                            TimeSpring(R)

           Company Extends Customers' Recovery Options with
               "Any-Point-In-Time-Recovery" Capabilities


    SOUTHBOROUGH, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 26,
2007--Double-Take(R) Software (NASDAQ: DBTK) today announced the
acquisition of TimeSpring(R), a continuous data protection software
company. The acquisition bolsters Double-Take Software's protection
and back-up capabilities for virtualized and physical server
environments. Double-Take Software will integrate TimeSpring's unique
abilities to create any-point-in-time application consistent recovery
points into its suite of product offerings.

    "We feel TimeSpring offers the best point-in-time recovery
capabilities in the market and we are thrilled that Double-Take
Software has selected us to extend its protection and recovery
portfolio," said Rick Carlson, CEO of TimeSpring.

    With this acquisition, Double-Take Software broadens its overall
recovery strategy. Today business customers use Double-Take continuous
data replication to instantly recover the most recent version of their
data, applications and operating system. Adding TimeSpring to the
Double-Take suite of products, the company extends its recovery
approach beyond disaster recovery for catastrophic failures, to
operational recovery, such as recovering from routine human errors.
TimeSpring enhances Double-Take to perform granular, or item-level
recoveries, from any point in time. The combination of Double-Take
continuous replication with TimeSpring's Any-Point-In-Time
capabilities allows IT administrators the ability to "rewind" and
"fast-forward" the data on the server and recover to the moment before
an unwanted change.

    The granularity of operational recovery extends to the
application-level, which allows users to see application data in
native format so they can easily recover from any point in time. The
product's application awareness allows administrators to determine
application consistency points which further enable their ability to
achieve superior operational recovery. This combined technology also
impacts how IT managers protect and recover specific applications as
follows:

    --  Microsoft SQL - Recover SQL databases from multiple points in
        time.

    --  Microsoft SharePoint Services - Rewind through multiple
        versions of a SharePoint site directly from within a browser
        and recover items simply by dragging and dropping them from an
        older version of the site to the latest version.

    --  Microsoft Exchange - Access to item-level recovery
        capabilities allowing for quick recovery of entire Exchange
        mailbox databases or individual mail items, calendar
        appointments and even Outlook tasks.

    "In addition to acquiring TimeSpring's patented technology,
Double-Take Software is excited to be adding the Montreal-based
company's employees to its roster," said Dean Goodermote, CEO of
Double-Take Software. "TimeSpring's engineering expertise,
specifically in the area of file systems and application level
recovery, fits extremely well into Double-Take Software's core
capabilities as does its product design into our architecture. This
strategic acquisition aligns well with Double-Take Software's existing
and future products," Goodermote added.

    The transaction was structured as a purchase of 100% of the
outstanding shares of TimeSpring, for a total cash purchase price of
approximately $8.3M plus transaction costs, subject to certain
customary post-closing adjustments.
