Federal District Judge Finds Citron Electronics Co. Ltd. (Citron), Chinese DVD Products Manufacturer, Liable for Additional Damages for Breach of DVD6C License Agreement

Toshiba Corporation, on behalf of the DVD6C Licensing Group
(DVD6C) consisting of nine leading developers of DVD technology and
formats -- Hitachi, Ltd., Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.,
Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Sanyo
Electric Co., Ltd., Sharp Corporation, Toshiba Corporation, Victor
Company of Japan, Ltd. (JVC) and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Inc.
-- today announced that it has won a further legal victory against
former licensee Citron Electronics Co., Ltd., a supplier to
CyberHomeEntertainment, Inc. Judge Lawrence McKenna of the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York entered a
second judgment that Citron is liable to Toshiba for breach of
contract for more than US$26.1 million. As previously announced, Judge
McKenna entered a separate judgment in October of 2006 that the DVD6C
Patent License Agreement with Citron was lawfully terminated and that
Citron was liable for more than US$9.5 million. Citron's total
liability to Toshiba for breach of the DVD6C Patent License Agreement
thus exceeds US$35.7 million.

It is cautioned that the sale, offering for sale, use, importation
or other disposal of DVD products of Citron may constitute
infringement of patent rights in countries where essential patents of
DVD6C members have been issued or registered.

Toshiba will continue to diligently enforce Toshiba's patent
rights against any and all infringers.
