enabling future growth as well.”

The WiMAX network deployment is the largest roll out to date in Taiwan and underscores Motorola’s leadership in the market. “We are pleased to win the contracts against the intense competition and it re-affirms the confidence that our customers have in our technology,” said Simon Leung, president of Motorola Asia Pacific. “With our WiMAX technology, FET can
provide an even stronger wireless and personal broadband service to its customers.”

This WiMax network will be rolled out in two phases. The first phase is expected to be completed in December 2007 and the second phase is expected to be completed in early 2008.
