Buffalo Grove, IL – November 3, 2008 – Computer Aided Technology, Inc., www.cati.com, (CATI) today announced it has
acquired the SolidWorks business of reseller QTE Manufacturing Solutions. QTE will concentrate its resources and expertise

CAE side. The company’s St. Louis and Kansas City, Missouri offices will remain open with several key QTE employees joining
the CATI team. The mutual agreement between CATI and QTE will offer the engineering and manufacturing companies in
the Midwest unmatched resources and capabilities.

QTE and CATI share a similar history and values. Both companies have built a dedicated customer following, QTE in Missouri,
Southern Illinois, and Eastern Kansas; CATI in Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Kentucky. Both companies have built a culture
around making customers successful in improving their product development and design processes.

“CATI is looking forward to working with the SolidWorks and manufacturing community in Missouri and Kansas. QTE has a

have to offer for clients that need focused attention in areas such as PDM, Simulation, Technical Publications, and Design
Automation will now be available to this community. We are excited to begin this new venture,” said Rich Werneth,
