ELIBRIUM AND CYBERLINK PARTNER TO DELIVER DVD AND VIDEO EDITING SOFTWARE TO
THE NORTH AMERICAN RETAIL MARKET

Worldwide Leader in DVD Software To Launch New Versions in Retail;
Company Joins Elibrium's Value-Added Publishing Partner Program

SAN MATEO, Calif., October 1, 2003 - CyberLink Corporation, a world leader and pioneer in bringing advanced digital video and audio software to the market, today selected Elibrium LLC, as the company's strategic North American software publishing partner.

Elibrium offers one of the industry's most efficient and cost effective solutions for selling products on North American retail shelves, and will help launch three new versions of CyberLink's DVD and video editing products into retail stores this month. The CyberLink products will be available in CompUSA, Frys Electronics, Micro Center and Best Buy. CyberLink products offer speed, quality and power to enhance consumers' DVD and video editing experience.

  • Power DVD 5.0 Standard - the latest version of the world acclaimed DVD player software that delivers cinema-like image perfection when viewing DVDs on the personal computer. This program uses advanced MPEG decoding and supports Dolby Digital 6.1/7.1, SRS TruSurround XT, Dolby Pro Logic II, and CLMEI™ (Multi-Channel Environment Impression) that delivers multi-channel audio from any two-channel encoded audio track.

  • Power DVD 5.0 Deluxe - the deluxe version of PowerDVD 5.0 supports the full range of audio features included in the Standard edition, as well as DTS Digital Surround, and the brand-new Dolby Virtual Speaker (DVS), which are designed to maximise the audio effects that make a movie unique.

  • PowerProducer 2.0 - an excellent software for authoring and burning your videos and photos on CD/DVD. Patented SVRT technology speeds video processing, while retaining the original video quality. This wizard-based program comes with complete functions to capture and edit videos, produce multimedia slideshows, customized menus and burn DVDs or CDs.

"Elibrium has a proven track record in working with global companies to promote consumer products on retail shelves. Elibrium's access to the North American retail channel was exactly what we needed, and a partnership was an obvious choice. We look forward to Elibrium's expertise to accelerate sales in the United States," said Alice H. Chang, CEO of CyberLink Corp.
