(NASDAQ: NTWK, www.netsol-intl.com) today announced that votes are still being counted in connection with its June 19, 2001 shareholder meeting and the related consent solicitation. "We are confident that a majority of NetSol's shareholders will believe in our ability to run the Company, and will vote with us," stated Najeeb Ghauri, Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

Irfan Mustafa, the Company's chairman of the board of directors, went on to say "At this time I would like to re-assure all of our loyal shareholders, customers and employees worldwide that we intend to conduct business as usual at Netsol International and all of its subsidiaries." In conclusion, Ghauri stated, "We are looking forward to the June 19th special meeting where we intend to demonstrate that we enjoy support from a majority of our shareholders."
