Source: Yahoo Finance, Analyst Estimates CLRI also offers a monthly, subscription-based interoperability
service – X-Stream Access™, which is designed for public-safety
applications, as well as mission-critical communications. This sub-
scription service facilitates interoperability across unicast or mul-
ticast networks, regardless of software, hardware or proprietary
protocols. The X-Stream Access solution may be integrated into an
agency’s existing communications infrastructure to link with other
agency’s radio channels or non-shared systems. Through this ser-
vice, agencies can avoid substantial start-up costs associated with
developing, managing and deploying their own proprietary sys-
tem.

CLRI’s interoperability devices have applications in virtually ev-


ery market where communications interconnectivity is essential,
including Homeland Security, fire, safety and emergency services,
and mission- critical military and commercial applications. Since
launching its integrated software and hardware solutions in April
2008, the Company has sold and installed systems at three major
international airports and currently has proposals out with nine ad-
ditional airports in the U.S. and Canada. CLRI also is completing
a project with a large international transportation company which,

when completed, will consolidate over 175 dispatch centers into one central dispatch center. Additionally, the
Company has pilot projects in the United States, Canada, Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe.

The Company, formerly known as GlobalTel IP Inc., was founded in 1999 and is based in Boca Raton, Florida.
CLRI operates through its wholly owned subsidiary, VoiceInterop Inc.

Investment Highlights
Innovative solutions for interconnectivity

CLRI provides enterprise and hosted unified communications technologies with applications in the Homeland
Security, public safety, first responder and critical infrastructure markets. Its technologies allow shared commu-
nications among incompatible communication devices. The Company’s unified group communications capabil-
ity enables disparate devices to interconnect by converting analog voice to digital packets and transporting the
packets via IP over distances.

Business model combines internal growth and synergetic acquisitions

The Company’s proprietary AudioMate software and hardware solutions deliver both enterprise sales, which
generate one-time revenues, as well as hosted and managed services, which generate recurring revenues.
Through the hosted and managed services model, customers are able to acquire a communications interoper-
ability capability without CAPEX outlays. In addition to internal growth, CLRI is pursuing acquisitions that will
provide operating synergies, broaden the Company’s customer base, and be accretive on a consolidated financial
basis.

Significant market opportunity

A strong market outlook supports the Company’s growth prospects. The worldwide market for unified com-
munications solutions is expected to grow from $25.5 billion in 2008 to $48.7 billion in 2012. CLRI anticipates
capturing at least a small percentage of this market through one-time installations and subscriptions. Even a
modest share would produce sizable revenues. For example, a 1% share of a $25 billion market implies sales of
$250 million.

In 2007, the worldwide telecommunications market grew to $1.8 trillion. Experts estimate 7.6% growth and a $2
trillion market in 2008. Technologies such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and broadband video, as well
as new mobile data services, are key drivers of telecommunications industry growth. In the past, the structure
of the telecommunication industry relied on tight integration of critical communication functionality. Services
were provided by a very limited set of players. Today, packet-based Internet is creating space for new market
participants through its open design, service and delivery functionality.

AudioMate 360 competitive advantages

CLRI has developed a line of AudioMate 360 Internet Protocol gateways specifically for users of unified group
communications. AudioMate360 IP gateways link analog, land mobile radio and iDEN device communications.
CLRI’s product line is priced well below similar competitors’ devices. In addition, the Company’s IP gateways
are standards-based, software programmable, and virtually plug and play.
A full service customer solution from design to maintenance

January 27th, 2009

The Company provides a full suite of services to its clients, from designing custom unified communications solu-
tions to maintaining a managed unified communications in X-Stream Access, to providing 24/7/365 maintenance
and support. X-Stream Access utilizes WAVE software and allows customers to communicate anytime, anywhere,
on any type of existing communication device.

