PHOENIX, Arizona (October 10, 2006) –

iLinc Communications, Inc. (AMEX:ILC), developers of Web conferencing software and audio conferencing solutions announced today that White Hat Management made its fifth purchase of iLinc virtual classroom software, known as LearnLinc. White Hat Management is a long time customer that made its first purchase in September of 2003, with each purchase exceeding $50,000. They use LearnLinc, part of the iLinc Web conferencing suite, to teach students as young as kindergarten age in concert with White Hat Management’s Distance and Electronic Learning Academy (DELA). The program helps more than 4,000 students throughout Ohio, Pennsylvania and Colorado achieve academic success in the comfort and safety of their own homes.

“iLinc continues to provide improvements to their software that we find valuable and our students find easy to use,” noted Jody Anderson, Chief Information Officer of White Hat Management. “We appreciate the return on investment that is provided by iLinc’s software purchase license program, which is why we keep coming back for more,” added Mr. Anderson.

“While we enjoy liberating customers from our competitors, we place great value on repeat purchases by existing customers. We remain one of the only enterprise-class providers that offers the software purchase license model to our customers,” commented James M. Powers, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of iLinc. “We find that our software purchase model provides an unmatched return on investment, in comparison to the more expensive annual rental model. In addition to a great ROI, the software purchase model provides a deeper level of customer retention, proven by White Hat and many others” continued Dr. Powers. “More and more of our purchase model customers are taking advantage of our hosting program. By purchasing software but then letting iLinc host it, our customers reap the benefits of both the ownership model and the so called software-as-a-service (SAAS) model. Just like with the SAAS model, iLinc’s customers are operational in minutes, do not purchase hardware, do not worry about bandwidth and do not consume their IT department’s resources, simply the best of both worlds in our view,” concluded Dr. Powers.
