INTEGO ANNOUNCES NEW EDIBLE PACKAGING

Intego Is the First Software Company to Introduce Organically-Grown Edible Packaging
Austin, TX -- April 1, 2010: Intego, the Macintosh security specialist, today announced
that the company’s packaging materials will now be made from organically-grown, edible
materials. Using rice- and soy-based packaging, and vegetable-based inks, all of
Intego’s boxes will be derived from organic raw materials, and will be edible.

Intego has long believed in the importance of sustainable development, and has always
tried to reduce the impact of its products on the environment. By introducing edible
packaging, Intego is taking a major step forward, as the process of eating packaging
greatly reduces the environmental impact of the company’s products. We hope that
other software companies, and other companies that use cardboard packaging, will
follow our lead.

Intego’s boxes will come in two flavors: the company’s VirusBarrier X6 box will be baconflavored,
and its Internet Security Barrier X6 box will be roast chicken-flavored. In
addition, each box will include packets of low-fat, low-salt, naturally-flavored salad
dressing: French dressing for VirusBarrier X6, and blue-cheese dressing for Internet
Security Barrier X6. Standard license boxes, good for protecting up to two Macs, will
contain two packets of salad dressing; family pack boxes, which protect up to five Macs,
will contain five packets.

In addition, nutritional information for the box and salad dressing is printed on the sides
of the boxes.

Only those boxes bearing a logo saying “eat me!” are edible.

Intego will start shipping its software in these new boxes on April 1, 2010.
