Lockheed Martin Account at CirTran Continues to Grow with Third 2005 Order for Token-Ring Network Adapters

SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 29, 2005--CirTran Corp. (OTCBB: CIRT) said today that its account with Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE: LMT) has continued to grow, with the third order received this year from the Fortune 50(R) company now in hand.

CirTran, an international full-service contract manufacturer of IT, consumer and consumer electronics products, said the order was received by its Racore Technology subsidiary from Lockheed Martin TSS of Herndon, Va., for M8195 fiber optic PCI 16/4 token-ring network adapters.

Designed and built by Racore, the M8195 uses fifth-generation IBM(R) token-ring technology to provide reliable and compatible network operation. They function with the IBM token-ring drivers included with many popular operating systems, including Windows(R) XP, NetWare(R) and IBM LAN Server, and has received security clearances from multiple federal law enforcement and service agencies.

"Repeat Business Very Rewarding"

"Getting repeat business with a giant international company -- not totaling more than $44,000 over the past four months -- is very rewarding and fulfilling," said Trevor M. Saliba, CirTran's executive vice president for worldwide business development.

"Even more than most, Lockheed has many choices when it comes to picking and choosing companies with which it wants to do business. Winning repeat business from a worldwide leader demonstrates that they recognize our ISO 9001:2000-certified manufacturing facility and process, as well as the overall quality of products produced by CirTran," he said.

Lockheed Martin (www.lockheed.com) is headquartered in Bethesda, Md., and employs some 130,000 people worldwide. The company is principally engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture and integration of advanced technology systems, products and services, and reported sales of $35.58 billion for fiscal 2004.
