EasyTel.Net and Global Crossing Donate 10,000 Toll-Free 800 Numbers to Provide Messaging Services to Hurricane Katrina Victims

• Companies join together to ease communications burden for Hurricane Katrina victims through free access to phone, fax and e-mail messaging.
• Launch of emergency messaging program begins at George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston and Austin Convention Center.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 2005

Florham Park, NJ – EasyTel, a unified communications company, and Global Crossing (NASDAQ: GLBC), a leading provider of telecommunications solutions over the world's first integrated global IP-based network, announced today the donation of 10,000 toll-free phone numbers with phone, fax and e-mail messaging to the victims of Hurricane Katrina. The joint relief effort aims to help victims of Hurricane Katrina find ways to stay in touch with their family, friends and others over the coming weeks and months, wherever they may be.

"In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, much of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and the surrounding area have been left devastated, without many basic services such as telephone service. Family members have been separated across towns and across the country, unable to reach each other," said Thomas Skala, chief executive of EasyTel. "To help ease the communications burden on these families we are donating EasyTel’s VoiceFaxEmail messaging service as victims start to reconnect and rebuild over the next few months."

"We’re proud to partner with our national customer, EasyTel, to provide 10,000 toll-free numbers and network support to make this relief effort possible," said John Legere, chief executive of Global Crossing. "Rebuilding the infrastructure throughout the hurricane-impacted region will be a long, slow process. In the meantime, we’re lending a hand like so many others to make Hurricane Katrina’s victims’ lives a bit easier and to bridge the communications gap between them and their loved ones."

The program will give disaster victims a toll-free number that can be used to send and receive voice, fax or e-mail messages. EasyTel’s messaging service includes:
• A toll-free telephone number: This number will be unique to each user, and will not change no matter where the user goes. Anyone can use the number to leave a message 24 hours, 7 days per week.
• Fax service: The same number can be used to receive faxes. Faxes can be forwarded to a fax machine or can be viewed via e-mail or online at via www.voicefaxemail.com.
• E-mail address: Users will also be able to use the number as an e-mail address, accessible at www.voicefaxemail.com . This address will allow users to send and receive e-mail through any computer with Internet access.

The program also includes a "Disaster Contact Directory" that enables family and friends to call a toll-free number to find out if their loved ones have registered with the program and how they can be contacted. The system, utilizing EasyTel’s Universal Office Platform, allows a user to enter someone’s name and the primary phone number they used before the hurricane. The Directory will use this information to locate a user and find the new toll-free number where the person can be contacted, if they are registered with this service. Loved ones can access the Disaster Contact Directory by calling 1-800-341-SEEK (7335). The Disaster Contact Directory will be updated daily as new users register.

The free program will extend through December 31, 2005 and is offered at no charge or obligation to those utilizing the program.

Messaging service information pamphlets with instructions on how to activate a unique phone number are being distributed to Hurricane Katrina victims through disaster relief organizations working in the area. The initial launch of the program will begin at check-in at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, TX and at the help desk of the Austin Convention Center in Austin, TX.
