EVAULT EXPANDS OPERATIONS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM

Names Top U.K. Resellers, Establishes Offices in Chertsey

Chertsey, Surrey, U.K. — January 17, 2005 —EVault, Inc., the leading provider of online backup and recovery solutions, today announced its expansion in the European market, with the signing of seven top-tier IT solution providers in the United Kingdom.

G-Stor, MTI, Plum Data, Redstor, Solid-State Solutions (S3) Sungard Availability Services U.K and Trisys are offering EVault InfoStage™ backup and recovery software and services to businesses with remote offices, such as legal, banking and professional services that need a secure, cost-effective method of centralizing their backup processes. EVault InfoStage offers these businesses a proven, disk-to-disk backup alternative to cumbersome, management-intensive tape backup schemes. With EVault InfoStage, businesses can leverage their existing hardware and network infrastructure, resulting in faster backups and easy, user-initiated restores.

“EVault InfoStage exceeds the requirements of mid-tier and enterprise companies with limited IT manpower that need a highly reliable centralized backup and recovery solution,” says Andy Hill, sales director at S3. “This is an excellent opportunity for us to combine our extensive IT services with EVault’s best-of-breed backup technology to deliver comprehensive data protection solutions to our customers.”

Recognizable customers already on board

Industry leaders across the U.K., including Aedas, Thomson Publishing, Prêt a Manger, Fitzpatrick construction, Lees Lloyd Whitley, and Poster Publicity have already trusted the back up and recovery of their business-critical data to EVault InfoStage.

“EVault InfoStage has significantly streamlined our backup and recovery processes by giving our IT staff greater operational control of backing up data located in remote offices,” says Antony Nicholls, IT director at Lees Lloyd Whitley, a solicitor with offices throughout the U.K. “We no longer require an investment in backup-related equipment and manpower at each remote site.”

“We’re excited to work with some of the leading European IT solution providers to offer companies like Lees Lloyd Whitley a secure, centralized solution that significantly eases the pain of backing up and restoring their remote-office data,” said Phil Gilmour, EVault president and CEO.

European expansion planned in 2005

Phil Evans, director of business development (EMEA), will manage the EVault office in Chertsey and oversee country managers throughout the region. EVault plans to expand beyond the U.K. and into Central and Southern Europe throughout the remainder of the year. William da Cunha, vice president of international business development, will lead the company’s continued European expansion.
