Huge PalmSource Settlement Funds Hop-on's New Division

IRVINE, Calif., March 13 PRNewswire-FirstCall — Hop-on, Inc. (Pink Sheets: HPNN) announced today Access Systems America, Inc. (ASA, formerly known as PalmSource, Inc.) "Requested to Withdraw Opposition" from the USPTO with prejudice. The Opposition withdrawal and financial settlement is a major victory for Hop-on.

The settlement addressed Hop-on's sole right to mobile and wireless use of the GRAFFITI name. Peter Michaels, President and CEO of Hop-on, Inc. stated, "This huge financial settlement will be used to continue to protect Hop-on's Intellectual Property rights. We took down a giant corporation. It's nice to be paid for hard work! With this new division we will continue to file patents and trademarks for our gaming applications and services here in the US and abroad."

Michaels further stated, "With the financial settlement of this case, we now have the resources to go after other companies who are infringing our Design and Utility Patents. I am extremely confident that we will be signing multiple license agreements for our technology, and litigating others who do not pay our company for use of our Intellectual Property rights. It is estimated that there are over 50 companies who are infringing our patents. This is a great opportunity for our shareholders to reap the benefits of license agreements and other potential victories in court! To take advantage Hop-on has hired a full time attorney to protect our Intellectual Property rights."
