About Nanotech

Nanotech has been a leading innovator in the design and commercialization of advanced security products using nano- optical devices. Nanotech's KolourOptikTM and PlasmogramTM optically variable devices ("OVD"s) are nanotechnology based product platforms originally inspired by the unique optical properties of the iridescent wings of the Blue Morpho butterfly. Nanotech OVD images produce intense, high definition images that are ideal for brand authentication and for distinguishing currency, documents, personal identification, consumer electronics, etc. from fakes. Nanotech's KolourOptik OVD platform creates unique, easy to authenticate images through interaction of light with nano-sized (billionth of a meter) arrays of surface indentation structures imbedded through algorithms and electron beams into various substrates. These nanostructures create vivid colour images, activated by a simple tilt or rotation, and achieve higher resolutions than the best LED-displays currently available, as well as having optical properties not achievable with holograms.

ADVISORIES

This news release contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements about our market opportunities, strategies, competition, and Nanotech's views that its nano-optical technology will continue to show promise for mass production and commercial application. The principal risks related to these forward-looking statements are that Nanotech's intellectual property claims will not prove sufficiently broad or enforceable to provide the necessary commercial protection and to attract the necessary capital and/or that Nanotech's products will not be able to displace entrenched hologram, metalized strip tagging, and other conventional anti-counterfeiting technologies sufficiently to allow for profitability.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect Nanotech's expectations only as of the date of this news release. Nanotech disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
