03/15/2013 Nemko Canada Inc 303 River Road Ottawa, Ontario, Canada K1V 1H2 Attn: Director of Certification Our communications 400MHz radios that are in our parking metering system do not co-transmit with our cellular radio. Our secure data is only transmitted after transactions have been made and uploaded after normal parking metered monitoring times of day. The main board 400MHz communication radio that resides in our upper head assembly within the parking meter housing and serves as our receiver and the cash canister which is located below this housed assembly functions as a transmitter.
