PARIS & MELBOURNE, Fla. -- July 23, 2012

Alcatel-Lucent (Euronext Paris and NYSE: ALU), and AuthenTec (NASDAQ:AUTH) are
jointly supporting Portugal Telecom (PT) in the launch of ‘Meo Go!’. The new
Meo Go! service enables subscribers of Portugal Telecom - the largest
communications service provider in Portugal - to use their smartphones and
tablets to access content that was previously confined to their TVs and PCs,
including 60 live TV channels and video-on-demand.

The Meo Go! service is available to subscribers using Android, Apple iOS and
Windows-based smartphones and other mobile devices, and includes features to
ensure secure delivery and smooth playback of a variety of different video
content formats. Subscribers can access programming from a wide range of
international channels such as AXN, Sony Entertainment Television, FOX, Syfy
Universal, MTV, Disney Channel, National Geographic Channel, Eurosport and
several European football club channels such as Benfica TV, Chelsea TV,
Manchester United TV, Barça TV, Real Madrid TV and Inter channel.

Alfredo Baptista, Portugal Telecom CTO, said: “Delivering live and
video-on-demand content directly to mobile users just like on a TV was a
daunting technical challenge, but thanks to strong support from Alcatel-Lucent
and AuthenTec we were able to launch our new Meo Go! service on budget and
ahead of schedule. Meo Go! significantly expands the number of subscribers we
can reach.”

Nakhle Matta, CSO, Alcatel-Lucent Portugal, said: “Being one of the world’s
leading Internet Protocol TV (IPTV) and multimedia services integrators with
more than 60 successful IPTV projects around the world, we are uniquely
positioned to extend Portugal Telecom’s IPTV offering to smartphones and
tablets. This means that Portugal Telecom will be able to push its video
content to millions of additional devices across the country, addressing its
customers’ appetite for video services at home and on-the-go. AuthenTec proved
to be an ideal collaborator. With their Digital Rights Management (DRM)
solution and strong technical support, we are able to protect and deliver
video content securely.”

Simon Blake-Wilson, Vice President of AuthenTec Embedded Security Solutions,
said: “Our collaboration with Alcatel-Lucent and Portugal Telecom has resulted
in a unique, multi-device programming offering that frees the mobile user from
their PC or TV. There is growing demand by content providers to securely
deliver their programming to mobile devices. Through our versatile DRM
solution, which is now deployed in many millions of mobile phones and tablets,
we were able to develop a robust and widely compatible security offering that
makes the viewing experience seamless while keeping high-value program content
very secure.”
