Executive Summary

• We believe Veronis Suhler Stevenson has a minimum sale price range of $185-215M– $185M yields an IRR of 30% for VSS and below this threshold the MIP is not fully vested– $215M yields an IRR of 40% and an additional bonus payment of $3M to ITN management

• Under previous ITN economic forecasts the EBITDA multiple required to meet VSS minimum price was prohibitive

– Providing an IRR of 30% to VSS in Q4 ’07 required acquiring ITN at 11x 2007 EBITDA ($175M)– Unlikely that an 11x EBITDA acquisition would have been approved by Tokyo as ITN delivered

2007 EBITDA of $16M against a forecast of $22M

• Improved ITN profitability has created a window of opportunity for VSS to exit at an acceptable IRR and for SPT to gain control at a reasonable EBITDA multiple

– Based on 2008 EBITDA forecasts, the perceived minimum acquisition price of $185M represents 7.2x EBITDA

– Given the uncertainty associated with future ITN cash flows VSS may elect to exit the business

*Unless noted, IRR figures calculated based on July 2008 transaction

• Should SPT choose to pursue an acquisition of ITN:– Upon SPT notifying VSS of intention to acquire SPT receives a 30 day “first look” right of

negotiation before VSS can engage a third party– VSS is under no obligation to sell to SPE– If VSS sells to a third party customary drag along rights will apply to SPT

Bank Case Actuals/ Q4 '07 Proj.

• 2006 actual EBITDA missed bank case projections by 16%

• 2007 Actual missed target by 27%

• Given this underperformance, acquiring ITN at the end 2007 would have required paying 10.9x EBITDA--more than twice the original acquisition multiple

Actuals/ Q1 '08 Forecast Bank Case

• Revised ITN Q1 ’08 forecast suggests 2008 EBITDA will outperform bank case projections by 9%

• Projected 2008 EBITDA reduces the EBITDA multiple required to ensure a 30% IRR for VSS from 10.9x to 7.2x

• VSS may view current performance improvement as an opportunity to exit a business with inconsistent cash flows at an attractive IRR

ITN Waterfall Distributions Overview

• First, Pay off Debt

• Second, to the Investors with respect to the Series A units in an amount equal to invested capital;

• Third, $500,000 to ZM which is to be treated as Series A invested capital

• Fourth, to the Investors with respect to the Series A units, an 8% per year return on investment, compounded annually (with ZM’s $500,000 being deemed invested capital);

• Fifth, to the Series C unit holders, up to 3.2% of the balance of the available cash (note: these are the “warrants” with respect to the subordinated debt);

• Sixth, to the management group* an “equity value payment” calculated as follows: (1) if realized equity value is less than or equal to $300MM, 2% of such equity value; (2) if realized equity value is $300MM-$400MM, 2% of such equity value plus 1 basis point for each $1MM of realized value over $300MM; and (3) if realized equity value is greater than $400MM, 3% of such equity value;

• Seventh, 90% to the Series A Investors and 10% to Series B unit holder until the Series A Investors have received an aggregate of 2X their invested capital by reason of the distributions pursuant to clauses First through Seventh; provided that up to 28% of the Series A Investors’ distribution pursuant to this paragraph will be reallocated to the MIP; An additional payment of $3MM is distributable to the management group upon reaching a 40% IRR for Series A Investors

• Eighth, 80% to the Series A Investors and 20% to ITN (Series B unit holder); provided that up to 28% of the Series A Investors’ distribution pursuant to this paragraph will be reallocated to the MIP.

• Distributions to the MIP as described above occur only upon a Liquidation Event.
