Aria International Incorporated Purchases Multi-Sensor Camera Systems for Royal Thai Army Surveillance Program From Axsys Technologies Inc.

ARLINGTON, Va.--(Business Wire)--
Aria International Holdings, Inc., through its wholly-owned subsidiary Aria
International Incorporated, a Nevada corporation ("Aria International") (OTC
BB:ARAH), which is focused on providing specialized surveillance and
communications solutions to a global customer base is pleased to announce today
that it has purchased advanced digital stabilized multi-sensor camera systems
from Axsys Technologies Inc. Axsys Technologies Inc. ("Axsys") (NASDAQ:AXYS), is
a leading designer and manufacturer of precision surveillance cameras and
optical solutions for defense, aerospace, homeland security and high-performance
commercial applications.

Aria purchased five (5) V14 MSIIfully-digital, four-axis stabilized,
multi-sensor cameras that provide exceptional aerial surveillance and detection
capabilities for law enforcement, military and public utilities applications.
The systems purchased by Aria combine the latest in IR and high-definition EO
sensor technology. The V14 MSII's EO and IR sensor technology, superior
stabilization, unmatched continuous zoom capabilities and multiple payload
options, delivers high-performance, flawlessly precise images ideal for the Aria
surveillance solution to the Royal Thai Army (RTA).

The RTA selected Aria International Incorporated and Axsys after a number of
real-time flight demonstrations were conducted in December 2008 in the United
States. Aria International Incorporated previously announced the RTA contract on
April 30, 2009. Under this contract, Aria International is responsible for
integrating all system components and delivering a complete turn-key solution,
conducting initial operations and continuing maintenance tasks as well as
providing the training to the RTA personnel on the use of the equipment.

The RTA surveillance and communications solution consists of a manned airship
equipped with special state-of-the-art imaging and communications systems and
upgrades to existing command and control facilities to allow for the receipt of
real-time surveillance data. The airship will be accompanied with a
state-of-the-art Mobile Command and Control Vehicle. Aria International will
train Royal Thai Army personnel to pilot and effectively utilize and maintain
the deployed surveillance and communications systems. In addition to the Axsys
cameras on the airship, Aria International will also install and integrate the
Axsys V14 MSII high-definition day/night camera systems on select Royal Thai
Army helicopters. President of Aria International, Mr. Mike "Bing" Crosby,
stated: "the employment of the Axsys stabilized multi-sensor cameras in a manned
airship and in RTA helicopters provides the Royal Thai Army another system with
the necessary capabilities it requires to counter the increased insurgent
activity and threats of crime, drug trafficking and terrorism."

"Axsys cameras are known for their superior imaging capabilities and proven
performance in the field," stated Aled Miles, Vice President and General Manager
of Axsys' Stabilized Camera Systems Group. "Our V14 MSII systems are used by a
growing number of law enforcement and government agencies to assist in aerial
surveillance we are extremely gratified that Aria and the Kingdom of Thailand
selected the MSII for the surveillance operations in Thailand."
