Wireless Matrix (TSX: WRX) today announced that the company has executed a contract extension with its satellite service provider, Reston, VA-based SkyTerra (OTCBB: SKYT) for services through 2012.

The agreement provides a seamless migration path that will allow Wireless Matrix to provide their existing satellite data communication services via SkyTerra's planned next generation satellite network. Wireless Matrix's satellite customers will continue to receive satellite communication service without interruption. Integrating satellite data services from SkyTerra with cellular data service via its proprietary modems provides a key differentiator for Wireless Matrix's vehicle management solutions. Using satellite to connect dispatchers with vehicles operating in cellular-poor areas, Wireless Matrix's solutions increase the effective coverage areas for fleet operations, improve productivity and enhance technician safety.

"This agreement paves the way for Wireless Matrix to extend valuable next generation broadband satellite services to our customers," said J. Richard Carlson, Wireless Matrix president and CEO. "We are pleased to renew what has been a highly successful relationship with SkyTerra. The new agreement provides business continuity and future capabilities to our satellite and multimode users."

"This service extension agreement will enable Wireless Matrix to continue to deliver efficient and real-time mobile wireless communications services for its growing roster of enterprise customers," said Susan Miller, senior vice president of Satellite Services for SkyTerra. "SkyTerra and Wireless Matrix have enjoyed a long and mutually beneficial relationship and we look forward to our continuing association with them as we advance toward our next-generation satellite-terrestrial communications network."

SkyTerra (formerly Mobile Satellite Ventures) has provided satellite communications service to Wireless Matrix since 1997. The previous agreement between the two companies provided for service through 2009.
