MYOB-Branded Version of NetSuite Provides On-Demand Application Suite to Growing Companies in Australia and New Zealand

SAN MATEO, Calif.,—June 24, 2005—NetSuite, the leader in on-demand business management software, today announced a partnership to distribute NetSuite to medium-sized businesses in Australia and New Zealand with MYOB (ASX: MYO), a developer of small-medium business management software. NetSuite will be co-branded as MYOB NetSuite and will be sold to end-user companies via MYOB's extensive distribution network.

The selection of NetSuite as MYOB's mid-range solution represents a strategic move by MYOB in the mid-market with an on-demand service. The offering will be delivered in partnership with Net Return (see accompanying release "MYOB Strengthens Mid-market Position in Partnership with Net Return"), NetSuite's distributor in Australia and New Zealand.

MYOB is the leading supplier of business management solutions to small-medium businesses in Australia and New Zealand. In Australia, MYOB accounts for 67 percent of the back-office software market according to the GfKGroup.

Having established its market leadership in the on-demand business software category, NetSuite has thousands of customers globally, and the company's products have won numerou industry accolades including No. 12 in the Inc.Magazine 500 (NetSuite was ranked Silicon Valley's fastest growing on-demand software company); PC Magazine's Technical Excellence Award, and the Codie Award for "Best Software Service" by SIIA (Software & Information Industry Association).

"We are making a big commitment to serving medium-size businesses with an on-demand service," said Craig Winkler, CEO of MYOB. "By partnering with NetSuite, we have the best on-demand application suite to offer to our new and existing customers."
