Business Wire, May 9, 2005

LEXINGTON, Mass. -- Revivio(R), Inc., the leader in enterprise continuous data protection (CDP), today announced it has appointed Mike Thompson to its board of directors. An experienced industry veteran and current chief operating officer (COO) of Egenera, a leader in utility computing, Thompson will help Revivio to continue to build its leadership position in the CDP space, as well as help guide the company's long-term business strategy.

"We are fortunate to be able to add someone of Mike's caliber to Revivio's board of directors," said Paul Lewis, chief executive officer of Revivio. "Mike's extensive experience selling mission-critical computing systems to enterprise-class customers, as well as his rich background in both domestic and international sales operations, will be strategically beneficial to us as we continue to build Revivio into a world-class competitor in the data protection marketplace."

"Revivio's implementation of CDP technology is changing the way organizations think about protecting data. No longer must they be restricted to complicated and expensive processes to restore information and applications in the event of a data loss, corruption or disaster," said Thompson. "I am delighted to become a member of Revivio's board and contribute to such a paradigm-shifting technology. I look forward to working with the company and assisting them in meeting their wide-ranging opportunities ahead."

Thompson currently serves as Egenera's chief operating officer. In this role, he is responsible for sales, business development, marketing, customer service and professional services. He joined the company in early 2002, just as product shipments were getting underway. Since then, Egenera has grown into one of the fastest-growing technology companies of the past 20 years, with sales, distribution and support worldwide. Prior to Egenera, Thompson was senior vice president of worldwide sales and marketing at Stratus Technologies, where he also served on its board of directors. Prior to Stratus, Thompson served as director of U.S. sales operations for the financial line of business at Tandem Computers, directing sales and support to the nation's top 120 finance accounts. Thompson holds a Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics from Southern Connecticut University.
