INVENDA CORPORATION ANNOUNCES VOLUNTARY DEREGISTRATION WITH SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AND VOLUNTARY DELISTING ON THE SIX SWISS EXCHANGE

BETHESDA, MD, January 9, 2009 – Invenda Corporation announced that today its application for voluntary delisting from the SIX Swiss Exchange has been approved and that it has filed a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to voluntarily terminate the Company’s common stock registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Company’s Board of Directors believes that delisting and deregistering the Company’s common stock is in the long-term best interests of its shareholders. After careful consideration, the Board of Directors has concluded that the benefits of remaining a public reporting company are outweighed by the costs and administrative burdens of being a public reporting company. “We are taking this action in order to relieve the Company from the burden and expense of maintaining its public company status,” said Kamran Amjadi, Chairman & CEO of Invenda Corporation. Additionally, Mr. Amjadi continued, “We spent approximately $500,000 and $300,000 in 2007 and 2008 respectively in accounting, legal and insurance related costs directly related to being a public reporting company. Our average trading volume over the past 12 months was approximately 1,900 shares. For Invenda’s size and the thinly-traded nature of its stock, the Board believes the financial and operational burdens of being a public reporting company are disproportionate to the benefits of maintaining its registered status. We do not believe that deregistering and delisting will have any impact on our overall business strategy, which continues to be to focus on growing our business, developing new products and controlling costs.”

The delisting date from the SIX Swiss Exchange is on Thursday, April 9, 2009 and the last day of trading on the SIX Swiss Exchange will be Wednesday, April 8, 2009. The Company will provide a secondary market of trading of its shares through the Helvetica platform of Bondpartners, Lausanne, as required by the SIX Swiss Exchange for 180 days. The obligations of the Company to file periodic reports with the SEC, including reports on Form 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, as well as proxy statements, are suspended upon filing of the Form 15.

Kamran Amjadi, Invenda’s CEO will be available via a conference call on January 9, 2009 at 11:30 a.m. U.S. EST. Callers may participate in the conference call by dialing (877) 311-9977 (U.S. participants) or +1.706.643.3836 (International participants).
