Companies to Collaborate on Enhanced Emergency Communications Solutions for the China Market

LONGMONT, Colo.--June 30, 2005--Intrado Inc. (NASDAQ: TRDO), a global provider of integrated data and telecommunications solutions, and PDAger (XieJin) Technology Development Co., Ltd., a provider of mobility services and wireless emergency call solutions, today announced a memorandum of understanding regarding the companies' intent to form a joint venture focused on developing enhanced emergency communications solutions for public safety and disaster management agencies in China.


The two companies bring significant experience, expertise and competence to the relationship. Intrado provides the majority of the 9-1-1 call routing and location provisioning infrastructure in North America and has an extensive understanding of the emergency services operations model. PDAger provides technology platforms that support enhanced emergency calling services and has deployed a system for the public security emergency call center in Beijing.

"We are excited by the opportunity to work with PDAger on enhanced emergency communications capabilities for China," said George Heinrichs, Intrado chief executive officer. "We look forward to developing innovative solutions that address the Chinese public safety and emergency management environment through leading-edge communications technology."

"We are pleased to be working with Intrado and applying the benefit of the company's expertise in emergency communications to the China environment," said Zhu Qiao Zheng, PDAger's CEO.

Vistasia partners, a Colorado-based international business development firm with presence in Beijing, China and Vancouver, Canada, played a facilitation role in the development of the MOU between the two companies.
