*****For Immediate Release(June 29, 2004) NEC SOLUTIONS AMERICA ANNOUNCES NEW TPC-C BENCHMARK RESULTS ON INTEL® ITANIUM® 2-BASED SERVER

Santa Clara, Calif. - June 29, 2004- NEC Solutions (America), Inc., a premier provider of integrated solutions for the Connected Enterprise in North America, announced today a new TPC benchmark score conducted on a 32- ® ® way NEC server running OracleDatabase 10g Enterprise Edition, BEA Tuxedoand SUSE LINUX Enterprise ® ®® Server . Testing was conducted on a 32-way, NEC Express5800/1320Xd server based on IntelItanium 2 1 processors. TPC-Cis an industry-standard benchmark for measuring a system's processing performance based on an enterprise transaction model for handling orders.

2 The new 683,575 transactions per minute (tpmC)benchmark score and price-performance ratio of $5.99/tpmC was achieved, in part, by leveraging NEC's highly scalable, ccNUMA system architecture utilizing 32 Intel Itanium 2 processors. Oracle Database 10g is designed to take advantage of system and processor advancements such as those made by both NEC and Intel Corporation. Oracle's enhancements enable the database to scale to the next generation of 64-bit computing environments. Developed in close collaboration with Intel and Oracle, SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server for Intel Itanium Processor Family is designed to meet the highest requirements in terms of scalability and performance. Integrating BEA TUXEDO with NEC's highly scalable ccNUMA system architecture demonstrates the full power of NEC's solution in the rugged TPC-C test environment. Indicating the power these solutions can have in real-world enterprise solutions.

"NEC's new TPC-C benchmark results are a testimony to our ongoing commitment to Novell's platform. We are proud to be the first vendor to demonstrate the scalability of SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9" said Larry Sheffield, senior vice president of Solutions Platform Group at NEC Solutions America. "Our results prove that SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server with NEC's high-performance Itanium 2 servers exemplifies the scalability and performance capabilities in the scale up enterprise market."

"This benchmark validates the value of Linux across the enterprise," said Richard Sarwal, vice president of Server Performance at Oracle Corp. "Clearly Linux can scale on large SMPs to provide customers with low-cost computing options even at the high end of the market."
