Fusion’s Strategy

6

Page 7: Fusion investor presentation september 2013 final 1

Fusion operates in a large and fast growing marketplace as Cloud based services gain customer acceptance and market share from incumbent telephone and technology companies

The competitive landscape is highly fragmented with providers typically offering a limited service offering and geographic coverage

Many of these smaller firms lack the financial and operational resources to remain competitive and present excellent acquisition opportunities for Fusion

The opportunities of cross marketing synergies as well as the benefits of economies of scale make acquisitions an attractive vehicle to enhance Fusion's growth profile

Fusion successfully acquired and integrated its first acquisition in October 2012 and now has the staff and technical infrastructure platform to more easily tuck in additional accretive acquisitions.

Fusion has signed a binding letter of intent to purchase select cloud services assets of Broadvox, a provider of wholesale US voice, shared tenant services and cloud services.
