Intrado Adds Eight New VoIP Service Providers to its V9-1-1 Mobility Service Customer List; Comprehensive VoIP E9-1-1 Solution Supports Providers Plans for FCC Compliance

Business Wire, Sept 19, 2005

LONGMONT, Colo. -- Intrado Inc. (Nasdaq:TRDO), a global provider of integrated data and telecommunications solutions, today announced the addition of eight new VoIP service providers (VSPs) to its Intrado V9-1-1(SM) Mobility Service customer base. Affinity, DNA, Ecuity, Heartland, I2, Spirit, Telefinity and US LEC have all chosen V9-1-1 Mobility Service as they move to comply with the new FCC VoIP E9-1-1 mandate, currently scheduled to go into effect on November 28, 2005.

"We're pleased that these providers have chosen Intrado to support their VoIP E9-1-1 delivery requirements," said Stephen Meer, Intrado co-founder and chief technology officer. "By the November 28th deadline, we're confident in our ability to offer the widest coverage with the most comprehensive solution available in the market."

Comprehensive VoIP E9-1-1 call delivery requires that the call be quickly routed to the correct public safety agency with accurate caller and location information. To do this, several critical technological capabilities and business agreements must be in place, including:

--Selective router access agreements to deliver the call natively

--9-1-1 service provider provisioning agreements for call routing instructions

--Network connectivity to deliver VoIP customer records to the PSAP

The Intrado V9-1-1 Mobility Service provides a simple and comprehensive solution that meets these technical and business requirements. Additionally, Intrado's unique solution continues to enable VSPs to execute a streamlined network solution that reduces their time to market and implementation requirements in support of their VoIP E9-1-1 initiatives.
