BELLEVUE, Wash. - Onyx® Software Corporation (NASDAQ: ONXS) has strengthened its sales leadership with the appointment of Brad McCoy as vice president of financial services. Joining him as Onyx's new director of health care sales is industry veteran Dave Self. Together, the two bring years of experience and proven expertise to their respective fields, enabling Onyx to broaden its penetration of the financial services and health care industries.

McCoy, who possesses more than 10 years of experience in banking and financial services, was most recently the co-founder and managing director of RevenueLab, the sales and marketing strategy firm acquired by Onyx in January 2001. Leveraging his revenue acceleration and go-to-market sales strategies, McCoy will look to maximize Onyx's key partnerships with Microsoft and others to jointly deliver customer relationship management (CRM) solutions to a greater number of financial services customers.

"With more than 80 customers operating in the financial services industry, Onyx has already illustrated its leadership in this vertical market," said McCoy. "The company's strict focus on truly understanding key segments within the financial services industry to deliver long-term business value proved to me how serious Onyx is about succeeding in this competitive market. I look forward to further extending this value by driving the go-to-market strategies that have brought tremendous success to my clients' initiatives."

Prior to co-founding RevenueLab, McCoy led a division of Wells Fargo. In 1997, at the age of 29, he was promoted to senior vice president of Wells Fargo. Most recently, McCoy served as Southern California division manager of Wells Fargo's Premier Business Banking Group, where he was responsible for the company's largest and most diverse small business market.

As director of health care sales at Onyx, Self is responsible for developing and executing sales strategies to further increase Onyx's penetration of the broad health care market. He comes to Onyx from The Regence Group, an affiliation of Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield companies in the Northwest and Intermountain states. He held a variety of high-level sales positions with the Blues over a period of 11 years.

"As a member of the Onyx team, I look to instill the same type of value for our customers operating in the health care market that Blue Cross and Blue Shield companies do throughout the country," Self said.

Most recently, Self held the position of vice president of sales and marketing for Regence BlueShield of Idaho and Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Utah, where combined revenues for the year 2000 exceeded $1 billion. The two companies are part of The Regence Group, which also includes Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Oregon and Regence BlueShield (in Washington). He played a lead role in driving e-business initiatives within The Regence Group.

"Onyx remains dedicated to providing the financial services and health care industries with enduring business value," said Marianna Suciu, vice president of sales, Americas, for Onyx. "The appointments of Brad and Dave are further evidence of that commitment, as well as a sign of our ability to deliver superior strategy and execution to our customers. We look forward to supplementing our customer projects with their proven expertise."
