Copernic Expands Software Reach by Announcing its New "Partners in Education" Program

Market Wire, November, 2007

Copernic Inc., (NASDAQ: CNIC), a leader in internet and desktop search technology and online advertising, today announced the launch of the Partners in Education program as a means to grow educational and corporate market presence, increase software sales through site licensing and sponsorship, as well as to expand brand awareness.

The Information Management Toolkit is a suite of products to help students and professionals manage information overload and will be available as a single downloadable package that contains the Copernic Desktop Search® software search engine, Copernic Agent Personal Edition®, Copernic Summarizer® and Copernic Tracker®. The toolkit will be available through two means:

- Site licensing by universities, colleges and high schools at special academic pricing

- Corporate sponsorship, by allowing companies to target and promote specific messages to key subdivisions of the academic audience.

"Corporate sponsorship is a win-win scenario. Students and educators receive free sponsored software that will assist in searching, finding and managing valuable content now and throughout their careers." said Martin Bouchard, President and CEO of Copernic "Furthermore, corporations will receive exposure that is continuous, persistent and prominent as the software in the toolkit appears directly on the desktop of the user's computer and consists of tools that are used everyday."

Through the Program, corporations such as Pharmaceutical Companies can choose to target and promote individual messages to specific pharmacy, medical, or nursing schools or to an entire industry group. Corporations can also sponsor programs for practicing professionals as well.

Free trials of the software that is included in the Partners in Education Program can be downloaded at: http://www.copernic.com/en/products/index.html .
