Berkeley Software Design Inc. Licenses
Java Application Environment
Brings Java to Popular Internet Service Provider Platform

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Feb. 2, 1998) Berkeley Software Design Inc.
(BSDI), has licensed the Java' Application Environment (JAE) from Sun
Microsystems to include in upcoming releases of BSDI Internet Server and
e/BSD, the embedded systems technology for developers of network
appliances.

"With this license, BSDI will include Java on the best-supported and most
robust Internet Server in the industry," said Randy Brem, Vice President of
Embedded Technology Sales with BSDI. "BSDI has access to the latest Java
developments directly from Sun, and will incorporate them in our products
in a timely fashion. Thousands of ISP customers and embedded device
development partners who rely on BSDI have been clamoring for Java. We're
excited to offer it."

"The Java platform brings the unparalleled benefit of "Write Once, Run
Anywhere'" to applications, services and technologies," said David
Spenhoff, Director of Product Marketing at Sun Microsystems' JavaSoft
division. "By utilizing the power of the Java platform, BSDI products
should become even more valuable to customers and partners developing and
deploying advanced networking applications."

Specifics of the Agreement
BSDI joins a large number of Java technology licensees in embracing the
JAE. With this license, BSDI has access to JavaSoft's complete application
execution environment, including the Java Virtual Machine and all required
class libraries.

By virtue of the licensing arrangement with Sun, BSDI will provide its
users and development partners a high degree of technical support, and
plans to register their products in the Java Solutions Guide, as well as
support Sun's Java Select Program' for developers.

The Appeal of the Java Platform The Java platform is important to open
computing, and as such it has become a popular environment for developing
network management utilities, Web pages, and other object-oriented
applications. Developers are adopting the Java language because they can
reuse software components across applications to economically get their
products to more markets faster. Availability and Pricing Java will be
included in an upcoming BSDI Internet Server release in summer 1998. It
will be available to network appliance developers using e/BSD technology in
the same timeframe.
