Jeremy Hamer, the Chairman of Access Intelligence, commented:

"The acquisition of Management Services 2000, known as MS2M, is, we believe,
another excellent acquisition for Access Intelligence. It has a blue chip
client base among some of the leading banks, building societies and financial
institutions.

With the increasing compliance requirements both in UK and the European Union,
we believe that MS2M has tremendous growth opportunities particularly in the UK
where its "Virtual Compliance Officer" helps companies comply with the
Financial Services Authority's regulatory requirements.

The Group's existing businesses are performing well and the we believe that
they have exciting growth prospects."

FOR RELEASE 7.00AM 20 SEPTEMBER 2006

                            ACCESS INTELLIGENCE PLC                            

           Proposed Acquisition of Management Services 2000 Limited            

   Placing of 25,000,000 new Ordinary Shares at 6 pence per share to raise £   
                                   1,500,000                                   

1. Introduction

The Board of Access Intelligence Plc announces that the Company is proposing to
acquire Management Services 2000 Limited ("MS2M"), which develops compliance
software for the financial services industry, for an initial consideration of £
1.95 million, being £1.5 million plus an amount equal to the cash balance of
MS2M in excess of £300,000, which is estimated to be £450,000. The
consideration will be satisfied as to £1.45 million in cash and as to £500,000
by the issue of 7,598,784 in new Ordinary Shares.

The Company is proposing to raise £1.5 million, before expenses, by way of a
placing of 25,000,000 new Ordinary Shares at 6 pence per new Ordinary Share, in
order to finance that part of the cash element of the initial consideration
which is not backed by cash balances within MS2M in excess of its current
requirements, and for costs, working capital and a provision for an element of
deferred consideration. The equity element of the initial consideration will be
satisfied by the issue of 7,598,784 Consideration Shares to the vendors,
credited as fully paid at the Placing Price.

The issue price of 6 pence per new Ordinary Share represents an 11.1 per cent.
discount to the Closing Price of 6.75 pence per Ordinary Share on 18 September
2006 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this
document).

The purpose of this announcement is to explain the background to and the
reasons for the Placing

2. Background

The Company was admitted to AIM in November 2003 with The Marketing Guild
Limited ("Marketing Guild"), Wired Gov Limited ("Wired Gov") and Backup and
Running plc ("Backup and Running") as its existing subsidiaries. In June 2005
the Company completed a reverse takeover of Ridgeway Technologies Limited, a
leading provider of managed data storage, retrieval and network solutions. In
July 2005, the Company completed the purchase of Due North Limited ("Due
North"), a leading software developer of e-commerce solutions.

The common links between these acquisitions are that they provide practical
services and advice to small and medium sized enterprises ("SMEs"), corporate
entities and governmental organisations. The services provided are recurring
revenue based and provide a foundation for expansion by means of recurring
annual revenues. Following the integration of these businesses, the Company is
now organised into two main divisions:

Data backup and recovery

Willow Starcom Limited ("Willow Starcom"), based in Chorley, provides
specialist IT services across a broad range of market sectors that include data
storage, backup and recovery, network design support and consultancy and
hardware and software maintenance support services. It had revenues for the
year ending 30 November 2005 of £1.72 million, of which recurring revenues
accounted for over £1.18 million per annum.

Backup and Running plc, now integrated within Willow Starcom, provides an
online data storage and disaster recovery service, which the client can
customise to their own requirements. The service offers significant advantages
over other alternative systems in that it backs up automatically and can
provide a complete backup history for at least three years.

Compliance software

Due North, based in Newcastle upon Tyne, is a developer and provider of
e-commerce solutions, primarily to the public sector and emergency services.
The range of products includes an e-tendering module combined with an e-auction
module. Its software is used widely in the local authority sector. It is the
principal supplier to Police Authorities through the Blue Light Portal and also
the Regional Fire and Rescue Authorities. It had revenues for the 15 months
ended 30 November 2005 of £901,000 of which recurring revenues were over £
275,000 per annum.

In addition to these two divisions the Company owns two businesses in the
marketing services and information sector. The Marketing Guild provides
marketing advice and support to small and medium sized businesses in the form
of newsletters, consultancy, lead generation and member's services. Wired Gov
provides an online information service delivering press releases from over 100
government and public sector bodies. Subscribers can customise the service
specifying the agency or topic they require. The Directors expect that these
two businesses, whilst remaining profitable and cash generative, will not
contribute significant growth to the Company in the coming years. Hence, the
Company's growth is expected to occur from businesses that operate in the above
two divisions.

3. The proposed acquisition

MS2M develops compliance software for the financial services industry. The
company employs nine people and is based in York. It has a number of products,
the most notable of which is its "Virtual Compliance Officer", which assists
companies to comply with the Financial Services Authority's ("FSA") regulatory
requirements in a number of areas including, Retail Mediation Annual Reporting
and Senior Management Arrangements, Systems and Controls.

