NEC NOW SHIPPING NEW INSTALLATION PROJECTOR LINE

Powerful NEC NP1000 and NP2000 Digital Installation Projectors Feature Flexibility,

Integrated Networking and Durability

Chicago, April 17, 2006 – NEC Solutions (America), Inc. (NEC), an industry leader in projectors and
plasma displays, is now shipping the new line of digital installation projectors, the NEC NP1000 and
NP2000. This new line of projectors takes the best features from the award-winning NEC MT series and
improves it by adding integrated networking, built in RJ45, five optional bayonet lenses and lamp saver
technologies.

“The NP projectors are equipped to take on the most demanding integration projects,” said Keith Yanke,
senior manager of product marketing, Visual Systems Division, NEC Solutions America. “The NP’s provide
a suite of networking technologies and asset management features making them perfect for any installation
environment.”

Flexibility for Performance
The new NEC NP1000 and NP2000 give the user the flexibility to determine the best set-up for their needs.
The NP’s offer both vertical and horizontal lens shift which accommodates near limitless projector
placement. Also, optional accessories include five bayonet style lenses, which allow for quick and easy lens
change. These projectors are bright enough to give the user the flexibility of having the lights on or off, in a
room of almost any size. The NP1000 is 3500 ANSI lumens and the NP2000 is 4000 ANSI lumens. Both
LCD projectors have a native resolution of XGA, 1024 x 768.

Integrated Networking and Asset Management
The NP1000/2000 includes integrated high speed wireless LAN IEEE 802.11b/g via an optional wireless
card. These projectors are specially equipped with presentation, broadcast, data conferencing and training
mode, giving the user the flexibility for virtually any wireless application. Also included is integrated RJ45
connection for quick connection to the wired network LAN (10/100 base-T capability).

Remote diagnostics enable the user to monitor and make adjustments to the projector remotely (via the
network from a remote location) to check the status of their projectors, making these the perfect installation
projectors for large corporations, small/medium business, government, rental/staging and educational
environments. Email notifications are another user-friendly feature included in the NP1000/2000, which can
be sent to inform the user when the lamp approaches end of life.

Extending the Life of the Projector
NEC has also incorporated features into the new installation projectors which increase the lamp and projector
life, as well as the safety and security of the user’s investment. The NP1000/2000 has an extended lamp life
with Eco-mode™ technology that increases lamp life by up to 50%. Also, added lamp saver technologies
enable the cooling fan to continue running even after the power source is disconnected, and built-in sensors
protect the lamp and projector from overheating. For added security, the NP’s include settings like logo lock,
password protection and cabinet control lock which enables the user to deactivate buttons on the cabinet to
prevent unwanted changes to projector settings.

Pricing and Warranty

The enhanced installation NEC NP1000 and NP2000 projectors are priced at $5,995* and $6,995.00,
respectively. Both projectors are now shipping.
