    Lowry Computer Products Awarded U.S. Government Blanket Purchase Agreement for Acquisition of RFID Products
    Previous RFID Class 1 Tag Award Expanded to Include RFID Hardware and Software
    BRIGHTON, Mich., Aug.05- Lowry Computer Products, Inc., a
    leading provider of wireless, RFID-EPC, bar code, and data collection
    solutions, today announced the award of a Blanket Purchase Agreement by the
    Army Contracting Agency (ACA).  This Group 3 award follows a Group 1 Lowry
    award for RFID-EPC Class 1 Tags.  Under the terms of this agreement, Lowry
    will supply the Department of Defense (DoD) with Zebra multi-protocol and
    Printronix EPC-1 enabled printers and supplies, as well as TEKLYNX CODESOFT(R)
    label design and integration software.
        “This BPA more narrowly defines the list of qualified bidders for
    government orders,” said Mark Brown, VP of New Business Development.  “Lowry
    is very enthusiastic about our potential opportunity to work with all branches
    of the DoD.”
        In July of 2004, the Acting Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition,
    Technology, and Logistics signed a memorandum and outlined a policy for the
    use of RFID within the Department of Defense (DoD).  The strategy was to take
    maximum advantage of the inherent life-cycle asset management efficiencies
    that can be realized by integrating RFID throughout the DoD.
        “The DoD can now leverage Lowry’s expertise with Zebra and Printronix RFID
    solutions to meet specific requirements for product identification, tracking,
    locating, and monitoring of assets and commodities within their own
    operations,” said Brown.  “In addition to relying on Lowry as a qualified
    source for RFID-EPC Class 1 tags, the DoD can now also rely on Lowry as an
    experienced, certified provider of Zebra and Printronix RFID solutions.”
        Lowry’s RFID solution expertise is a natural extension of more than
    twenty-five years of selling, installing and servicing Zebra and Printronix
    systems.  Drawing upon an extensive nationwide service network, Lowry provides
    authorized service for all lines of Zebra and Printronix printers.
