SafeView Receives B Round Funding.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- SafeView, Inc., a leading provider of personnel screening technology, announced today that it has secured $16 million in Series B financing from a group of investors led by Paladin Capital Group. SafeView has breakthrough technology that solves the growing threat presented by non-conventional weapons and contraband that are undetectable by current metal detection systems, such as plastic guns, ceramic knives, explosives strapped to the body, and other unconventional contraband. Using breakthrough millimeter wave technology developed by the renowned Battelle Labs, Safeview can detect and reveal the presence of such dangerous material to security personnel in real time and in a non-intrusive basis.

Paladin Capital Group, through its Homeland Security Fund, specializes in homeland security and anti-terrorism technologies. The firm's distinguished management includes former directors of the CIA and NSA and a former deputy director of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). Joining Paladin as new investors in this round are Novak Biddle Venture Partners, a leading early stage venture firm located in Washington D.C., and Battelle Ventures. Existing Series A investors, Draper Fisher Jurvetson and DFJ ePlanet Ventures, which co-led the Series A round, also participated along with Stanford University and InVision Technologies. InVision's participation in the round is part of the on-going strategic relationship between SafeView and InVision, with InVision holding exclusive system distribution rights for the aviation security market.

As part of the Series B financing, Niloo Howe, Principal at Paladin Capital Group and Jack Biddle, General Partner and co-founder of Novak Biddle, will join the company's Board of Directors. The funds will be used to begin production and sales of SafeView's unique portal system.

"We are greatly pleased with the caliber of our investment partners," stated Rick Rowe, President and CEO of SafeView. "We are particularly excited about having Paladin and Novak Biddle, two highly respected Washington, D.C. based investment groups who are considered leaders in funding new companies in the global Homeland Security market. We appreciate their confidence in our system and its unique technology as part of the solution making the world a safer place."

"What we found attractive is that this technology has the potential to provide enhanced security in any location where large numbers of people gather," stated Niloo Howe, Principal at Paladin. "The company's early market tests have shown that the system provides the capability to effectively screen people in a non-intrusive way as they enter into buildings, be they government or commercial."

SafeView holds an exclusive license to commercialize this patented and unique technology from Battelle, which manages the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) for the Department of Energy. The system is derived from a three-dimensional holographic imagery technology program that was established at PNNL, and was eventually funded by the FAA as a key emerging technology for screening people passing through airports. SafeView was founded by Mike Lyons and renowned inventor Mir Imran in 2002 and was incubated at Imran's InCube facility in Menlo Park.
