announces  today the company has completed the  acquisition of Aduddell  Roofing
and Sheet Metal, Inc.  (www.aduddell.com),  a recognized  national leader in the
roofing industry. The completion of this acquisition  significantly  strengthens

Aduddell  Roofing is a national leader in the commercial and industrial  roofing

Penney,  Marriott,  Wyndham Hotels and Tishman Speyer.  Aduddell Roofing focuses
primarily on  re-roofing  projects  where it can more easily  control  costs and
thereby  derive higher  profits.  Aduddell  Roofing has  historically  performed
complex  work  required to be completed  within a short time frame,  such as for
buildings that have suffered severe hurricane damage.

Ron Carte,  CEO of Zenex  stated:  "The  completion  of this  acquisition  is an
important  milestone  in the  history  of  our  company.  This  is  part  of our
continuous  effort  to  establish   shareholder   confidence  in  us  and  build

shareholders.   Our  other  initiatives   include  aggressive  debt  reductions,
improving operating efficiency and focusing on profitability."
