VODAFONE AND DIGICEL SIGN 3 YEAR PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

Partnership Means Customers can seamlessly Access their Services as they Travel on Each Others’ Network and More Synergies between the Two Operators

FEBRUARY 6^th, 2007 – LONDON, UK AND KINGSTON, JAMAICA: Vodafone and Digicel have announced today a partnership agreement to offer new roaming capabilities across Digicel’s markets in the Caribbean and Bermuda and Vodafone’s global network.  The agreement also extends to Digicel’s sister operation in Samoa.

In addition, under the terms of the agreement Vodafone and Digicel will become preferred roaming partners offering customers a seamless world-class mobile experience whilst they travel on each others’ network.

Both Vodafone and Digicel will market co-branded roaming capabilities, offering pre-paid and post-paid customers easy access to their voice mail and customer service using their standard short codes, as well as better value for both voice and data services. With some variation from market to market, initial services available will include Voice and GPRS Roaming services with plans in place to shortly include Top Up offerings. 

For Digicel, which also has roaming agreements with 245 partners in 130 countries around the world, the partnership allows the company to expand the number of countries where it offers pre-paid roaming.

The companies will aim to work together to jointly develop innovative products and services as well as purchase handsets, creating cost benefits, greater value and more solutions for customers.  Vodafone and Digicel will co-operate in marketing and delivering mobile services to multi-national corporate customers.

Matthias Jungemann, Partner Markets Director at Vodafone, said, “Our agreement with Digicel means that Vodafone customers can now access their services while travelling across the Caribbean.  No other mobile operator can offer the kind of global footprint Vodafone now has for easy to use, great value roaming services.  Including Digicel, Vodafone’s branded roaming services will be now available in 81 countries.

“Given Digicel’s footprint in the region, the company was a clear choice as our preferred roaming partner for the Caribbean. We look forward to extending the benefits of this partnership, not only in delivering our innovative roaming capabilities, but also working together in how we can purchase smarter and how we can deliver a superior mobile service for multi-national corporate customers.”

CEO of Digicel Group, Colm Delves added, “Today is a very significant day for both Digicel and Vodafone and the first step of an exciting relationship. Our customers in the Caribbean and Bermuda will now have access to a wider spectrum of products and services especially when they travel abroad. With this partnership, we are once again bringing our markets to another level in terms of breadth and depth of service offering.”

He added, "Co-branding will further boost the brand reach of both partners globally. We are bringing together the Digicel and Vodafone names, which in turn will increase roaming traffic by gaining access to more international travellers."

VODAFONE UK AND ORANGE UK PROPOSE RADIO ACCESS NETWORK SHARE

08 Feb 2007. London. VODAFONE UK and ORANGE UK today announce their intention to share Radio Access Networks (RANs), delivering long-term benefits to customers.

The two companies have signed non-binding heads of terms outlining the principles of sharing their respective RANs. The proposal allows the two companies to:

·      Continue managing their own traffic independently

·      Retain full responsibility for the quality of service they offer their respective customers

·      Remain competitors in the UK mobile wholesale and retail markets

The project outlines plans for the two RANs to be combined over a number of years and covers both existing and new build of the companies’ 3G RANs.  For 2G, the heads of terms commits to exploring opportunities as technical solutions become available.

Bernard Ghillebaert, CEO of Orange UK, said: “This represents an important step in the evolution of the UK mobile market.  As the industry matures we must look at new ways to serve our customers and this provides a common sense approach to network roll out and management in the twenty-first century.”

Nick Read, CEO of Vodafone UK, adds: “This proposal is industry leading and will enable the two companies to remain vigorously competitive against each other and the market, while realising the proven benefits of network sharing, notably faster roll out of high speed mobile services in the future and the earlier introduction of innovative products.”

Shared efficiencies and reduced duplication

Long-term shared efficiencies are likely to be realised by jointly managing and maintaining the RANs, as well as the future roll out of RANs of both companies.  By combining the two RANs, the long-term intention is to reduce the total number of masts needed in the future to enable customers to use their mobile devices.  The combined RANs would therefore have a smaller environmental footprint.  From a business perspective, there will be reduced capital and operating expenditure arising from the fewer number of sites required.  These efficiencies will enable more investment in innovative products and services, benefiting customers.

