ELIBRIUM SIGNS BOOMERANG SOFTWARE AS THE FIRST
PARTNER IN THE NEWLY ANNOUNCED PUBLISHING MODEL

SAN MATEO, Calif. - Elibrium LLC, the leading publisher of productivity software, announced today that it has signed an agreement with Boomerang Software to be its Value Added Publishing Partner. Boomerang Software is the first company to take advantage of Elibrium's recently announced publishing model, which offers the industry's most efficient and cost effective solution for selling products on retail shelves. Boomerang's products will soon appear in the thousands of U.S. outlets that Elibrium maintains successful retail partnerships with, including, Office Max, Fry's and MicroCenter.
Under the terms of the agreement, Elbrium will publish Boomerang's web authoring products and a new line of utility products under Boomerang's premier brand, eXtendia. Boomerang has sold products at retail since 1994, and worked with publishers since 2000. However, its new line of utility products demands a channel distribution network with a proven track record of success.

"Boomerang chose Elibrium to publish our successful line of Web publishing tools and new line of utility products due to Elibrium's strong retailer relationships, packaging expertise, wide-channel distribution, as well as their historical success as a publisher of their MySoftware products and other private label products," said Richard Bezjian, president and CEO of Boomerang Software.

"We are pleased that Boomerang is taking advantage of two of Elibrium's core competencies-- expanding distribution and launching new products," said Christina Seelye, president and CEO of Elibrium, "Elibrium will focus on growth of the Web authoring tools and will execute a high visibility launch of the new line of eXtendia utilities to realize increased revenue for their well-designed products."

Elibrium has been developing, marketing and selling products successfully at retail for more than 16 years; and private labeling software for over 10 years. Combining experienced product management, in-house packaging design, effective supply chain management systems, proven direct retailer relationships--and backed by a management team offering more than 80 years of collective experience in retail software--Elibrium's publishing solutions provide developers with a low risk method of quickly and effectively expanding revenue.
