KELLEE COMMUNICATIONS GROUP PROVIDES LINKS FOR TRAVELERS ON THE MOVE

(Los Angeles – May 25, 2000) Pay phone units and pre-paid phone cards are only a few of the telephone conveniences now available for Los Angles International Airport (LAX) travelers. Thanks to KELLEE COMMUNICATIONS GROUP, INC., stations throughout LAX link visitors to both home and work.

Spurred by the deregulation of the telecommunications industry in the mid 1980’s, James R. Kelly, III, established KELLEE COMMUNICATIONS GROUP in 1986.

"In those days, there were many opportunities to get involved in this industry," stated Paula Ward, senior vice president. "The path that has proven to be right for us has been to provide quality communication equipment, such as pay telephone stations."

With offices now in Washington, D.C., Houston, San Francisco, Chicago, Atlanta and Los Angeles, what once only provided local pay- telephone services, in the Newark, New Jersey area, has now matured into a full service communications company.

The partnership with Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) and KELLEE COMMUNICATIONS first began in 1988.

"We heard about the Minority Vendors Program with LAWA in 1987," explained Jim Gamble, regional vice president. "The following year, our relationship with LAWA began and it has proven to be a very good one. They really get involved and make sure their goals are met in meaningful ways."

KELLEE COMMUNICATIONS currently has 22% of LAWA’s public communication equipment contract, and is always seeking to enhance the services they offer to the public. Travelers at LAX will soon be able to take advantage of pre-paid phone card services offered by KELLEE.

In an effort to provide competitive service with companies like Pac-Bell, KELLEE COMMUNICATIONS promotes training, screening of employees, and motivates their management staff with a continuous focus on client retention.

"What makes us unique is our attention to details," said Ward. "Our goal is to provide such quality service, that the average person will not know the difference between us and the larger companies."
