Baar, Switzerland — March 3, 2008 — Swiss OPENLiMiT Holding AG, a leading
provider of IT-security, document and archiving technologies in conjunction
with electronic signatures, achieved the best net turnover from deliveries
and services and profit results in the company’s history in 2007. On the
basis of the preliminary results, OPENLiMiT increased net turnover from
deliveries and services last year by 307% from CHF 1.19m in 2006 to      
CHF 4.85m. This development shows us clearly that the market for the
OPENLiMiT products for legally-binding electronic processes is developing
positively and gaining momentum.

The operating revenues increased by 151% to CHF 6.57m (prior year: CHF
2.62m), due to the increase in net turnover from deliveries and services
and the activation of own capital contributions. Earnings before interest,
tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) reached CHF 1'849'054 (prior
year: CHF -240'623). OPENLiMiT improved earnings before interest and tax
(EBIT) from CHF -419'138 in 2006 to CHF 841'026 and thus achieved a
positive EBIT for the first time. The annual result for 2007 changed from a
loss in 2006 of CHF -987'369 to a gain of CHF 978'502.

OPENLiMiT looks forward with confidence to the new year. Based on current
product developments, OPENLiMiT expects to release a signature middleware
product in 2008, as well as a specialized solution for long-term archiving
systems and solutions for select partner technologies. The positive market
development, increased demand and new technologies form a good foundation
for increased revenues in 2008.

The final results for the year ended 2007, as well as additional
information pertaining to the development of the business, will be
published in the annual report 2007 scheduled for release on April 4, 2008.
