Cascade Microtech Introduces SELECTShip(TM) Logistics Program to U.S. Customers

  Cascade Microtech, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCD), a leading expert at enabling precision measurements of integrated circuits at the wafer level, today announced the launch of SELECTShip, a flat-rate program for logistics services for products shipped to Customers within the contiguous United States.

Cascade Microtech is now offering SELECTShip, a comprehensive logistics service based on a flat-rate at time of quote, eliminating the uncertainty of logistics costs. Cascade Microtech's SELECTShip program includes door-to-door transport service, import duty, taxes, customs clearance, and other fees. Cascade Microtech will act as Importer of Record on the Customer's behalf, and will monitor and track the shipment during transit. The SELECTShip team offers a single point of contact to track delivery or answer any questions regarding the shipment. Customers receive one single price at the time of quote, and one billing invoice, removing the inconvenience of processing and paying multiple invoices.

"We are pleased to be able to offer our Customers a choice that removes much of the complexity and streamlines the logistics process for them," said Paul O'Mara, Vice President, Sales and Support. "Customers who opt to use their own transportation services often experience challenges with delivery scheduling, tracking, hidden transportation costs, and even import red-tape. Our Customers have asked for our assistance in solving this logistics problem, and we are happy to be able to respond with a straightforward and simple solution to address their needs."

SELECTShip is currently available for shipments to U.S. Customers only. For information regarding other countries or for details on this program, please contact [e-mail].
