At Home or Worldwide Individual or Corporation We Protect People and Assets We are GEOS We’re there when you need us…™ GEOS’ capability to provide real-time monitoring and response worldwide lies at the core of its services. We are the only commercial organization in the World that is an authorized Alerting Post for Emergency Satellite Beacons GEOS GLOBAL RESPONSE The GEOS International Emergency Response Coordination Center (IERCC) was officially founded in November 2007 with the amalgamation of various 24x7 monitoring centers that individually focused on travel safety, security services and monitoring for clients. The monitoring activities of these then disparate entities covered a number of services and technologies used for notification, tracking and emergency alerting. Independently these have been operating since the late 1990’s. With the introduction of the SPOT Satellite Messenger device from Globalstar in late 2007, the GEOS Alliance brought these together to form a common response coordination center, now known as the GEOS International Emergency Response Coordination Center or, simply, the IERCC. We pride ourselves on being deviceindependent in our mission in that we understand the capabilities of, and can respond to, activations from a wide range of devices. The IERCC staff know that each device has its purpose and that on most occasions these purposes do not overlap. “Our experience suggests that executives and employees can live and travel in most risk environments provided appropriate protective programs are delivered in a professional and effective manner” GEOS ALLIANCE™ OFFERS AN ENTIRE WORLD OF BEST-OF-BREED SERVICES WHICH ENCOMPASS SECURITY, SAFETY AND RELIABLE COMMUNICATIONS FOR CORPORATIONS AS WELL AS DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL TRAVELERS. THE GEOS PROGRAM IS DELIVERED THROUGH A FUSION OF STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNOLOGY WITH THE UNPARALLELED EXPERIENCE OF THE VERY BEST AND MOST RESPECTED SPECIALISTS IN THE FIELD OF INTERNATIONAL PERSONAL AND CORPORATE PROTECTION AND COMMUNICATIONS. 24x7x365 Operations The IERCC is housed in what some call the “most secure data center in the world” – at the IERCC, it is simply known as “The Bunker”. IERCC IT systems are housed in an underground nuclear bunker that was converted to a data center less than a decade ago. The facility has redundant electrical grids, internet “fiber” connectivity and is completely selfsufficient when the outside world “goes away”. The bunker and the building have ample generator backup, potable water supply from the underground wells, an air filtration system for chemical, biological and radiological Agents and multiple other systems and amenities commensurate with an around-the-clock operation within a disaster recovery center. The IERCC is staffed 24x7 365 days per year with Watch Standers, SAR Mission Coordinators and Duty Officers. The Officer-In-Charge and Deputy Officer-In-Charge are on call 24x7, with additional backup personnel also on scheduled standby. GEOS’ systems are used to protect both people and assets worldwide The GEOS PERSONAL PROTECTION SERVICES are delivered via four main product levels: GEOS Emergency Response Plus GEOS Emergency Response GEOS MediVac Plus GEOS SAR (Search & Rescue) GEOS Emergency Response Plus GEOS Emergency Response Plus combines the facilities and benefits of both the MediVac Plus and Emergency Response programs. Thus the Member has access to all of GEOS’ proactive and reactive services such as Knowledge Foundation, Global Emergency Monitoring, tracking, Search & Rescue, Medical Stabilization in hospital plus worldwide medical evacuation. GEOS GLOBAL GUARDIAN™ ASSET PROTECTION Since the inception of our GEOS SOS/911 and Search and Rescue programs, we have helped to save over 550 people worldwide. These are people who may otherwise not be alive today. Following demand from its partners, GEOS has applied its systems, its experience, its expertise and its professionalism in protecting and rescuing people to the protection and recovery of assets – vehicles, boats and aircraft etc. This GEOS service is called Global Guardian™. GEOS Emergency Response Provides a package of both reactive and proactive services worldwide. These include GEOS Knowledge Foundation, tracking, instant response to member-initiated distress signals or calls via GEOS’ Global Emergency Monitoring by the IERCC, Class 1 Alerts and Private Search and Rescue. GEOS MediVac Plus This is a single, life-saving source for medical evacuation and emergency assistance. The program provides up to US$1 million to pay for emergency medical evacuation expenses to transport the Member from the place of any incident to a first hospital and then to a hospital near the members home – wherever it may be in the World. The service is available if the Member is 99 miles or more away from home. The GEOS Asset Monitoring service provides both realtime monitoring and response interfaces. Real-time monitoring interfaces are both application-based and webbased whereas the response interface is application-based. This combination of services and applications is designed to provide maximum possible response speed, operational and display efficiency as well as greatly enhanced functionality. Once unauthorized movement or tampering signal is received and a response is required, the GEOS Asset Monitoring team maintains a continuous location track of the asset(s) involved and continuously updates and coordinates law enforcement, or appropriate response agency on the ground until the successful completion of the mission. Only once the asset has been located and retrieved, does the IERCC stand down and declare the incident closed. GEOS Search & Rescue (SAR) This very special Membership Program is available to fund additional SAR resources not available to the emergency services (including specialized personnel, special vehicles and equipment etc.) that may be necessary to aid in a Members’ rescue. The benefit gives the Member access to up to US$100,000 in any one year with a single incident limit of US$50,000. For full details please see: www.geosalliance.com/sar. There is also an enhanced SAR membership for Private Pilots. Emergencies, accidents and dangers are an unfortunate element of modern life. We may face unique risks if not properly prepared.

Since 2005, through GEOS™, it has become possible to offer this unique service to companies of all sizes and to private individuals.
