Dorado Continues Rapid Growth in 2006; Number of Registered Users
Jumps to 350,000

Introductions of ChannelMaster 4.0 and PriceMaster 4.0 accelerate move toward end-to-end network-based automation of mortgage origination and fulfillment

San Mateo, Calif.—January 30, 2007—Dorado Corporation continued to grow rapidly during 2006, adding 150,000 new registered users of its mortgage lending technology, and introducing new versions of its flagship products, ChannelMaster and PriceMaster. At year-end, Dorado solutions were supporting over 350,000 loan officers, brokers, and processors industry-wide, an increase from 200,000 at year-end 2005. The company now counts three out of the five largest lenders in the country as customers. The big increase in users of Dorado solutions was due to several new lenders’ implementations coming online during the year, as well as to increased adoption of existing Dorado products. “While it was a challenging year for the mortgage industry as a whole, our technology solutions give lenders the flexibility to compete profitably in any business environment,” said Dain Ehring, chief executive officer at Dorado. “We are very pleased
that lenders recognize this advantage, have chosen Dorado, and are increasingly using Dorado’s products.”

Dorado’s rapid growth during 2006 and previous years earned the company a spot on Inc. Magazine’s Inc. 500 list of America’s fastest-growing companies. In addition, the company was a recipient of the 2006 MAX Award Winner from Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq: ADBE), recognizing Dorado’s innovative use of rich Internet application technology in its ChannelMaster 4 product. ChannelMaster 4.0 is the industry’s first networked, multi-channel loan fulfillment solution that enables lenders to consolidate back-office operations and integrate partners and service providers into their fulfillment workflow. By eliminating product or channel-centric silos within a lending enterprise and by connecting loan production resources, ChannelMaster provides centralized control over end-to-end operations across the lender’s entire business, incorporating every channel, every branch, every product, every process, every partner, and every user. This, in turn, enables rapid adjustment of programs and processes across the enterprise to ensure business goals are continuously being met.

The year past also saw the introduction of PriceMaster 4.0, which enables business users to rapidly create new loan programs and risk-based pricing that can be quickly delivered to every channel and business unit with no IT involvement.

“Last year’s introduction of ChannelMaster 4.0 and PriceMaster 4.0 represented major steps forward in our efforts to automate and streamline mortgage origination and fulfillment for our customers and their borrowers,” said Mr. Ehring. “We believe that 2007 will be the year in which the idea of the ‘networked’ lending system will come of age.”
