14 January 2004

AUSTRALIA --(Press Release) -- Gaming Laboratories Australia, the leading gaming testing company in the Australasian Region, has been granted a Testing Facilities License for the state of New South Wales by the Licensing Court of New South Wales.

GLI Australia is currently the only Testing Facility to be issued a license in the NSW region. The company is also listed on the Victorian Casino and Gaming Authority's Role of Suppliers and is an Accredited Testing Facility (ATF) for all other jurisdictions in Australia and New Zealand.

Managing Director of Gaming Laboratories Australia Ian Hughes said, "This license clearly demonstrates GLI Australia's commitment to the country's gaming industry and its regulatory bodies. We work diligently with all sides of the industry, and our compliance with recent legislation and our gaining approval to be licensed is a strong signal of both our commitment and expertise."

GLI Australia is the largest and most experienced gaming test laboratory in the region and tests for jurisdictions across the Australian region, which includes South Australia, Queensland, New South Wales, Western Australia, Northern Territory, Tasmania, Victoria and New Zealand.

Gaming Laboratories International, Inc. currently operates wholly owned and fully staffed gaming test laboratories in Lakewood, N.J.; Golden, Colo.; Las Vegas, Nev.; GLI Europe, B.V. in Hillegom, The Netherlands; GLI Africa in Midrand, South Africa. Gaming Laboratories Australia operates fully accredited test laboratories in Sydney and Adelaide under license to Gaming Laboratories International, Inc. GLI employees number approximately 275 worldwide, providing more than 76,000 certifications annually to over 360 gaming regulatory bodies worldwide. GLI was founded in 1989 by James R.
