TASER International Announces Two Significant Orders
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania State Police and Hawaii County Police Department
SCOTTSDALE, AZ, April 24, 2007 - TASER International, Inc. (NASDAQ: TASR) a market
leader in advanced electronic control devices today announced two orders. The first order from
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for 3,000 TASER® X26 Electronic Control Devices (ECDs)
and related accessories for delivery to the Pennsylvania State Police. The second order from
Hawaii County Police Department on the big island of Hawaii for 450 TASER® X26 ECDs and
related accessories.
“We plan to issue the TASER X26 to patrol members and supervisors,” said Sgt. David E.
Pallone of the Pennsylvania State Police Bureau of Research and Development. “We had 35
successful deployments in the field since February 2006. By and large the agency is confident in
the effectiveness of the TASER X26 and the rank and file is very enthusiastic and anxious to
deploy another use of force option. The troopers will deploy a TASER X26 upon consideration
of the totality of the circumstance when the use of force is necessary and authorized to control a
given situation. This deployment is in the best interest of officer and public safety,” concluded
Sgt Pallone. The Pennsylvania State Police, with over 4,200 sworn Troopers, is over 100 years
old and serves as the primary law enforcement agency for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
“We applaud the Pennsylvania State Police and specifically their Bureau of Research and
Development for their due diligence and extensive research put forth on our TASER
technology,” said Tom Smith, Chairman and Co-Founder of TASER International.
“We are honored by the Hawaii County Police Department’s decision to go to full deployment
with our TASER technology based on their own research as well as a review of other police
departments’ data showing that TASER devices reduce injuries and protect lives,” concluded
Smith.
These orders were originally planned to ship during the first quarter of 2007, but were delayed.
These orders together totaled 3,450 TASER® X26 Electronic Control Devices (ECDs) with
related accessories and are expected to ship in the second quarter of 2007.