Better mobile coverage for over 30 million* customers

Customers will benefit from the long-term improvements to coverage. The coverage of both operators would eventually be combined to offer improved and complementary coverage, particularly in rural areas.  As a result customers would be able to use their phones in more places across the UK.  RAN sharing will ensure that both companies remain committed to the faster roll out of high speed services.

Continued competition and differentiation in the UK mobile market

Competition between the two companies will be unchanged as the core network would remain within the control of each company, enabling each operator to continue offering differentiated products, services and prices within the UK market.  Some specific areas of coverage, such as corporate customer in-building coverage schemes, would remain outside the share and each company will remain free to add additional coverage for its sole use over and above the combined RAN.

Orange UK and Vodafone UK are currently in discussions regarding the appropriate vehicle within which to manage, maintain and build the radio access network for both companies.  The structure and terms of any agreement are expected to be determined in the coming months.  Vodafone UK’s Chief Technical Officer, Paul Wybrow, and, Orange UK’s VP of Business Support, Steve Aumayer, are to lead this process. 

* combined total of Vodafone UK and Orange UK customers

NOTES TO EDITORS

Principles of RAN sharing:  The form of network sharing proposed by the parties relates only to the radio access part of the network (the RAN).  The RAN includes mast, antenna, sites, site support cabinet and power supply as well as antennae, combiners and transmission links, Nodes B (3G), BTS (2G) and the radio network controllers which are linked to the core network.  The latest developments in technology mean that base stations can now be configured to transmit more than one operator’s signal, which leaves each operator free to determine its own service offering using its own spectrum. 

About Orange UK

As at the end of December 2006, Orange UK had over 17 million customers (15.3 million active mobile customers and over 2 million internet customers). Orange is a key brand of the France Telecom Group, providing mobile, broadband, fixed, business and entertainment services across Europe. It is one of the world’s leading telecommunications operators with more than 153 million customers on five continents.

About Vodafone UK

Vodafone UK has 16.9 million customers and is part of the world’s largest mobile community offering a wide range of voice and data communications.

VODAFONE LIVE! TO OFFER GOOGLEä MAPS FOR MOBILE ALONGSIDE GOOGLE SEARCH

Vodafone and Google intend to develop a location-based version of Google Maps for mobile to add to the growing portfolio of internet-based services that are enhancing the mobile experience for Vodafone customers.

Google Maps for mobile, a downloadable java application, is expected to offer customers in selected markets easy-to-use maps and local listings, as well as local search and navigation capabilities. Customers will be able to enjoy unlimited use of Google Maps for mobile, subject to Vodafone data tariffs.

Google and Vodafone are working together to ensure the service provides customers on selected handsets with an automatic user-location capability.

Today’s announcement is another example of how Vodafone is working to bring a suite of the most popular brands and services from the internet to the mobile phone. By integrating Google Maps for mobile into its services, Vodafone intends to offer customers a powerful tool to help them find local services wherever they are.

“Vodafone sees Google Maps as a new milestone in the relationship that both companies are developing. It is a prime example of how Vodafone, through its location service and distribution scale, can complement Google's products and unlock mass-market access to exciting services,” said Frank Rovekamp, Global Chief Marketing Officer of Vodafone.

“Our goal as a company is to help people find information they're looking for, so giving Vodafone customers the chance to find out where they are going while on the move is a very important step. Google Maps for mobile gives people an easy way of finding directions via a mobile phone. I am delighted that Vodafone intends to offer it to their customers. It is one example of how our two companies are working together on technology that helps people manage information online and on the go,” said Nikesh Arora, Vice President, EMEA Operations, Google.

The announcement comes as Vodafone introduces functionality in various markets to enable its customers to search for and find information they are looking for while on the move, with the integration of Google search technology into its mobile service.

The search service launched in Hungary in December 2006 and is aimed to be rolled out in other key European markets throughout the rest of the year.

Forming part of Vodafone’s multimedia portal Vodafone live!, search technology from Google will enable customers to access both on-portal and off-portal sites in the wider mobile internet. 

