Access Systems Americas and Hop-on Settle Trademark Dispute

IRVINE, Calif., March 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Access Systems (NASDAQ:PALM) and Hop-on, Inc. (Pink Sheets: HPNN) announced on February 26, 2008 that the Company settled its Trademark dispute with Access Systems Americas, Inc. (formerly known as PalmSource, Inc.). The dispute between Hop-on and ASA regarding use and registration of the GRAFFITI Trademark has been resolved by a confidential agreement between the parties. This case was in the United States District Court for the Central District of California.

Hop-on will continue to own and use the Graffiti and Graffiti Wireless Trademarks in the categories designated on their USPTO Trademark application, which include mobile phones and providing wireless services.

ASA will continue to own and use the Graffiti trademark for its handwriting recognition software, operating system software, telecommunication service software and other categories designated in ASA's Graffiti Trademark and trademark application with the USPTO.

The reference to "Palm" in the February 26, 2008 press release was in error as Palm, Inc. is not related to Access Systems Americas and was not involved in any way in the lawsuit between Hop-on, Inc. and Access Systems Americas. Hop-on, Inc. regrets the error.
