-- New Contracts Contributing to Cash Flow in Current Quarter --

LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Beacon Enterprise Solutions Group, Inc. (OTCBB: BEAC) (www.askbeacon.com), an emerging global leader in the design, implementation and management of high performance Information Transport Systems (“ITS”) infrastructure solutions, today announced that the Company has filed a Form 8-K with the SEC regarding the termination of its pending private placement.

“Our high profile engagements and consistent growth are meaningful achievements for a company in our stage of development and we look forward to sharing additional news of our progress as we continue to execute our plan to rapidly expand our domestic and global operations.”

Beacon has recently announced a series of new contracts and engagements that are contributing significantly to the Company’s revenue and cash flow in the current quarter. As a result, the Company no longer anticipates a need to raise additional equity capital in the short term and will terminate its current private placement no later than December 15, 2009.

“We have been experiencing sequential quarterly revenue growth and, with the addition of recently announced ITS infrastructure projects, expect to achieve sustainable profitability in FY 2010,” said Bruce Widener, CEO of Beacon Enterprise Solutions. “As a result of these fundamental developments, management is confident that we will not require additional rounds of equity capital in the near future and that cash flow from operations will aid our continued growth.

“Over the last two years we have worked diligently to transform Beacon into a global leader in ITS infrastructure solutions and today have over 120 employees supporting customers in over 20 countries around the world,” continued Mr. Widener. “Our high profile engagements and consistent growth are meaningful achievements for a company in our stage of development and we look forward to sharing additional news of our progress as we continue to execute our plan to rapidly expand our domestic and global operations.”

Beacon Enterprise Solutions’ recently announced engagements include a three year ITS infrastructure management agreement with a Fortune 100 pharmaceutical company valued at approximately $27 million, the design and construction of a data center in Zurich valued at over $24 million and an engagement to provide outsourced IT management solutions to Hitachi Cable Indiana.
