Glenbriar and Platinum Enter VoIP Marketing Agreement

CALGARY, AB, February 3, 2006 — Glenbriar Technologies Inc. (CNQ: GBRT) and Platinum Communications Corp. (TSX-V: PCS) today announced that they have entered into a joint venture marketing agreement to deliver Glenbriar’s business IP telephony solutions to Platinum’s growing base of fixed and wireless broadband customers located in small and rural communities throughout southern Alberta.

Under the agreement, Glenbriar and Platinum will work jointly to deliver best-of-breed VoIP solutions to businesses and public authorities served by Platinum through its network, which extends the reach of the Alberta Supernet. The deployment allows businesses to optimize VoIP solutions within their organizations, while adding the ability to use either traditional PSTN and T1 lines for outside trunks, or to add Internet-based SIP and VoIP trunks through another of Platinum’s partners, the ZGroup North America. This agreement does not affect Platinum’s residential VoIP subscriber base.

“Deploying a quality VoIP solution is much more complicated for commercial organizations than for residential customers,” notes Robert Matheson, President of Glenbriar. “The ability to include an IP call centre, treat multiple sites as a single cohesive system, extend full functionality to mobile and teleworkers, integrate with corporate applications and networks, large-scale conferencing, save on local trunk and long distance charges, and Web-based management are but a few of the additional productivity enhancements available to an enterprise from a properly designed business VoIP platform. We look forward to working with Platinum to deliver these solutions to their commercial client base.”

“We have worked closely with Glenbriar over the years, and are very pleased to be able to offer their business VoIP solutions to our growing base of industrial, commercial, and municipal subscribers,” notes Al Stretton, Platinum’s Chief Operating Officer. “Glenbriar’s solutions are first rate, proven, costeffective and rapidly deployable. They are a great enhancement for our business customers and provide a strong incentive to sign up for Platinum’s broadband offerings.”
