Numerex and Wavecom Join Forces to Deliver Revolutionary StarService in North America


    Numerex Corp. (NASDAQ: NMRX) and Wavecom announced today that
    Numerex will provide the revolutionary new Wavecom StarService for
    customers in North America.

    The Wavecom StarService will be delivered over Numerex's wireless
    network allowing users to remotely manage their wireless devices
    securely over-the-air (OTA). Easily integrated into customers'
    existing back-end applications, the service will enable users to
    remotely upgrade firmware and application software, configure devices,
    and implement remote diagnostics.

    "Numerex is thrilled to be a part of this offering which will
    undoubtedly bring tremendous value for current and new adopters of
    machine-to-machine (M2M) wireless technology," said Mike Lang, Senior
    Vice President for Numerex. "By combining Wavecom StarService with
    Numerex networks and our industry-leading M2M solutions, we will
    deliver a feature-rich platform on which our customers can design and
    develop a new generation of M2M products and services."

    "Numerex has been a long-time, trusted partner for Wavecom in
    North America and we are pleased to continue our partnership with this
    ground-breaking solution," said Stefan Lindvall, Group Vice President
    and Head of Region Americas for Wavecom. "Their expertise in the area
    of machine to machine communications is a natural complement to our
    hardware, software and services offerings. Together we will change the
    face of the industry."

    Numerex provides fixed and mobile M2M wireless solutions and a
    broad range of network services and technology to enable real-time
    wireless data communications for security, vending, utilities,
    automotive, healthcare and more. Their tailored, single-source
    approach ensures the right service for each customer application.

    By integrating the Wavecom StarService with Numerex network
    services, high-volume customers may qualify to receive the new Wavecom
    Wireless Microprocessor(R) 50, free of charge when they purchase
    StarService, through Numerex.

    The Wavecom Wireless Microprocessor(R) 50 is the new ARM9-based
    device designed for high-volume industrial M2M and automotive
    applications. It runs the Wavecom Open AT(R) Software Suite, which
    enables customers to develop embedded applications, and is expandable
    with a rich set of plug-ins. Samples of the WMP50 are available now.

    Commercial availability of StarService is expected in early 2008.
