CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 5, 2003

Integrated communications provider PowerNet Global Communications (PNG) has allied with Millennium 3 Communications (M3Com) to deliver voice, data, conferencing, and international services to more than 14,000 member companies of the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM).

NAM member companies will have access to competitive telecommunications solutions, and at the same time, have their usage provide an additional source of funding for the association itself.

"We're pleased with our alliance with NAM and M3Com. It creates a win-win-win environment for all three organizations," said Bernie Stevens, President & CEO of PNG. "This opportunity increases demand for our nationwide voice and data solutions, while NAM members realize cost-savings on services that drive value back to their association members."

"The manufacturing environment has grown increasingly competitive, underscoring cost-control as a major priority. NAM members welcome a suite of communications services designed to substantially reduce their operating costs," said Jeff Freitas, President and CEO of M3Com. "When you combine M3Com's extensive global reach with PowerNet Global's domestic expertise, NAM members now have a single source to meet all of their communications needs."

NAM Members expect to save up to 40% on long distance and data transport solutions provided through the partnership.

"PowerNet Global and M3Com offer our member companies communications services designed to impact the bottom-line, while delivering a level of service that effectively supports their mission-critical applications," said David Walker, NAM Vice President for Marketing and Business Development. "We've given PowerNet Global and M3Com access to our roughly 14,000 member companies, representing an attractive mix of small, medium, and global companies, because they've separated themselves from the pack from the standpoint of service and support. We're very excited about this relationship, which is an extension of the NAM's existing alliance with M3Com."
