 SECTION 1. 
 BACKGROUND, PURPOSE AND DURATION 

1.1 Effective Date. The Board adopted the Plan upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board to be effective
as of January 1, 2009. 
 1.2 Purposes of the Plan. The purposes of the Plan are to promote the success of the
Company’s business, advance the interests of the Company, attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, and provide additional incentives to selected key employees for outstanding performance. The
Plan permits the award of cash incentives and Restricted Stock Units to key employees as the Committee may determine. Upon attainment of Performance Goals for the Performance Period, Participants will receive a cash incentive payment, vested
Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Common Stock, and dividend equivalent rights (if any) with respect to vested Restricted Stock Units will be paid in cash. 
 1.3 Amendment and Restatement. USA Mobility, Inc. (the Parent), has acquired an additional subsidiary and seeks to clarify the applicability of the USA Mobility, Inc., Amended and Restated 2009
Long Term Incentive Plan. The USA Mobility, Inc. Amended and Restated 2009 Long Term Incentive Plan applies to USA Mobility Wireless, Inc and its Affiliate Metrocall Ventures, Inc. and its subsidiaries only, for the purpose of selecting participants
and attainment of Performance Goals. For clarity, for purposes of determining Performance Goals and the attainment of Performance Goals under the Plan, operating expenses and earnings from Amcom Software, Inc. shall not be included. Similarly,
employees of Amcom Software, Inc. shall not be eligible to participate under the plan.

the Company, monetarily or otherwise. No act or failure to act on the Participant’s part shall be deemed “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Participant not in good faith and without reasonable belief that such action
or omission was in the reasonable best interests of the Company. Disability as used herein means a condition or circumstance such that the Participant has become totally and permanently disabled as defined or described in the Company’s long

election of directors; or 
 (b) During any period of two (2) consecutive years commencing on or after the
Effective Date, the individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board or any individuals who would be Continuing Directors (as defined below) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof; or

maintenance expenses, (ii) selling and marketing expenses, and (iii) general and administrative expenses, but will not include (iv) severance costs, (v) product costs, (vi) depreciation, amortization and accretion expenses,
or (vii) expenses incurred in connection with acquisition due diligence and related activities. Achievement of the Operating Expense and EBIDTA goals will be given equal weight in determining Actual Awards. The Committee may revise the

SECTION 3. 

SELECTION OF PARTICIPANTS AND DETERMINATION OF AWARDS 
 3.1 Selection of Participants. The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall select the Employees who shall be Participants in the Plan and the Committee may, in its sole discretion, select
Employees to participate in the Plan at any time during any Performance Period. 
 3.2 Determination of Target Awards.
The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall establish a Target Award that may be earned by each Participant based on a multiple of the 2009 annual bonus for each Participant (or, with respect to Participants selected to participate in the Plan
after the commencement of a Performance Period, the annual bonus for the year in which the Participant commenced participation in the Plan). Fifty percent (50%) of the Target 

  
 4 








 
Award shall be paid in cash and fifty percent (50%) of the Target Award shall be paid in Restricted Stock Units. The number of Restricted Stock Units granted shall be based on the fair
market value of the Company’s Common Stock on December 31, 2008; provided, for purposes of determining the number of Restricted Stock Units granted to an Employee who becomes a Participant after the first day of the Performance Period, the
number of Restricted Stock Units may be determined, in the sole discretion of the Committee, based on (a) the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock on December 31, 2008, reduced by the value of any cash dividends or cash
distributions (regular or otherwise) that are paid with respect to the Company’s Common Stock from that date to the date of grant or (b) the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock on the date on which the Participant
commenced participation in the Plan. Restricted Stock Units shall be granted pursuant to the USA Mobility, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan. Further, if at any time the Common Stock ceases to be registered as a class of equity securities under the
Exchange Act, whether as a result of a Change of Control or otherwise, the Committee may in its sole discretion convert any Restricted Stock Units into a right to receive cash in lieu of shares of Common Stock based upon the fair market value of a
share of Common Stock at the time of or immediately prior to the time the Common Stock was no longer registered under the Exchange Act. 
 3.3 Award Agreements. Target Awards granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by Award Agreements. Award Agreements may be amended by the Committee with the consent of the germane Participant
from time to time and need not contain uniform provisions. 
 3.4 Bonus Pool. The Committee, in its sole discretion,
shall establish a Bonus Pool to pay cash awards. 
 3.5 Dividend Equivalent Rights. A Participant shall be entitled to
dividend equivalent rights with respect to Restricted Stock Units to the extent that any cash dividends or cash distributions (regular or otherwise) are paid with respect to the Company’s Common Stock during the Performance Period. The dividend
equivalent rights will be subject to the vesting restrictions and the other terms and conditions under this Plan that are applicable to the Restricted Stock Units until such time, if ever, as the Restricted Stock Units with respect to which the
dividend equivalent rights are paid vest. 
 SECTION 4. 

