marchFIRST Forms Alliance With Wholetree.com.

Companies to Help Clients Conduct Business Internationally

In Native Language, Currency

CHICAGO, June 21 /PRNewswire/ --

marchFIRST, Inc. (Nasdaq: MRCH), the new global Internet professional services company created by the merger of Whittman-Hart and USWeb/CKS, today announced that it has formed an alliance with Wholetree.com Inc., a subsidiary of LanguageWare.net Ltd. (OTC Bulletin Board: LWNTF and LWNUF), to help companies conduct business worldwide in their native language and currency.

Under the alliance, marchFIRST will help its clients implement Wholetree.com's technology, which is designed to support multilingual Web sites that are configured to conduct transactions in multiple currencies. Wholetree.com's solutions will enable marchFIRST clients to efficiently convert currency and translate multilingual correspondence as well as allow their customers to retrieve, display, edit and print information from Web sites and databases in multiple languages.

In turn, Wholetree.com will refer its clients that want to develop innovative business strategies, distinctive brands and world-class technology solutions to marchFIRST.

"Our unrivaled global scale makes marchFIRST the provider of choice for large, multinational corporations and fast-growing companies that want to reach customers in international markets," said Robert Wise, marchFIRST Chief Technology Officer. "Clearly there are unique challenges related to international e-business. This alliance with Wholetree.com provides marchFIRST with another robust tool that we can leverage to help our clients worldwide overcome these challenges, enhance relationships with international customers and open doors to new foreign markets -- all at Internet speed."

"Displaying foreign language characters on a computer screen is simple, but transacting global e-business is a much more complex, complicated process because it requires inputting and manipulating text before characters can be converted to a single format," said Todd Oseth, President and Chief Executive Officer of Wholetree.com. "Managing multiple systems to support different languages is not cost-effective. With Wholetree.com's technologies, companies can manage a transaction-oriented site from one location and serve customers no matter where they live. Similarly, marchFIRST can serve companies wherever they do business. With its commanding global reach and deep expertise, marchFIRST is an ideal alliance partner for us."
