VANCOUVER, BC, June 21,

("TUT" or "the Company"), a Vancouver-based Canadian manufacturer of
high-performance and affordable fitness products, is pleased to
announce that its common shares are now trading on the OTCQB

("DTC") that its common shares are now eligible for
electronic clearing and settlement through DTC in the United States. The Company will continue

The OTCQB Venture Market
The OTCQB Venture Market is the premier marketplace for
entrepreneurial and development stage US and international
companies committed to providing a high-quality trading and
information experience for their US investors. To be eligible,
companies must be current in their financial reporting, pass a
minimum bid price test, and undergo an annual company verification
and management certification process. The OTCQB quality standards
provide a strong baseline of transparency, as well as the
technology and regulation to improve the information and trading
experience for investors.
Trading on this US marketplace provides TUT's current and future
US-based investors greater access to data, home country disclosure,
ease of trading, and transparency.
"We are pleased to announce that we have met all requirements
and have been accepted by OTC Markets to up-list from the Pink
Sheet to the OTCQB tier for trading," said TUT CEO Rob Smith. "Listing on the OTCQB is another
important milestone for the Company and we are confident the
uplisting will bring added value to our shareholders."
DTC Eligibility
The Depository Trust Company manages the electronic clearing and
settlement of publicly traded companies. Securities that are
eligible to be electronically cleared and settled through DTC are
considered DTC eligible. This electronic method of clearing
securities speeds up the receipt of stock and cash, and thus
accelerates the settlement process for investors and brokers,
enabling the stock to be traded over a much wider selection of
brokerage firms.
Obtaining DTC eligibility represents the Company's commitment to
increasing visibility and accessibility for all its shareholders in
the United States. It enables TUT
to expand its reach to a larger portion of the global investment
community while providing a more efficient and seamless trading
process.
