OCE Open EC Technologies

Open EC Technologies, Inc. ("Open EC" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:OCE) is
pleased to announce its subsidiary SoftCare Electronic Commerce (U.S.A) Inc. has
executed a definitive supplier agreement with Londale Enterprise Worldwide, LLC,
("Londale") in Coral Springs, Florida to supply their Medical Supply Product
line to the SoftCare Group Purchasing Organization ("GPO") Members. 


SoftCare will receive a 3% recurring revenue administrative fee generated from
sales of Londale Medical Supplies to members of the SoftCare GPO. The SoftCare
GPO Members will receive preferred pricing and rebates on products ordered
through the SoftCare e-Business GPO Buying System. 


The SoftCare GPO members include NetCare Administrators (Oct 28, 2010 News
Release) a Preferred Provider Organization projecting up to 6,000 Chiropractors
over the next 18 months and i-Plexus Solutions (Oct 13, 2010 News Release) a
Physician Claims Processing company with over 5,400 Physician customers. These
SoftCare GPO members will have the direct benefit of the group buying contract
with Londale, for preferred pricing, discounts and rebates on their Medical
Practice Supplies purchases. 


Martyn Armstrong, CEO of Open EC, states: "We are pleased to launch the SoftCare
GPO business unit to offer our customers the administration of Group Buying
contracts such as with Londale. With increasing costs for medical practices, our
members will see benefits of procurement cost saving in our GPO. Our business
plan is to aggressively develop our network to access Group Purchasing
Organizations, Hospitals and Independent HealthCare Provider Organisations
(IPAs) to step up our revenue, presence and market share in the growing US
HealthCare Supply Chain sector."


Londale is a Minority owned Healthcare Products Manufacturer supplying over 700
consumable medical supplies products to Hospitals and Healthcare Provider
Practices throughout the United States. With a specific focus on supplying
Hospital Group Purchasing Organizations with high quality value priced Medical
Practice Consumable Products, Londale is one of the few Minority owned
manufacturers to service this market segment. The Londale business strategy is
to take advantage of its Minority business status to gain preferred access to
the Healthcare "supplies" market to help government funded Healthcare
Organizations and Group Purchasing Organizations meet their obligations for
Minority owned business purchasing contracts."


Derek Davis, CEO of Londale Enterprise, states: "We already rely on the SoftCare
Solutions group to design and implement our internal supply chain e-Business
solutions and this new Vendor contract to supply the SoftCare GPO Members is a
natural fit for both organisations. Our agreement with the SoftCare GPO provides
their members with the lowest cost, highest quality products to best manage the
care and treatment of their patients."


The US HealthCare Industry spends over $60 Billion on institutional medical
supplies, where SoftCare EC Solutions (Open EC's e-Business Software operating
subsidiary) provides group purchasing solutions for a recurring administrative
fee based on a percentage of the total value of the supplier's sales orders. Our
advanced Web e-Commerce and Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) technology
streamlines the procurement process, reduces costs and errors for all sizes of
