Syniverse Wins Mobitel Contract



    Syniverse Technologies (NYSE:SVR), a leading provider of
    technology and business solutions for the global telecommunications
    industry, today announced it has been selected by Mobitel Georgia, a
    mobile operator based in the Republic of Georgia and part of Russia's
    VimpelCom Group, to provide GSM data clearing and settlement services.

    Syniverse will provide Mobitel with its ACCESS S&E(R) GSM
    Clearinghouse Services to ensure accurate invoicing and settlement of
    Mobitel's roaming voice calls and wireless data events, and to
    simplify the exchange and management of information between the
    company and its roaming partners. With ACCESS S&E, Mobitel will
    immediately be able to offer roaming to its subscribers, build its
    competitive position in Georgia and, at the same time, generate
    revenue from incoming roamers who are using Mobitel's network.

    "Syniverse understands that roaming is a critical competitive
    factor and revenue generator for new operators," said Eugene Bergen
    Henegouwen, Executive Vice President and Managing Director for
    Syniverse, EMEA. "But at the same time, new operators have many other
    priorities and, therefore, need to rely on a partner who will guide
    them in the complex world of roaming. Syniverse provides the right
    balance between quality of service and roaming experience and, as a
    result, enables operators to quickly build expertise and deliver
    efficient services to their subscribers."

    Enhanced by Analyzer, Syniverse's feature-rich reporting and data
    mining tool, ACCESS S&E will deliver to Mobitel critical information
    the company can use to understand customer behavior and be better able
    to develop appropriate marketing strategies for its high-value
    customers who travel abroad.
