MACH Appoints New CTO to Build its Mobile Exchange Solutions

LUXEMBOURG, February 5 - MACH, the leading provider of hub-based mobile communications
exchange solutions, today announced the appointment of Chris Burke to the new
position of Chief Technology Officer (CTO). This appointment signals the
beginning of a new phase of service development and provision as the world
leader in data and financial clearing responds to the ever-increasing pace of
change in the mobile telecommunications industry.

Announcing the appointment, the CEO and President of MACH, Guy
Dubois said:

"Our mission is to bring together the growing universe of
Communication Service Providers (CSPs), encompassing public and private
companies in the telecom, Internet, cable, satellite and managed services
businesses, enabling them to fulfil their mobile visions, quickly,
cost-effectively and to the highest standards of quality.

The marketplace is expanding and diversifying - evolving
technologies and new market entrants are increasing the range and scope of
products and services available. At the same time, growing consumer
sophistication and higher expectations are increasing demand for new
telecommunications services."

MACH's investment in innovative technology unifies this
diverging market, providing a single source of multi-lateral applications
that accelerate the accurate exchange of traffic, service delivery and
financial settlement between CSPs of every type, in any location.

The establishment of the CTO position and the appointment of a
uniquely-qualified CTO mark a major step forward in the realisation of a
major service implementation programme, the first steps of which will be
announced at the Mobile World Congress.

Chris Burke has joined MACH as Chief Technology Officer (CTO)
to achieve these objectives, bringing a wealth of international wireless and
IT expertise, having held both technical and general management positions as
MD EMEA for Research In Motion, CTO/CIO for Vodafone UK Ltd, CTO/CIO of Fixed
Line Service Provider, Energis, and Director R&D, Bell Northern Research
(formerly Nortel R&D), in a career spanning Europe and North America. In
addition to his responsibilities as CTO of MACH, Chris will continue to
supplement his wide-ranging industry experience in parallel - as a board
member, industry advisor and private investor.

Chris Burke has made the following statement:

"I am delighted to be joining MACH and very much looking
forward to meeting the challenges of the mobile industry of tomorrow in this
increasingly diversified market.

MACH's commitment to the success of its customers and its
response to the market forces driving our industry are based on one
unquestionable truth - success is built on rapid and consistent innovation.
