DeFi Mobile and DoubleU Join Forces to Market DeFi Global Access(TM) in the Middle East and North Africa Region

BEIRUT, Lebanon and SAN FRANCISCO, November 17 /PRNewswire/ --

- Partnership Significantly Broadens Global Adoption of DeFi's Innovative,
Business-Class Mobile Voice and Data Connection Service

Embracing one of the world's fastest growing economic and mobile
technology areas, DeFi Mobile (http://www.defimobile.com) and DoubleU
(http://www.doubleu.mobi) have forged a new partnership, positioning DoubleU
as the premier marketing and service provider for DeFi Mobile's offerings in
the Middle East and North African (MENA) region.

"The power of DeFi in the MENA region has great promise, as millions of
people in every country in the region expand their reliance on mobile
communication and business services," said Ayman Jomaa, Managing Partner,
DoubleU. "The unique and high-quality services of DeFi Mobile are very
attractive, especially the ability of DeFi to lower the amount of money
people are spending on their mobile technology while actually improving the
quality of their service. As well, the amazing features that are present in
the DeFi mobile application give it a very strong edge over many existing
applications that require mobile experts to install and operate."

DoubleU has a heritage of more than a decade of commercializing
technologies and content in the MENA region, including a database of more
than 80 million customers throughout the region. The DoubleU partnership
with DeFi will focus initially on 15 countries in the MENA region: Egypt,
Gambia, Ivory Coast, Jordan, The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), Kuwait, Iraq,
Lebanon, Liberia, Nigeria, Oman, Sierra Leone, Sudan, Syria and the United
Arab Emirates (UAE). This list will grow as the two companies scale this
partnership.

"The sophistication and success of DoubleU in the MENA region make them
an excellent and exciting partner for DeFi Mobile," said Jeff Rice, Chief
Executive Officer and co-Founder of DeFi Mobile. "DoubleU is respected by
governments, businesses and individuals in every country in which they
operate, giving our partnership a significant competitive advantage that will
quickly broaden the impact of DeFi in the MENA region."

DeFi Global Access is superior to standard mobile VoIP solutions in
several significant ways. By routing calls over its managed network, DeFi
delivers superior call quality, eliminating the "jitter" and dropped calls
synonymous with other VoIP operators. DeFi members also automatically
connect to commercial WiFi access points worldwide unlike DeFi competitors
who require their users to purchase WiFi separately, often from multiple
providers, and then to connect manually.

Customers of DeFi Mobile access the DeFi Mobile network via millions of

WiFi access points around the world, empowering them to place and receive
telephone calls and use data-connection services over the DeFi Mobile network.

By relying on DeFi Mobile's services, customers can avoid very high
long-distance and roaming fees often levied by cellular network providers.
DeFi customers enjoy business-class voice quality with important features and
applications including voicemail-to-email, caller-ID, call-forwarding,
call-hold and call-transfer -- all with feature-rich support. Another
convenience, DeFi Global Access members can continue to use their same
cellular provider phone numbers, because DeFi members use dual mode smart
phones (Nokia E & N series) that are both Wi-Fi and cellular capable.

About DoubleU

DoubleU is among the most respected and highest quality providers of
technology, applications, mobile content and consulting services in the MENA
region.
