Adaptive Instruments Corporation Announces Strategic Changes

Hudson Massachusetts, July 15, 2009 - Adaptive Instruments Corporation (AIC), a global leader in process instrumentation technologies including the Accutech line of advanced wireless products, today announced the launch of a strategic initiative to better support the emerging global wireless marketplace.

As a result of these strategic changes Adaptive Instruments Corp has signed deals with two significant channels to market; Adaptive Wireless Solutions as a dedicated supplier of engineered traditional and wireless solutions, and Control Microsystems as the company responsible for the Accutech wireless instruments business worldwide.

Adaptive Wireless Solutions (AWS) is licensed to use Accutech enabled technology for OEM customers requiring engineered solutions going beyond the scope of the core Accutech product line. AWS has also bought the production facilities and rights to the AIC traditional product lines.

Control Microsystems will assume responsibility for all development, manufacturing and sales of the core Accutech wireless products through a dedicated division of the company. The fabrication of Accutech instruments at Control Microsystems has already commenced.

“Control Microsystems provides an optimized path to market for the Accutech technologies built up by Adaptive over time”, said Dana Krause, President of Control Microsystems. “Our company is poised to accelerate the Accutech wireless instruments business worldwide”.

“We are prepared to lead a new era of wireless solutions while we build on the expertise of our team in traditional instrumentation”, said Bruce Thompson, CEO of Adaptive Wireless Solutions, LLC. “Through the use of Accutech enabled advanced technology we will provide our customers with high value-added engineering and business solutions”.

Additional announcements will be forthcoming in the next weeks.
