Henderson, NV. -- (PR Newswire) - December 13, 2001 -- Nutek Inc. (OTCBB:NUTK) announces Datascension Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, has been awarded $3,000,000 Federal contract.

Mr. Conradie, CEO of Nutek, stated, “Datascension has received a $3 million Federal contract for the survey to track the fishing effort of recreational saltwater anglers throughout the country for the National Marine Fisheries Service of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The successful negotiation of this Federal contract brings the commitments for Datascension to $7 million during the last 60 days.”

Our goals however, are to eclipse these contracts in 2002 with commitments for our revolutionary Tekplate product which we successfully launched over the Thanksgiving period in several DeNault’s TrueValue stores in Southern California.
