VANCOUVER, BC -- (Marketwire) -- 12/03/08 -- ActionView International, Inc. (OTCBB: AVWI)today announced that it will not move forward with its planned acquisitiontransaction with Stanza Systems, Ltd., a wireless management services andtechnologies company. ActionView International will instead focus itsattention on pursuing remedies for its position as a significant creditorin the Chapter 11 bankruptcy case of Jim Palmer Trucking, Inc.

ActionView International provided a loan to Jim Palmer Trucking, Inc. inthe amount of $250,000 on May 5, 2008. Several weeks later, Jim PalmerTrucking and two related equipment companies filed for Chapter 11bankruptcy protection. ActionView International management expressedseveral issues of concern related to the bankruptcy filing, including itsclose proximity in time to Jim Palmer Trucking's acceptance of the loanfrom ActionView International. In August 2008, ActionView was appointedchairman of the unsecured creditors committee due to its position as asignificant creditor in the bankruptcy case.

Stanza Systems, Ltd. and ActionView International subsequently entered intoa letter of intent that outlined the companies' mutual interest in atransaction under which ActionView International would have acquired all ofthe issued and outstanding shares of Stanza Systems, Ltd. in exchange for amajority percentage of ActionView International.

"The initial agreement with Stanza Systems did not progress to a definitiveagreement, and we have decided to focus our immediate attention on apositive outcome in the Jim Palmer Trucking bankruptcy case," statedActionView International CEO Steven R. Peacock. "From information that thecompany has made publicly available it appears that Jim Palmer Trucking isoperating at full capacity with substantially lower fuel costs today.Based on the facts of the case, we believe that getting our loan back andpossibly more is a very real possibility. We will continue to monitor thebankruptcy closely as chairman of the unsecured creditors committee.

"In addition to the Jim Palmer case, we will continue to evaluate possibleacquisition transactions for ActionView International. Given the conditionof the U.S. capital markets in general and the uncertainty in theinvestment banking sector specifically, we will pursue potentialtransactions cautiously and only move forward if an acquisition can becompleted successfully," Mr. Peacock added.
