PRESS RELEASE

Nexxlink Acquires Additional Assets From CGI

• These assets operate under the corporate name Meta-4 Technical Support Services and generate revenues of $15 M annually

•  CGI to increase its interest in Nexxlink’s capital stock

Montreal, March 22, 2004 – Nexxlink Technologies Inc. (TSX: NTI), a leading Canadian provider of integrated information technology solutions, and CGI Group Inc. (TSX: GIB.A; NYSE: GIB) announce the signature of an irrevocable memorandum of understanding for the acquisition by Nexxlink of assets of Meta-4 Technical Support Services (“Meta-4”). This company offers Canada-wide installation, maintenance and technical services for a broad range of electronic equipment such as computer systems, automatic teller machines (ATMs) and video lottery terminals.

Founded in 1981, Meta-4 employs about 170 people and generates revenues of over $15 million annually. From its offices in Montreal, Quebec City, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver, Meta-4 serves hundreds of organizations of all sizes, including Mouvement Desjardins, Jean Coutu Group, National Bank of Canada and Loto-Québec. Notably, Meta-4 maintains 4,200 ATMs and 4,300 video lottery terminals.

“This acquisition fits well with our growth strategy,” stated Karol Brassard, Executive Chairman of the Board of Nexxlink. “It strengthens our technical team considerably, while enabling us to provide our clients with enhanced service and to better meet the technical requirements of our partner CGI’s clients. Given the convergence of technologies toward IT, Nexxlink will be able to support various peripherals and thereby offer more complete and integrated solutions.”

Serge Godin, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at CGI, said: “We are pleased to complete this second transaction with Nexxlink. The sale of Meta-4, which is a better fit with Nexxlink’s mission, will reinforce the business alliance with our partner.”

“It is with great pleasure that we welcome Meta-4‘s employees into the Nexxlink team. Their integration broadens our field of expertise and gives the Company critical mass in the technical services area. We now have more than 200 experienced technicians, enabling us to undertake larger-scale installation and technical support mandates,” added Robert Courteau, Nexxlink’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Thanks to this capacity and our state-of-the-art technical helpdesk, companies can more than ever rely on Nexxlink for efficient 24/7 technical support.”

On the closing of this transaction scheduled for April 2004, Nexxlink will pay $9.0 million to CGI as follows: $1.5 million cash on the signing; $1.5 million as a balance of sale; $3.0 million through the issue of an interest-bearing note repayable in 24 months; and $3.0 million through the issue of 441,000 shares of Nexxlink at a price of $6.80 per share, raising CGI’s interest in the Company’s capital stock from 32% to 35%.

“This transaction is just as advantageous financially as it is strategically. First, it will increase our recurring revenues as Meta-4 benefits from contracts with an average term of about three years and an order backlog of over $25 million. And secondly, it will boost Nexxlink’s adjusted earnings per share,” concluded Mr. Brassard. “Following this acquisition, the Company will have close to 900 employees and generate sales of some $125 million annually.”

Nexxlink intends to make offers of employment to all staff associated with the technical support services branch of the business, based on the same global conditions as those in place prior to the conclusion of the final agreement, including preservation of seniority. This transaction is subject to certain conditions, including the conclusion of a final agreement governing asset purchases that will contain the usual representations and warranties associated with this type of transaction and the approvals of the applicable regulatory authorities. The final and conclusive memorandum of understanding has been approved by all of Nexxlink’s directors, except for the two individuals who represent CGI at the board of Nexxlink and who abstained from voting in light of their relationship with CGI. Pursuant to Policy Statement Q-27 (“Q-27”) adopted by the Autorité des marchés financiers and Rule 61-501 (“61-501”) adopted by the Ontario Securities Commission, this transaction qualifies as a related party transaction. Although the transaction qualifies as such, it is exempted from the valuation requirement with respect to the purchased assets and from the minority approval by the shareholders of Nexxlink as a result of the fair market value of the transaction not exceeding 25% of the market capitalization of Nexxlink, calculated as per Q-27 and 61-501.