The integration of Google technology also means an enhanced internet experience, making off-portal pages more accessible and relevant for handset screen sizes. Customers will therefore only be presented with services, such as games, that are compatible with their handsets.

VODAFONE AND CITIGROUP ANNOUNCE WORLDWIDE MOBILE FINANCIAL REMITTANCE VENTURE

Vodafone and Citigroup Corporate and Investment Banking’s Global Transaction Services business today announce their plan to launch a Vodafone-branded mobile-based international money transfer service targeting the global remittance market worldwide.  The new service will provide senders and receivers of money with a superior method for sending money home that is convenient, cost-effective, secure, transparent, and easy to use. 

This initiative couples Vodafone’s global reach, brand recognition and operational mobile money transfer service with Citigroup’s worldwide network, unrivalled international payments capabilities and existing global remittance solution.  It builds upon Vodafone’s recent successful pilot of the M-PESA mobile money transfer service by its affiliate in Kenya, Safaricom.

It is anticipated that Vodafone customers in the United Kingdom will have the first opportunity to use the service to send money to Kenya on a trial basis and both parties plan to launch commercially, with a focus on Eastern European and Asian markets, such as Poland and India, in the near future.

Uniquely, the product being developed will allow the remitter and the beneficiary to choose from a range of options as to how the money is sent and received.  The sender can initiate the transfer using either a mobile phone or a secure Internet website to give instructions on where to send the funds.  The funds will be able to be received in a bank or through the receiver’s mobile phone in the form of a voucher and secure PIN that will enable the receiver to redeem the cash at a wide range of outlets, typically the airtime distribution points operated by the in-country mobile network service provider.  For these latter services, the beneficiary of funds does not need to have a bank account, will have a wide range of locations to collect the funds and only has to be in the possession of a mobile phone that can receive an SMS on any mobile network.  

Enabling money to be transferred internationally from person to person using mobile technology is set to greatly assist the flow of funds from migrant workers back to their families.  Migrant remittance is an important source of income in many developing countries - indeed the United Nations estimates that it involves some 191 million migrants and the World Bank estimates it has a total annual worldwide value of USD268 billion.  For some individual recipient countries remittances can be as high as a third of GDP. 

Alan Harper, Director for Group Strategy and New Business, at Vodafone said: “This agreement with Citigroup has the potential to create a step change in global remittance services and one in which the mobile service provider plays a central role.  Vodafone’s international brand recognition and our successful trial of M-PESA in Kenya combined with Citigroup’s global remittance service and international financial reach, enables us to offer an extremely competitive product compared to conventional remittance solutions available today.”

Michael Joseph, CEO of Safaricom in Kenya said: “Safaricom and Vodafone’s M-PESA mobile money transfer service is an example of Africa leading the world in the advancement of mobile technology and its uses.  In Kenya, we have been testing the response to mobile-based payments services and we believe that there is a great deal to be gained for the consumer as well as for mobile and financial sector companies.  This opportunity with Vodafone and Citigroup to extend the offering to support international remittances can benefit not only Kenyans, but also the greater population of migrant workers across the world.”

Francesco Vanni d'Archirafi, Region Head of Citigroup Global Transaction Services for Europe, Middle East and Africa and Chairman of Citibank Europe plc, said: "The combination of Vodafone's international mobile network and Citigroup's global footprint will create a solution that will benefit communities that use money transfer services worldwide.  We are proud to be using our global distribution network and cross-border payment capabilities to provide migrant workers with a cheaper and more secure way of sending money."

About M-PESA

Vodafone’s M-PESA, a mobile financial remittance product which allows users to send credit, which can be redeemed as cash at specified outlets, is already operational in Kenya, and Vodafone is currently beginning a cross-border trial between the UK and Kenya. In addition, the M-PESA product is also being trialled in Afghanistan.  M-PESA was initially developed using part funding from the UK Government Department for International Development (DFID) under the Financial Deepening Challenge Fund Initiative.

About the Global Remittance Industry

According to the World Bank, recorded remittances sent home by migrants from developing countries are expected to reach $199 billion in 2006, up from $188 billion in 2005, and more than double the level in 2001.  Worldwide flows of remittances, including those to high-income countries, are estimated to have to grown to $268 billion in 2006.

