Nortel Networks, VoltDelta Announce Venture to Focus on Directory and
Operator Services

    NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 11, 2004--Nortel Networks
(NYSE:NT) (TSX:NT) and VoltDelta, a wholly owned subsidiary of Volt
Information Sciences, Inc. (NYSE:VOL) have entered into an agreement
under which Nortel Networks will contribute certain assets and
liabilities of its directory and operator services (DOS) business to
VoltDelta.
    In return, Nortel Networks will receive a minority equity interest
in VoltDelta, a leading provider of DOS in North America and Europe.
This transaction between the companies is expected to close during the
third quarter of calendar year 2004.
    Nortel Networks expects approximately 160 DOS employees in North
America and Mexico to join VoltDelta. Nortel Networks will retain its
Traffic Operator Position System (TOPS) business, based primarily in
Research Triangle Park, N.C.
    "By capitalizing on the synergies between the two companies, we
expect to be able to accelerate development, work more efficiently,
and increase interoperability between the products in our customers'
networks," said Sue Spradley, president, Wireline Networks, Nortel
Networks. "This will lead to faster time-to-market and help our
customers reduce the level of investment in future products."
    "VoltDelta is committed to providing comprehensive wireless and
wireline solutions that include the necessary databases, technology,
and human capital that enable carriers to deploy state-of-the-art,
cost competitive operator services," said Joe DiAngelo, president,
VoltDelta. "We will work closely with Nortel Networks to maintain
quality and efficiency and to provide seamless service to all of
Nortel Networks directory and operator assistance customers, many of
which are also existing VoltDelta customers."
    VoltDelta's DOS business will provide continued focus and
investment to develop next generation directory assistance voice over
packet based solutions - particularly for the wireless market - to
meet rapidly evolving customer requirements. The venture will provide
existing and future DOS customers with new solutions, giving customers
access to an expanded suite of products, content and enhanced
services.

experience have enabled VoltDelta to meet evolving market requirements