Growing list of customers and partners

Since launching its integrated software and hardware solutions in April 2008, the Company has sold and installed
systems at three major international airports. Proposals are out to nine additional airports in the U.S. and Canada.
The Company is completing a project with a large international transportation company which will consolidate
over 175 dispatch centers into one central dispatch center and has pilot projects in the United States, Canada, Lat-
in America, the Caribbean and Europe. Other sales and installations have been completed with several Microsoft
Gold partners, Lockheed Martin, Westwood One, Nomad Solutions, CenGen and others. In addition the Com-
pany has partnered with Twisted Pair Solutions, Cisco, Sprint/Nextel, Motorola (NAMD), NEC, KITS and IS-MS.

CLRI is already generating revenues

The Company generated revenues totaling $254,555 in the first nine months of FY 2008. CLRI plans to leverage
organic growth through parallel and complementary acquisitions of technologies and businesses.

We expect CLRI’s revenues to rise to a $6.6 million range in FY 2009, increase to approximately $13.2 million in FY
2010 and reach $26 million in FY 2011.

CLRI is implementing a three-pronged marketing approach. The first part entails building a sales force to handle
both direct sales and recruiting channel partners. The second piece involves indirect marketing through channel
partners and systems integrators. The third part leverages professional service, legal and lobbyists partners to as-
sist in securing grant-funded public sector opportunities.

Business Model
The Company designs, builds and installs unified communications solutions for both enterprise and managed
environments. Its communication software and hardware devices have the ability to connect various incompat-
ible communications devices such as two-way radios, phones, cellular phones, PDAs, smart phones and public
address systems to Internet Protocol (IP) telephony systems, as well as other pre-existing group communica-
tions networks, regardless of geographic location, make, model and frequency. CLRI has three versions of Au-
dioMate360 IP gateway devices, each supporting a different function – analog, iDEN (Nextel push-to-talk) and
land mobile radio. The Company has also developed unique firmware solutions that integrate its hardware with
partner software to create unified group communications between public and private sector organizations.

In December 2008, the Company introduced X-Stream AccessTM, a managed subscription-based service solu-
tion for emergency communications interoperability. The new service is powered by Twisted Pair Solution’s
WAVETM software, a widely deployed group communications software solution. CLRI acts as the host of the
service. Customers subscribe based on their needs and avoid the huge upfront expenses, which would be re-
quired to replace existing communications infrastructure. X-Stream Access allows customers to choose groups
that can communicate and specify which devices are allowed in the network. The customer pays monthly per
group and per device fees. In addition, WAVE software is integrated with CLRI’s AM360 IP gateway devices to
enhance product and service offerings and eliminate the costs and complexities of proprietary solutions.

CLRI has established strong relationships with contract manufacturers and key suppliers. The Company has
partnered with several technology and solution providers for testing, field trials, proof of concept and evalua-
tions. The Company has partnered with Twisted Pair Solutions, Cisco, Sprint/Nextel, Motorola (NAMD), NEC,
KITS and IS-MS. CLRI also lets system integrators add its products and services to their offerings. To-date, the
Company has integrated its services with those of Nortel and Avaya IP PBX resellers, Cisco network suppliers,
Motorola two-way and iDEN radio dealers, and wide-area campus alerting suppliers.

The Company’s business model can be summarized as follows:

CLRI generates enterprise sales from IP gateway installations and recurring revenues from subscriptions to its
hosted and managed services.

Marketing strategy

CLRI has developed a three-pronged marketing strategy that encompasses a sales force for both direct sales and
recruiting channel partners; indirect marketing through channel partners and systems integrators; and relation-
ships with professional service, legal and lobbyists partners to assist in securing PSIC grant-funded public sector
opportunities.

The Company has identified the following target markets:

Services
The Company provides a full suite of related services, from designing custom unified communications solutions
to maintaining a managed unified communication service in X-Stream Access, to providing 24/7/365 maintenance
and support of X-Stream Access.

Unified communications

Unified communications is achieved over geographically diverse areas by converting analog voice to digital pack-
ets and transporting the packets via Internet Protocol (IP). At an enterprise level, these packets allow for voice
collaboration via a client’s private LAN, WAN or public VPN Internet connections. Once AudioMate software is
implemented, clients can link and/or patch in one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one or many-to-many devices,
according to their needs and desired speed of deployment.

