QCS.net Corporation Announces Name Change to SourcingLink.net, Inc.
Reflects Company's Growing Business-to-Business Internet Activity
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 20 /PRNewswire/ -- QCS.net Corporation (OTC
Bulletin Board: QCSC - news), announced today that it has received stockholder
approval to change the name of the Company from QCS.net corporation to
SourcingLink.net, Inc.
According to Sean Maloy, SourcingLink.net President and CEO, the new
name was chosen to more accurately reflect the Company's business activity,
which uses Internet-based solutions and services. "We believe that the Company
today is the industry leader in e-Commerce solutions for automating pre-order
merchandise sourcing activities and linking major retailers with their suppliers
for exchange of sourcing information. We expect our new name to provide
meaningful recognition for our success to date with both retailers and
suppliers, and to help us clearly differentiate SourcingLink.net in the
marketplace."
Added Maloy: "The name change will in no way affect the validity or
transferability of currently outstanding stock certificates, nor will the
Company's stockholders be required to surrender or exchange any stock
certificates that they currently hold. In conjunction with our name change, we
will also be changing the Company's stock symbol from 'QCSC' to a new symbol
that will be consistent with our new name."
SourcingLink.net (www.SourcingLink.net) has developed and is supplying
to customers an Internet-based turnkey solution for business-to-business
e-Commerce that enables retailers to organize, automate and significantly reduce

process of linking with their suppliers through the SourcingLink solution
include PETsMART, Promodes, and Carrefour. All customer, help desk, and training
services are available through regional Solution Centers based in Cincinnati,
Brussels, and Hong Kong.
Any statements in this announcement about future results are
preliminary and based on partial information and assumptions, and actual results
may differ. Except for historical information presented, the matters discussed
in this announcement contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties, including the development and growth of markets targeted by
SourcingLink.net, the acceptance of Electronic Collaborative Solutions by

detailed from time to time in the Company's public disclosure filings with the
