 global capabilities of the company. Gold Awards were scored by Equant for:

--Secure Data Transfer - A key attribute to ensure network security.

--Reaching Difficult Locations - The only carrier to excel in this attribute that reflects ability to provide services in remote locations.

A Telemark Gold Award is made for satisfaction scores rated at more than 20 percent above the Benchmark Standard that represents the attainment of an exceptional level of customer satisfaction.

The "Best in Class" awards reflect similar far reaching accomplishments:

--End-to-End Network Management - The only carrier to achieve the award for this essential attribute when geographically diverse locations are important.

--Single Point of Contact - Improves the ease of network management when many far-flung locations are involved.

--Operational Guarantees - The only carrier to receive the award for this attribute that provides great peace of mind when considering a geographically challenging network provider.

--Reaching Difficult Locations - Finally, the only carrier to excel in this attribute in the 'Best in Class' rankings.

"The significant achievements in the attributes support the consistent excellence throughout their broad network," states Dr. Kerry Tomlinson, author of the report. "It is not easy to achieve such a high level of excellence in attributes which require support throughout Equant's expansive network. Achieving expertise in capabilities that support global reach reassures MDNS users that the entire path of their network will be well looked after."

"Being recognized by Telemark with Gold and Best in Class rankings demonstrates that Equant remains focused on delivering on our customer commitments," said Alexandre Gouvea, senior vice president, Customer Services and Operations, Equant. "Equant strives to continually con·tin·u·al
