Deer Park,

1999 - QuesTec Imaging, Inc.

signed a three-year Strategic
Alliance and System Integration
Agreement with SISCOM, Inc.
(NASD-BB: SATI) of Boulder,
Colorado. Under this agreement,
SISCOM and QuesTec will work
together to enhance and develop
new information and display
solutions for mainstream

catalyst for the expansion of

systems that can be used for
athletic development and
evaluation, scoring, sports
analysis, television production,
internet broadband distribution
and other media convergence.
"SISCOM
relishes the latent potential
which arises from the layering of
our analytic data mining tools
upon QuesTec’s field-proven
telemetric acquisition
capabilities. Together we can
automatically repurpose existing
client video assets with
unparalleled efficiency,
flexibility and economy so as to
synthesize electronic media
products in real-time for focused
delivery. The synergy between the
businesses of QuesTec and SISCOM
is phenomenal, further, the
technology combination is readily
applicable to many new
opportunities, both
business-to-business and
business-to-consumer", said
Michael J. Ellis, SISCOM Chairman
