Fifty-Plus.Net International Inc. Resumes Trading on the TSX:V

TORONTO, ONTARIO (TSX VENTURE: FPN) are pleased to announce that the common shares of the company resumed trading today on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") under the symbol "FPN".

The common shares were halted as part of a Reverse Takeover ("RTO") transaction that closed on December 28, 2007 (Press Release December 31, 2007). Under the transaction, Olympus Management Limited ("OML") acquired control of FPN through a Reverse Take-Over by providing cash and vending in certain assets. OML is a private Ontario corporation, owned and operated by noted media entrepreneur Moses Znaimer.

Znaimer's interest in FPN is part of his quest to redefine the meaning of "aging" by revisiting the image and highlighting the needs of a growing, vibrant and affluent generation commonly known as Boomers, now re-coined by Znaimer as ZOOMERs (Boomers with Zip!).

Mr. Znaimer is currently Chairman/Executive Producer of Classical 96.3 FM and 101.3 FM radio, Toronto, and President/Executive Producer of MZTV, a boutique television production and distribution company in Toronto. He was co-founder, President and Executive Producer of Citytv, MuchMusic, Bravo!, Space and Canadian Learning Television, as well as many other local stations and national specialty TV channels in Canada and around the world.

The effect of the transaction is the consolidation under FPN of both the online and offline media currently associated with CARP and published on behalf of CARP, including CARP Magazine, www.CARP.ca and www.NoMoreWaiting.info. These will be complemented by FPN's other online publishing assets, including www.50plus.com and five electronic newsletters, each with 120,000 opt-in subscribers. In all, FPN's portfolio of web sites and electronic newsletters delivers over 2 million pages views per month.

As a result of the Reverse Take-Over, the current issued and outstanding share capital of FPN is 170,538,803 common shares on a non-diluted basis and 216,634,820 common shares on a fully diluted basis.

Fifty-Plus.Net International Inc. also announced the grant, pursuant to its Stock Option Plan, of 13,766,018 incentive stock options effective January 25, 2008. The options vest over three years with an exercise price ranging between $0.10 and $0.15 per share and expire in five years. Incentive stock options were granted to employees, directors, officers and consultants.
