KEWILL ACQUIRES ASSETS OF POINTANDSHIP SOFTWARE, INC.

Adds cloud-based software for parcel shipping & expense management to its market leading shipping solutions set

December 19, 2011 - Kewill plc (Ticker: KWL) ("Kewill" or the "Group"), the provider of software solutions that accelerate global trade and logistics, today announces the acquisition of the assets of Pointandship Software, Inc. ("Point&Ship").  With this acquisition, Kewill adds cloud-based software for both parcel shipping and shipping expense management ("SEMS") to its already market leading portfolio of shipping solutions.  Gross assets acquired were $1.8m (approx. £1.2m).

With Point&Ship's Software as a Service ("SaaS") based SEMS™ solution, Kewill will now be able to provide multi-carrier shipping direct from the office-based worker's desktop for large, small and medium enterprises (SME) that have significant small package shipping requirements and who lack or prefer not to maintain an in-house infrastructure.  Aligned with all Kewill products, SEMS was designed and built on a foundation of deep domain expertise and shipping experience.

"We are very pleased to be adding Point&Ship's SEMS to our range of shipping products", said Paul Nichols, Chief Executive of Kewill. "In line with our strategy, we are now able to support the largest enterprises as well as the SME market with both on-premise and SaaS based shipping solutions. This enables us to not only offer scalable choices for the market, but also supports our expanding VAR, reseller, and partner channels."
