COLOR KINETICS EXTENDS WHITE LIGHT MARKET REACH

Color Kinetics Incorporated (NASDAQ: CLRK), a leading innovator of LED lighting systems and technologies, will further extend its reach in the white light market with new innovations set to debut at Light the world's largest lighting + Building, tradeshow, in, Frankfurt, Germany, April 23 - 27 Among the new offerings the EssentialWhite series is? A cost-effective product line designed to deliver the essential advantages of LED sources for common applications that don't require full intelligence. They apply Color Kinetics'proven expertise in LED technology, efficient LED drivers, mechanical and thermal engineering, optics and binning management entry-level LED lighting solutions that providing meet specifier-grade standards. We believe " There's substantial demand for white LED lighting systems that may not offer advanced control, but which otherwise meet customers'essential needs for performance, efficiency and, reduced maintenance in certain applications, said Bill Sims, President and CEO, Color Kinetics. "With the EssentialWhite series, we intend to satisfy this demand with familiar form factors and power requirements that easily conform to existing lighting environments. While we view the future of lighting as largely intelligent, EssentialWhite delivers the primary advantages of LED sources today. to their incandescent or" Compared halogen counterparts, EssentialWhite systems boast energy efficiency, long source life, durability and, lack of radiated heat and UV em Ission. They are therefore well suited for areas where conventional light sources are impractical, such as tight or heat-sensitive spaces, in harsh or vibration-prone environments, and where frequent maintenance and lamp replacement are undesirable. They are available in a range of fixed color temperatures to suit varying environments, such as cool sources to accent Gallery exhibits or warm sources to light intimate restaurants. The first EssentialWhite systems are designed to suit prevalent architectural, hospitality and, retail applications, including cove and accent lighting, displays and exhibits, tracks, rails, cables and pendants. They include:

EW Cove - A dimmable, 12 "or 6" linear for common, medium-luminance alcove applications. system

EW MR - A compact lamp designed to retrofit into most standard MR16 fixtures and sockets. Color Kinetics will also debut a prototype of its forthcoming recessed downlight for general illumination comprising a, replaceable ballast, interchangeable light module and multiple control options. It is designed to offer the output of a conventional fixture in a significantly 6 "smaller aperture area, minimizing visual intrusion to the ceiling plane and reducing the required cavity height. With launch of EssentialWhite" the and our fast-approaching move into general illumination, the Color Kinetics platform encompasses an ever-growing range of lighting needs ambient to accent decorative from, to functional, and intelligent to simplifie D, "said Sims." As adoption of LED lighting continues to rise, we believe this platform uniquely positions us to drive the technology from niche to mainstream uses. Kinetics will also showcase "Color a range of its newly launched IntelliWhite systems and popular RGB systems?
