    Intec signs InterconnecT agreement with Ukrainian Mobile Communications


London/Kiev, August 21st, 2003: Intec Telecom Systems, a global provider of
Operations Support Systems (OSS) for the telecommunications industry, today
announced it has signed an InterconnecTTM agreement with Ukrainian Mobile
Communications (UMC), the largest mobile operator in Ukraine. InterconnecT, the
world leader in domestic and international intercarrier billing, will be
deployed to enable UMC to accurately charge other carriers for using its network
facilities. The solution will also provide superior scalability to deal with
UMC's growing volume of calls, while minimising operational overhead in settling
with other carriers.

Commenting on the deal Kevin Adams, Intec's CEO said: "We are pleased to have
gained a new customer in Ukraine, one of the fastest growing mobile markets in
the world. This new agreement will help to integrate the billing operations of
UMC, while generating new market opportunities for one of Intec's core products,
especially in the fast-growing Eastern Europe market."

UMC is the leading mobile communications operator in the Ukraine, with 47%
market share. UMC boasts the widest coverage throughout the country, offering
the greatest choice of services and innovation. In 2002 the number of UMC
customers rose by about 60 percent. The company currently has 2.2 million
clients in a country of 48 million people.

"InterconnecT is a one-stop billing solution that will help increase UMC's
revenue potential and help manage its customer base," said Adams. "Its proven
flexibility and performance has many advantages over its interconnect billing
competitors, ensuring that the system can be tailored quickly and efficiently to
deal with anticipated growth in call traffic."

The InterconnecT family is the market leader in interconnect billing with 60 per
cent global market share and over 275 customer installations worldwide.
