Unity Wireless Enters Into Agreement for the Sale of Specific Assets and Manufacturing Services

Market Wire, March, 2008

Unity Wireless Corporation (OTCBB: UTYW) announces that it has signed an agreement for the sale of certain assets of the Company, including power amplifier and related products, design, IP (intellectual property), PO (purchase orders) and equipment located in its Burnaby, BC location and a Manufacturing services agreement with Moventis Wireless Inc. and PTL Electronics Ltd. of British Columbia, Canada.

Under the agreement, the purchase is non-cash, with Unity receiving consideration of USD$3 million which will be offset against a portion of its account payable to its contract manufacturer, PTL Electronics. In addition, Unity will be entitled to a royalty for a period of 3 years.

Closing of the above transaction is subject to receiving the approval of the transaction by certain lien holders on the company's assets as well as other conditions to be met as specified in the agreement. There is no assurance that this transaction will be completed.

Unity Wireless CEO Ilan Kenig commented: "This transaction helps Unity to reduce its debt significantly while establishing a new manufacturing arrangement for future and present orders with its long-time partner and outsource manufacturer PTL Electronics. In addition, this transaction will allow the Unity and its management team to focus on developing our main markets and product lines, particularly in India, Russia and North America."

"More specifically, we have seen growth in sales in India of our repeaters and TMA line, which we need to support, and we need to be closer to our customers in this region (mainly Nokia, Ericsson and Reliance). We are also seeing repeat orders coming from the recently announced winning bid in Russia, and the first order for our Wi-Max project in North America -- which was recently shipped. We are currently making preparations for the expected Wi-Max rollout by this major client. The agreement with Moventis and PTL will allow us to focus our attention and resources on these opportunities," added Ilan Kenig.
