Press Release Body = J-Tel Holdings today announced a decision to consolidate their
interests in contact centre outsourcing businesses around the world under a single
global brand with effect from 1 March 2007.

Steve Morphett, Chief Executive Officer of Stellar Call Centres, the leading
Australian contact centre outsourcer owned by J-Tel, has been appointed to the
position of President and Chief Executive Officer of the global Stellar business.
John Hollingsworth, Chief Operating Officer of Stellar Call Centres, will take up
the reigns as Chief Executive Officer of Stellar Asia Pacific.

The new global brand will now encompass 19 call centre facilities across the globe,
including nine contact centres in Australia, one contact centre in the Philippines,
seven contact centres in Canada and two contact centres in the UK. In addition, the
global brand will include the recently formed Australian company Stellar Business
Process Solutions, which specialises in document management, workflow automation
technology and business process outsourcing services.

The transition to a single global brand for all the businesses will ensure a
consistent approach to global markets, harness the full power of the global pool of
business talent and provide a uniform global brand under which the company will
market itself.

"The new global brand brings together a number of previously separate brands,
including Excell Contact Centres and Stellar Call Centre Solutions, which have been
highly successful in their respective domestic markets," said Steve Morphett. "We
expect continued strong growth across our existing domestic markets, and look
forward to penetrating the US market with our new offshore offering in the
Philippines."

The global brand now employs over 6,000 staff and manages in excess of 300 million
customer interactions every year on behalf of some of the world's largest and
well-known brands. The new brand poses a significant challenge to some of the
established global outsourcing players due to the specialist domestic focus each
company has, combined with the strength and support of a global organisation.

John Hollingsworth, newly appointed Chief Executive Officer of Stellar Asia Pacific
said "I look forward to leading the Australian and Asia Pacific operations into the
future, and to continuing our high level of commitment to our clients and our
innovative Open Book Management philosophy".
