LUSTENAU, Austria, October 6, 2010 - IDENTEC SOLUTIONS, the global leader of active RFID and industrial
wireless sensor networks, announced today that it has acquired the assets of
Satellite Telemetry (Aust) Pty Ltd (Sattel) from container terminal operating
group DP World.

Previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of DP World, Sattel provides DGPS
based tracking and telemetry systems to the global container terminal
industry. The company has installations in Asia, Australasia, Europe and the
USA.

"Strengthening our position in this market has been part of our overall
strategic growth strategy," states Gerhard Schedler, President & CEO of
IDENTEC SOLUTIONS. "We assessed that this vertical would be better served by
having access to a comprehensive suite of solutions that are easily
integrated into existing infrastructure or leveraged from a single platform.
Sattel's technology proved to be a natural extension to our existing
solutions for the marine and intermodal market."

Over the past four years, IDENTEC SOLUTIONS has established a firm
foothold in the global marine terminal market, deploying wireless sensor
network systems for gate, yard and quay automation projects in Australia,
Europe, the USA and Latin America. By incorporating Sattel's hardware and
software into the company's total visibility and control platform, IDENTEC
SOLUTIONS can expand its marine & intermodal portfolio to include the
industry's most comprehensive range of systems. The suite of solutions
includes RFID, GPS, RTLS, sensor technologies, as well as a full range of
software applications.

DP World is the world's third-largest container terminal operator and is
among IDENTEC SOLUTIONS' marine and intermodal clients, as well as Total
Terminals International and Georgia Ports Authority.
