GlobeTel Completes Expansion and Upgrade of the Los Angeles Telecommunications Facilities

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Jul 08, 2005 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- GlobeTel Communications Corp. (AMEX:GTE) today announced that it has upgraded its telecommunications center in Los Angeles by acquiring additional state-of-the-art telecommunications equipment and that it has completed its move to a larger facility.
The new facility has over 6,000 square feet and has the capability of terminating over 500 million VoIP/TDM minutes per month. In addition to the ability to accommodate the company's current wholesale carrier traffic, the Los Angeles network will accommodate the expected volume from the pre-paid calling card function of its Stored-Value Card program and IP phone operations and still has expansion capabilities to enable the handling of the wireless traffic from the Company's Stratellite and HotZone Wireless operations.

Timothy M. Huff, CEO of GlobeTel, stated, "The expansion of our Los Angeles facilities is a planned growth move for us to meet our planned growth objectives. The expansion illustrates the way our independent business units interact and complement each other. I am exceptionally pleased with the progress of all of our business units and we are looking forward to continued business growth and increases in revenues. All four of our business units are operating as planned and I am pleased with their continued progress."
