Re Contract

Quadnetics Group PLC 27 September 2004 Press Release 27 September 2004 Quadnetics Group plc Landmark contract win in North America Quadnetics Group plc ('Quadnetics') subsidiary Synectic Systems Limited (' Synectics') has won an important contract to supply a CCTV digital recording system for use in a large casino in Ontario, Canada. The contract incorporates an advanced technology digital recording and control system covering approximately 1600 cameras, and Quadnetics believes it will be the largest and most sophisticated such system so far installed in the world. The initial value of the order is in excess of US $2 million. The contract award followed an extensive tender and technical evaluation process in competition with leading US and European digital CCTV equipment manufacturers. The system will be supplied through a US installation and service partner, and is due for delivery in November 2004. It incorporates Synectics' award-winning Synergy(TM) software control system and graphical user interface, as well as proprietary software and hardware developed for the company's landmark UK applications, including Manchester City centre. Synectics also gained valuable support from its partnership with IBM, which is supplying the computer hardware. Russ Singleton, Chief Executive of Quadnetics, commented: 'This is the first major Synectics system to be installed in North America. We believe it is an important beachhead project, giving us a tangible base from which to extend our relationships with local US and Canadian installers and end customers in the casino, homeland defence and wider security sectors. Evidence in the marketplace suggests that Synectics' products are as good as or better than anything else currently available in the advanced technology digital CCTV field and we intend to capitalise as fully as we can on this opportunity.'
