Mobixell Extends its Third Party Licensing Portfolio to Include Wireless Patents of Openwave

Clears the US-Based IPR Dispute Between Openwave Systems and 724 Solutions

SAN JOSE, California, October 18, 2010/PRNewswire/ --     Mobixell Networks, a leading provider of rich-media mobile data
solutions, announced today it has extended its third party licensing
portfolio to include wireless patents from Openwave Systems. The licensing
agreement enables Mobixell to clear the US-based Intellectual Property Rights
(IPR) dispute between Openwave Systems and 724 Solutions - a company acquired
by Mobixell earlier this year. The details of the agreement between the
parties remain confidential.

    Mobixell indicated this licensing agreement is standard business practice
for the company to ensure its products are fully licensed to use third party
technologies, as it has continuously done in the past with technologies such
as MPEG LA, On2 VP6, Via Licensing and others. Mobixell's software for
adaptation and optimisation of rich media has also been offered
pre-integrated with some of Openwave's solutions.

    "We are pleased to have settled the dispute between Openwave Systems and
724 Solutions, and have reached a licensing agreement," said Tamar Ben
Porath, EVP of Corporate Development at Mobixell Networks. "Disregarding the
merits of a specific case, patent litigation in the United States is an
extremely expensive process. Settling a dispute is at Mobixell's best
interests and will enable us to assign our resources to productive directions
while enhancing our offering to our customers."

    Mobixell's solutions intelligently manage the surging mobile Internet and
video traffic enabling mobile operators to achieve their 'least cost,
smartest pipe' strategy, while giving subscribers exceptional user
experience.
