Feb 19, 2009 -- Airspan Networks Inc. (NASDAQ: AIRN), a leading
provider of broadband wireless access networks, publicized today the
availability of the industry's most complete FCC and Rural Utilities
Service (RUS) certified lineup of fixed and mobile WiMAX Base Stations
and Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) for the U.S. rural market. This
announcement follows the just-signed American Recovery and Reinvestment
Act that has placed significant emphasis on rural broadband. RUS
approval is obtained from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, affirming
Rural Development acceptance and "Buy American" status of equipment.
Airspan is among a select few WiMAX equipment manufacturers with this
coveted "Buy America" status.
"Airspan has been recognized by leading WiMAX industry analysts as the
market leader in rural America," said Declan Byrne, Airspan's Chief
Marketing Officer. "Following the recent legislation, many of our
existing customers are positioning our WiMAX equipment to the grant and
loan-making authorities of the Departments of Commerce and Agriculture.
In addition, we are working to bring together an industry-leading
consortium of operators, systems integrators and grant-writing and
loan-application partners to assist rural operators in attaining funds
from the stimulus legislation, and to deploy broadband networks in a
targeted and timely manner."
Airspan has been serving rural America for several years already, with
broadband wireless equipment deployed in 43 states. Airspan is
currently providing equipment to the largest 3.65 GHz rural network in
the country being deployed by FairPoint Communications in New England.
Airspan has RUS approved and FCC certified products ready to deploy to
help rural residents and businesses get connected. Supporting
bandwidth-intensive services such as high-speed Internet access,
Internet telephony (VoIP) and video streaming, Airspan's WiMAX
solutions allow for an easy, quick and affordable deployment of a
broadband network.
"Wireless broadband is an ideal technology for rural America,"
commented Declan Byrne. "Whereas other technologies such as cable and
DSL require digging trenches and laying down cables to reach these
remote areas, which can be very costly and time consuming, WiMAX base
stations can be easily set up to service a rural and dispersed
subscriber base with immediate connectivity. We are aligned with the
stimulus bill's broadband intentions of reaching rural and underserved
Americans quickly with quality connectivity."
"Broadband for the rural market will be a key focus in the next 12-18
months, and WiMAX in 3.65 GHz will be a leading technology choice due
to the recent deregulation of the frequency and the economic
characteristics of WiMAX," said Emmy Johnson, Founder & Principal
Analyst of Sky Light Research. "Equipment vendors that have
successfully demonstrated their ability to provide a strong wireless
product offering will benefit the most. Sky Light's quarterly market
share research, in conjunction with Synergy Research Group, shows that
the 3.65 GHz WiMAX market demonstrated triple digit growth in the first
nine months of 2008, with Airspan leading the market at more than 30
percent share."
Earlier this week 650 mainly rural television broadcasters decided to
move ahead with the transition from analog signals to digital signals
despite a government approved delay. "We are encouraged by this
decision, made by approximately one third of the total 700 MHz
broadcasters, which will allow our current customers who hold this
valuable spectrum to quickly deploy our WiMAX equipment in this band,"
continued Declan Byrne.
J.J. Stutler, CEO of Stutler Technologies, a Kansas-based wireless
integrator, added, "Airspan has been a valuable partner for Stutler in
the last few years and we have made great progress in reaching rural
America. The stimulus package reserves $7.2 Billion for rural
broadband, all of which must be allocated by September 2010. We believe
WiMAX is one of the only technologies that can reasonably and
cost-effectively reach the dispersed and low-density population areas
targeted by this bill. We are looking forward to assisting current and
future customers with this growth."
Airspan joined the Organization for the Promotion and Advancement of
Small Telecommunications Companies (OPASTCO) recently. OPASTCO is a
group of hundreds of independent carriers providing voice and data
services in rural areas that are often expensive to serve due to
difficult terrain and low population density. These innovative service
providers use a variety of technologies, including WiMAX, to extend
broadband to customers in hard to reach communities.
Airspan successfully passed FCC compliance tests for its 1.4 GHz
solution earlier this week. "This continues to underscore Airspan's
unique and complete offering of WiMAX solutions. Airspan now has
solutions for 700 MHz, 1.4-1.5, 3.65, 4.9, 5.4, and 5.8 GHz frequency
bands, and is the only WiMAX vendor covering all of these bands," added
Byrne. "We have welcomed the tremendous customer response for our
solutions and urge interested local exchange carriers to contact us via
our North American sales offices. The legislation's intent to rapidly
distribute broadband assistance is evident and Airspan is ideally
positioned to bring operators the necessary spectrum, certified
equipment, deployment partners and grant-writing expertise in a timely
and successful manner."
