Laurentian Bank chooses Emergis' electronic solution for completing mortgage transactions

Montréal, June 12, 2007 - Emergis Inc. (TSX: EME) today announced the signing of a letter of intent with Laurentian Bank (TSX: LB), whereby the bank will use Emergis' Assyst Real Estate electronic solution for completing residential mortgage transactions with real estate notaries in Quebec. Laurentian Bank, an important player in the Quebec residential mortgage market, is in line to become the fourth financial institution in the province to adopt Assyst Real Estate.

"This agreement with Laurentian Bank advances our position as the leader in electronic mortgage processing in Quebec, where our solution has been a great success since it was launched," said François Côté, President and Chief Executive Officer of Emergis. "It also points to the interest that Assyst Real Estate is generating among the major Canadian banks, as we launch the solution nationally."

Upon signature of a final five-year agreement, the solution would be offered progressively to Laurentian Bank branches beginning in November 2007, allowing bank employees to send mortgage instructions to notaries electronically. As well, when the agreement comes into effect, Emergis expects to be processing up to 75% of residential mortgage mandates in Quebec.

"We want to capitalize on the leadership, reliability and extensive reach of the Emergis solution as we prepare to automate our mortgage processing activities," said Luc Bernard, Executive Vice-President, Retail Financial Services and SME of Laurentian Bank. "Assyst Real Estate will help make our processes more efficient and enable us to enhance the quality of service we offer to our customers."

Emergis' bilingual Assyst Real Estate mortgage solution is designed to facilitate instructing, funding and reporting of mortgage loans for lenders and the legal community. With it, lenders can send mortgage instructions electronically to notaries, lawyers and their staff in real time. In turn, these professionals can complete mortgage transactions from end to end online, in a more secure and confidential manner. Assyst Real Estate speeds up the processing of transactions, reduces paperwork, cuts back on costs and reduces the risk of clerical error.

Emergis manages the enrolment of notaries and lawyers on the mortgage platform and collects fees based on their usage of the solution to complete residential mortgage transactions. Since Emergis launched its mortgage solution, more than 80% of real estate notaries in Quebec have adopted the solution.

As part of the national launch of Assyst Real Estate in partnership with a major Canadian bank, Emergis will deploy its solution in British Columbia and Ontario over the summer, in the Western provinces before the end of 2007 and in the Atlantic provinces during 2008. These deployments will be supported by an adoption program designed to increase the number of notaries and lawyers who use the solution in each region. As part of this program, Emergis has signed agreements with software suppliers to the legal community, such as RemoteLaw – now OneMove Technologies - and Pro Suite in British Columbia, as well as Do Process Software in Ontario.

Certain information in this news release, in various filings with Canadian regulators, in reports to shareholders and in other communications, is forward-looking within the meaning of certain securi¬ties laws, and is subject to important risks, uncertainties and assumptions. This forward-looking information includes, among others, information with respect to the Company's objectives and the strategies to achieve those objectives, as well as information with respect to the Company's beliefs, plans, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions. The words "may", "could", "should", "would", "suspect", "outlook", "believe", "anticipate", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "plan", "target" and similar words and expressions are used to identify forward-looking information. The forward-looking information in this news release describes the Company's expectations as of June 12, 2007.

The results or events predicted in such forward-looking information may differ materially from actual results or events. Material factors which could cause actual results or events to differ materially from a conclusion, forecast or projection in such forward-looking information include, among others: general economic factors, adverse industry events, the adoption rate of the Company's solutions by customers and by related electronic trading communities, its ability to deliver development and implementation projects in a timely manner, the non-renewal of major contracts which expire in the near term, complexities and timing of signing large customer contracts, customers developing internally the capability to perform the services which the Company performs on their behalf, its response to its industry's rapid pace of change, the limited time to capitalize on market opportunities, competition, pricing pressures, fluctuations in its operating results, its ability to make and integrate acquisitions, failures or material changes in its strategic relationships, exposure under contract indemnities, defects in software or failures in the processing of transactions, security and privacy breaches, its ability to attract and retain key personnel, its ability to protect its intellectual property, intellectual property infringement claims, and industry and government regulation.

When relying on the Company's forward-looking information to make decisions, investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events. In making the forward-looking information contained in this news release, the Company does not assume any significant acquisitions, dispositions or one-time items. It does assume, however, the renewal of certain customer contracts. Every year, Emergis has major customer contracts that it needs to renew. One of these represents slightly more than 10% of its annual revenue. In addition, the Company also assumes the signature of contracts in new markets in the public health sector. In this regard, Emergis is pursuing large opportunities that present a very long and complex sales cycle, which substantially affect the Company's forecasting abilities. The Company has made certain assumptions regarding the timing of the realization of these opportunities which it thinks is reasonable but which may not be achieved. Furthermore, the pursuit of these larger opportunities does not ensure a linear progression of the Company's revenue and earnings, since they may involve significant up-front fees followed by reduced ongoing payments. The Company has assumed a certain progression, which may not be realized. It has also assumed that the material factors referred to in the previous paragraph will not result in such forward-looking information to differ materially from actual results or events. However, the list of these factors is not exhaustive and is subject to change and there can be no assurance that such assumptions will reflect the actual outcome of such items or factors. For additional information with respect to certain of these and other factors, refer to the risks and uncertainties section of the Company's 2006 MD&A and to its 2006 Annual Information Form (risks and uncertainties) filed with Canadian regulators.

THE FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS NEWS RELEASE REPRESENTS THE EXPECTATIONS OF EMERGIS AS OF JUNE 12, 2007 AND, ACCORDINGLY, IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE AFTER SUCH DATE. HOWEVER, EMERGIS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY INTENTION OR OBLIGATION TO UPDATE OR REVISE ANY FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION, WHETHER AS A RESULT OF NEW INFORMATION, FUTURE EVENTS OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
