                NIC Wins Arizona Web Portal Management Contract

     PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 30, 2007--The state of Arizona recently
finalized a three-year agreement with eGovernment firm NIC (Nasdaq: EGOV) to
operate the state's official Web site, Arizona @ Your Service (http://az.gov).
The contract runs through 2010 with renewal options that extend through June
2013. Arizona issued its competitive bid in February 2007 and chose NIC from a
competitive field.

     "The state of Arizona is excited to build upon our strong tradition of
online service delivery and government efficiency through the new Web portal
contract," said Chris Cummiskey, the state of Arizona's chief information
officer and director of the Government Information Technology Agency. "NIC has a
proven track record in eGovernment and we are looking forward to our new
partnership."

     The contract includes recurring fixed monthly fees for baseline services
and project-based pricing for variable services. The value of the initial
three-year contract for core baseline services is $5.7 million and the state may
choose additional baseline service levels that could add $3 million to $9
million to the contract's overall value. NIC also can earn additional revenues
through deployment of variable services.

     "We are thrilled to be Arizona's new partner," said Jeff Fraser, NIC's
chief executive officer. "The state is progressive in its use of technology for
citizen services. Since NIC is the only company that specializes solely in
eGovernment services, it's a great match of partners. NIC has spent 15 years
focusing exclusively on managing portals for 19 states, and we are eager to
apply our proven advantages in reliability, speed and innovation to benefit the
state of Arizona's eGovernment initiative."

     Once operation of Arizona @ Your Service transitions to NIC in October, the
company will operate 20 portals serving more than 67 million residents.

     Baseline services include overall support and hosting of the existing
infrastructure, support and maintenance of the re-engineered services available
today on the state's Web portal, as well as overall operational management,
customer support, reporting and portal security. Baseline services also include
smaller-scale new projects, such as application and Web site development.
Variable services will include all larger-scale new eGovernment projects and
enhancements, new hardware and software purchases, backup and recovery services
and marketing and promotion.

     NIC will provide additional context and answer investor questions about
market dynamics and financial performance when it reports second-quarter
financial performance on August 1.
