BROKEN ARROW, Okla.--(Business Wire)--
XETA Technologies (Nasdaq:XETA), a national provider of converged communications
solutions for the enterprise marketplace, announced today that it has been
selected by Siemens Enterprise Networks to provide technical support services
for the U.S. operations of a global pharmaceutical company. XETA provides
services on behalf of Siemens and other systems integrators, original equipment
manufacturers and network service providers. 

Beginning October, 2009, XETA will provide technical support, field support, and
help desk services for the customer`s communications and IT infrastructure under
a three-year contract. XETA expects annual revenue from the contract to exceed
$1 million per year. 

"This win is another example of how large enterprise customers are looking to
XETA to provide service for multiple equipment vendors and support in migrating
communications technology. Many large enterprise customers, especially those who
have grown through acquisition, have made investments in both Nortel and Avaya
technologies. As one of the only partners with a nationwide sales and service
footprint and the highest level of accreditation from both vendors, XETA is
unique in that we offer a single provider solution," said Scott Davis, XETA`s
Executive Director of Nortel Sales.

wholesale service partners," commented Greg Forrest, CEO and President of XETA
Technologies.
