Here Irish is a copy of correspondence I had with XYBR regarding the licensing by IBM of XYBR patents. (Note: I've removed my email address and that of Ms. Macken's). The text as follows: From: Monique Macken To: "'MSB'" Subject: RE: Answers to your questions. Date: Wed, 25 Nov 1998 14:54:12 -0500 Dear MSB, The information that I give you is public, so you have my permission to post it. With regards to your questions about IBM. Under SEC rules, I am not at liberty to discuss anything that has not been made public first. We have not put out a press release about a liscencing agreement with IBM. To find all the press releases that have been put out, go to the following website:hoovers.com It will be easy to pick out the IBM press releases.

I feel I've kept abreast of XYBR pretty much, but I'm still a little in the dark about the patents XYBR has and how much of IBM's wearable product is licensed from XYBR. I guess what I'd like to know is whether or not IBM is paying a licensing fee to XYBR for its technology. Perhaps it would be helpful if you could tell me the date of the news release so I can go back and search for it in the news release archives. Also, may I have permission to post your responses on the Silicon Investor stock talk board? Thanks for the response. I promise, I'm not going to be a pest. :-) Thanks again and hope you'll have a safe and happy Thanksgiving Day as well. All the best, MSB ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The above suggests to me that XYBR has not let out any information regarding whether or not IBM has licensed any of XYBR's technology.
