NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS AND TECHNOVARE SYSTEMS ANNOUNCE NEW

SINGLE BOARD COMPUTER OPTIONS

Four New PC’s Provide Flexibility for Various Digital Signage Applications

Requiring Network Access

CHICAGO – June 7, 2010 – NEC Display Solutions of America

commercial LCD

board computer options, designed to be seamlessly integrated into select NEC large­format displays, as well as an external PC option. Technovare Systems, Inc., a rising AV
company based in California, has partnered with NEC to design and build the four new
accessories, which are ideal in airports, public information, healthcare, retail, quick­service restaurants and lobbies.

The new single board computer products can be seen at InfoComm 2010 (NEC Display
Solutions Booth No. N903) on June 9-11, 2010 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in
Las Vegas, Nev.

The NET-SBC-01, NET-SBC-02 and NET-SBC-03 are designed to be seamlessly
integrated into any NEC S Series, P Series or X Series display that contains the built-in
expansion slot. One of the most requested features by customers, the built-in expansion
slot gives users greater flexibility for application types and offers a clean, professional

display and projector solutions, announced today three new single

look to the setup. These components are frequently added to an existing deployment,
making the expansion slot in the majority of NEC’s large-format displays incredibly
valuable.

The modules feature a 1.6GHz Dual Core Atom CPU with Intel® Hyper-Threading
technology, 2GB DDR2 and Nvidia® 9400 graphic processing unit, which allows for
processing of multiple video formats and the ability to run full high-definition content at
1080P. These three single board computers provide network access through the use of
existing CAT5 network infrastructures, saving both time and money. The NET-SBC-01
and -03 models offer Windows® XP Pro Embedded operating system, while the NET­SBC-02 does not have an operating system, providing flexibility for those end-users who
wish to run Linux, Windows Vista or Windows 7. The NET-SBC-02 is ideal in large digital
signage deployments, such as corporate applications where each unit has identical
specified requirements, and end-users can automate the settings on the entire network
simultaneously, saving a large amount of backend time.

“Customers will enjoy the simple upgrade of their current digital signage systems that

comes with the purchase of a single board computer, whether internal or external,” said
Luke Bruschuk, Product Manager for NEC Display Solutions. “We base our displays on
what’s needed in the end-user application and hope to increase those opportunities by
adding these four modules to our extensive portfolio of accessories.”

The TNETPC-ION is an external PC option designed for those customers who have the
need for more hard drive space (160GB), expanded connectivity (Gigabit Ethernet, 6
USB 2.0 ports and RS-232) and WIFI. Also operating under Windows XP Pro Embedded,
the TNETPC-ION is fitting for those environments with more robust needs.

“This venture with NEC Display Solutions has been a wonderful opportunity to collaborate
on a solution truly designed for the end-user’s benefit,” said Barry Hsieh, Director of
International Sales at Technovare Systems, Inc. “The ability to have network access in a
seamless component, enhancing an existing project, is both cost-effective and hassle­free.”

The NET-SBC-O1/02/03 single board computers and the TNETPC-ION external PC will
be available for August shipment at an estimated street price of $899, $749, $899 and
$799, respectively, with a 3-year warranty.
