After the successful launch of its console accessories business under the
brand 'Nitho' in September 2009, Raptor Gaming Technology GmbH, daughter
company of Raptor Technology AG (ISIN: CH0100475216; Austrian Code: RAP;
WKN: A0RLJU) will now further develop its line up for console gamers.

With annual revenues of more than 50 billion USD, 'Gaming' became bigger
than Hollywood. In the US and the UK more than 60% of all households play
games on consoles or PC. Germany is with a bit more than 30% of all
households behind this trend and offers big growth potential. Therefore
Germany is the first main focus to further develop the revenue with the new
business unit console accessories.

More than 60% of all Hardcore-PC-Gamers do own at least one console. The
current problem for most of these Gamers is that they need to adjust to new
equipment if they move from playing on a PC to the console. Therefore
Raptor Gaming Technology will put big development efforts in supplying
these Gamers with multiplatform equipment, so that they do not need to
adjust anymore regardless of the platform they use.

The business with pure console accessories under 'Nitho' will also be
pushed heavily forward. With the inclusion of professional console gamers
and the gained development know how in PC-Gaming new product concepts will
be introduced into the market.

Based on this philosophy two new products for Sony PlayStation(R)3 just
arrived to the market. The 'Nitho Driving Kit' and the 'Nitho Gamer's Kit'.

The 'Nitho Driving Kit' is the ultimate solution to improve the game
performance and experience for racing games. It includes two professional
trigger extensions to improve the use of L2 and R2 buttons, comfortable
extension to control the analog stick of the controller and a silicone body
with tire shape to maximize the grip of the controller.

The 'Nitho Gamer's Kit' extends the delivery content of the 'Nitho Driving
Kit' by an additional bag in controller shape and inner pockets to host all
accessories and cables and a USB SD/MMC card reader.
