* Award Combines Mobile Cargo and Aviation Security Systems for Comprehensive
Security Solution

HAWTHORNE, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
OSI Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSIS), a vertically-integrated provider of
specialized electronic products for critical applications, announced that its
Security division, Rapiscan Systems, has been awarded an approximate $10 million
contract to provide a combination of its advanced cargo, baggage and aviation
security scanning equipment to support the work of Abu Dhabi customs. This
latest contract win follows a previously disclosed order from Abu Dhabi customs
for Rapiscan Systems technology.

Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), is one of the world`s
most important commercial hubs. Multiple Rapiscan scanning systems are to be
deployed across customs centers in Abu Dhabi, including airports at Al Ain and
Abu Dhabi, a seaport at Mussafah, major post offices, and a number of border
customs centers. The systems are expected to be used to help Abu Dhabi customs
detect concealed potential security threats, contraband and smuggled items and
to help enforce customs regulations.

The contract calls for Rapiscan Systems to provide an integrated customs
screening solution that leverages Rapiscan`s broad product range and
high-performance transmission X-ray technology. Rapiscan`s proprietary
transmission X-ray technologies are capable of detecting shielded threats in
densely packed cargo containers or baggage while offering operators unsurpassed
image quality for rapid detection of potential threats. This latest contract
will provide advanced and flexible screening systems to meet Abu Dhabi`s mobile
inspection, air cargo screening and baggage scanning requirements, all supported
by Rapiscan`s global service organization.

Mr. Mohammad Bin Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Chairman of the Finance Department
at Abu Dhabi customs, commented: "Currently, we live in an age of growing global
commerce and increasingly complex and demanding security and customs enforcement
requirements. We selected Rapiscan Systems as our partner because we want to use
the latest technologies and we need a solution provider that can offer a
comprehensive approach to all our screening requirements." He continued, "It is
our vision to be the leader in world class customs operations that protect our
citizens and sustain prosperity for Abu Dhabi."

Rapiscan Systems President, Ajay Mehra, commented, "This contract is an
important milestone for Rapiscan as it combines multiple screening systems for
cargo, mobile inspection and aviation security that offer industry leading image
quality and throughput, while maintaining the comprehensive threat detection
that our product line is known for." Mr. Mehra continued, "This award also
demonstrates why more and more customers are turning to Rapiscan with our
comprehensive product line, our innovative technology, our extensive service
infrastructure and our focus on providing solutions tailored to customer
requirements."

Rapiscan`s contract with Abu Dhabi customs follows a number of recent global
contract awards for comprehensive security solutions, including orders with the
U.S. Government, the European Union and UK customs.
