LEUVEN, Belgium - December 23, 2008 - Option N.V. (EURONEXT Brussels: OPTI; OTC: OPNVY), the wireless technology company, today announced a significant strengthening of its management and organizational structure with the appointment of Philippe Rogge as the company's first Chief Operating Officer.



Philippe joins Option from Belgacom Group where he was most recently Vice President Business Development & Planning. During seven years at Belgium's largest telecommunications company, Philippe held a series of senior strategic and operational roles all reporting to members of the Group's Executive Management Committee. Earlier in his career, he gained considerable financial management and IT experience in the shipping and petro-chemical industries.



Philippe earned his masters degree from the University of Ghent and also holds post-graduate qualifications from the Vlerick School of Management and INSEAD. In his leisure time, Philippe is a keen yachtsman who represented Belgium on an international level. He combines his organizational skills with his passion for sport as a board member of the Belgian National Olympic Committee.



Philippe will formally join Option in January 2009 and will report directly to the CEO. He will oversee Sales, Operations and Marketing and will assume overall responsibility for the delivery of all aspects of Option's value proposition to the wireless markets.



"This is a really exciting time to be joining a global company that is at the forefront of the design, development and manufacture of the solutions that underpin the rapidly expanding mobile broadband industry," said Philippe Rogge.



"This is a natural step in the further evolution of the company. Option has grown to a size where our Board of Directors feel a clearer separation between strategic and operational responsibilities will truly benefit our customers, investors and employees," said Option CEO, Jan Callewaert. "This senior appointment demonstrates our confidence in Option's prospects while providing extra management bandwidth for myself to work on the future strategy of the company and to evaluate new opportunities."

LEUVEN, België - 23 december 2008 - Option N.V. (EURONEXT Brussel: OPTI; OTC: OPNVY), de specialist op het vlak van draadloze communicatie, maakt vandaag bekend dat het een belangrijke versterking van zijn management- en organisatiestructuur heeft doorgevoerd met de benoeming van Philippe Rogge als eerste Chief Operating Officer van het bedrijf.

Philippe werkte voorheen bij de Belgacom Group, waar hij tot voor kort Vice President Business Development & Planning was. Tijdens zijn zeven jaar bij het grootste telecommunicatiebedrijf van België bekleedde hij een aantal strategische en operationele functies, waarbij hij steeds rapporteerde aan leden van het directiecomité van het bedrijf. Daarvoor verwierf hij ervaring op het vlak van financieel management en IT binnen de shipping- en petrochemische industrie.

Philippe studeerde af aan de Universiteit Gent en behaalde postacademische diploma's aan de Vlerick School of Management en INSEAD. In zijn vrije tijd is Philippe een verwoed zeiler en vertegenwoordigde hij België hiervoor op internationaal niveau. Hij combineert zijn organisatorische vaardigheden met zijn passie voor sport als lid van de Raad van Bestuur van het Belgisch Olympisch en Interfederaal Comité (BOIC).

Philippe zal in dienst treden bij Option in januari 2009 en rechtstreeks naar de CEO rapporteren. Hij zal Sales, Operations en Marketing aansturen en verantwoordelijk zijn voor het dagelijkse management dat er voor moet zorgen dat Option alle aspecten van haar "value proposition" naar de draadloze markten kan realiseren.

"Dit is een uitstekend moment om te gaan werken voor een bedrijf dat wereldwijd actief is en zich op het voorplan bevindt van het design, de ontwikkeling en de productie van oplossingen die het fundament vormen van de snel wijzigende markt van mobiel breedband", zegt Philippe Rogge.

"Dit is een natuurlijke stap in de verdere evolutie van het bedrijf. Option is gegroeid tot een niveau waarvan onze Raad van Bestuur van oordeel is dat een duidelijkere scheiding tussen strategische en operationele verantwoordelijkheden ten goede zal komen aan onze klanten, onze investeerders en ons personeel", zegt Jan Callewaert, CEO van Option. "De benoeming van deze competente en ervaren professional toont ons vertrouwen in het marktpotentieel van Option, terwijl het versterken van het managementteam mijzelf de kans geeft om de toekomststrategie van het bedrijf verder uit te werken en nieuwe mogelijkheden te evalueren."