In the World Bank report: “General Principles for International Remittance Services”, March 2006, the report states in the Introduction and Executive Summary:

“The flow of funds from migrant workers back to their families in their home country is an important source of income in many developing economies. The recipients often depend on remittances to cover day-to-day living expenses, to provide a cushion against emergencies or, in some cases, as funds for making small investments.

“For some individual recipient countries, remittances can be as high as a third of GDP. Remittances also now account for about a third of total global external finance; moreover, the flow of remittances seems to be significantly more stable than that of other forms of external finance.

“However, remittances can be expensive relative to the often low incomes of migrant workers and to the rather small amounts sent (typically no more than a few hundred dollars or its equivalent at a time). Also, it may not be easy for migrants to access remittance services if they do not speak the local language or do not have the necessary documentation, while the relatively undeveloped financial infrastructure in some countries may make it difficult for recipients to collect the remittances. In some cases, the services are unreliable, particularly concerning the time taken for the funds to be transferred.”

VODAFONE SIGNS HANDSET PROCUREMENT AGREEMENT WITH CHINA’S ZTE

Vodafone Group and ZTE Corporation announced today a handset procurement agreement which will see the Chinese company produce a range of Vodafone-only branded, ultra-low cost handsets for sale across Vodafone’s Markets.

The handsets will only carry the Vodafone name, adding to the range of devices which Vodafone offers branded in this way for the consumer market, and marks the continuation of Vodafone’s Original Design Manufacturer strategy, which is intended to bring to market high-quality and low-cost devices under the Vodafone name.

Vodafone anticipates offering the first Vodafone-branded, ZTE-manufactured handset, a 2G ultra-low cost device, created particularly for sale in Emerging Markets, in the second quarter of 2007.

Jens Schulte-Bockum, Vodafone’s Global Director of Terminals said: “Vodafone’s Original Design Manufacturer strategy is intended to use Vodafone’s size and purchasing power to engage with the best white label handset makers and then use the power of the Vodafone brand to bring their products to market.

SAFARICOM & VODAFONE LAUNCH M-PESA, A NEW MOBILE PAYMENT SERVICE

Safaricom, the leading mobile communications provider in Kenya, is pleased to announce the launch of M-PESA, an innovative new mobile payment solution that enables customers to complete simple financial transactions by mobile phone.  M-PESA has been developed by Vodafone, the world’s leading mobile telecommunications group, with the pilot in Kenya operated by Safaricom.

M-PESA is aimed at mobile customers who do not have a bank account, typically because they do not have access to a bank or because they do not have sufficient income to justify a bank account.  All they need to do is register at an authorised M-PESA Agent by providing their Safaricom mobile number and their identification card.  Once registered, customers can:

·      Put money into their account by depositing cash at a local Agent

·      Send money to other mobile phone users by SMS instruction, even if they are not Safaricom subscribers.

·      Withdraw cash at local a Agent

·      Buy Safaricom airtime for themselves or other subscribers

Only Safaricom subscribers can send M-PESA, but anyone who can receive an sms can receive money by M-PESA.  Customers do not need to have a bank account to benefit from M-PESA services.

Cash is paid into M-PESA and withdrawn at M-PESA Agent outlets.  These outlets are typically local Safaricom Dealers, but can also be other kinds of retailer such as petrol stations, supermarkets and local shops.  There is currently a large network of M-PESA Agents across Kenya who have been trained to use the service.  It is planned to grow this network significantly in the coming months.

The M-PESA service was originally created as a pilot funded jointly by Vodafone and the UK Department for International Development [DFID] Financial Deepening Challenge Fund.  The pilot ran for over 6 months in Kenya from October 2005 in partnership with Faulu Kenya, a local Microfinance Institution.

Michael Joseph, CEO of Safaricom, said: “Safaricom and Vodafone’s M-PESA mobile money transfer service is an example of Kenya leading the way in the advancement of mobile technology and its uses.  Following the very positive response by consumers to the pilot, we believe that there is a great deal to be gained for Kenyan consumers as well as for mobile and financial sector companies”.

