`SUNNYVALE, Calif., — Sept. 22, 2014 — MHL, LLC today announced that more than 650 million MHL® products

`global MHL ecosystem includes adapters, automotive accessories, A/V receivers, Blu-ray Disc™ players, cables,
`DTVs, monitors, projectors, smartphones, streaming media sticks, tablets and more.

`capture brilliant photos and videos and then enjoy them in full 4K Ultra HD beauty on their big screen TV.
`
`MHL has also achieved broader adoption in emerging markets such as India and China where smartphone
`shipments are rapidly accelerating. In these areas, consumers want more out of their smartphones – taking them
`beyond communication devices and transforming them into gaming consoles, powerful PCs and entertainment
`systems. The ability to connect a smartphone or tablet to the big screen to display photos and videos, play games or
`use productivity applications is a compelling value proposition, which continues to expand the adoption of MHL in
`emerging markets.
`
`“When we released the first MHL specification, we started with a simple idea of connecting a phone to a TV. This
`has now evolved into an advanced world of connectivity,” said Rob Tobias, president, MHL, LLC. “Our product
`ecosystem has rapidly grown and the use cases continue to expand, making MHL the world’s most widely adopted
`mobile TV-out standard and the de-facto connectivity between mobile, consumer electronics and automotive
`products.”
`
`A World of Possibilities with MHL:
`Stay: Watch movies and view photos from the comforts of home all while using the TV’s remote control to access
`the mobile device’s content. Home entertainment has never been easier.
`Play: Experience mobile gaming on a larger screen with no lag, all while the TV provides power to the smartphone
`or tablet for extended game play.
`Away: Transform a mobile device into a portable computer by connecting it to a keyboard, mouse, monitor (or
`multiple monitors) and storage device to work anytime, anywhere.
