We expect a quick return on our PageRecall investment because we will now receive compensation for our distributed materials."

PageRecall gives Caldera an easy-to-use solution for securely sharing valuable education content with partners and customers without surrendering the rights to control how this information is accessed and used after it has been distributed.

Unlike other approaches to content security, Authentica's software allows Caldera to:
-- recall or expire information at any time;

-- establish whether recipients have the right to share, print, or


copy information;

-- track the activity of information, including when and how often it is accessed and printed; and

-- change access or usage policies regardless of where copies of the information are located.

Caldera Education Services provides classroom instruction, access to on-line learning or other self-paced courseware designed to meet the demands of Linux and UNIX IT professionals. Caldera OpenLearning Courseware with PageRecall features will be available for purchase Summer 2002. Details will be available soon at http://www.caldera.com/education.
