TENEBRIL INCORPORATED SELECTS ELIBRIUM AS STRATEGIC SOFTWARE PUBLISHING PARTNER

GhostSurf Pro Is Available in Retail Stores this Month;
Company Joins Elibrium's Rapidly Expanding Value-Added Publishing Partner Program

SAN MATEO, Calif., (December 1, 2003) Elibrium LLC announced today that software developer Tenebril Incorporated has selected Elibrium as its strategic publishing partner. Under the terms of the agreement, Elibrium has launched Tenebril's GhostSurf Pro product in retail outlets in North America.

Elibrium's publishing program enables Tenebril to sell the popular GhostSurf Pro software on retail shelves for significantly less cost and time than if Tenebril were to do it themselves. Leveraging its retail relations, Elibrium has secured broad distribution and lucrative product placements in thousands of retail outlets throughout North America, including Best Buy, Circuit City, CompUSA, Fry's Electronics, Micro Center, Office Depot, Office Max and Staples. GhostSurf Pro sells for $29.95.

GhostSurf Pro enables customers to surf the web anonymously, with the assurance that web sites, advertisers, Internet Service Providers and cyber criminals cannot track customers' names and physical address. This is becoming increasingly important as identify theft is on the rise. Additionally, GhostSurf Pro removes spyware, blocks hackers, and prevents annoying pop-up advertisements.

"Elibrium has proven to be a valuable partner by understanding our exact needs and timetable and helping us execute accordingly," said Joshua Blanchfield, CEO of Tenebril Incorporated. "We feel confident that, with Elibrium as our partner, GhostSurfPro will be able to reach an ever widening audience for whom identity theft, privacy invasions and other threats lurking in cyberspace are a major concern."

"Elibrium is proud of the highly successful launch of GhostSurf Pro. Retailers are excited about this product, as evidenced by the wide distribution, and the initial sales are excellent," said Christina Seelye, president and CEO of Elibrium. "Our program continues to help companies realize their products' potentials and then turn that success into increased revenues."
