Panasonic Avionics Corporation Selects Deutsche Telekom's T-Mobile for In-Flight Connectivity

LAKE FOREST, California, March 29, 2010 - Panasonic Avionics Corporation (www.panasonic.aero/) (Panasonic),
the world leader in state-of-the-art in-flight entertainment and
communication (IFEC) systems, today announced a new strategic agreement with
Deutsche Telekom. Under terms of the new arrangement, Deutsche Telekom with
its T-Mobile brand will be the preferred wireless internet service provider
for Panasonic Avionics' Global Communications Suite.

"Panasonic is excited to announce our new relationship with Deutsche
Telekom because we believe that the T-Mobile brand offers the perfect
complement to our Global Communications Suite," said Paul Margis, Chief
Executive Officer of Panasonic Avionics Corporation. "T-Mobile is an
established, best-in-class brand that offers an impressive portfolio of
global roaming agreements and an excellent experience in terms of customer
care, billing and support. In fact, in many instances, T-Mobile and its
roaming partners already enjoy strong relationships with many of the same
passengers that the airlines and Panasonic intend to serve. By combining
these T-Mobile advantages with the unique connectivity capabilities of our
Global Communications suite, Panasonic and Deutsche Telekom have the
potential to offer airline passengers and crew an unmatched experience in
broadband internet, data and voice communications."

"Joining forces with Panasonic Avionics Corporation in the field of
in-flight connectivity and bringing in our expertise of customer insights and
telecommunication trends opens huge opportunities for both partners," says
Philipp Humm, Chief Regional Officer Europe of Deutsche Telekom. "We are
looking forward to a successful future and to elevate communication services
to new heights."

Panasonic's Global Communications Suite provides high-speed broadband
internet, data and voice communications services to passengers and crew,
using a GSM or Wi-Fi -enabled device. Under the terms of this new agreement,
Deutsche Telekom will manage the internet gateway and handle passenger
billing and customer support for Wi-Fi services. In addition, Deutsche
Telekom will provide marketing and promotional support to drive utilization
of the services.

The Panasonic Global Communications Suite can be used as a stand-alone
service or be integrated with the aircraft's existing IFEC system. It offers
airlines the flexibility to provide passenger connectivity through
passenger-paid access to the Internet or through advertising-supported
content and sponsored Internet sessions. The Global Communications Suite
supports popular passenger online activities, such as accessing corporate
VPNs or intranets, browsing the Web, personal e-mail and instant messaging,
social networking and online shopping.
