    NEWSAT SECURES MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR
    COMMUNICATIONS DEAL
    NewSat Limited (ASX:NWT) announced today that the company has been selected by
    CapRock Communications for a five year multi-million US dollar telecommunications
    deal.
    Directors released details of NewSat’s substantial involvement in supplying CapRock
    with new satellite bandwidth in Asia that CapRock clients will use for VoIP (Voice
    over Internet Protocol), corporate network access, Internet access and other
    communication services..
    NewSat’s Perth teleport footprint will provision the communication services.
    The NewSat contract also breaks fresh ground for the company by establishing a supply
    link under a new alliance with Japanese satellite fleet operator JSAT on its latest JSAT
    2A facility. This extends NewSat’s complement of contracting satellite connectivity to
    five fleet operators and 13 satellites, the largest satellite supply array in Australia.
    This agreement builds on an excellent channel partner arrangement with CapRock and
    leverages the best from both companies; CapRock’s global status as a reliable satellite
    service provider to remote and harsh environments and NewSat’s strong regional
    technical and fixed asset presence.
    The Board emphasised that this new contract further underlines the strong and
    sustainable future of the company despite a depressed general economic and financial
    environment. The longevity as much as the quantum of the agreement is very
    encouraging as NewSat continues to build its annuity-based contract business model.
    The news highlights the value proposition of teleport ownership and the leveraging of
    assets to attract high-level satellite communications contracts. It also underlines the
    international recognition by space leaders and users around the world that NewSat is a
    highly desirable partner for long-term and major international communications
    contracts. And finally this contract, and others like it, continue to build the robust
    platform for sustainable results by NewSat.
    Signed
    John Walker
    Chairman
