VITEX SYSTEMS’ LICENSEE, ANS, SECURES ORDER FOR GUARDIAN™ THIN-FILM ENCAPSULATION
SYSTEM FROM MAJOR JAPANESE COMPANY
Signals Continued Adoption of Thin-film Encapsulation within OLED Industry
SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 22, 2007 – Vitex Systems, Inc. a leading technology developer, licensor and
engineering service provider for thin-film encapsulation and moisture barrier films, today announced that its
equipment licensee, Advanced Neotech Systems (ANS) of Korea, has secured a purchase order for its
Guardian™ thin-film encapsulation system from a major Japanese customer.
“We are very glad to have successfully entered into the Japanese market—as this marks another major
milestone for ANS after our recent successes in both Korea and Europe,” said BK Chun, general manager of
sales for ANS. “We’re pleased to see the thin-film encapsulation market finally take off after years of research
and development. We recently established a branch office in Dresden, Germany a few months ago, and will
continue to invest and work closely with our customers to ensure their success.”
Commenting on its successes, Chyi-Shan Suen, director of sales and marketing for Vitex, said, “ANS delivered
the first Guardian™ thin-film encapsulation system to Samsung SDI in 2005. ANS again successfully delivered
the Guardian™ system to MicroEmissive Displays (MED) for their production line. We are pleased with this latest
victory, which is a signal that thin-film encapsulation continues to gain broader adoption within the OLED
industry.”
About ANS
ANS Inc., headquartered in Pyungtaek, Korea, is a leading supplier of OLED deposition and encapsulation mass
production systems. Founded in 1998, ANS delivers high quality OLED mass production machines by virtue of
its core competence in areas such as efficient deposition sources, reliable shadow mask alignment, and fully
automated software control systems. ANS is developing new deposition sources to achieve even better film
uniformity and greater material utilization for large-size glass substrates. The deposition direction can be in any
orientation in the process chamber, therefore resolving the glass and mask bending issue. For more information

About Vitex Systems
Vitex Systems, Inc., headquartered in San Jose, Calif., licenses a proprietary encapsulation solution, Barix™, as
well as deposition systems and next-generation flexible barrier substrates, that enable the cost-effective
production of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays that are lighter and thinner than any other
commercially available displays. Vitex's technology can also be used to address a wide array of photovoltaic and
optoelectronic applications. The company was incubated at Battelle, the world's largest independent private non-
profit research foundation, and was spun off as an independent company.
