value. Thus, within a short time frame, a reliable and transparent
information basis has been created for key software vendors such as Oracle,
Microsoft, IBM and Adobe for TUI's approximately 3,500 physical and virtual
servers and 600 clients.

Commerzbank AG took third place with their project "Colima / SAM
Microsoft". The company's SAM cycle was defined in terms of processes and
organizational structures, and has already been operatively established for
the software manufacturer Microsoft. As a central license management tool,
SmartTrack by Aspera was implemented and successfully connected to the
company's existing asset management systems.

Olaf Diehl, Managing Director of Aspera GmbH, congratulates the winners on
their well-deserved awards: "BWI, TUI and Commerzbank have demonstrated
Best in Class license management. We are pleased that our customers have
received this recognition for their excellent work, and that we were
allowed to support them even with difficult requirements in terms of
complexity and security."

Aspera is thankful for their customers' continued confidence and
cooperation in successful software license management.
