Route1 Receives a Purchase Order for an Additional 2,000 MobiKEY Users

A Second Component of the United States Department of Defense to Increase its User Count to 4,000


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 20, 2012) - Route1 Inc. (TSX VENTURE:ROI) ("Route1" or the "Company"), a security and identity management company, today announced that it has received a second purchase order from a component of the United States Department of Defense that the Company first referenced in a press release dated November 13, 2012 (the "Client").

This purchase order is for an additional 2,000 MobiKEY Fusion devices and 4,000 MobiKEY subscriptions covering the service period April 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014. The Company expects to ship the additional 2,000 MobiKEY Fusion devices during the fourth quarter of 2012.

This award follows on the November 13, 2012 announced purchase order covering the service period December 1, 2012 to March 31, 2013. The gross value of today's announced purchase order is approximately US $2 million.

As of April 1, 2013, the Client's users will be provisioned on their own identity and access management platform, a DEFIMNET. The DEFIMNET will be hosted at a secure Client hosting facility.

"Today's announcement is encouraging for many reasons. Not only do we have a highly respected military organization using our technology because of its strong data security architecture but the decision is also being driven by the real cost savings the Client will benefit from as many of the user's turn in their enterprise issued laptop. Users will now only need to use their CAC card, MobiKEY Fusion device and any internet connected personal or other computer to have a secure, remote access session," said Brian Brunetti, President, Route1 Inc. "The Client expects to realize annual cost savings in the order of magnitude of twice the annual cost of using the MobiKEY technology."

European Government Client Update

Route1 expects that due to budget cutbacks, its European Government client will be reducing the number of employees and contractors that will use the MobiKEY technology effective January 1, 2013. Route1 expects the annual gross revenue impact will be approximately CAD $460,000.
