FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Nordex Introduces Philips Licensed Manufacturing of CD and DVD Media
Licensing ensures quality products and keeps a level playing field for a fair price

Camarillo, California (USA)

, February 1, 2008-Nordex Advanced Technology, Inc., a leading provider of CD/DVD media manufacturing, is now licensed by Philips.

Philips asks on their website "Does your company import or buy-in CD, DVD, or other optical media products from a third-party manufacturer? If so, we strongly advise you to check that your supplier sells licensed products. If you receive unlicensed products you could be liable for patent infringement."

To reduce the risk of liability for infringement that may result from using unlicensed products, Philips strongly recommends you take all necessary precautions to ensure your products are licensed. Philips places great value in protecting its innovations through intellectual property rights (IPRs). Nordex will follow through with the necessary diligence to enforce these IPRs on behalf of Philips, our licensor.

Philips provides two tools that allow you to check whether your disc media products are licensed:
1. You can visit: www.ip.philips.com/licensing/check_your_supplier/buyerpage.html and check the database for their listing. Nordex is listed in the Philips database for both CDs and DVDs. So you can rest assured that all disc media supplied to you is licensed.

2. For being extra vigilant in IPR matters, you can request a free Licensed Status Confirmation Document (LSCD) from Philips to verify that your disc media order is fully licensed.
