Innovative Wireless Technologies Provides Critical Component to Successful
L-3 Wireless Mesh Communications Solution

Forest, Virginia – July 15, 2008 – Innovative Wireless Technologies (IWT) today announced that in-mine operation of its wireless mesh communications technology was successfully demonstrated as part of L-3 Communications’ Wireless Mesh Mine Communications System. IWT is providing its communications technology to the team led by L-3’s Global Security & Engineering Solutions (GS&ES) division which is currently developing the system under a research and design contract from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).

This in-mine demonstration at the International Coal Group’s Sentinel Mine in Philippi, WV was conducted for personnel from the mining industry and NIOSH. As a result of this successful system event, which included demonstrations of wireless voice and data capabilities, NIOSH has authorized the L-3 GS&ES team to enter into the final phase of the research and development contract, which will result in a commercially-available product for the mining industry by the end of the year. The L-3 team will deploy a complete system in ICG’s Sentinel mine in August.

"IWT is pleased to be part of the L-3 Communications team selected by NIOSH to deliver a wireless mesh communications system in response to the MINER Act of 2006" said Eric Hansen, President and CEO of IWT. "This testing validates IWT’s wireless communication solution to provide simultaneous voice, data, and tracking to meet the needs of miners and first responders."
