CDC Software Names Key Senior Management Additions for Mergers & Acquisitions and Worldwide Channels; Former Executives from SSA Global Joining CDC Software as Senior Vice Presidents.

ATLANTA -- CDC Software, a wholly owned subsidiary of CDC Corporation (NASDAQ: CHINA) and a provider of enterprise software applications and services, announced today that it has further strengthened its senior management team with the addition of Sam Anidjar, senior vice president, mergers and acquisitions and Fred Dilkes, senior vice president, worldwide major accounts and channels. Both will report directly to Eric Musser, president, CDC Software.

"Sam and Fred are both proven performers in their respective areas of expertise and are strategic additions to our senior management team," said Mr. Musser. "We are actively positioning CDC Software for accelerated growth, both through organic expansion within our targeted vertical industries, and through strategic acquisitions. Sam and Fred will each play a critical role in achieving our objectives."

Mr. Anidjar comes to CDC Software from SSA Global where he most recently served as vice president of acquisitions. In this role he managed 11 acquisitions of both publicly and privately held companies, contributing significantly to the company's growth of more than 400 percent in four years. In his role as senior vice president, mergers and acquisitions, Mr. Anidjar will be responsible for driving all acquisitions on a global basis for CDC Software and will also assist with select opportunities driven by CDC Corporation and China.com.

Mr. Dilkes is an industry veteran with more than 20 years of sales and management experience. He most recently served as vice president of sales, southeast, for SSA Global where he consistently exceeded quotas in very competitive markets with complex sales cycles. In his role as senior vice president, worldwide major accounts and channels, Mr. Dilkes will be responsible for expanding the Company's global base of channel partners and leveraging the Franchise Partner Program to invest in selected partners in strategic geographies. He will also be responsible for expanding the Company's business, across all product lines, within selected major accounts.

"These strategic hires from SSA follow our recent hiring of Stephanie Kelly as our senior vice president responsible for global Human Resources," said Peter Yip, executive chairman and CEO of CDC Software. "With these three key additions to the management team, we are quickly adding the proven talent that will support Eric in his role as president of CDC Software. I am confident that we are creating the leadership team needed to successfully manage our accelerated growth and continue to move up from our ranking as the 18th largest enterprise and supply chain management application vendor. We are also better positioned for a possible spin-off or carve-out of CDC Software as a standalone company to unlock value for our shareholders."
