Bridgewater Named No. 1 Leader in Policy Market

New Report Shows Significant Share Gain in Mobile Policy Segment

OTTAWA, Canada, March 25, 2010 - Bridgewater Systems (TSX: BWC), the mobile personalization company, today
announced that the company has been recognized as the 2009 policy server
market leader by Infonetics Research in its April 2010 report "Policy Servers
Biannual Worldwide and Regional Market Size, Share, and Forecasts."

    News

    -   The Infonetics report noted that Bridgewater's position as the No. 1
        market share leader in both the overall and mobile policy server
        market is due to the company's success in 3G and 4G networks. The
        report further states that the mobile policy server market will
        continue to grow rapidly over the next five years as the market
        shifts from fixed to mobile deployments, reaching US$1.2 billion in
        2014.

    -   Service providers are increasingly implementing policy controls to:

        -  Optimize 3G networks using intelligent policy controls to
           alleviate radio access network congestion, ensure fair usage, and
           give subscribers greater control over their mobile data usage;

        -  Offload mobile data traffic from congested 3G networks to Wi-Fi,
           femtocells, or 4G networks;

        -  Transform to 4G and control subscribers, devices, and applications
           to ensure service portability across 3G and 4G networks; and

        -  Deliver innovative services such as usage and application based
           models using flexible policy controls, real-time subscriber
           information, and dynamic metering capabilities.

    -   The Bridgewater(R) Policy Controller, which supports 3GPP PCRF
        Release 7, 8 and 9 standards on the same platform, provides real-time
        network, application, and subscriber policies to manage mobile data
        growth and deliver personalized services.
