Company CEO Demonstrates Quellan's Growth Potential at
Leading Financial Conference

    NEW YORK, Needham & Co. Growth Stock Conference,
Jan. 9 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Quellan, a leader in analog
noise cancellation devices, today showcased its
revolutionary technology and confirmed once again the
company's vast potential for financial growth. 

    Quellan's adaptive Noise Cancellation Chips are a
subset of the ever expanding Analog IC market, expected to
grow to $46.9B in 2007.  Quellan's served market is
expected to exceed $3B, and consist of applications in Data
Centers, cell phones, consumer electronics, and automotive
segments. The benefits in these applications include fewer
dropped calls, instant GPS location locks in high density
urban areas and continuous video capability for high
quality mobile TV. 

    "Quellan's noise cancellation is an enabling
technology for adding wireless capability to high density,
small mobile systems," said Robert Dobkin, CTO of
Linear Technology Corporation.  "Today's mobile
systems have fast digital processors that step on low level
wireless signals, diminishing performance or even rendering
mobile operation unusable.  Quellan's noise cancellation
technology can get the signal back."

    iSuppli forecasts the Analog IC market will see
accelerated growth this year with revenue amounting to
$46.9 billion in 2007, up 11.2 percent from $42.3 billion
last year. 

    "A lot of people are going to kick themselves
because this is a simplistic low-cost solution," said
Charlie Glavin, an analyst at Needham and Co.

    Quellan's Noise Cancellers operate similar to Noise
Canceling Headphones, but at one million times higher
frequency -- in the radio frequency spectrum.  The devices
are embodied in tiny, ultra-low power CMOS silicon,
yielding tens of thousands of devices on a single silicon
wafer, making them very inexpensive and embeddable in any
consumer device. 

    "Noise is one of the main performance limiters for
leading consumer electronic products, especially within
digital wireless devices," said Bill Byun, Partner of
Samsung Ventures America.  "Quellan has a unique
solution to this problem that triggered our
investment."

    "We are delighted to be invited to such a
prestigious investment conference and look forward to
accelerating our growth ramp this year," said Quellan
CEO Tony Stelliga.
