Halo Debt Solutions, Inc. Approved for ISO 9001:2008 Certification

ALLEN, TX--(Marketwire - February 9, 2010) - Halo Debt Solutions, Inc., a nationwide debt settlement company and a subsidiary of Halo Companies, Inc. (OTCBB: GPAX), announces today that the company has been granted ISO 9001:2008 certification. Halo began the application process six months ago in accordance with their initiative to continue to set the highest standards in the industry and serve more consumers. In order to obtain certification, Halo spent six months designing and implementing a quality management system to regulate all operations of the company, culminating with extensive process and procedure audits on-site by BSI Group, a provider of independent third-party certifications of management systems.

Several key states have adopted strong debt settlement laws with increased consumer protections, such as the Uniform Debt Management Services Act (UDMSA). The tough statutory compliance and accreditation requirements exclude the majority of settlement companies from operating in those states. The ISO 9001:2008 certification, however, meets the accreditation requirements of the UDMSA. By obtaining the ISO certification, Halo Debt Solutions, Inc. will be able to operate in more states, increasing the number of consumers eligible for Halo's debt settlement program. "Halo has always been an advocate for regulation in the industry and obtaining this type of certification shows our commitment to regulatory compliance. Furthermore, the ISO certification positions Halo to help more consumers, which is the central tenant of our company's mission statement," states Jeffrey Rasco, vice president of government relations and compliance for Halo.
