Competitive Technologies Urges Stockholders to Vote in Order to Attain Quorum for Annual Meeting of Stockholders.


FAIRFIELD, Conn. -- Competitive Technologies, Inc.-(AMEX: CTT), a full service technology transfer and licensing provider, today announced that it has adjourned its 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders that was scheduled for today because it could not be determined at the meeting that a quorum was attained. CTT's by-laws require that a quorum of a majority of the shares of stock outstanding and entitled to vote be present in order to conduct business. There was a motion to adjourn the Annual Meeting until February 2, 2007 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time at the American Stock Exchange, 86 Trinity Place, New York, NY. It is anticipated that the independent Inspectors of Election will have a report as to the whether a quorum was attained and whether the motion to adjourn was approved within the next few days. Once that report is received the Company will issue a further press release.

"We appreciate those stockholders who have submitted proxies in support of the re-election of the Company's Board of Directors and we urge all Competitive Technologies stockholders to vote their shares in support of the Company nominees as soon as possible," said D.J. Freed, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer. "We urge CTT stockholders who have not yet voted to do so immediately so that we can put this expensive and distracting proxy contest behind us and dedicate our full attention to managing your company."
