Brazil Mobile Service Provider Expands to Worldwide Markets and Selects Pareteum’s Global Cloud

Adds $1 Million to 36-Month Contractual Revenue Backlog

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – January 24, 2018 – Pareteum Corporation (NYSE American: TEUM), (“Pareteum” or the “Company”), the rapidly growing Cloud Communications Platform company, today announced that it has been awarded a new contract from an established Brazil based Mobile Virtual Network Operator to expand its worldwide reach. Once the service is launched, Pareteum will receive a platform support fee for each subscriber plus fees for monthly platform services. The contract is scheduled to add $1,000,000 to Pareteum’s revenue backlog over a 36 month period, with contract deployment expected in the second quarter of 2018.

Currently, the customer sells hundreds of thousands of mobile cards per year that are required to be inserted into a subscribers existing phone. Once enabled by Pareteum’s Global Cloud Solution, this experienced communications services provider will extend its Mobile Virtual Network Operations (MVNO) by providing Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) in conjunction with worldwide mobile airtime connectivity.

Pareteum’s newest customer will be enabled to sell cross border global mobile cards, holistically managed via one solitary interface through the Pareteum platform. Servicing the global South American traveler, this MVNO will be powered to focus on their customer acquisition initiatives and launch new distribution centers around the world. End users will be able to acquire the cross border global mobile cards from airport based retail stores within Brazil and other South American countries, as well as the United States. The Pareteum platform will empower expanded connectivity direct to the phone, without the need to insert an additional card for cross border global connectivity.

“We are pleased to be chosen to help transform this well-known South American telecommunications provider and help them access and control new markets for their customers around the world. Once fully ramped they will be servicing thousands of recurring subscribers per month on Pareteum’s Global Cloud Platform,” commented Pareteum CEO, Vic Bozzo.

Hal Turner, Executive Chairman and Principal Executive Officer at Pareteum stated, “TEUM’s newest Brazilian agreement is strong evidence of the opportunities in Latin America ( LATAM), and Brazil in particular. Pareteum’s cost reducing and revenue expanding Global Cloud Platform and worldwide mobile network together deliver ease of use, fast and smooth service establishment, and assurance for our customer, enabling them to focus on sales, marketing and adding subscriber connections.”

The global MVNO market is expected to reach $73.2 billion by 2020, according to Grand View Research.
