(1) Assumes the sale of all shares of Common Stock registered hereunder,
although none of the Selling Stockholders are under any obligation known to
the Company to sell any shares of Common Stock.
(2) The shares of Common Stock to be held by such Selling Stockholder will be
acquired by such Selling Stockholder in connection with the sale of its
paging business to the Company. The number of shares to be issued in
connection with such sales is subject to adjustment in certain
circumstances and such shares may also be subject to certain rights to
indemnification on the part of the Company. As a result, it is not
possible to determine the number of such shares that ultimately will be
available for sale hereunder.
The Company will pay the expenses of registering the shares of Common Stock
being sold hereunder which are estimated to be approximately $67,000.
