CITY COUNCIL MEMBER FORREST WILLIAMS JOIN IN RIBBON-CUTTING CEREMONY
13 June 2001 - LynuxWorks

LynuxWorks, Inc., a premier provider of open source and true real-time embedded solutions for the post-PC era, held a ribbon-cutting ceremony today to officially mark the opening of its new headquarters in the Edenvale Technology Park in South San José.

"This building is a testament to the efforts of everyone at LynuxWorks, not only here in San José, but at our facilities in Dallas and Denver, and around the world in India, Russia and France," said Inder Singh, chairman and CEO of LynuxWorks, Inc. "From simple beginnings in 1988 with less than ten people, we are now more than 250 strong.

"Our growth this year has been exceptionally strong. We have achieved record revenues for the year as well as the most recent quarter," continued Singh. "In these challenging economic times this is an outstanding story of success and growth."

The new 70,000 square foot headquarters consolidates three local facilities and gives LynuxWorks room for continued expansion. LynuxWorks' operating systems are at the heart of many intelligent devices, from cell phone switches and mission-critical airplane navigation systems to laser printers and smart consumer products like Linux-based MP3 car stereos that will enable people to take their MP3 music library on the road. The fast-growing embedded Linux market will provide LynuxWorks opportunities to offer its embedded solutions in numerous other end markets.

"The city of San José is proud to have LynuxWorks locate its corporate headquarters in the Edenvale Technology Park," said San José Mayor Ron Gonzales. "This office park is a prime example of the public and private sectors coming together to find solutions that benefit not only the Edenvale area, but the entire Silicon Valley economy as well."

"LynuxWorks' corporate relocation marks another significant milestone in the evolution of the Edenvale Technology Park," noted San José City Council member Forrest Williams. "With the help of the San José Redevelopment Agency, the city of San José is making smart investments in our area, investments that will help Edenvale evolve into the high-tech hub of South San José."

Susan Shick, executive director of the San José Redevelopment Agency, also warmly welcomed LynuxWorks to Edenvale and wished the company continued success.
