"Freemium" is an amalgamation of the words "Free" and "Premium."
"SaaS" is an acronym meaning "Software as a Service."

With a diverse and flexible services portfolio, we believe that we are a pioneer in adopting the innovative Freemium-SaaS business model to offer mobile security and productivity services. We provide a wide range of free services to address fundamental user needs, such as malware scanning, Internet firewall, performance optimization, data back-up and restoration, and spam filters, in order to build a large user base while increasing user loyalty. We also provide a selection of premium services to generate revenues from our large user base. These services include virus library updates, account safety, anti-theft, and communication privacy protection and are bundled with our free offerings for users who elect to pay for additional protection and enhanced productivity. Some of our products such as Family Guardian and Enterprise Shield are premium only. Moreover, we deliver our service offerings over the mobile Internet as a subscription service on demand using our SaaS model. We offer flexible ala carte service subscription options available in monthly, three-month, six-month, and twelve-month packages. We believe our Freemium-SaaS business model has contributed significantly to our success to date by providing users with on-demand personalized selection of products and services portfolio.

NQ Mobile was founded in 2005, in response to the emergent threat of the first mobile virus targeting smartphones. The company was incorporated in 2005 as well. NQ Mobile therefore has over six years of technology development in the mobile anti-virus space.

We believe the following strengths enable us to proactively identify the trends of the mobile industry and develop innovative services to address user needs, thus making us a pioneer of the fast-growing mobile security, privacy and productivity services industry:

• leading position in the mobile security, privacy and productivity services market with a large and fast-growing global user base,
• comprehensive and flexible Freemium subscription-based service offering,
• sophisticated and proprietary business and operation support systems,
• proprietary technology and strong research and development capabilities,
• diversified user acquisition and payment channels based on strong relationships with key players in the mobile ecosystem, and
• global management team with strong industry track record.

We believe that we have a first mover advantage in mobile anti-virus and security, having launched this business in 2005, when the founders recognized quite early that future mobile devices and smartphones would potentially be subject to many of the same threats plaguing PCs. However we do now face numerous late-entry competitors, including newly-created mobile anti-virus solutions offered by traditional computer security companies, and a handful of startups focusing on mobile anti-virus.

NQ Mobile uses a freemium model, by which the basic anti-virus and security suite is offered to users at no charge, but additional services are also offered, for which many customers are willing to pay. Some of our products such as Family Guardian and Enterprise Shield are premium only.

NQ Mobile products are available for users in more 150 countries globally. Our largest subscription base remains in China, and we have selected the US, Latin America and Europe as targets for expansion.

100% of the technology and IP used by NQ Mobile was developed in house and is owned by the company itself. Now we have over 30 proprietary core technologies and mobile security patents. We have the world's largest data-base of mobile viruses and malware information, which endows us with superior capabilities to detect and resolve mobile threats. We have significant in-house knowledge and capability in relation to resolving mobile threats.
