Winncom won a $55 million tender to deploy a turnkey telecommunications project in Kazakhstan

Date: 1/31/2006

Winncom Technologies Announces Closing of $48 Million of the Financing for JSC Kazakhtelecom Project.

WHEAT RIDGE, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 31, 2006--ARC Wireless Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB:ARCS) today announced the closing of the Ex-Im Bank guaranteed portion of financing totaling approximately $48 million for the previously announced turnkey telecommunications project in Kazakhstan of its wholly owned subsidiary, Winncom Technologies Corp. JSC Kazakhtelecom has committed to the balance of the $55 million tender to either pay directly to Winncom or through a loan from the lenders.

Societe Generale is lending the money to Kazkommertsbank on behalf of the End User, JSC Kazakhtelecom. JSC Kazakhtelecom had approved the work program and timeline for part of the project, submitted by Winncom earlier, which was a prerequisite prior to the closing of the previously announced $2.3 million financing for Winncom to accelerate the installation of the fiber optic cable. Winncom completed the installation of the fiber optic cable in October 2005.

As part of the approved work program and prior to the closing of the financing, Winncom has recently sold to JSC Kazakhtelecom approximately $6 million of Lucent Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:LU) equipment and approximately $1 million of Cisco (NASDAQ:CSCO) equipment. The majority of the first phase of the turnkey fiber-optic communications network is expected to be completed by the end of the first quarter of this year; the commencement dates for the second and third phases have yet to be announced.

"We are pleased to report that the financing phase of this project is complete," stated Gregory E. Raskin, CEO and President of Winncom Technologies. "I know I speak for all of the employees of Winncom in saying that we are excited to meet the challenge of building out a turnkey telecommunications network and the opportunity to become one of the infrastructure leaders in the region," Mr. Raskin added.
