Acquisition of Engineering Procurement Company

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 29, 2008 FastFunds Financial Corporation (OTCBB: FFFC) announced today that it has executed a new non-binding letter of intent to acquire Industrial Systems, Inc. ("ISI"). ISI, formed in 1991 and based in Delta, Colorado, provides engineering procurement and construction services to the mining, energy and natural resources industries throughout the United States. The letter of intent calls for FastFunds to acquire 100% of the outstanding securities of ISI in an all stock tax-free transaction. Prior to the closing of the transaction, FFFC is required to have no liabilities on its balance sheet, unless mutually agreed upon. Completion of the transaction, which is planned to close by April 30, 2008, is also subject to further due diligence by each party, negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement, and other customary pre-closing conditions.

We believe we have reached the next step in our growth and we are looking forward to concluding this transaction and becoming a public company," commented Bob Isom, ISI's President and CEO.
