CDC Software Enlists CMT Latin America into Franchise Partner Program

Investments in Latin American distributor to fund market expansion and sales programs for CRM product lines

ATLANTA, 06/07/2006—CDC Software, a wholly owned subsidiary of CDC Corporation (NASDAQ: CHINA) and a provider of enterprise software applications, today announced that CMT Latin America has joined the company's Franchise Partner Program. The program, which includes $20 million designated for investment in channel partners, was recently launched by CDC Software to establish strategic relationships with franchise partners in selected geographies to accelerate mutual business expansion.

CMT Latin America has been a successful partner, representing CDC Software for eight years. As a distributor of the Pivotal CRM product line, CMT has signed on new customers in seven countries, including Monsanto Argentina, Corpbanca Chile, Canon Brazil and Prochemex of Mexico, as well as Syngenta and Telefonica Empresas, each operating throughout Latin America. CMT has more than 40 certified professionals operating from its regional development center in Rosario, Argentina, as well as its other offices in Buenos Aires, Argentina; Santiago, Chile; Sao Paulo, Brazil; and DF Mexico. CMT is a Gold Certified Partner of Microsoft Corporation.

Through the Franchise Partner Program, CDC Software is working with selected partners in high-growth geographies, including Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, India, China and Asia/Pacific. Providing direct cash investments, equity investments, lines of credit and combinations of these, CDC Software is investing up to $20 million in selected distribution partners.

In the case of CMT Latin America, CDC Software will acquire a 10 percent equity stake in the company, with an option to acquire an additional 9.9 percent. CMT will also receive funding in an undisclosed amount to support its expanded marketing and sales activities in Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Mexico. In addition to selling the Pivotal CRM products in Latin America, CMT will begin selling CDC Software's recently acquired c360 add-on products for Microsoft Dynamics CRM.

"Selling and supporting the Pivotal CRM applications, we have established a very strong partnership with CDC Software," said Daniel Altomonte, president of CMT Latin America. "We are very proud to have earned this position in the Franchise Partner Program. Through our expertise and focus in CRM applications, the expanded solution set including Pivotal CRM and c360, and the substantial financial backing of CDC Software, we will move quickly to grow our business and leadership position in Latin America."

"By putting our significant cash reserves to work, we are rapidly strengthening our presence in key geographies targeted for growth," said Oscar Pierre, senior vice president of Latin America for CDC Software. "Many enterprise software companies struggle to truly capture mindshare and commitments as they leverage third-party resellers and distributors to expand globally. We believe our unique approach, based on mutual commitment, will ensure success for CDC Software and our franchise partners in our strategic geographies."

CDC Software continues to seek, and is in negotiation with, additional resellers and distributors for its Franchise Partner Program around the world.
