    Regulatory News:

    Wavecom S.A. (Paris:AVM) (NASDAQ:WVCM) received the distinction of
    being awarded the 2008 trophy for innovation at a ceremony organized
    by the group Automotive Design (ADN) Center of PSA in Velizy (France)
    last Monday, March 10. This year´s award for innovation was given to
    Wavecom in recognition of its revolutionary inSIM(R) embedded SIM
    concept.

    The robust, industrial design of the inSIM(R) ensures proper
    functioning in harsh climatic conditions such as extremes of
    temperature, vibration and humidity which reduces the risk of
    disconnected devices that are often linked to high-value,
    time-sensitive transactional data.

    Being recognized by the automotive sector is particularly
    significant since it is a true standard for innovation, quality and
    reliability. Wavecom´s inSIM(R) was developed in collaboration with
    Wavecom´s expertise and automotive engineers. It draws on the specific
    automotive experience and goes one step further in wireless
    communication for the automotive industry.

    Michel Alard, Wavecom President accepted the honor stating,
    "Receiving an award is always gratifying, especially since it confirms
    that what were doing is inline with what the market needs. We are
    particularly proud of the embedded SIM concept (inSIM(R)) and being
    recognized by the PSA Peugeot Citroen group is a true distinction."
