Maxus Technology Inc. to Begin Delivery of Asset Disposition Services to Aviza Technology, Inc.


MORGAN HILL, Calif., May 26, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Maxus Technology Corporation, (OTCBB:MXUS) a leading provider of eWaste and Asset Recovery solutions, today announced that it has begun delivery of asset disposition solutions to Aviza Technology, Inc., a leading supplier of advanced semiconductor wafer processing equipment. Under the agreement, Maxus will manage end-of-life disposition alternatives and provide logistics solutions for older-generation information technology equipment at Aviza. The Maxus solutions will enable Aviza Technology, Inc. to minimize the risk factor generally associated with retiring IT equipment while maximizing their value recovered through resale activities.

Traditionally, IT equipment utilized by high technology companies run their course and are typically phased out. Such companies typically do not possess the resources necessary to assure they obtain optimum return on investment for such equipment. A comprehensive and complete asset recovery and eWaste recycling program is an efficient way for a company like Aviza Technology to derive maximum value from written down but usable corporate electronic assets. Aviza Technology continues to demonstrate its environmental proactiveness by ensuring assets that are at the end of their useful lives are properly dealt with.

"The Maxus Asset Disposition Solution ensures that our customers are optimizing their IT assets before they are phased out of operation," said David Smith, CEO of Maxus Technology Inc. "This partnership provides Aviza with a complete portfolio of services to optimize the IT lifecycle of their assets, making the Maxus Solution manageable and risk free."
