Rockwell Collins acquires Anzus, Inc.

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (September 25, 2006) - Rockwell Collins, Inc. (NYSE: COL), a global leader in aviation electronics and communications, has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Anzus, Inc., a privately owned developer of software that enables high-speed tactical data link processing and sensor correlation for the U.S. Department of Defense as well as foreign governments.

“Anzus is an innovative company that will enhance Rockwell Collins’ Tactical Data Link Integration solutions, providing software applications that will greatly augment our Network-Centric Operations capabilities,” said Rockwell Collins Chairman, President and CEO Clay Jones.

Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Rockwell Collins is acquiring all outstanding shares of Anzus in a cash transaction. Approximately 50 Anzus employees will join Rockwell Collins.

Both companies have unique strengths, but we share a common approach to building trust and developing solutions that provide network-centric interoperability for our clients.”
