BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr. 09, 2012--NeoMedia Technologies, Inc.
(OTC BB: NEOM.OB), the pioneer in global mobile barcode management solutions,
today filed a patent litigation lawsuit against SpyderLynk, LLC.

The SpyderLynk lawsuit, filed in the District Court for the District of
Colorado, asserts infringement of two NeoMedia patents related to its mobile
barcode resolution technology. Specifically, the complaints assert infringement
of the following patents: U.S. Patent Nos. 6,199,048 and 8,131,597.

The lawsuit seeks to enjoin SpyderLynk from using NeoMedia's patented
technology and to recover damages caused by the infringement.

techniques and NeoMedia has, over the years, successfully negotiated multiple
license agreements with some of the top players in the mobile barcode market,"
