Transmeta Corporation Confirms First LongRun2 Licensee Has Achieved Volume Production

Transmeta Expects Production Royalty Revenue in Q1 2008

SANTA CLARA, CA. - February 6, 2008 - Transmeta Corporation today confirmed that its first licensee began its production ramp of the first commercial product licensed to use Transmeta's LongRun2 technologies and has achieved volume production levels.  As a result, Transmeta expects to recognize approximately $215,000 in royalty revenue in the first quarter of 2008 for products using Transmeta's LongRun2 technologies that were sold by its licensee during the fourth quarter of 2007.  This compares with sample production royalty revenues of approximately $1,000 and $2,000 that the Company recognized from its first licensee in the third and fourth quarters of 2007, respectively.    

"We are very pleased that the first commercial product licensed to use our LongRun2 technologies is now in volume production," said Les Crudele, president and chief executive officer of Transmeta. "This is an important milestone and highlights the long-term opportunity of our IP licensing business."
