Capacity and Enables Oblio Division to Terminate International Traffic
Over Sprint Network
Titan Global Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:TTGLStock Forums), a high-growth diversified
holding company, announced today that Oblio Telecom, Inc., a subsidiary
of Titan, amicably resolved issues with Sprint Nextel Corporation that
incorporates new wholesale purchasing agreement which replaced Oblio's
prior agreement with Sprint. The agreement also expands wireline

extensive network.
“As we have communicated to our customers and
investors, Titan’s Communications Division has
progressed to a vertically integrated model,”
said Kurt Jensen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Titan’s
Communications Division. “We are excited to
open our relationship with Sprint Wholesale wherein we can utilize its
worldwide network prowess.”
The settlement reflects the amicable progression of Titan’s
relationship with Sprint. The re-positioned wholesale agreement provides
additional wireline capacity to Titan’s
established network, which enables Titan to support more customers to
more destinations around the globe.

expects to achieve additional synergies and cost savings by leveraging
Ready Mobile’s distribution strength in the