VESTING AND PAYMENT OF AWARDS 
 4.1 Attainment of Performance Goals. In order for Actual Awards to be earned and paid, the Company must attain the Performance Goals. If the Performance Goals are not met on or before the last day
of the Performance Period, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may direct the Company to pay less than the Target Award to reflect actual performance. 

  
 5 








 4.2 Vesting. 

(a) Target Awards shall vest upon the Committee’s reasonable determination that the Performance Goals have been
achieved. If the Performance Goals are met, Participants will be entitled to the vested portion of a Target Award. 
 (b) In the event of a Change of Control, vesting shall be accelerated as follows provided that the Company is on track to meet the objectives in the Company’s Long Range Plan as reasonably determined
by the Committee (as comprised immediately prior to the Change of Control). 
 (i) If a Change of Control occurs during either
of the first two years of the Performance Period, fifty percent (50%) of the Participant’s Target Award shall vest. 

(ii) If a Change of Control occurs during the third year of the Performance Period, seventy-five percent (75%) of the
Participant’s Target Award shall vest. 
 (iii) If a Change of Control occurs during the final year of the Performance
Period, the Participant’s Target Award shall vest in full. 
 With respect to an employee who becomes a Participant after January 15,
2009, the accelerated vesting described above will apply on a prorated basis based on the number of days worked during the Performance Period. For clarity, if an employee becomes a Participant in the second year of the Performance Period,
accelerated vesting of his Target Award (prorated as described in section 4.4, below) will be calculated as follows: fifty percent (50%) of a Participant’s unvested Target Award will be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is
the number of days the Employee was a Participant in the Plan during the Performance Period, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. 

(c) The Committee, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the time at which Target Awards will vest provided that the
Company is on target to meet the objectives in the Company’s Long Range Plan. 
 (d) All Actual Awards will
be paid at the time provided in Section 4.3. 
 4.3 Time and Form of Payment. 

(a) Each Actual Award, including dividend equivalent rights, shall be paid in cash (or its equivalent) in a single lump
sum and Common Stock pursuant to the Award Agreements, subject to any required withholding for income and employment taxes. 
 (b) Actual Awards will be paid on or after the third business day after the Company’s annual audit for fiscal year 2012 has been completed and the Company’s fiscal year 2012 annual report on
Form 10-K has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, but in no event later than December 31, 2013. 
 (c) Notwithstanding 4.3(b), in the event of a Participant’s death, the Participant’s estate will be eligible to receive an amount not greater than one-hundred percent


  
 6 








 
(100%) of the Participant’s Target Award, prorated to reflect the number of days he or she worked during the Performance Period, and such amount, which will be determined in the
Committee’s sole discretion, will be paid in the year following Participant’s death. For clarity, prorated awards will be calculated as follows: one-hundred percent (100%) of a Participant’s Target Award will be multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Participant was continuously providing services to the Company during the Performance Period through the date immediately prior to the Participant’s death, and the denominator of which
is the total number of days in the Performance Period. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Plan, no payments contemplated by this Plan will be paid during the six-month period following a Participant’s Separation from Service unless the Company determines, in its good faith judgment, that paying such amounts at the times indicated in
paragraphs 4.3(b) and (c) would not cause the Participant to incur an additional tax under Code section 409A, in which case the Actual Award shall be paid following the end of the six-month period. 

4.4 Proration or Forfeiture of Target Award. 

(a) Newly hired or promoted employees who are selected to participate in the Plan after January 15, 2009 will
participate in the Plan on a prorated basis based on the number of days worked during the Performance Period after being selected to participate in the Plan. The prorated award will be calculated as follows: one-hundred percent (100%) of a
Participant’s unvested Target Award will be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Employee was a Participant in the Plan during the Performance Period, and the denominator of which is the total number of
days in the Performance Period. 
 (b) If the Participant involuntarily Separates from Service without Cause or
due to disability, he or she will be eligible to receive a prorated Target Award if the Performance Goals are met provided that, in the event Participant involuntarily Separates from Service without Cause, he or she has executed a release, any
waiting period in connection with such release has expired, he or she has not exercised any rights to revoke the release and he or she has followed any other applicable and customary termination procedures, as determined by the Company in its sole
discretion. The unvested Target Award will be prorated to the date of Separation from Service, and the prorated award will be calculated as follows: one-hundred percent (100%) of a Participant’s unvested Target Award will be multiplied by
a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Participant was continuously providing services to the Company during the Performance Period through the date immediately prior to the Participant’s Separation from Service, and the
denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. Prorated awards will be paid to the Participant at the time provided in Sections 4.3. 

