Notes to editors

QuikTrak

QuikTrak is a telecommunications business that specialises in secure, reliable
and low-cost location, real-time tracking and mobile data communications. The
Company provides solutions for locating and tracking vehicles, people and mobile
assets through a terrestrial positioning network based on patented technology.

QuikTrak is able to locate objects or people that may be hidden from view;
unlike GPS-GSM systems it is almost impossible to jam and does not require '
line-of-sight'. This difference not only makes QuikTrak more effective and more
secure than existing tracking technologies but the system provides a lower cost
alternative to other tracking solutions available in the market.


QuikTrak Technology Applications

The potential applications for the technology are diverse, but currently
QuikTrak is focussing on a number of key areas including:
  Lone Worker Protection - tracking of individuals who work alone such as
     emergency services workers. The QuikTrak technology is to be trialled by a
     number of UK police forces, local councils, service organisations and 
     Primary Health Care Trusts.
  Commercial Fleet and Personnel Management - tracking of commercial
     vehicles such as courier or freight companies. In this market the QuikTrak
     technology is currently being trialled by companies such as a leading
     London-based courier company and utility and services organisations.
  Security Systems - such as asset security (for example cars, motorbikes,
     plant and equipment) and alarm systems. In this market QuikTrak is currently
  being trialled by a number of high profile companies.


QuikTrak Revenue Model

QuikTrak earns revenue from the sale of the tracking/messaging device. Ongoing
revenue is then secured by charging a recurring annual connection fee and for '
airtime usage.' The business model aims to partner with service providers in
specific sectors rather than seek to sell directly into the sector.
