Internet Gold to Purchase Rights in Additional International Fiber Optic Lines
Wednesday November 16, 10:29 am ET
PETACH TIKVA, Israel, November 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Internet Gold
(NASDAQ: IGLD - News) today announced that it has amended its long-term Rights
Of Use (ROU) agreement with Barak I.T.C. (1995) Ltd increasing the number of
international fiber optic lines that it shall activate in the future. The
amendment improves Internet Gold's overall broadband capacity rights and reduces
the average price of its international fiber optic lines.
Mr. Eli Holztman, CEO of Internet Gold, commented that "the agreement enhances
Internet Gold's ability to provide first class high speed broadband connection
service in the medium as well as long term. We estimate that the high
penetration of Internet broadband connections in Israel combined with the
broader ADSL and cable connections recently introduced to the market will
require us to utilize this additional infrastructure in order to guarantee and
improve our services and maintain our dominant role in the market."
