Telelogic Focuses the Product Portfolio MALMÖ, Sweden, June 7, 2001 - Telelogic (Stockholm Stock Exchange:TLOG), a world-leading provider of solutions for advanced software and systems development, today announced an agreement with the software company DSCE. Under this agreement, DSCE acquires KnowledgeSynergy including all product rights and customer installations. DSCE also takes over sales and marketing of the product. KnowledgeSynergy is a project collaboration tool that Telelogic obtained through the acquisition of Continuus Software in December 2000. "This is part of the process to sharpen our R&D focus. KnowledgeSynergy is a web based product in an early development stage, which would require major investments before we could expect any significant revenue out of it. DSCE, under contract to Continuus, was responsible for the majority of critical development and maintenance of KnowledgeSynergy for over a year and today's agreement is a natural extension of that earlier relationship. We are convinced that a partner like DSCE can better take advantage of KnowledgeSynergy's potential," says Anders Lidbeck, President and CEO of Telelogic. "We are delighted to reach agreement with Telelogic AB on the ownership of this technology. The KnowledgeSynergy application has substantial potential in DCSE's target markets," said Ali Diba, President and CEO of DCSE. "We also look forward to maintaining an OEM relationship with Telelogic on an ongoing basis for components of the technology. This is a win/win for Telelogic AB, DCSE and the joint customers we share." Under the terms of the sale Telelogic will realize revenues from future royalties. The sale of KnowledgeSynergy will not impact Telelogic's full year forecast.