Operators seeking to deploy wireless broadband in rural United States
should contact Airspan at 561.893.8687 or email sales@airspan.com. For

Feb 19, 2009 -- Novell, Inc. (NASDAQ: NOVL) announces it acquired the
technology assets of Fortefi Ltd., a provider of compliance and
privileged user management solutions. Novell also acquired a perpetual
source code license to ActivIdentity's industry-leading single sign-on
solution, SecureLogin, which had been previously available to customers
through an OEM agreement as Novell(R) SecureLogin. The two deals cement
Novell's leadership position in bringing together identity, access and
security management technologies to help customers reduce cost,
complexity and risk while proving compliance with industry regulations.
"We're excited about adding Fortefi's privileged user management
solutions to our portfolio and bringing SecureLogin technology,
development and support in-house," said Jim Ebzery, senior vice
president and general manager of Identity and Security at Novell. "With
these two moves, we continue our evolution to become the
'category-killer' for identity and security management. Customers can
come to Novell as a one-stop-shop for all of their identity and
security needs - whether they are seeking a point solution or a
complete platform. Our best-of-breed approach is both modular and
integrated, to let customers address their specific problems with the
flexibility to expand to the rest of their enterprise."
License Agreement Overview - ActivIdentity Corporation
Novell SecureLogin is the industry's leading solution for enterprise
single sign-on. Since 2001, Novell has delivered Novell SecureLogin via
an OEM agreement with ActivIdentity. Novell acquired a perpetual source
code license to the ActivIdentity code and can fully manage the future
development and road map for Novell SecureLogin. This will allow for
better integration of SecureLogin into Novell's portfolio of identity
management solutions and faster additions of Novell customer
requirements into future generations of the product.
Novell is positioned in the leaders quadrant of Gartner, Inc.'s, "Magic
Quadrant for Enterprise Single Sign-On" by Gregg Kreizman, Sept. 18,
2008. According to Gartner, "Enterprises continue to make tactical
investments in ESSO to resolve the problem of users having too many
passwords, with no relief in sight for the next two to three years."
Enterprise Single Sign-on (ESSO) enables a user to access all permitted
computers and systems without the need to enter multiple passwords.
ESSO reduces human error and helpdesk requests but is difficult to
implement because most applications and systems support different
password mechanisms.
Novell SecureLogin is part of Novell Identity and Access Management
solutions, the industry's leading solutions to automate business
processes, mitigate security risks and lay the foundation for complying
with internal security mandates and government regulations.
Novell licensed the SecureLogin source code for an undisclosed sum
using current cash. SecureLogin will be fully integrated into Novell's
identity and security business unit.
Technology Acquisition Overview - Fortefi Ltd.
Using the technology acquired from Fortefi, Novell plans to introduce
Novell Privileged User Manager in the second quarter of 2009. Novell
Privileged User Manager is built on two Fortefi products, Command
Control and Compliance Auditor, and provides granular access control
and auditing of "super" or "root" users across multiple systems. Novell
Privileged User Manager limits exposure to unauthorized activity and
information access by helping customers rapidly enable or disable
administrator-level users across both UNIX* and Linux*. This
acquisition also expands Novell's focus on UNIX to Linux migration by
offering customers a single tool for managing superuser access while
they migrate to SUSE(R) Linux Enterprise.
Industry regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, PCI DSS, HIPAA and others
call for better control of user access to sensitive information.
Despite these requirements, many organizations share superuser, or root
account credentials among multiple users, increasing the likelihood of
a security breach from inside the organization. Privileged user
management mitigates these types of potential security risks by
governing privileged users' access and passwords to an organization's
information and systems.
"Poorly managed superuser privileges leave enterprises exposed to
security breaches and regulatory rebuke, which may result in business
losses and financial penalties," notes Gartner, Inc. in Best Practices
for Managing Superuser Privileges, Ant Allan, et. al., November 2008.
"Smart enterprises will oblige system administrators to use SUPM tools,
rather than being permanently assigned superuser privileges."
Novell Privileged User Manager will become part of Novell Compliance
Management solutions, the industry's leading solutions to automatically
enforce security and access-related policies, making it easy to prove
compliance and ensure trusted access.
Novell acquired the technology assets from Fortefi Corporation for an
undisclosed sum using current cash. These technologies will be fully
integrated into the Novell identity and security business unit.
About Novell
Novell, Inc. delivers the best engineered, most interoperable Linux
platform and a portfolio of integrated IT management software that
helps customers around the world reduce cost, complexity and risk. With
our infrastructure software and ecosystem of partnerships, Novell
harmoniously integrates mixed IT environments, allowing people and
technology to work as one.
