Monday December 6, 8:11 am Eastern Time Company Press Release Dense-Pac Expands Plant to Accommodate Staff Increase Expanding Lease in Present Facility for Operations Growth GARDEN GROVE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 6, 1999--Dense-Pac Microsystems, Inc. (Nasdaq:DPAC - news), a leading edge provider of high density semiconductor packaging solutions, today announced that it has expanded its current facility by 75 percent by leasing additional space. This move follows Dense-Pac's recent announcement of its plan to increase its operating staff by 60% in response to the growing demand for its high-density technology. The lease is for a term of one year, after which the Company's management intends to re-assess its long-term facility needs. ''The additional space is needed to house the personnel and production-line expansion we initiated in response to the growth Dense-Pac has been experiencing over of the last five quarters,'' commented Ted Bruce, President and Chief Executive Officer of Dense-Pac Microsystems. ''We chose to expand the use of our existing leased facility because it presented the least number of distractions and economic hurdles in the short term; however, we expect to re-examine Dense-Pac's facility needs next summer in relationship to our long-term strategy.''
