Technologies" or the "Company") between March 16, 2000 and December 6, 2000,

The Court has granted the Executive Committee until October 17, 2003, in

at (212) 545-4600 or (800) 575-0735 immediately.
The complaint alleges violations of the federal securities laws. On or
about March 16, 2000, PSI Technologies commenced an initial public offering of
3,600,000 of its American Depositary Shares ("Shares") at an offering price of
$14 per share (the "PSI Technologies IPO"). In connection therewith, PSI
Technologies filed with the SEC a registration statement, which incorporated a
prospectus (the "Prospectus"). The complaint further alleges that the
Prospectus was materially false and misleading because it failed to disclose,
among other things, that: (i) the Underwriter Defendants had solicited and
received excessive and undisclosed commissions from certain investors in
exchange for which the Underwriter Defendants allocated to those investors
material portions of the PSI Technologies shares issued in connection with the
PSI Technologies IPO; and (ii) the Underwriter Defendants had entered into
agreements with customers whereby the Underwriter Defendants agreed to sell
PSI Technologies shares to those customers in the PSI Technologies IPO in
exchange for which the customers agreed to purchase additional PSI
Technologies shares in the aftermarket with the intention to artificially
increase the price of the stock. In addition, the complaint alleges that
certain of the Underwriter Defendants improperly utilized their analysts, who
were compromised by undisclosed conflicts of interest, to artificially inflate
or maintain the price of PSI Technologies Shares.
If you bought the Shares of PSI Technologies.com between March 16, 2000
and December 6, 2000, inclusive, and are willing to represent a class of
similarly situated investors, please contact Gustavo Bruckner, Esq. or Derek
