Lo-Q PLC12 February 2008 Lo-Q plc ("Lo-Q" or the "Company") LO-Q wins first European theme park installation of its VQ2020 queue managementsystem Lo-Q plc today announces it has reached agreement with Lego Windsor Park Ltd forthe use of its VQ2020 queue management system. The two year extendable agreementprovides for the operation of the system from March 15th this year. The LEGOLAND park is part of the Merlin group, which is a major global player in the theme park market. Lo-Q's Text-Q product is already in use at the LondonDungeon and other Merlin venues. VQ2020 is Lo-Q's flagship product and was introduced last year to capitalise onLo-Q's extensive operational experience and in-house system developmentcapabilities. Park visitors who use the system employ a proprietary, hand held,wireless unit, the Q-bot, to make reservations for their favourite rides fromanywhere in the park. The true virtual queuing means employed in VQ2020 meansthat all visitors wait the same time for the ride so the Q-bot system is fair to all. Vicky Brown, General Manager of LEGOLAND said: "Our new system allows our parkvisitors to avoid physically waiting in the queue line for our major rides. Ourpark is aimed at the under 12 age group, and they will especially enjoy havingthe Q-bot wait in the queue for them. The Q-bot is a key part of our objectiveof giving our visitors an even more enjoyable experience. Lo-Q's Managing Director, Leonard Sim, said: "It is really exciting for us tohave one of our systems operating in the UK, and we are particularly pleased towork with LEGOLAND. We expect the system to be well received by visitors to thepark, and look forward to it contributing to our revenues for the year ending 31 December 2008.
