Clarity wins Crown Theatres contract to install new .NET Ticketing solution

Clarity Commerce Solutions plc ('Clarity'), a leading supplier of software
management solutions for the entertainment, ticketing, hospitality and leisure
sectors, has won a contract with Crown Theatres, based in Norwalk, Connecticut,
USA, for the installation of Clarity's new Microsoft .NET-based cinema
management software across Crown's eighteen sites.  Installations will commence
in the autumn, with the largest cinemas scheduled for conversion to the new
software system prior to the busy Christmas holiday period.  This endorses
Clarity's continued investment in the .Net ticketing platform.

The software and services will be based on Clarity's flagship product, Clarity
Central, an 'ERP' system for multi-site leisure groups. Central, allied with
Clarity's cinema management software modules, will help Crown Theatres to
improve operational efficiency, profitability, control and security, with
detailed reporting and analysis tools available at its corporate headquarters.

This endorses Clarity's continued investment in the .Net ticketing platform.

Hal Cleveland, President and Chief Operating Officer of Crown said:

'The contract with Clarity provides Crown Theatres with the best solution to
create greater operational efficiencies and improve our management of
information.  This IT system will be key to the future success and growth of our
business.'

Graham York, Chief Executive of Clarity Commerce Solutions said:

'Clarity's contract to supply Crown Theatres represents a definitive endorsement
of the new .NET based product from a major US cinema operator.  I am delighted
that Clarity is engaging with Crown Theatres, and look forward to a successful
and profitable partnership.  This contract is indicative of the building sales
momentum for our .NET product.'
