Cost-effective connectivity solution enables independent hotels and small- to medium-size hotel chains to link directly to Expedia

August 27, 2007

RSI International Systems Inc. ("RSI") (TSX Venture Exchange: RSY), today announced the deployment of a two-way interface between RoomKey, RSI's fully hosted, centralized, property management software solution and Expedia QuickConnect. The QuickConnect reservation system interface launched by Expedia, the world's foremost online travel network, enables hotels to efficiently link property management and central reservation systems to Expedia - easily automating the exchange of inventory, rates and booking information with all Expedia, Inc. sites.

"We are very excited with the deployment of our two-way interface between RSI's RoomKey PMS and Expedia QuickConnect," said Charles Ku, president of RSI. "We now offer our hotel clients one of the best sales distribution channels available on the Web, which will increase their market penetration, generate higher conversions and increase online sales revenue. Our two-way interface also eliminates manual room inventory, rate management upload and reservation download as it is fully automated from guest reservation to guest check-out after their stay."

RoomKey is the first North American PMS to link to Expedia's exciting new platform and will become a powerful tool for new and existing RSI clients. "Expedia QuickConnect is a win-win for our guests and for our hotel," said Rob Gauthier, managing director of Parc Fifty Five, a 1000 room property in San Francisco that uses RoomKey PMS. "Our guests have real-time access to Parc Fifty Five's guest room inventory, enabling them, for the first time, to book and confirm their preferred room, even at the last minute. Making reservations online is more seamless and hassle-free than ever before, and we can better manage room inventory, giving Parc Fifty Five a tighter hold on our revenue management."
