NanoOpto Secures Additional $4-Million in Venture Financing; Funding Will be Used to Accelerate Next Generation Optical Components to the Market

SOMERSET, N.J., Apr 16, 2002 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- NanoOpto Corp., which is
applying proprietary nano-optics and nano-manufacturing technology to design and
manufacture components for optical networking, announced today that it has
closed on an additional $4 million completing its Series "A" round of venture
financing.

The new financing comes from two funds within the Draper Fisher Jurvetson (DFJ)
network, DFJ New England and DFJ Gotham, and the Harris & Harris Group, as well
as matching investments from the existing equity partners, Bessemer Venture
Partners, Morgenthaler Ventures, New Enterprise Associates, and U.S. Trust's
Excelsior Venture Partners III, LLC. This additional $4 million brings the total
financing raised by NanoOpto to date to $20M.

NanoOpto is designing and manufacturing a new class of optical components, known
as subwavelength optical elements (SOEs), which increase the density,
functionality, and integration levels of optical systems while reducing overall
costs. SOEs are manufactured using proprietary nano-fabrication technology that
can produce nano-optical components on a chip. NanoOpto recently announced that
it is shipping samples of its polarization management subwavelength optical
components to prospective customers for testing, as well as the production of
its first wafer in its new nano-fabrication facility at its Somerset
headquarters location.

"NanoOpto is pleased to add Draper Fisher Jurvetson and Harris & Harris Group to
our base of investors," says Barry Weinbaum, NanoOpto President and CEO. "They
recognize the breakthrough potential of NanoOpto's combination of unique,
high-value optical components and patented nano-manufacturing technology. The
new financing allows us to accelerate our plans for delivering next generation
devices to the marketplace."
