Redline provides default status report

TORONTO, April 1 /CNW/ - As previously announced on March 15, 2010, Redline Communications Group Inc. (the "Company") did not file, by the deadline of March 31, 2010, its audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, related management's discussion and analysis, annual information form and CEO and CFO certificates.

The Special Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, with the assistance of Grant Thornton, has been conducting a review into the Company's revenue recognition practices. As a result of the work completed to date, the Company now believes that its revenue and cost of sales for some of the periods since it has been a public company has been overstated and/or allocated to incorrect periods, and that as a result investors are cautioned that they should not be relying on the Company's historical financial statements. The Special Committee has developed a work plan pursuant to which Grant Thornton will work with the Company's management and external auditors in order to seek to quantify the impact of any revenue recognition issues. It is expected that Grant Thornton will report back to the Special Committee as quickly as possible so that the Company can finalize its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009. As part of this process, it is expected that the Company's financial statements for some prior years will also be restated.

The Company has applied to the Ontario Securities Commission (the "OSC") and Autorite des marches financiers (the "AMF") for a temporary management cease trade order (a "MCTO") under National Policy 12-203 which, if granted, will prohibit trading in securities of the Company by certain insiders of the Company. An MCTO would not generally affect the ability of persons who have not been directors, officers or insiders of the Company to trade securities of the Company. The granting of a MCTO is at the discretion of the OSC and the AMF and there is no assurance that such an order will granted.

If the OSC and the AMF decide not to grant a MCTO, the Canadian Securities Administrators may decide to grant a general cease trade order which would prohibit any person from trading in securities of the Company in Canada.

If the MCTO is granted, the Company intends to satisfy the provisions of the Alternate Information Guidelines as set out in the National Policy 12-203 for as long as the Company remains in default, including the issuance of bi-weekly default status reports, each of which will be issued in the form of a press release.
