C-Chip Technologies (North America) announces  Technology License Agreement with
iMetrik Solutions.

MONTREAL,  CANADA - (December 28 2006) - C-Chip Technologies  Corporation (North
America),  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of  Manaris  Corporation  (OTCBB:  MANS)
(FRANKFURT WKN:  A0F5LD),  today announced that it has entered into a technology
license agreement with its technology partner iMetrik Solutions Inc.

Last spring, C-Chip, in partnership with iMetrik, launched the Credit-Chip 200G,
a GSM-based product developed by iMetrik,  with a complete web-based "locate and
disable" platform, for the North American used car market. The relationship with
iMetrik has been a key factor in the development of the Credit-Chip  product and
has allowed C-Chip to provide its customers with a reliable  solution.  To date,
C-Chip has shipped in excess of 10,000 units of the Credit-Chip 200G.

Building  upon the  relationship,  C-Chip has  entered  into an  agreement  with
iMetrik  whereby  iMetrik will have the exclusive  right to manufacture and sell
products based on the GSM-based "locate and disable" technology platform for the
"Buy Here Pay Here" (BHPH) market  worldwide.  In exchange,  C-Chip will receive
royalties for each product sold by iMetrik.

"We are very  excited  with our new  arrangement  with  iMetrik.  The purpose of
consolidating our efforts via a unified sales channel is to develop economies of
scale as well as a more focused sales strategy," said John Fraser, President and
CEO of Manaris  Corporation.  "We  strongly  believe that this will benefit both
companies."
