Forward-looking statements
  • Certain statements in this presentation may
    constitute forward-looking statements which
    involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties
    and other factors which may cause the actual
    results, performance or achievements of the
    Company, or industry results, to be materially
    different from any future results, performance or
    achievements expressed or implied by such
    forward-looking statements. When used in this
    presentation, such statements are generally
    identified by the use of such words as "may",
    "will", "expect", "believe", "plan", "intend" and
    other similar terminology. These statements
    reflect Vecima's current expectations regarding
    future events and operating performance and speak
    only as of the date of this presentation.
    Forward-looking statements involve significant
    risks and uncertainties, should not be read as
    guarantees of future performance or results, and
    will not necessarily be accurate indications of
    whether or not such results will be achieved. A
    number of factors including, but not limited to,
    the factors discussed under "Risk Factors" in the
    Company's Annual Information Form dated September
    25, 2007 available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com),
    could cause actual results to differ materially
    from the results discussed in the forward-looking
    statements. Although the forward-looking
    statements contained in this presentation are
    based upon what management of the Company
    believes are reasonable assumptions, the Company
    cannot assure investors that actual results will
    be consistent with these forward-looking
    statements.These forward-looking statements are
    made as of the date of this presentation, and the
    Company assumes no obligation to update or revise
    them to reflect new events or circumstances.

Its all about bandwidth
  • Insatiable demand

Finite capacity
Legacy equipment and infrastructure limit access
to greater bandwidth
Users want more services, more choice and more
speed.

Meeting the demand
  • Long-term solution
  • Install Fiber Optic Networks

Short-term solution Maximize Existing Network
Prohibitively expensive Infrastructure
disruption Offers substantial bandwidth expansion
Cost effective Utilizes in place

What we do
  • Vecima productizes superior technology enabling
    access to more bandwidth by maximizing the
    capacity potential of current network
    infrastructure

Accessing bandwidth
  • Vecima improves access to bandwidth by
  • Replacing analog signals with digital in portions
    of the network
  • Efficiently managing digital signals before they
    reach the end user
  • Using wireless technology where there is no
    network infrastructure
