10 April 2008

Mobile Tornado, one of the world leaders in convergent, instant communications, announces that Partner Communications Company Limited, has signed an agreement to enrich its existing "Push to Talk" ('PTT') offering. Mobile Tornado is providing its full integrated solution to Partner Communications Company Limited's Israel network infrastructure to add and expand in the future additional new services.

This PTT service will be targeted at the business user who requires fast and constant communication links with work teams. The service will allow the establishment of half-duplex voice links where one person speaks and the other listens, either for groups or one to one, at the touch of a button. The Mobile Tornado solution also has enhanced 'Presence' capability, the only one of its kind in the market, allowing the user to know the status of the phone of the person being called facilitating more efficient and effective communication between users.

Jeremy Fenn, Managing Director at Mobile Tornado said:
"We are extremely proud and pleased to announce this managed services agreement that Partner Communications Israel have entrusted us with. Partner Communications are a market leader in the launch of new services in Israel. They were pioneers in the introduction of SMS, EDGE, Worldwide Roaming, and now the launch of PTT over Cellular, that will facilitate new communication solutions to an important group of Israeli users. Our technology platform combined with the experience of Partner Communications on sales and marketing should facilitate the establishment of a significant market share in the PTT market in Israel. This deal further strengthens our position as a world leader in providing instant communication solutions to the leading telecommunication operators in the world"

Alon Berman CTO of Partner Communications Company Ltd. said:
"Partner Communications keeps leading the launch of new services in Israel. We continue to innovate and enrich our PTT over Cellular offering. With Mobile Tornado's platform, we seek to continue responding to the needs of the corporate sector by offering the best service of voice over GSM/UMTS technology in Israel with a wider variety of handsets."
