— Funds Will Be Used

for Continued Rapid Expansion Through Acquisitions—

SHANGHAI, China & LOS ANGELES–(EMWNews)–Ultizen Games Ltd., a game development and outsourcing company,

announced today that it has secured $6 million USD in a Series B funding

round led by Taiwan-based venture capital firm PAC-LINK, with

participation from Japan-based VC firm Japan Asia Investment Co. (JAIC)

and CyberAgent, a leading on-line advertising agency and media

representative company. The Series B funding will be used to support

company’s continued rapid growth through

acquisitions. Ultizen’s North American offices

are located in Los Angeles.

Ultizen closed a $1.5 million USD Series A round of financing from

Shanghai and Boston-based Dragonvest Partners in late June of 2007, and

grew from 70 to 350 employees within the company’s

first year of operation.

With the largest talent base in China, reliable security to protect

client intellectual property (IP), excellent quality control and an

outstanding record of on-time delivery, Ultizen provides the highest

quality game art development outsourcing services to North American,

European and Japanese clients ranging from “top

20” gaming and media companies to small and

mid-size studios.

Ultizen Games’ 350-person studio provides game

development services including game design, porting, programming and

art. A certified Microsoft XBOX Live Arcade game developer, the company

plans to launch its first title on the XBOX platform in the fall of 2008.

“China has become the biggest game

development and art outsourcing market in recent years and we believe

the market will continue to grow exponentially in the near future. With

the advanced technology and more than 350 talented developers, Ultizen

has the potential to become the market leader in the industry,”

said PAC-LINK General Partner Allen Hsu. “In

addition, the web-based casual game industry has shown tremendous

growth. As an early mover in this segment, we believe that Ultizen will

become a dominant player and, moreover, have great potential to expand

from a developer into an influential publishing and operating company in

this segment.”

Founded in January 2005 by gaming industry veterans Lan Haiwen and Wu

Jun, now Ultizen’s CEO and Vice President,

respectively, the company has achieved rapid success, and has grown to

be one of the top three independent game studios in China, both

organically and through the acquisition of Beijing-based Mo-Star

Limited, a well-established game content provider on China Mobile’s

game portal platform. The company maintains studios in Shanghai and

Beijing, China and opened an office in Los Angeles in the fall of 2007.

“Ultizen’s

leadership team, Lan Haiwen and Wu Jun, combines a deep knowledge of the

gaming industry and the Chinese game development market with a

sophisticated understanding of the needs of game development and media

companies around the globe,” said Dragonvest

Partners Co-Founder and Co-Managing General Partner Jesse Parker. “They

have done an outstanding job of attracting and retaining the top talent

needed to support rapid growth and address their clients skills and

resource requirements while maintaining a high quality standard.”

Ming Hsu, General Partner, PAC-LINK and Tetsuya Tsuda, CEO of Japan Asia

Investment (China) Co., Ltd. will join Dragonvest Partners’

Jesse Parker; Ultizen Vice President Wu Jun; and board chairman and

Ultizen CEO Lan Haiwen on the company’s Board

of Directors.

“Ultizen’s track

record of profitable growth is a validation of our capabilities and the

top- and bottom-line business benefit our clients derive from partnering

with us,” said Lan Haiwen. “The

addition of PAC-LINK, JAIC and Cyber Agent to our investment team

provides us with the resources to aggressively expand our leadership

position among China-based game development and outsourcing companies to

address the huge market opportunity the thriving global gaming industry

presents.”
