SpectraLink Settles Shareholder Lawsuit

BOULDER, Colo. – Oct. 7, 2004 — SpectraLink Corporation (Nasdaq: SLNK), an industry pioneer in enterprise wireless communications, announced today that the consolidated class action securities lawsuits filed in February 2002 against SpectraLink and certain of its officers and directors have been settled. The federal judge presiding over the case granted final approval of the $1.5 million negotiated settlement. SpectraLink’s insurance carrier has covered the entire amount of the settlement.

“I am pleased to put this issue behind us,” said John Elms, SpectraLink president and CEO. “While the company continues to believe that its directors and officers acted properly at all times, by settling the suit within coverage limits, we have avoided further diversion of management time spent defending these claims and additional costs to the company. The settlement specifically provides that it is not to be construed as any admission or concession that any of the claims made by the plaintiffs were accurate or otherwise valid, or that SpectraLink or any of its officers, directors or employees acted improperly.”

The company remains in active negotiations to settle the two derivative actions related to this case. The defendants believe that these lawsuits are without merit and intend to vigorously defend themselves if a successful settlement cannot be reached.
