                    JEFF BRITE RESIGNS FROM FIBERSTARS BOARD

Fiberstars, Inc., announced today that Jeffrey Brite resigned as a Director of
the company.

In a letter to Fiberstars CEO John Davenport, Mr. Brite said his increasing
workload at M. Arthur Gensler Jr. & Associates, Inc. prevents him from
fulfilling his duties as a director of Fiberstars. Fiberstars' board meetings
alternate between Ohio and California, and board members frequently are called
upon to participate in business activities between board meetings.

Fiberstars' product development and marketing contracts with M. Arthur Gensler
Jr. & Associates, Inc. will continue.

John Davenport said, "I wish to thank Jeff for his contributions to the Company,
which have involved product development and marketing on EFO. I regard him as a
good friend, and wish him well in the future. Fiberstars will continue to work
with Gensler & Associates as EFO grows and becomes one of the leading energy
efficient lighting choices for architects and lighting designers around the
world."