Managed services

CLRI’s X-Stream Access is a subscription-based communications service. It provides unified group communica-
tions for interoperability consistent with SAFECOM BSI guidelines, utilizing an agency’s existing communica-
tions infrastructure, and linking in other groups using disparate radio channels or non-shared systems. It’s as

Industry Outlook
The communications industry is the backbone of today’s economy. Industry sales were estimated at $1.2 trillion in
2006. In the past, the industry’s structure depended on rigid integration of critical communication functionality.
Services were provided by a very limited number of players, with the core of the network supplying this tightly
integrated set of features, and the edge (i.e., users) consuming them. Today, packet-based Internet is decoupling
this structure and creating space for new competitors through its open design, service and delivery functional-
ity. The pace of industry innovation is accelerating because of changes in communications technology, business
models and regulations.

In 2007, the worldwide telecommunications market grew to $1.8 trillion. This market is estimated to grow 7.6% in
2008 to $2 trillion. From a regional perspective, North America remains the largest telecommunications market,
with revenues estimated to exceed $511.6 billion in 2008, a 4.5% increase from 2007. Technologies such as Voice
over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and broadband video, as well as new mobile data services, are key growth drivers
in the telecommunications industry. According to Insight Research, the telecommunications industry has fully
recovered from the malaise of recent years and is ramping up to build broadband networks that will support new
types of services.

Communications interoperability market

A 2006 study conducted by Forrester research revealed that businesses and government agencies utilize a variety
of communication devices, including wired and wireless telephones, PCs, PDA, RIM devices, pagers and several
types of messaging systems. Each mode of communication requires a separate contact address and separate man-
agement, administration and directories. Disparate systems and devices increase the complexity of managing
business communications. Despite the proliferation of voice and data communication devices, businesses and
government agencies still lack the ability to effectively communicate with each other.

The Communications Interoperability Markets and Technology Forecast - 2008-2012 report released by the Home-
land Security Research Corporation estimates the overall value of the 2008-2012 cumulative interoperable commu-
nications market in the U.S. and E.U., including systems, maintenance and upgrades, National Guard and cellular
user fees (in the U.S.), at $73 billion. Communications is one of the fastest growing segments of the Homeland
Security market, with combined growth of the U.S. and E.U. markets forecast at 18.6% annually from 2008-20121.
This growth is attributable to a better understanding of the advantages of unified communications, the need to
replace outdated infrastructure, an increasing sense of urgency, and funding allocated by government and private
industry.

The problems resulting from lack of communications interoperability became readily apparent during the 9/11
terrorist attacks and Hurricane Katrina. These catastrophes confirmed what first responders have known for years
- lack of communication interoperability costs lives. After 9/11 the Department of Homeland Security recognized
that some 90% of the public safety communications infrastructure in the U.S. is owned and operated at the local
and state level; in response, the Department of Homeland Security established its SAFECOM program to help lo-
cal and state authorities address communication interoperability problems2.

However, eight large U.S cities representing a total population of 10.8 million are still communications interoper-
ability nightmares in emergency situations, as shown in the table below. A score below 0.6 indicates a very low
level of interoperability.

The tragic consequences of Hurricane Katrina made it obvious to all that drastic communications interoperabil-
ity reform was needed. Louisiana, the state most affected by Hurricane Katrina, was the first to address the issue
head-on and allocate the necessary funding. Louisiana increased its budget for communications interoperability
spending by 140% and is spearheading the implementation of sweeping interoperability communications re-
forms across the U.S. From the state’s new budget of $34 million, 61% will be allocated for connectivity in north
Louisiana, 25% for system maintenance, 11% for portable radios for local and state responders and the rest for
new interoperability staff positions. Many other U.S. states are expected to follow Louisiana’s lead, creating im-
mense public sector business opportunities for CLRI and others.

Overall, the Homeland Security communications interoperability market is expected to grow 22% annually over
the next few years as necessary upgrades are made to state and local public safety agencies and organizations.

