Mobile Broadband Service Takes Off in Middle East

TORONTO, Canada, January 21 - Redknee (TSX: RKN), a leading provider of business-critical software and
solutions for communications service providers, is pleased to announce that a
leading service provider in the Middle East and Africa has increased its
investment in Redknee's data rating and charging solution driven by the
continued strong growth in demand for its mobile broadband services. This
expansion effort has more than doubled the operator's data charging capacity
and equips it with the ability to provide its data services to a larger
subscriber base. This is one of many EMEA operators leveraging Redknee's
systems to support their mobile broadband growth strategy.

Since the operator launched its mobile broadband services, the demand has
significantly outpaced original projections. According to Informa Telecoms &
Media, current industry projections for the Middle East see mobile data
revenues growing by 118 per cent between 2007 and 2012. As a result of
innovative new offerings such as prepaid mobile broadband, service uptake has
been dramatic and the network service provider needed to plan ahead for
future growth.

By leveraging Redknee's scalable Next Generation Rating and Charging
(NGRC), the service provider is able to manage the rating and charging of all
its data services, and offer a better subscriber experience by enabling
innovative service bundles and transparent pricing options that allow their
customers to track their spending in real-time. The service provider's mobile
broadband service, for example, enables subscribers to be notified of the
associated costs so that they can agree to the charges before they receive
the actual service, giving them full control and visibility of their mobile
experience, including pricing and payment options. The increased transparency
and control over their service usage and expenditures has been a key factor
in the success of the operator's mobile broadband offering.

"Redknee supports an increasing number of successful mobile service
providers in implementing their mobile broadband growth strategy. Redknee's
next generation data rating and charging systems enable the delivery of
popular, easy to understand mobile subscriber bundles and plans. Redknee is
pleased to be able to support this operator group from our new regional
centre in Lebanon, especially as we expand this relationship and help prepare
for further growth throughout the region." Lucas Skoczkowski, Redknee's CEO,
commented. "At Redknee, we are continuing to take market share in the
real-time rating and charging of data services and in the turnkey converged
billing market, which is in line with our growth strategy."
