Virage Logic Corporation Joins Power.org Community; Provides Power Architecture(R) Customers Extensive Range of

PISCATAWAY, NJ, Jun 29 (MARKET WIRE) --
Power.org(TM), the organization that promotes and develops standards for
Power Architecture(R) technology, today announced that Virage Logic
Corporation (NASDAQ: VIRL), the semiconductor industry's trusted IP
partner, has joined Power.org as a participant member. Virage Logic
provides an extensive range of semiconductor IP that removes the
traditional bottleneck in processor design -- access to embedded memories
and silicon implementation -- speeding time-to-market and helping
minimize design costs.

"The strength of a processor is dependent on its peripherals and with
Virage Logic's production-proven, advanced interface IP solutions,
PowerPC-based designs can leverage the critical IP required for successful
SoC designs," said Power.org CTO, Kaveh Massoudian. "The company's
technology and expertise will provide a valuable asset to the Power
Architecture ecosystem, making Power Architecture technology available to
the mass market and to the mainstream fabless semiconductor market."

Recently, Virage Logic announced an agreement with IBM designating the
company as an IBM PowerPC Design Center, granting it the rights to license
and distribute IBM's PowerPC(R) processor and peripheral cores when
combined with Virage Logic's broad portfolio of semiconductor IP.

"Our participation in Power.org allows us to broaden the portfolio of
highly differentiated silicon-proven IP available to the Power.org
community," said Dr. Yankin Tanurhan, vice president and general manager,
non-volatile memory (NVM) solutions, Virage Logic. "We look forward to
working closely with members of the organization to drive innovation while
helping them achieve their cost, performance and time-to-market goals."
