Draper Fisher Jurvetson and Cisco Announce Singapore Entrants to Global

Business Plan Competition
Companies Partner to Encourage Entrepreneurship; Winner to Receive US$250,000
Investment

SINGAPORE, June 17, 2009 – Leading early-stage venture capital firm Draper
Fisher Jurvetson (DFJ) and Cisco today announced the Singapore entrants to a global
business plan competition for students aimed at fostering innovation and
entrepreneurship. The competition will rely on Cisco TelePresence™, which enables
collaboration through a live, face-to-face network communications experience, to allow
finalists from around the world to present their business plans in real time to a joint panel
of DFJ and Cisco executives based in San Jose.

This is the first time the competition is aimed at a global market, a milestone
made possible by both DFJ’s Global Network and Cisco TelePresence. Cisco
TelePresence helps break down the barriers of distance by creating a collaborative
experience where participants feel as though they are sitting in the same room even
though they may be located thousands of miles apart.

The competition seeks to find new technology-oriented ideas from aspiring

college and university student entrepreneurs around the world. Sixteen finalists will be
announced on June 19, 2009. The winner, who will be announced on June 30, 2009, will
receive a minimum of US$250,000 seed money. The winner will also receive
professional feedback and mentorship from both DFJ and Cisco.

The Singapore business plans selected for submission include a mobile gaming
application; a Web 2.0-based photo-touching and photo-styling service; a baby milk
bottle that changes color according to temperature; and an automatic chapati machine.
They will compete with business plans from 16 other countries around the world
including China, India and Vietnam.

“For the past four years, DFJ has held only regional competitions. We are
excited to partner with Cisco and expand this opportunity globally to include regions
covered by our DFJ Global Network,” said Tim Draper, managing director, DFJ. “Our
16 Global Network Partners are ideally positioned to host this type of competition, given
our Network’s unparalleled extensive reach to countries across four continents. We
believe that technology has no borders and that there are talented entrepreneurs
everywhere who want to change the world, and we look forward to partnering with
them.”

“Cisco is proud to partner with DFJ and to continue our long-standing strategy of
investing globally in the innovation economy,” said Hilton Romanski, vice president of
corporate development at Cisco. “This is a unique and important competition, and one
that underscores our commitment to support great ideas despite difficult markets and
challenging fundraising conditions. Cisco’s own roots, as a start-up in the early 1980s,
help us appreciate that great companies are often founded in tough times. Cisco
continues to believe in the potential and power of great ideas and entrepreneurs, and we
look forward to utilizing Cisco TelePresence, our innovative and market-leading
collaboration technology solution, to make this global competition possible.”

Overall, Cisco has approximately US$1.3 billion in venture capital investments

under management and has been an early and active investor in major markets such as the
U.S., China, India, Israel, Russia and Europe. Cisco is a strategic investor in start-ups
and venture funds around the world and focuses on partnering with young, innovative
companies.

Competition finalists will be selected on various criteria including the quality of

the management team, technical innovation, addressable market size, competitive
positioning, barriers, capital efficiency and financial projections. Prior business plan
competitions have produced great successes, including DFJ-backed winners DirectHit,
which was acquired by AskJeeves in 2000 for US$532 million, and Webline
Communications, acquired by Cisco for US$325 million in 1999.
