</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Cognos continues its ongoing commitment to its PowerHouse customers with the upcoming release of PowerHouse 4GL and PowerHouse Web for Linux. This is a direct port of the industry-leading application development tool that is so successful on other UNIX platforms as well as MPE/iX, OpenVMS, and Windows.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The version is 8.43E and is consistent with the 8.43E version for UNIX released in 2007. The new release is also compatible with Axiant 3.4E for thin-client applications.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The Linux version is built on Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 and also tested on SUSE Linux Enterprise 10. It supports Oracle 10g, DB2, Sybase, Eloquence, and DataDirect ODBC to Microsoft SQL Server. Indexed file support is provided by DISAM.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">PowerHouse 4GL for Linux gives migrating customers yet another option. They can now move forward using an open-source computing platform while retaining the productivity and reliability of PowerHouse.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">PowerHouse 4GL and PowerHouse Web for Linux will come in its own installation package.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">User-based pricing for PowerHouse 4GL and PowerHouse Web for Linux is the same as for other UNIX versions. Please contact your Cognos Account Representative for availability.</FONT></P>
