(PR NEWSWIRE) DJ: Teltran International Named U.S. Refile Hub for OzEmail DJ: Teltran International Named U.S. Refile Hub for OzEmail Interline's Internet Telephony Service NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 23, 1998--Teltran International Group Ltd. (OTCBB:TLTG) Monday announced that OzEmail Interline PTY, a subsidiary of OzEmail Limited (NASDAQ:OZEMY) has completed testing of Teltran's U.S. hub that will enable Interline to deliver Internet telephone calls to over 200 countries worldwide. Teltran will serve as the U.S. hub for Interline's Internet refile traffic terminating domestic and international calls to destinations where the Interline network does not have a local gateway. Telephone calls into the Teltran hub will originate from Interline's affiliates around the world, which currently include companies in the U.S., Japan, Hong Kong, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and Germany. "This agreement will strengthen Teltran's position in the international telecommunications arena giving us an entry into the exciting world of Internet telephony," said Byron Lerner, Teltran's chief executive officer. "Until today, Interline affiliates were limited in the number of countries where they could terminate traffic. Now Interline and its affiliates can offer their customers inexpensive, high quality international long distance service to more than 200 countries." "We are excited to complete this crucial phase of our global VoIP rollout," added Michael Neville, chief executive officer of Interline. "We needed to demonstrate, for our affiliates, a refile hub that provides broad international coverage, robust network systems and competitive pricing. Teltran's systems demonstrated the needed performance and security." "Acting as Interline's U.S. hub will give us a solid presence in the Internet Telephony Industry," commented Lerner. "Teltran has a strong focus on working with our customers to deliver unique telecommunications solutions. We look forward to serving the needs of Interline as they build their market position in this newly emerging industry." The Teltran network is equipped to meet the needs of its customer base using Summa Four, Lucent and DMS switches to connect to its international and domestic carriers. Teltran constantly monitors its carriers to provide its customers with the lowest possible rates for fiber optic transport around the globe while not sacrificing quality.

Licensed by the FCC as a global facilities-based common carrier, Teltran offers a full range of telecommunications services including domestic and international long distance, fax broadcast services, calling card programs and satellite communications.
