The contracts, which were signed with operators in Latin America, South East Asia and the Asia Pacific regions, will initially generate revenues with further license upgrades and recurring fees expected to generate additional revenues on an ongoing basis. The Company's revenue model is directly tied to the volume of MMS and other content traffic running through mobile networks.

These deals bring the total number of Adamind-enabled networks worldwide to approaching 100, compared with approximately 80 at the beginning of 2005.

The contracts include one new deal with a mobile network operator that has licensed Adamind's media adaptation software for the first time. The other three contracts announced today involve license upgrades purchased by existing mobile telecoms operators that have already embedded Adamind's software platform, MediaSpire, in their network infrastructure. In total, the four operators have a combined subscriber base of approximately 31 million.

The three license upgrades reflect the growing popularity of MMS and new rich content services such as video and music downloads. As a result, Adamind is seeing operators upgrade their network capacity to keep up with traffic volumes and to introduce new services. The Company's MediaSpire software enables network operators and content owners to adapt multimedia messages and other mobile content so that it can be experienced by subscribers across any mobile device or network.
