COLOR KINETICS ANNOUNCES EXECUTIVE TRADING PLAN
Boston, MA - February 3, 2005 - Color Kinetics Incorporated (NASDAQ: CLRK), a pioneer in the design, marketing and licensing of intelligent solid-state lighting systems and technologies, today announced that certain of its executives have entered into 10b5-1 trading plans. The stock trading plans were adopted in accordance with the company's insider trading policy and are intended to comply with guidelines specified under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.
Under the plans, the insiders retain no discretion over sales of shares covered by the plans, and trades will be executed through a broker at later dates without any input or action by the insider.
Trading under the plans will not begin prior to two business days after the public release of the company's fourth quarter of 2004 earnings. The CEO, COO, CFO, CTO and other executive officers who have entered into 10b5-1 plans have done so for tax planning purposes, to allow for diversification of their holdings gradually over time, and in advance of certain stock option grants expiring.
All trades for executive officers of Color Kinetics will be publicly reported on Forms 144 and Forms 4 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
