Release Date: 6/19/2009

MEMBERS TO HAVE EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO CBA-ONLY BENEFITS PACKAGE

Sacramento & Sunnyvale, Calif. — June 18, 2009 — California Bankers Association, one of the largest state banking trade associations, and HEIT, an IT services provider, announced today a new strategic endorsement partnership that will provide CBA members access to HEIT’s exclusive PCS-4 Platform for financial institutions.

HEIT’s PCS-4 Platform provides banks with proven and affordable solutions for IT performance, compliance, and security. All services are co-managed and supported by H.I.V.E., HEIT’s 24x7x365 integrated and validated environment staffed with certified knowledge experts that help banks extend uptime, increase compliance readiness, and mitigate cyber risk.

CBA’s Strategic Partners program recognizes the vendor with the highest quality products and services in a service category. To earn the endorsement, companies must meet stringent quality standards, fulfill industry needs, and satisfy certain other key criteria, such as the ability to meet the long term needs of financial institutions, customer service, financial soundness, and management strength.

”IT security and compliance are critical needs in the banking industry. The fact that CBA recognizes this and sought a partner who can deliver proven solutions for this need speaks volumes about their commitment to association members,” said Dan Holt, CEO of HEIT. “We’re honored to be that partner and look forward to helping member banks effectively manage their IT and operational risk.”

Under the agreement, CBA members will have access to many value-added features, including the innovative HEIT Rewards Program that allows participating banks to earn dividends that can be exchanged for cash when used for CBA events or education. The Rewards Program is complemented by several other cost-saving benefits designed exclusively for CBA member banks.

“Technology plays a vital role in bank operations and a trusted provider can ensure that your bank runs smoothly while mitigating risk and maintaining compliance,” said Rodney Brown, president and CEO of the CBA. “CBA is pleased to endorse HEIT and offer these top-level services to our members.”
