Owings Mills, MD - ABIS, Inc., a leading provider of traditional direct marketing services, makes a
focused effort to provide current industry news and resources to clients and other relevant parties.

For this reason, ABIS would like to make mailers within its network aware of the USPS' postage cost
increase, effective on May 12, 2008.

It is currently established that costs for First-Class mail, Standard Mail, Periodicals, Package Services,
and Special Services will increase by 2.71% to 2.889% this year. This increase is permitted to take
place annually, in accordance with the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act.

The USPS also notes that First-Class Mail single-piece additional-ounce pricing has shown no sign of
change thus far, and lower costs will be implemented for additional-ounce pricing for presorted First
Class Mail letters and pound pricing for Standard Mail saturation and high-density rates.

In anticipation of these changes, ABIS has updated their online Postal Rate charts. You can view both
the current and new postage rates (effective 5/12/08) at www.abis.com/resources.htm - ABIS clients
will also receive a new rate grid via email for all classes - First, Standard, and Non-Profit. Please
