MOTEK® TAKES TOP HONORS IN BANK OF AMERICA AWARDS PROGRAM
Warehouse Management Software Vendor Recognized for Spirit of Innovation

BEVERLY HILLS. CA (October 4, 1999) - Motek, the leading provider of supply chain execution systems for Microsoft Windows®, today announced that it has received the prestigious Bank of America Small Business Award. Sponsored by Bank of America, this award recognizes outstanding small businesses in the greater Los Angeles area.

Motek® won the award in the "Spirit of Innovation" category for its innovative warehouse management software product and its unique commitment to quality of life in the workplace.

Priya®, Motek's Warehouse Management System, is a user configurable packaged software product. Running under Microsoft Windows®, the system is cost-effective for 10-user facilities and powerful enough to support 200-user warehouses. Priya® has set the bar for price/performance in the warehouse management software arena.

Motek's innovative employee programs are relatively unheard of in corporate America. One-month vacations, catered lunches, and the opportunity to earn paid vacations to exotic destinations are just a few of the benefits Motek® employees enjoy. From the very beginning, Motek® CEO Ann Price has sought to redefine the employer/employee relationship by offering new and unusual employee programs and benefits.

"We thank Bank of America for honoring us with this award", said Price. "We have taken some unique approaches towards product development and employee/employer relations over the years that were contrary to more "mainstream" thinking. It is very rewarding to be recognized for doing what we felt was right, instead of following the crowd.

"Our judges found Motek® leading the pack by providing both an innovative product, and in their human resources practices", said Doug Sawyer, Bank of America Vice President, Small Business Banking. "Our heartiest congratulations go out to Ann and her team."
