CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Dec 10, 2013) - Zedi Inc. (TSX VENTURE:ZED) ("Zedi" or the "Corporation") announced on October 24, 2013 that it had received notice from TELUS Communications ("TELUS") that the TELUS CDMA EVDO service in British Columbia and rural Alberta will be discontinued effective March 31, 2014. Subsequent to that announcement, Zedi has been working diligently to define the full scope, timeline and costs that will be associated with the network discontinuance and has reached an agreement with TELUS on a project plan that finalizes the timing and scope of the work. Field work has commenced based on the project plan. Based on the current schedule in the project plan, the turndown of the network will commence on March 31, 2014, with a phased discontinuance of the EVDO service through to June 30, 2014. There are 7,960 devices that must have HSPA modem updates no later than June 30, 2014. An additional 1,780 devices must be updated by June 30, 2015. Total direct project costs to the Corporation under the plan are projected to be in the range of $10-12 million, prior to any further mitigation. To minimize the impact to its customers, the Corporation is using its own funds to pay the costs associated with the discontinuance of the network and is continuing in its discussions with TELUS with respect to their expected contribution to such costs. The Corporation continues to work diligently internally and with TELUS to both reduce and mitigate the impact on Zedi. Zedi will provide further updates as circumstances warrant.