Feb 19, 2009 -- Onstream Media Corporation (NASDAQ: ONSM), a leading
online service provider of live and on-demand digital media
communications and applications, today provided a recap of the
Company's conference call held on February 18, 2009. Fiscal year 2009
first quarter financial results and recent financial and business
developments, including the launch of Streaming Publisher, as well as
the outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year and the proposed
Narrowstep acquisition, were discussed on the conference call.
Business and product development highlights of the management-led
presentation included the following:
-- Onstream introduced and launched Streaming Publisher, its latest
upgrade to the DMSP platform, during February. Streaming Publisher is
designed to provide enhanced capabilities for advanced users such as
publishers, media companies and other content developers. The new
Streaming Publisher upgrade to the DMSP directly addresses the
developing online video advertising market and includes features such
as automated transcoding (the ability to convert media files into
multiple file formats), player gallery (the ability to create various
video players), as well as advanced permissioning, detailed usage
reports, security and syndication features. Users of the basic Store
and Stream version of the DMSP may easily upgrade to the Streaming
Publisher version for a higher monthly fee.
-- Onstream is currently negotiating the merger agreement with
Narrowstep and once this is complete, the Company will file the revised
documents with the SEC. Management anticipates a Narrowstep closing in
the second or early third quarter of fiscal 2009 and the Company will
issue a press release once this is complete, describing the revised
terms and conditions and providing an update on the assets being
acquired.
-- For the first six weeks of the second quarter average revenue per
day for the Company's Infinite Conferencing division is exceeding
$32,800 and if that trend continues, based on a 61 business day
quarter, total revenue from Infinite should exceed $2 million, an
approximately $250,000 increase over results for the first fiscal
quarter.
Randy Selman, Onstream's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Positive
cash flow should be attainable in the current or next fiscal quarter.
For the year, we expect sales and gross margin, in terms of dollars, to
be higher for this year as a whole compared to fiscal 2008. We expect
SG&A costs to increase for fiscal 2009 versus 2008 but at a lesser
percentage rate than sales and margins for the year as a whole,
excluding the impact of goodwill impairment."
A rebroadcast of the conference call, to be archived for one year, can

Feb 19, 2009 -- Universal Detection Technology (OTCBB: UNDT), a
developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people
from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of
counter-terrorism consulting and training services, issued an analysis
of the funds allocated to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as
part of President Obama's $787 Billion Stimulus Plan. The DHS is set to
receive a $2.8 billion budget boost as part of the plan.
The largest single item is $1 billion for the Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) for technologies and tasks, including checked
baggage explosive detection systems. These are generally systems that
use X-rays and digital three-dimensional scanning. The U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) also will receive $420 million to help pay for
construction and renovation of land border ports of entry. Many of
those border entry and exit points are being expanded and reconfigured
in part to make room for sophisticated scanners and identification
checking equipment.
The bill also directs $300 million into state and local grant programs
for port security, rail security, and mass transit security. A large
chunk of that grant money is likely to pay for IT-related systems, such
as access control, camera monitoring, perimeter alarm systems,
underwater surveillance and tunnel surveillance systems.
"We have been closely monitoring President Obama's Stimulus plan and we
are prepared to take advantage of the opportunities it offers for
companies in the Homeland Security sector," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi,
UNDT's Chief Executive Officer.
About Universal Detection Technology
Universal Detection Technology is a developer of monitoring
technologies, including bioterrorism detection devices. The Company on
its own and with development partners is positioned to capitalize on
opportunities related to Homeland Security. For example, the Company,
in cooperation with NASA, has developed a bacterial spore detector that
detects certain biohazard substances. The Company is also a reseller of
handheld assays used for detection of five bioterrorism agents,
radiation detection systems, and antimicrobial products.
Feb 19, 2009 -- Vital Products, Inc. (OTCBB: VTLP), a multichannel
innovator in the industrial packaging sector, announced today that it
has signed an agreement to market a paper packaging system.
Vital Products Chief Executive Officer, Michael Levine remarked, "Paper
packaging has been a staple in the industrial packaging market for many
years. Machines today produce different profiles of scrunched or
crumpled paper, but in the end they all perform a similar function."
Mr. Levine further commented, "This new agreement gives us access to a
new green technology that stands alone in the market. Quite frankly
there is nothing available, or in fact similar to the product that we
will be marketing. The system produces a superior kraft paper product
that simulates a moldable nest, yet remains price competitive with
other paper products, giving us the advantage of performance and range
of use."
About Vital Products, Inc.
Vital Products, Inc. is a distributor of industrial packaging products.
The company plans to identify and invest in emerging market segments in
the industrial packaging sector as well as research and develop
products it can patent and license in the environmentally sustainable
packaging markets.
