Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) Each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible at any time
(2) On November 12, 2004, the Reporting Person filed a Form 3 to report indirect beneficial ownership of 966,666 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock which were held by Tertio Telecoms Group, Ltd.
(3) The Reporting Person is now the indirect beneficial owner of 441,377 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of Evolving Systems, Inc. These shares were issued to the Reporting Person following the liquidation of Tertio Telecoms Group, Ltd. Because the Reporting Person had been attributed with indirect beneficial ownership of these shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, this transaction constitutes a mere change in the form of beneficial ownership.
(4) These securities are indirectly beneficially owned as a General Partner of Advent Partners LP, Advent Partners GPE III LP, Advent Partners (NA) GPE III LP and Advent International LP which in turn is the General Partner of Advent European Co-Investment Fund LP, Advent Euro-Italian Direct Investment Program LP, Advent Crown Fund II C.V., Digital Media & Communications II LP, Global Private Equity III-A LP, Global Private Equity III-B LP, Global Private Equity III-C LP, Advent PGGM Global LP and Advent Global Management LP which in turn is the General Partner of Advent Global GECC III LP.
(5) The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares because the reporting person's indirect pecuniary interest is subject to indeterminable future events.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.

Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
