D.C. Metropolitan Area`s Leading Fitness Club Extends Partnership with iCore Networks for Internet Telephony

iCore Networks Wins Sport & Health Contract Renewal for 525 Users
MCLEAN, Va.--(Business Wire)--
Sport & Health Clubs, the Washington metropolitan area`s largest and leading
health club operator, renews a contract for voice, data and Internet Services
with iCore Networks, the D.C. metro area`s leading provider of Voice over
Private Internet (VOPI) services.

"iCore`s services have been particularly beneficial for Sport & Health," said
Sport & Health CFO Scott Thomas. "We were able to consolidate our WAN,
equipment, & phone services with one reliable local provider. This allowed us to
more effectively manage these services at a lower cost."

Sport & Health renewed their previous contract with iCore for three years for
voice, data and Internet services for all club locations and its headquarters.
The iCore system will link 525 users with four-digit dialing at Sport & Health`s
McLean, Va. headquarters office and its 24 club locations in Virginia, Maryland
and D.C. iCore`s reliable, VoPI technology backed by Cisco Systems provides
advanced call features and top-notch voice quality enabling Sport & Health to
better manage telecommunication & data issues while reducing capital expenses
and monthly telecommunications costs.

"Voice quality, reliability and customer service are always important to telecom
customers, and iCore delivers on all three counts," said iCore CEO and Chairman
Stephen Canton. "We`re excited and honored to continue to provide our efficient
and dependable telecom system to the area`s top health and fitness operator in
its ongoing mission to promote good health and well-being in the community," he
concludes.
