<div><font face="0imesNewRoman, sans-serif" size="3">Wholesale voice and Internet newcomer Vocus is on the warpath against AAPT, offering three months of free IP Transit for AAPT customers who ditch the company to shift to Vocus. With AAPT said to be stonewalling
Vocus in a peering dispute, CEO James Spenceley has begun a twopronged attack – appealing to the ACCC to force a resolution while making a land-grab for AAPT customers.</font></div>
<div><font face="Calibri, sans-serif"> </font></div>
<div><font face="0imesNewRoman, sans-serif" size="3">“Unfortunately we haven’t been able to reach any form of agreement with AAPT on the topic of Internet Interconnection. Internally we’ve come to the conclusion that it far simpler to make it as attractive
as possible for customers to leave AAPT and join the Vocus network, negating the requirement for peering with AAPT,” said Spenceley.</font></div>
<div><font face="Calibri, sans-serif"> </font></div>
<div><font face="0imesNewRoman, sans-serif" size="3">“In addition to making this offer to AAPT customers we have contacted the ACCC and will continue to work with them and pursue a regulatory solution to the dispute,” he said, adding Vocus would like to resume
negotiations – “but the ball is firmly in their court.”</font></div>
<div><font face="Calibri, sans-serif"> </font></div>
<div><font face="0imesNewRoman, sans-serif" size="3">“There’s no doubt that the hierarchy of the telecommunications industry is changing. Fast moving, customer-focused companies like Vocus are able to compete and offer superior service,” Spenceley said.</font></div>
