Comptel Corporation Stock exchange release 7 November 2008 at 8.00 am          

Comptel establishes a customer service center in Bulgaria                       
and increases its product development in Malaysia                               

Comptel Corporation establishes a customer service center in Sofia, Bulgaria for
the delivery and support of its software solutions. The center starts to serve  
the customers in the near-by region and will later expand its operations.       
Comptel has significant telecom operator customers in Bulgaria, Romania, Albania
and Greece. Furthermore, the East European telecom markets offer new growth     
opportunities for Comptel.                                                      

The customer service center will be established in cooperation with a local     
software company. The center is estimated to have 6-10 employees at the end of  
this year and to grow in the future. Operations in Bulgaria will bring Comptel  
closer to the customers, support the growth opportunities in Eastern Europe,    
facilitate the recruitment of IT and software specialists and strengthen the    
profitability of Comptel's service business.                                    

During 2008 Comptel has increased its personnel also in Malaysia. A product     
development organisation has been established in Kuala Lumpur with 25 employees 
recruited so far. This number is expected to grow in 2009. Increasing the       
product development capacity in Malaysia brings Comptel new talent from the     
local developed employment market and enables further development of Comptel's  
competitive cost structure. In total Comptel has currently over 80 employees in 
Malaysia.
