<br clear="none" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Please note that during the above window an upstream supplier has advised Vocus of a hazard condition for Australia-USA and NewZealand-USA submarine cables due to Hurricane Iselle and Tropical Storm Julio over Hawaii. At the moment, indications are that the most affected will be the Big Island (Spencer Beach Cable Station) and to a lesser extent Oahu (Kahe Point Cable Station).</span><br clear="none" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br clear="none" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">The most likely impact to the cable stations would be loss of utility power to the facilities at some stage. However, as both sites have emergency plants and fuel supplies have been topped up, no loss of power is anticipated.</span><br clear="none" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br clear="none" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Vocus will supply further updates on this hazard condition as they become available.</span><br clear="none"></div><div>
