ACTIFY ANNOUNCES SPINFIRE 2004 SERVICE PACK ONE WITH SUPPORT FOR MACROVISION FLEXLM™

Supports Macrovision's FLEXlm Version 9.2 Floating License Manager,
Permitting License Borrowing


San Francisco, Calif– June 22, 2004 – Actify Inc., the worldwide leader in client-server design visualization and collaboration solutions for the high technology, automotive, industrial automation and discrete manufacturing industries, today announced the availability of SpinFire 2004 Service Pack One with support for Macrovision's FLEXNet universal software licensing technologies (FLEXlm) which permits license borrowing. With SpinFire Professional's supports of FLEXlm version 9.2 and the licensing borrowing environment, customers will realize cost savings and convenience through flexible software license management options.

Macrovision's FLEXlm product is a software licensing platform that provides a range of license management capabilities for software publishers and enterprises. The platform streamlines software business costs by simplifying operations and logistics.

"The availability of FLEXlm will further enhance the value of SpinFire for companies by allowing them to allocate licenses on demand and for off-line users," said John MacKrell, senior consultant with CIMData. "In addition to reducing overall cost, more people will be able to take advantage of the high value of viewing and working with 3D design information. This is a significant step in providing ubiquitous access to knowledge that can foster more innovation in products and services that organizations can provide."

"Corporations can control cost through the flexibility of floating license technology, allowing a group of users to share a pool of SpinFire Pro 2004 licenses," said Randy Ochs, president and CEO of Actify. "The new borrowing functionality extends our flexibility by removing the requirement that a computer running a floating license application be continuously attached to the network. Therefore, a user can disconnect from the network and still retain their license allowing them to take software on the road or offsite."
