ELIBRIUM, INC. SHIPS 2001 EMPLOYEE TAX FORM PREPARATION AND FILING SOFTWARE FOR SMALL BUSINESSES

MyBusinessW2 & 1099Tax Filer for Tax Season 2001 is the
Only Retail Software Solution of its Kind for Small Businesses

SAN MATEO, Calif. (Nov. 27, 2001)-Elibrium, Inc., a leading provider of productivity software and services, announced today the release of MyBusinessW2 & 1099 Tax Filer for tax season 2001. The product gives small businesses a powerful, yet low cost way to prepare employee W-2 and 1099 forms, and file them with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). MyBusinessW2 & 1099 Tax Filer is the only retail software product to support all W-2 and 1099 tax forms, and is available at major computer and office supply retailers through January 31, 2002, with an estimated retail price of $29.95.

"Most small businesses spend much of their time each year, November through January, completing mandatory tax forms," said Anne Norland, senior vice president of Elbrium, Inc. "With MyBusinessW2 & 1099 Tax Filer, Elibrium transforms this traditionally time consuming, manual task into a time and cost efficient one - reducing their accounting costs by up to 60 percent - and allowing them to focus on their core business."

MyBusinessW2 & 1099 Tax Filer provides an easy-to-use menu-driven format that allows small business accounting managers to enter all company and employee information as it automatically calculates Social Security, Medicare, wage and withholding monies. In addition, the software lets tax preparers quickly print tax forms for multiple employees and companies, with 12 1099-MISC forms and envelopes included in the package, and offers them peace of mind with automatic file backup.

As an added bonus, MyBusinessW2 & 1099 Tax Filer users can file W-2 and 1099 forms online with the IRS through a partnership with MyFileTaxes.com, a service provided by Greatland, a company with more than 40 years of experience in delivering government-approved tax forms to accountants and businesses. MyBusinessW2 & 1099 Tax Filer software product offers small businesses private and secure transactions, employing a secure socket layer with data encryption. MyFileTaxes.com automatically files a company's forms with the government, sends paper copies to employees and sends an email confirmation to the business. Companies can file documents 24 hours a day, seven days a week, using government approved forms, at a nominal price of $3.49 per filing. Past year's filings are easily accessible, too.
