4 National Instruments Profile Leaders in Computer-Based Measurement and Automation Long-term Track Record of Growth and Profitability NI HQ 820 M$ Revenue in 2008, up 11% year-over-year More than employees, operations in 40+ countries Fortune s 100 Best Companies to Work for ten consecutive years Asia 21% Europe 32% Americas 47%

5 Diversity of Customers companies No customer > 3% of Revenue >90% of Fortune 500 manufacturing companies

6 Diversity of Applications No Industry > 10% of Revenue Telecom Automotive Semiconductors Electronics Computers ATE Military/Aerospace Advanced Research & Big Physics Petrochemical Food Processing Textiles

7 Agenda 1. National Instruments Profile 2. What NI does 3. Big Physics approach 4. Introduction of the Round Table Chairman

8 What NI does Management systems software LabVIEW LabWindows/CVI Others Programming Languages Services for measurements and control GPIB, Serial & VXI DAQ and conditioning Modular Instruments PXI Motion Vision Third Party PLC

9 A Single Development Environment Wireless Networked I/O Sensor Handheld Embedded (FPGA & uc) Compact Vision System Reconfigurable Control I/O PC Industrial Computer (PXI) Workstation Graphical System Design Platform

10 Leverage Available Technology National Instruments takes off-the-shelf semiconductor and computing technology and applies it to measurement and automation applications. High rates of technological change in technologies and standards discourage National Instruments from manufacturing and optimizing its own semiconductor chips, except for very established and stable applications where integration is economically feasible. By out-sourcing our non-differentiated basic building block technology, NI leverages the rapid technological advancement of the semiconductor and computer suppliers, while retains the flexibility to conform to evolving industry standards.

11 Commit to Industry Standards By conforming to both established and emerging industry standards such as the IEEE 488/GPIB standards, the PCI architecture and IEC 61131, NI retains access to a larger percentage of the market. NI commitment to industry standards in both software and hardware ensure interoperability of NI products with others that conform to the industry standards. Interoperability is essential for NI positioning as a supplier of open, modular measurement and automation systems. By conforming to industry standard architectures and protocols NI is able to give customers more flexibility in their applications without the risks of proprietary, closed hardware architecture.
