| Fremont, CA August 20, 1998
(AURL: OTC Bulletin Board) Aureal Semiconductor Inc. today announced updated
information regarding the litigation between itself and Creative Technology Ltd., a
Singapore corporation ("Creative") and its subsidiary, E-MU Systems, Inc., a
California corporation ("E-MU"). Initially, Creative and E-MU filed suit in
February alleging that Aureals Vortex AU8820 Digital Audio Processor infringes upon
a patent which describes a specific implementation for an electronic musical instrument
designed by E-MU. Recently, Aureal filed a motion for summary judgment of the Creative/E-MU suit which is scheduled to be heard by the court on September 18, 1998. In response to this action, Creative/E-MU has filed a motion for a preliminary injunction with respect to the Vortex AU8820 chip and Aureals new Vortex 2 AU8830 chip. Aureal continues to believe this suit is without merit and intended to slow down Aureals mission of bringing innovative audio technology to the marketplace. Forward-looking statements in this release are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995. Investors are cautioned that such forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, dependence on the PC and consumer electronics industries and on product lines based on new technologies; foundry capacity, availability and reliability; competition and pricing pressures, and other risks detailed from time to time in the company's periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
