Growing potential of 700% in the wall mounts In the past,most of the people put their TVs (CRT) on cabinet or other existing furniture; therefore the mounts were sold at one to ten TV ratio. Today, Plasma/LCD screens are a showpiece in the home; screens are displayed like a picture on the wall. Because of the new screen sizes and the light weight customers are no longer restricted by old style furniture or cabinets and about 70% of new screens are mounted on the wall. Result,the potential of the mount sales is increasing by 700% and the product is becoming an essential add-on while selling a Plasma/LCD screen. 3

3 How to convince the consumer to buy our products in your stores The problem: Consumers are nervous about installing by themselves expensive Plasma/LCD screens, that they have purchased for their home or office.

A bracket that securely mounts to the wall. B. An adaptor that easy connects to the screen.

5 Reg.Des LCD mounts Up to 37 Exclusively designed,tools-free adjustment flexibility Advance auto technology and the patented Easy Tilt We have been looking for a no tools solution that would allow for the free movement in the search for the ultimate viewing angle. We tested countless types of friction pads from plastic to steel. None of them worked to our standards, the screen failed to remain in the same position after tilting and the screen would just lean down. One day one of our engineers asked a very simple question "Which material used in our daily life has a very high friction coefficient?" After a few minutes of silence he answered: "friction pads in the brakes of the car you are driving". We put them in our tilt mechanism and now you can tilt the screen at any angle and count on the brake pads holding the screen in the perfect viewing position. Barkan has a world patent on this technology. TOUCH & TILT CABLE MANAGEMENT QUICK CONNECT Patent Pend PCT/IL2005/ Tools free tilt adjustment, enabled by automotive friction break-pads.
