This release contains forward-looking statements, which address a
variety of subjects including, for example, the expected benefits of the
relationship between ModusLink and Macpower. The following important
factors and uncertainties, among others, could cause actual results to
differ materially from those described in these forward-looking
statements: While ModusLink is currently designated Macpower’s
sole supply chain services provider in Europe, Macpower could change
this designation in its discretionModusLink frequently sells to its
supply chain management clients, including the client referenced in this
press release, on a purchase order basis and therefore its sales are
subject to demand variability; ModusLink's success depends on its
ability to execute on its business strategy and the continued and
increased demand for and market acceptance of its solutions and
services; ModusLink may not be able to expand its operations in
accordance with its business strategy; ModusLink may experience
difficulties integrating technologies, operations and personnel in
accordance with its business strategy; ModusLink derives a significant
portion of its revenue from a small number of customers and the loss of
any of those customers would significantly damage its financial
condition and results of operations; increased competition and
technological changes in the markets in which ModusLink competes; and
risks associated with international operations. ModusLink represents a
significant percentage of CMGI's operations and the occurrence of any of
the foregoing factors may have an adverse effect on CMGI’s
results of operations and financial results. For a detailed discussion
of cautionary statements that may affect CMGI's future results of
operations and financial results, please refer to CMGI's filings with