Gavin Darby, CEO Non European Affiliates at Vodafone, added: “Now we have officially launched M-PESA in Kenya, we look forward to taking the service international. Our announcement yesterday of Vodafone’s international money remittance venture with Citigroup to assist migrant workers send money home conveniently and safely using mobile technology, would not be possible without the Kenya trials which have led to the successful launch of M-PESA.”

VODAFONE AND YAHOO! TO EXTEND THEIR PARTNERSHIP IN EUROPE

Partners to forge closer ties to create a seamless communications experience between
the PC and mobile

Vodafone and Yahoo! have agreed to extend their partnership to bring their instant messaging services to both the mobile phone and PC, providing customers with a seamless mobile Internet communications experience.

The integrated communications services will be based on a co-branded application that can work on both PCs and mobile devices. As a result, customers will be able to send messages from PC to mobile and vice versa, while enjoying the benefits of easy access to their contacts and friends.

The new service means that customers will be able to use the address book functionality  to see whether their friends are online and exchange messages when these friends are either on their PC or mobile devices. 

“Vodafone announced last year that we would seek to bring the PC and mobile worlds together for our customers, offering them the best of Internet communications on the mobile,” said Frank H Rövekamp, Global Chief Marketing Officer, Vodafone.  “The partnership of two of the biggest names from the worlds of mobile and Internet is going to greatly accelerate the speed at which customers will receive a seamless communications experience between their PCs and mobiles.”

“This partnership is significant as mobile phones play an important role in how customers communicate and stay connected to their Internet community,” said Marco Boerries, Senior Vice President, Connected Life, Yahoo!. “The combined expertise of Vodafone and Yahoo! means that we will be able to deliver an exciting and relevant experience to consumers across both their mobile and PC.”

Vodafone and Yahoo! intend to further develop their partnership by exploring the creation of next generation communication services. The companies first established their partnership in November 2006 when Vodafone named Yahoo! their exclusive display advertising partner in the UK.  Together the companies are creating an innovative mobile advertising business to enhance the customer experience on mobile phones while providing both companies with a new revenue stream.

MICROSOFT AND VODAFONE TO LAUNCH ENHANCED INSTANT MESSAGING SERVICE FOR PC AND MOBILE USE

Barcelona, 13 February 2007: Vodafone and Microsoft today announced they are working together to deliver an enhanced co-branded and seamless Instant Messaging (IM) service that can be accessed from both the PC and mobile phone. The world’s biggest IM community and biggest Mobile Messaging community will together provide a next generation messaging service based on the Windows Live Messenger platform. 

The new IM service will provide millions of customers with enhanced IM communication opportunities and will be launched in select European markets later this year. 

The new service means that customers will be able to use the address book functionality and see the “presence” of their Messenger contacts and exchange messages when these contacts are either on their PC or mobile devices. 

The co-branded Instant Messenger experience will be available on a wide range of Vodafone consumer handsets, including those on the Windows Mobile platform, bringing together customers of other Mobile Network Operator IM networks, consistent with last year’s 3GSM announcement (June 2006) on Personal IM .

“Microsoft - through our Windows Live communication platform - and Vodafone are working together to enhance messaging between mobile phones and PCs, ultimately delivering a richer experience to customers,” said Brian Arbogast, corporate vice president of the Windows Live Developer and Communications Platform group at Microsoft Corp. “By way of this launch, we are expanding our customers’ ability to make smart communication choices and connect instantly via IM to the people they care about most whether they are on their phone or on their PC.”   

“We have brought together two of the world’s largest messaging communities with a co-branded seamless PC-to-mobile instant messaging service. Vodafone customers will be able to communicate whenever and wherever they want, using IM and its additional service benefits, make the most of their time with mobile and PC, and friends and family,” said Frank H Rövekamp, Global Chief Marketing Officer for Vodafone Group.

He continued: “IM is a growing part of the increasingly important mobile messaging market. By bringing our collective customers together, we’ll deliver more options about how to stay in touch when messaging.”

In June 2005, Vodafone and Microsoft announced the signing of a strategic alliance agreement involving the interconnection of existing instant messaging services from both companies. Today’s announcement is of a new, co-branded and converged instant messaging offering and underscores Vodafone and Microsoft’s commitment to collaborating to provide services that are even more innovative by accelerating the convergence of telecommunications services, information technology and multimedia.
