OTTAWA, Canada - August 5, 2003 - Spotwave Wireless Inc., a wireless technology company solving the in-building coverage problems common to users of wireless voice and data services, today announced the appointment of Dominique Jodoin to the Spotwave Board of Directors.
Mr. Jodoin is Executive Vice President of Business Development and Sales, North America for WaterCove Networks. His extensive experience in mobile telecommunications includes managing and directing multi-faceted global sales, marketing, and operations. Mr. Jodoin joined WaterCove after spending 16 years with Ericsson, most recently as Executive Vice President and GM for Ericsson North America where he had general responsibility for global business with AT&T Wireless and its affiliates. He was previously President of Ericsson's Belgium-Luxembourg Market Unit, where he was responsible for all business operations. Mr. Jodoin also held several executive positions with Ericsson in Sweden, including Vice President of Sales, Marketing, and Operations for the TDMA Systems Business Unit.
"We are very pleased to have Mr. Jodoin on our board of directors," said Shane Young, president & CEO, Spotwave Wireless Inc.

Our board of directors and senior management team look forward to working with Dominique."
"Business people as well as consumers are increasingly relying on their wireless devices to be able to make and receive voice or data calls, regardless of their location," said Dominique Jodoin. " In fact, a number of leading wireless service providers have already deployed Spotwave Wireless solutions to make sure their customers never miss a chance to use their wireless devices due to bad indoor coverage, for example in office buildings, public venues or at the shops. Spotwave adaptive repeaters deliver a real solution to users of wireless services by providing anywhere, anytime coverage of wireless devices that are critical to their business. I look forward to contributing, as a board member, to the continued success of Spotwave and the expansion of their reach with carriers into a broad base of enterprise deployments."
