TORONTO, Canada, August 2, 2007 – Diversinet Corp.

In May 2007 Diversinet entered into a three year license and value added reseller (VAR) agreement to provide its MobiSecure Wallet and Vault mobile secure access solution to Intersections Inc.

Revenues generated from this agreement contributed significantly to second quarter results. Cash used in operations for the quarter was $653,000 compared to $726,000 used in Q2 2006 and $920,000 used in Q1 2007. All dollar amounts are in U.S. dollars.

Company, customer, and product solution highlights include:
- In May 2007 Diversinet entered into a three year license and VAR agreement to provide its MobiSecure Wallet and Vault mobile secure access solution to Intersections, a leading provider of identity theft protection and credit management solutions for consumers. With over 5 million customers, this relationship will allow Intersections to offer users secure and immediate access to a host of personal, financial, and insurance identity information, as well as other critical, privileged data. Diversinet’s MobiSecure Wallet and Vault will provide Intersections with a mobile and desktop security platform it can use to extend its core offering to broad user base.
- In April 2007 Chairman Albert Wahbe was named the new CEO of Diversinet. Mr. Wahbe brings seasoned leadership to Diversinet after a distinguished career as a senior executive at both Scotiabank and IBM. His primary objective is to turn the company from a product development organization into a sales and marketing driven company. Additionally, the Board appointed Greg Milavsky, a seasoned investment banker and private equity executive, to the board completing a full makeover of the board that began when Mr. Wahbe became Chairman and Diversinet’s largest shareholder approximately a year ago.
- Diversinet introduced its Provisioning Server for RSA SecurID®, a fast, easy and secure way for enterprises to deploy cost-effective RSA SecurID software authenticators. RSA, the Security Division of EMC, is teaming with Diversinet to deliver the provisioning server to its enterprise customers worldwide, expanding the strategic partnership between the two companies.
CEO and Chairman of Diversinet Albert Wahbe stated “We are pleased with the progress we are making in our ongoing transition from a product development company to a sales and marketing enterprise. My first priority was to build a dynamic global sales organization to showcase the technology leadership we have developed in the wireless application/security space. I believe with the hiring of an additional eight experienced sales professionals, a new partnership with IBM and existing relationships with vertical players like SanDisk, RSA and Blue Cross of Northeastern Pennsylvania, we now have the team in place to aggressively showcase our products in the marketplace. We continue to build out our product offering and distribution network to deliver valuable customer applications in the marketplace.”