(c) Notwithstanding Section 4.4(b), any Participant who involuntarily Separates from Service without Cause during his
or her first year of participation in the Plan shall forfeit any right to receive an Actual Award. 
 (d) Any
Participant whose employment is terminated for Cause or voluntarily Separates from Service prior to the date Actual Awards are paid shall forfeit any right to receive an Actual Award. 

  
 7 








 SECTION 5. 
 ADMINISTRATION 
 5.1 Committee is the Administrator. The Plan shall
be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall consist of not less than two (2) members of the Board, and no member of the Committee shall be a Participant. The members of the Committee shall be appointed from time to time by, and serve
at the pleasure of, the Board. 
 5.2 Committee Authority. It shall be the duty of the Committee to administer the Plan
in accordance with the Plan’s provisions. The Committee shall have all powers and discretion necessary or appropriate to administer the Plan and to control its operation, including, but not limited to, the power to (a) determine which
Employees shall be granted awards, (b) prescribe the terms and conditions of awards, (c) interpret the Plan and the awards, (d) adopt such procedures and subplans as are necessary or appropriate to permit participation in the Plan by
Employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside of the United States, (e) adopt rules or principles for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith, and (f) interpret, amend or revoke
any such rules or principles. No member of the Committee shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to an award granted pursuant to this Plan. 

5.3 Decisions Binding. All determinations and decisions made by the Committee, the Board, and any delegate of the Committee
pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final, conclusive, and binding on all persons, and shall be given the maximum deference permitted by law. 
 5.4 Delegation by the Committee. The Committee, in its sole discretion and on such terms and conditions as it may provide, may delegate all or part of its authority and powers under the Plan to one
or more directors and/or officers of the Company. 
 SECTION 6. 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 6.1 Unsecured General Creditor. Actual Awards shall be paid solely from the general assets of the Company. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed to create a trust or to establish or evidence any
Participant’s claim of any right other than as an unsecured general creditor having the status of an employee of the Company or an Affiliate thereof with respect to any payment to which he or she may be entitled. 

6.2 Tax Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to withhold from, or in respect of, any payment to be made an amount sufficient
to satisfy all federal, state, local or foreign tax withholding requirements (including, but not limited to, the Participant’s FICA and Social Security obligations). The Committee may permit a Participant to satisfy all or part of his or her
tax withholding obligations by having the Company withhold an amount from any cash amounts otherwise due or to become due from the Company to the Participant or, with 

  
 8 








 
respect to Restricted Stock Units, having the Company withhold a number of shares of Common Stock that become vested having a fair market value equal to the tax withholding obligations. The fair
market value of the shares to be withheld or delivered will be determined as of the date that the taxes are required to be withheld. 
 6.3 No Rights as Employee. Nothing in the Plan or any documents relating to the Plan shall (a) confer on a Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company; (b) constitute
any contract or agreement of employment; or (c) interfere in any way with the Company’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time, with or without cause. For purposes of the Plan, transfer of employment of a
Participant between the Company and any one of its Affiliates (or between Affiliates) shall not be deemed a Separation from Service. 
 6.4 Participation. No Employee shall have the right to be selected to receive an award under this Plan. 
 6.5 Successors. This Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor to the Company and the Participant’s heirs, executors, administrators and legal
representatives. 
 6.6 Payment in the Event of Death. In the event of a Participant’s death, any vested benefits
remaining unpaid shall be paid to the Participant’s estate. 
 6.7 Nontransferability of Awards. No award granted
under the Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by the laws of descent and distribution. All rights with respect to an award granted to a Participant shall be available during his or her
lifetime only to the Participant. 
 SECTION 7. 
 AMENDMENT, TERMINATION AND DURATION 
 7.1 Amendment, Suspension or
Termination. The Board, in its sole discretion and without prior notice to Participants, may amend or terminate the Plan, or any part thereof, at any time and for any reason, to the extent such action will not cause adverse tax consequences to a
Participant under Code section 409A. Except as provided in Section 2.18, the amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall not, without the consent of the Participant, alter or materially impair any rights or obligations under any
Award Agreement. No award may be granted during any period of suspension or after termination of the Plan. 
 7.2 Duration of
the Plan. The Plan shall commence on January 1, 2009 and, subject to Section 7.1 (regarding the Board’s right to amend or terminate the Plan), shall remain in effect thereafter. 

  
 9 








 SECTION 8.
