Award recognizes Sarnoff’s High Performance Standards for Delivering Quality Reliable Components to Support the Warfighter

PRINCETON, N.J. – September 25, 2006 – Sarnoff Corporation today
announced that the Defense Supply Center Columbus (DSCC) has awarded
Sarnoff’s Generalized Emulation of Microcircuits (GEM) program the 2006
Supplier Excellence Gold Award.

The award recognizes contractors who maintain the highest
performance standards, including manufacturing 50 or more delivery line
items over a 12-month period of time, 100 percent on-time delivery
performance and no packaging, quality or marking deficiencies.
Additionally, the award recognizes exceptional business ethics and
integrity among other factors.

“The award speaks to the trust that DSCC has placed in Sarnoff’s
ability to deliver on-time, cost-effective products that adhere to the
most demanding safety and performance requirements,” said Jim Hengle,
Sarnoff’s managing director of Emulation Products and Technology.

For nearly 20 years, the Emulation Products and Technology division
of Sarnoff has operated under the GEM program, developed in partnership
with Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and DSCC as a supply solution for
microcircuits in the Diminishing Manufacturer Sources and Material
Shortages (DMSMS) market.

Sarnoff designs and manufactures GEM parts in its onsite DSCC
Qualified Manufacturers Listing (QML) certified semiconductor foundry,
allowing Sarnoff to support requirements through the system lifecycles.
From initial production requirements through end-of-life sustainment
needs, Sarnoff provides long-term availability and a continuing source
of supply long after other sources have exhausted their inventories or
discontinued manufacture.