MS2M charges a licence fee and recurring support revenues on a per seat basis.
Typically new contracts are three years in length and renewable thereafter. The
company has approximately 20,000 seats being used by organisations such as the
Royal Bank of Scotland Group, the National Australia Banking Group and other
financial institutions. The directors believe that the increasing compliance
requirements both in the UK and the European Union will continue to fuel
growth.

The Acquisition will further strengthen the management team and it fits well
with the Company's strategy of building recurring revenues in business critical
services. MS2M generated operating profits of £104,000 on a turnover of £
607,000 in the year ended 31 May 2004 and profits of £299,000 on a turnover of
£893,000 in the year ended 31 May 2005. The company now has recurring revenues
of approximately £300,000 per annum.

4. Reasons for the placing and use of proceeds

The Directors intend to utilise the net proceeds of the Placing, being
approximately £1.32 million, as follows:

 a. £1 million to satisfy in part the initial cash consideration for the
    proposed acquisition of Management Services 2000 Ltd, which is not backed
    by cash balances within MS2M in excess of its current requirements; and
   
 b. £320,000 for working capital purposes and provision for an element of
    deferred consideration.
   
5. terms of the acquisition

Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreements, the Company has conditionally
agreed to acquire the entire issued share capital of MS2M for an initial
consideration of £1.95 million, being £1.5 million plus an amount equal to the
cash balance of MS2M in excess of £300,000, which is estimated to be £450,000.
The consideration will be satisfied as to £1.45 million in cash and as to the
balance by the issue of the equivalent of £500,000 in new Ordinary Shares. It
is a term of the Acquisition Agreements that MS2M will have net assets of not
less than £200,000 on completion and cash balances of not less than £300,000 on
completion.

Deferred consideration will be paid on the basis of five times the average
operating profit for the two years ending 31 May 2007 and 31 May 2008 less the
amount of the initial consideration, subject to the total amount of deferred
consideration not exceeding £2.5 million. The deferred consideration will be
satisfied by the issue of new Ordinary Shares at the average Closing Price of
the Ordinary Shares for the 7 business days prior to the determination of
MS2M's profits for the relevant period subject to an agreed minimum price of
2.65 pence. The vendors may give notice to the Company to take up to 50% of any
payment due under the deferred consideration in loan notes.

Both the initial consideration shares and the deferred consideration shares
allotted pursuant to the Acquisition will be subject to restrictions on their
disposal. Neither the initial consideration shares nor the deferred
consideration shares may be disposed of by the vendors (other than in strictly
controlled circumstances) for a period of one year after their respective
allotments with any disposal in the following 12 month period required to be
effected through the Company's broker.

The Acquisition is conditional, inter alia, on the passing of the Resolutions
by the Shareholders and Admission.

6. Strategy

The Group's strategy is to establish a portfolio of companies which provide
business critical services on a recurring revenue basis to SMEs, corporate
entities and governmental organisations focussed on legislation, compliance,
business risk and data recovery. The Directors believe that this model provides
high levels of repeat business, and thus high quality revenues, together with
cross selling opportunities within the Group.

The Group's existing businesses are performing well, and the Directors believe
that they have exciting growth prospects. In addition, the Directors intend to
expand the business by seeking further acquisitions so as to build a group with
critical mass and strong cashflows.

7. The Placing

The Company is proposing to raise £1.5 million, before expenses, through a
placing arranged by Corporate Synergy of 25,000,000 new Ordinary Shares at 6
pence per Ordinary Share. Corporate Synergy has conditionally agreed, as agent
for the Company, to use its reasonable endeavours to procure subscribers for
the Placing Shares.

The obligations of Corporate Synergy under the Placing Agreement, and therefore
the Placing, are conditional upon inter alia, passing of the Resolutions and
Admission taking place by 8 am on Tuesday 17th October 2006 (or such later
date, being not later than 8 a.m. on Tuesday 31st October 2006 as the Company
and Corporate Synergy shall agree). The Placing Agreement contains provisions
entitling Corporate Synergy to terminate the Placing Agreement at any time
prior to Admission in certain limited circumstances.

The Placing Shares will represent approximately 22.8 per cent. of the Enlarged
Share Capital at Admission. On Admission the Company will have a market
capitalisation of approximately £6.59 million at the Placing Price.

As part of the Placing directors and employees have subscribed, in aggregate,
for 518,333 Ordinary Shares.

8. Admission to aim

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for all the Placing
Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. Conditional upon the passing of the
Resolutions, Admission is expected to become effective and trading in the
Placing Shares to commence on 17 October 2006.

There will be an extraordinary general meeting of the Company to be held at
