Market Wire, December, 2004

I/ITSEC -- Right Hemisphere, a leading provider of enterprise software for intelligent 3D publishing solutions, today announced it has formed a Government Advisory Board. Comprised of former military flag officers from the U.S. Air Force, Navy, Army, and Marine Corps, the Right Hemisphere Government Advisory Board is tasked with providing strategic and technical guidance to Right Hemisphere on military defense industry needs. The board will help Right Hemisphere determine customer requirements and navigate defense industry budgetary, procurement, and regulatory processes.

"We receive much of our information today about defense industry pain points from partners and customers like Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and Sikorsky," said Michael Lynch, CEO of Right Hemisphere. "While this has served us well, our Government Advisory Board's vast cumulative experience in the defense industry is invaluable. We look forward to tapping this knowledge base as we grow our software portfolio to meet the changing needs and processes of the defense and manufacturing communities."

The Right Hemisphere Government Advisory Board will be directed by the company's CEO, Michael Lynch. The board is comprised of the following military experts:

General William W. Crouch's career spans 36 years during which he commanded a platoon, several companies -- two of which were in combat -- an armored cavalry squadron, the 2nd Armored Cavalry Regiment and the 5th Infantry Division. Before his retirement, he was the U.S. Army's Vice Chief of Staff. Since retiring, Crouch serves as one of the five generals who oversee the Army's Battle Command Training Program (BCTP). He is also a Senior Fellow with the National War College Capstone Program where he trains newly appointed brigadier generals and rear admirals. Crouch is also associated with the Naval Post Graduate School in Monterey, CA.
