VeriTainer Receives Its 4th Patent from U.S. Patent Office

U.S. Patent No. 7,612,338 Covers Container Identification Method In Radiation
Scanning

Silicon Valley based VeriTainer Corporation, the world leader in crane-
mounted maritime container radiation scanning, has received its fourth patent
on its crane-mounted scanning product, the VeriSpreader(R) System. The ‘338
patent utilizes the twist lock signal from the real-time container monitoring
system of the crane to distinguish which container is being scanned at what
time and associate radiation data to a particular container.

VeriTainer is the only company in the world that has run comprehensive
tests in the field, with over 15 months of testing in two highly successful
trials at the Port of Oakland.

"The ‘338 patent is a very significant piece of intellectual property for
VeriTainer," said John I. Alioto, CEO of VeriTainer Corporation. "In addition
to demonstrating unparalleled robustness, our engineers implemented key
operational techniques for real time data monitoring in the Oakland trials. The
‘338 patent is the first in a series of patents that will come out of the 2005
and 2007 Oakland trials."

The ‘338 patent is the fourth to issue in the United States covering
VeriTainer’s innovative crane-mounted scanning system. These patents have been
filed in most jurisdictions around the world and cover the world’s top 50
container ports. These patents give VeriTainer the fundamental crane-mounted
scanning methods and apparatuses in key international jurisdictions.

"It would be very challenging to come up with a real-time method for
effectively separating the scans and matching them to a container without
utilizing the twist lock signal," said Matthew Alioto, VP of Engineering and
co-inventor of the ‘338 patent. "The technical team at VeriTainer continues to
innovate at a brisk pace while patenting after our engineers. I’m very pleased
with both the issuance of the ‘338 and what we have in the pipeline on the
Intellectual Property side."
