quarter 2009, I am pleased to say we are seeing the positive impact of our
newly focused global sales team and comprehensive cost reduction measures.
These efforts are expected to translate directly into sequential
improvements in our top and bottom line financial results. NetSol's
performance improvements are also being driven by some renewed strength on
the customer demand side, particularly in the Asia Pacific region as well

initiatives we put in place to manage the global economic downturn are
yielding material traction, and with a solid global sales pipeline, we are
setting a stronger foundation for NetSol in fiscal 2010."