Financial Analysis

The Company recently commenced operation in the unified communications market and has recorded modest
revenues to-date. Revenues rose to $254,555 during the nine months ended June 30, 2008, from $27,334 during
the same period one year earlier.

Cost of revenues was $194,950 for the nine month FY 2008 period versus $21,057 one year earlier and operating
expense increased to $1,484,420 from $546,623. The main reason for the large increase in operating expenses was
the ramp-up of the Company’s business operations in FY 2008.

CLRI’s net loss increased $886,159 year-over-year to $1,463,454 during the first nine months of FY 2008. This in-
creased loss reflects higher administrative expenses and investments in product development and marketing.

Liquidity and capital resources

The Company has little cash and negative operating cash flow. Obligations are being met on a month-to-month
basis as cash becomes available.

CLRI has incurred losses since its inception, and will likely require additional capital to fund its FY 2009 business
activities. Management estimates current operating costs at approximately $167,000 per month. The Company
will likely need to raise at least $2 million through equity or debt financing to fund its FY 2009 business plan.

Revenue Outlook

CLRI is a global provider of advanced unified communications solutions that make communications intercon-
nectivity easier and cheaper. The Company plans to grow by:

• Leveraging R&D investments through product innovation and lifecycle management;


• Establishing a geographically diverse backup manufacturing and order fulfillment capability;
• Capturing growth opportunities in international markets;
• Solidifying relationships with leading channel partners and system integrators;
• Investing in marketing campaigns; and
• Exercising capital discipline and preserving financial flexibility.

A strong industry outlook enhances CLRI’s growth prospects. The worldwide market for unified communica-
tions solutions is projected to nearly double in size from $25.5 billion in 2008 to $48.7 billion in 2012. Even cap-
turing a small percentage of the market through installations and hosted network subscriptions would produce
meaningful revenues for the Company - 1% market share is $250 million.

Based on our conversations with management, we are forecasting FY 2009 revenues will rise to a $6.6 million
range, then increase to approximately $13.2 million in FY 2010 and $26 million in FY 2011. We also expect EBIT-
DA growth to follow a similar trajectory, with EBITDA climbing from $1.7 million in FY 2009 to $2.9 million in
FY 2010 and reaching $6.0 million in FY 2011.

Investment Risks
Limited operating history

CLRI has operated its current business only since June 2007. As a result, there is a limited operating history to
review, making it difficult to evaluate the Company’s business and prospects. The risks and difficulties facing the
Company include challenges in accurate financial planning and uncertainties resulting from a shorter period for
evaluating the success of business strategies as compared to companies with longer operating histories.

Lack of revenues and negative operating cash flows

Since its inception, the Company has generated net losses and negative operating cash flows. While management
anticipates a rapid rollout of its business plan, there is no assurance that CLRI will achieve its revenue growth
targets.

Availability of funding

The Company will likely require substantial additional capital to pursue its business strategy. Accumulated losses
to-date and limited tangible assets may make it difficult for CLRI to obtain additional funds on acceptable terms.
We think the Company will need to raise at least $2 million through debt or equity financing to implement its FY
2009 business plan.

Reliance on third party software

CLRI doesn’t develop, maintain or improve unified group communications software. Instead, the Company uti-
lizes unified group communications software owned by Twisted Pair Solutions. CLRI’s reseller agreement with
Twisted Pair Solutions may be terminated at any time without cause upon 30 days prior written notice. Another
agreement, which relates to an application service provider service the Company is developing, has an initial
term expiring in 2011. There can be no assurance that Twisted Pair Solutions will not terminate the reseller agree-
ment with CLRI or that the Company will be able to satisfy the terms and conditions of its second agreement with
Twisted Pair Solutions.

Competitive pressure

The unified group communications industry is extremely competitive. Over the past year, the number of compa-
nies entering this market has increased dramatically. Competitive pricing pressures may negatively impact profit
margins. Competitors include Cisco Systems Inc., Tyco Electronics Ltd., Catalyst Communications Technologies
Inc., Telex Inc., Federal Signal Corporation and MutualLink Inc., as well as Twisted Pair Solutions and other resell-
ers and licensees.
