EADS and RIM Join Forces to Deliver BlackBerry to Government Organizations in Europe
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands & WATERLOO, Ontario --(Business Wire)-- June 6, 2005 -- EADS and Research In Motion (RIM) (Nasdaq:RIMM)(TSX:RIM) have agreed to form a strategic alliance focused on delivering localized wireless data solutions to government organizations across Europe. The companies began working together earlier this year with an initial focus on achieving security certification of the BlackBerry(R) wireless platform for use within the Government of France.

BlackBerry is already the leading wireless data solution for government agencies in North America, and RIM is expanding its efforts with government customers around the world. Individual countries typically set their own specific requirements and processes to certify communications technologies for government use; and EADS and RIM intend to work closely to achieve localized certifications of BlackBerry in a range of government sectors throughout Europe.

"Government customers are a strategic focus for RIM and we are very pleased to be working with EADS to address the localized security requirements of government organizations in Europe," said Mike Lazaridis, President and Co-CEO at RIM. "EADS has tremendous credentials and respect within security communities in Europe and we believe this alliance will be welcomed by both government and corporate customers who are eager to deploy the BlackBerry wireless platform to enhance operations, productivity and responsiveness."

"Wireless data technologies represent one of the most significant strategic IT opportunities available today for government and corporate organizations alike and EADS looks forward to expanding our efforts with RIM to help customers mobilize their organizations. We will bring to the table our technology and our market know-how with defence and homeland security customers", said Tom Enders, CEO of the Defence and Security Systems Division (DS) and member of the EADS Board of Directors.

The collaboration between EADS and RIM has already enabled significant progress toward satisfying European government requirements. EADS Corporate Research Center recently completed an extensive security review and RIM has addressed all requirements presented by EADS to date. The companies plan to continue working together to complete the government security certification processes.

"The collaboration of EADS Corporate Research Center with RIM has been outstanding and mutually beneficial," added Jean-Louis Gergorin, Head of EADS Strategic Coordination and member of the EADS Executive Committee. "We will continue to work with RIM to enhance security features and ensure our customers' strict security requirements continue to be satisfied as technologies evolve."

BlackBerry allows government employees to stay connected with secure, wireless access to email, data, phone, web and organizer features, and helps employees respond quicker and make decisions faster. The end results for government agencies can include an increase in knowledge sharing, a stronger connection to constituents and more efficient and adaptive processes. BlackBerry is already widely used by government personnel, and the government sector currently accounts for approximately ten percent of all BlackBerry subscribers.

Airtel Introduces the Globally Acclaimed BlackBerry 7100g in India
NEW DELHI, India & WATERLOO, Ontario --(Business Wire)-- June 7, 2005 -- Airtel, India's leading mobile service provider and Research In Motion (TSX:RIM)(NASDAQ:RIMM) today introduced the globally acclaimed, BlackBerry 7100g(TM) business phone in India. Another first from Airtel in India, this innovative business phone is the result of years of research and development by Research In Motion and incorporates SureType(TM) keyboard technology with the best combined wireless phone, e-mail & data experience for users who prefer a traditional 'candy bar' handset design. Airtel's widening portfolio of BlackBerry(R) products will help in expanding the adoption of BlackBerry in India.

The BlackBerry 7100g from Airtel is a breakthrough innovation that packs all the benefits of BlackBerry into a traditional 'candy bar' phone design. The BlackBerry 7100g combines a full featured quad-band mobile phone that includes Bluetooth(R) support and speakerphone with push-based wireless email, text messaging, web browser and personal organizer applications - all on a large and bright, high-resolution color screen. The BlackBerry 7100g has been developed for active mobile professionals who want to manage their work wherever they are and also keep in touch with family, friends and the latest news using an all-in-one handset.

Announcing the launch of the BlackBerry 7100g in India, Mr. Atul Bindal, Director & Chief Marketing Officer, Bharti Cellular Limited, said, "Airtel is the first and only service provider in India to offer BlackBerry. BlackBerry has been well received by both Airtel's prosumer and enterprise customers. The launch of the BlackBerry 7100g will catalyze further growth of BlackBerry in India as it gives customers more choice and meets their mobile lifestyle needs and preferences."

According to Don Morrison Chief Operating Officer, at Research In Motion, "The BlackBerry 7100g and its innovative SureType keyboard technology delivers a compelling phone and messaging experience in a sleek and stylish design. Airtel's strong technical and service capabilities add significant value and we think the combined offering will be very appealing to customers looking to upgrade from their existing mobile phone."

The BlackBerry 7100g incorporates SureType(TM), an innovative keyboard technology that effectively converges a phone keypad and a QWERTY keyboard to fit elegantly within the size constraints of a traditional 'candy bar' phone design.. The BlackBerry 7100g allows four hours talk time and eight days standby time and features quad-band support (850/900/1800/1900 MHz).

For individuals and smaller businesses, BlackBerry Internet Service(TM) allows users to access up to ten corporate and/or personal email accounts (including Microsoft(R) Exchange, IBM Lotus(R) Domino(TM) and many popular ISP email accounts) from a single device.

For corporate customers, BlackBerry Enterprise Server(TM) software tightly integrates with Microsoft Exchange, IBM Lotus Domino and Novell GroupWise(R) and works with existing enterprise systems to enable secure, push-based, wireless access to email and other corporate data.

Airtel currently offers three models in India - the BlackBerry 7730(TM), the BlackBerry 7230(TM) and the BlackBerry 6230(TM). Within 8 months of launching BlackBerry in India, premier clients in India include Ernst & Young, GE Capital, HSBC Bank, Wipro Technologies, Standard Chartered Bank, Infosys, Siemens, Gillette India, Star TV, Morgan Stanley, McKinsey & Company, Master Card, Hewitt, Johnson & Johnson among other large organizations.
