomplice has seamless integration with Microsoft Outlook and enables
users to synch this information with mobile devices and then share it with other
users. Accomplice is a great product and an excellent addition to the Vertabase
family," Mr. Phillips added.

"I'm very excited about this acquisition," said Jason Feinsmith, Co-Founder and CEO
Emeritus, Accomplice Inc. "Vertabase, with its strong customer orientation and
expertise in project management software, will take Accomplice software to the next
level. With Mark's leadership, our customers will get an ever-improving product and
a great customer experience. We are pleased to be joining Vertabase's growing line
of market-leading productivity tools."