LEUVEN, België – 15 december 2008 – Option N.V. (EURONEXT Brussel: OPTI; OTC: OPNVY), de specialist op het vlak van draadloze communicatie, kondigde vandaag aan dat T-Mobile UK een draadloze USB-modem van Option toevoegt aan zijn baanbrekende aanbod voor mobiel breedband. De iCON 431 is een intelligente HSUPA USB-modem die snelle breedband verzekert, vandaag en in de toekomst. T-Mobile UK brengt dit toestel op de markt als de Mobile Broadband USB Stick 530.

De iCON 431 van Option kan downloadsnelheden tot 7,2 Mbps aan en uploadsnelheden tot 5,7 Mbps. Dankzij triband HSPA op de 900, 1900 & 2100 MHz-band verzekert de iCON 431 mobiele breedbandverbindingen overal ter wereld. Option’s gepatenteerde Zero-CD Plug 'n' Play-technologie zorgt voor gebruiksgemak: alle drivers en software worden automatisch geïnstalleerd wanneer het toestel voor het eerst aan een pc wordt gekoppeld.

Het smaakvolle en compacte toestel meet amper 76 x 27 x 13 mm wanneer de USB-connector teruggetrokken in de behuizing zit. In de innovatieve Micro-SD-sleuf is plaats voor een geheugenkaart van 8 GB. Hierdoor is de iCON 431 een veelzijdig opslagapparaat. Foto’s van de USB-modem zjn beschikbaar op https://www.option.com/en/products/products/usb-modems/icon431/.

De mobiele-breedbanddienst van T-Mobile kende tussen Q2 and Q3 2008 een groei van 35 % wat de verkoop van datatoestellen betreft. Bovendien heeft ze een geschat marktaandeel van 22 % in een segment dat maandelijks 11 % groeit. Als voorbereiding op de exponentiële toename in de vraag naar diensten voor mobiele data, heeft T-Mobile stappen ondernomen om ervoor te zorgen dat de klantervaring mee verbetert wanneer het aantal klanten en het gebruik stijgen. Een centraal punt in het engagement van T-Mobile om een uitstekende dienstverlening te bieden, is een programma van voortdurende en onafhankelijke, driemaandelijkse benchmarktests. Zo wil het zijn klanten de beste ervaring en prestaties op het gebied van mobiele breedband bieden.

“Option levert al jaren datakaarten aan T-Mobile UK”, zei Jan Callewaert, CEO van Option. “We zijn verheugd dat onze USB-modems een bijdrage zullen leveren aan het langdurige succes van het T-Mobile mobiele-breedbandaanbod in Europa.”

Met meer dan 126,6 miljoen klanten is T-Mobile een van de grootste mobiele operatoren ter wereld. Bovendien kiezen 16,8 miljoen mensen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk voor de diensten van T-Mobile, waardoor het er een van de grootste netwerken vormt. T-Mobile biedt een brede waaier van vernieuwende producten en diensten, zoals Solo, een formule exclusief voor SIM-kaarten met het voordeligste aantal belminuten en sms’jes op de markt en met een contract dat per 30 dagen vernieuwd wordt. Of Combi, de beste all-informule; Flext, een uniek tariefplan met flexibele kortingen; U-Fix, een formule die betaal-voor-wat-je-verbruikt combineert met een contract met minimumtermijn en web’n’walk, dat klanten surfplezier onderweg bezorgt. In de scherpe tariefplannen voor mobiele breedband van hoge snelheid is toegang inbegrepen tot ‘s werelds grootste Wi-Fi-netwerk, met meer dan 1.000 hotspots op handige locaties in het Verenigd Koninkrijk en 27.000 in de rest van de wereld. De netwerkdekking van T-Mobile behoort tot de beste van het Verenigd Koninkrijk: meer dan 99 % van de Britse bevolking wordt bereikt. T-Mobile gebruikt een geavanceerd 3G HSDPA-netwerk dat effectieve mobiele-breedbandsnelheden tot 4,5 Mbps aankan. Bovendien is het de eerste Britse operator die HSUPA over het hele land aanbiedt om snellere uploads mogelijk te maken.
