1     Introduction

      Sicap Ltd provides to EuroTel a standard service for the SICAP(R) PPB, VCA       and OTA modules.

      EuroTel can also request additional support which is not part of the       offered standard support and is subject to a separate quotation and       ordering procedure as described in Article 5.

1.1   Standard service

      The following services are included for the SICAP(R) PPB, VCA and OTA       modules

      o     HotLine support (resolving of incidents)

      o     20 hours telephone support (during office hours) per month. This             support includes every necessary support for the SICAP(R) PPB, VCA             and OTA (no accumulation of unused hours)

      o     Remote support via ISDN line (establishment and communication costs             to be paid by customer). Security can be guaranteed under the             following conditions: Firewall, only outgoing connections allowed

      o     Change Management

      The following service is charged:

      o     Installation costs if on-site support is required

                                                                    [LOGO] sicap
