CryptoLogic delivers Super Hero excitement to the Internet
with X-Men, The Hulk, and more
Marvel Enterprises becomes newest addition to CryptoLogic’s elite network of relationships

September 12, 2005 (Toronto, ON) — CryptoLogic Inc., a leading software developer to the global Internet gaming market, announced that it will soon be rolling out new products based on an exclusive multi-year licensing agreement signed in late 2004, with Marvel Enterprises Inc., one of the world’s most prominent character-based entertainment companies. The new relationship, made through CryptoLogic’s wholly-owned subsidiary, WagerLogic Limited, makes CryptoLogic the sole developer of Marvel-branded casino slot games on the Internet. You have seen them in the comics and on the big screen, and now CryptoLogic is bringing your favorite Marvel Super Heroes for high-impact action on the Internet – for the first time.

“CryptoLogic’s new relationship with Marvel — home to some of the world’s legendary entertainment brands — will strengthen our competitive edge through new, exciting Super Hero-themed Internet casino games,” said Lewis Rose, CryptoLogic’s President and CEO. “By delivering big-name action like the X-Men and The Hulk to the Internet, we’re enhancing the entertainment factor of CryptoLogic games — and helping our customers appeal to an even wider player audience.”

In today’s competitive and increasingly sophisticated Internet casino market, players want more choice and more chances to win. With Marvel, CryptoLogic is delivering great brands, great games and great entertainment. Under the agreement, an initial six Marvel-themed, multi-currency jackpot video slot games are set for release this autumn. Internet casino players will be able to experience big-screen excitement with their favorite Marvel characters — and win cash prizes in US dollars, Euros and Pounds Sterling.

Characters including The Hulk, Daredevil, The X-Men, Blade and The Punisher will swing into action in five new 9-line progressive jackpot video slot games. The new games offer multi-stage, interactive bonus levels with three separate jackpots available to be won — the first multi-level jackpot games ever to be offered on the Internet. In addition, The Hulk will add his power to a new Hulk Fruit Machine — another in the series of British-style slot machines developed by CryptoLogic and favored by the strong UK player base of WagerLogic licensees.

As a pioneer and global leader in the estimated $12 billion online gaming industry, CryptoLogic continues to strengthen its position with a growing range of software products for the world’s major Internet casino and poker markets. The company is also expanding its system capacity to accommodate rapid growth and player demand, and continues to work with many of the world’s most trusted gaming brands.
