Allegiance Completes Strategic Acquisitions of Two Compliance and Ethics Hotline Companies

Acquisitions Solidify Industry Leadership Position and Bolster Company's Growing Customer Base


SALT LAKE CITY, UT--(Marketwire - June 5, 2007) - Allegiance, the leading provider of on-demand enterprise feedback management (EFM) solutions, today announced that it has completed the strategic acquisitions of two Virginia-based companies, Resultor, LLC and Confide, Inc. Both organizations provide multi-platform ethics and compliance hotline services. As a result of the acquisitions, Resultor and Confide customers will be upgraded to SilentWhistle, the Allegiance Web and phone-based ethics hotline solution, and operations for both companies have been consolidated into Allegiance's headquarters in South Jordan, Utah.

"The acquisition of these two leading organizations follows a number of important achievements for our company," said Adam Edmunds, president and chief executive officer of Allegiance, Inc. "In the past 10 months, we have secured a major partnership with Thomson Financial, acquired the nation's leading phone-based ethics hotline company, National Hotline Services, and raised more than $5.7 million to help accelerate our growth. In addition, for the previous quarter, we saw the number of new SilentWhistle customers increase by nearly 80 percent when compared with the first quarter of 2006. All of the accomplishments, including these two acquisitions, support our strategy to solidify Allegiance as the premier provider of EFM solutions."

SilentWhistle's Web-based reporting tool and phone-based service are completely integrated to provide the most complete and comprehensive ethics reporting solution available. Anonymous feedback submitted through the Web system or collected via the phone is captured in the same format and stored in the same Web-based management console, allowing administrators to review and resolve all feedback through a single interface. This case management system categorizes and routes the feedback to administrators, executives or board members responsible for providing a timely and appropriate response.

Edmunds added, "SilentWhistle is a trusted whistleblower hotline solution used by both private and public organizations, including the U.S. government and leading healthcare and financial institutions, which are all part of highly regulated industries. Our customers use SilentWhistle to promote their commitment to integrity, build strong ethical cultures and comply with regulations such as SOX section 301. We look forward to supporting the ongoing ethics and compliance hotline needs of Resultor and Confide clients."

The Allegiance whistleblower hotline solution can be accessed at anytime in multiple languages, and as a third-party, hosted solution providing guaranteed confidentiality and anonymity for users. For more information about SilentWhistle, visit www.silentwhistle.com.
