Memorandum & Public Press Release

From:	Douglas M. Curtis - Chief Executive Officer
Date:	September 24, 2003

I am pleased to announce to all Sonitrol associates that effective immediately Gary LaPlant’s title is changed to President and Chief Operating Officer of Sonitrol. Along with this change, my role in the corporation will be as its Chief Executive Officer.

Gary’s role has grown over the last 6 years to include leadership in all day-to-day operations of our companies. This has allowed me to focus more on our strategic growth. Our expansion to the Providence market is the most recent example of how I can best contribute to Sonitrol.

The change in Gary’s title is in recognition of his overall contributions to Sonitrol’s market growth and operational responsibilities.

Gary joined Sonitrol in 1983 when we were a much smaller company in the security business. Twenty years ago, we were a business with 25 employees and less than 2 million in revenues. Under Gary’s coaching and leadership, Sonitrol has grown by serving our customers in both the security and telecommunications systems marketplace. Today we employ approximately 86 employees and successfully market our products in 3 States. Our projected revenues in 2004 will exceed 15 million.

Gary’s passion is evident in his personal commitment to serve our customers. The high performance team and business culture that exists at Sonitrol is the key to our future.

Please join me in congratulating Gary on his accomplishments and in wishing him continued success at Sonitrol in the future.
