Technology, Announces First Chinese License Agreement with DVN
Technology Limited

The Agreement Enables DVN to Deploy Digital Cable Set-Tops Using the
Motorola Conditional Access Technology

BEIJING, Nov. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Motorola, Inc. (NYSE:MOT)
today announced the signing of a MediaCipher(R) license agreement with
DVN Technology Limited, an affiliate of DVN (Holdings) Limited ("DVN",
HKSE stock code: 0500), China's leading technology services provider
of state-of-the-art digital TV broadcast platforms. The agreement
will allow DVN to expand its customer base by creating new
opportunities with network operators that support the Motorola
MediaCipher conditional access technology.

By licensing its MediaCipher technology to DVN, Motorola is providing
a new opportunity for network operators to deploy advanced digital
set-tops with a secure conditional access system in China -- using
either an embedded or the SmartCard version of the MediaCipher
technology. This greater choice in set-top selection will expand
opportunities available for consumers to experience digital video in
their homes. Currently deployed in more than two thousand headends
worldwide, Motorola's MediaCipher technology is one of the industry's
most robust and secure conditional access technologies.
