Hackensack, NJ and Rosh Ha'ayin, Israel - February 9, 2000 --- Net2Phone Inc. (NASDAQ: NTOP) and Barak ITC today announced an IP networking and collocation agreement, enabling Net2Phone to extend its Internet telephony network throughout Israel.

Under the agreement, Net2Phone will collocate its Internet telephony gateways at Barak's points of presence throughout Israel, enabling Net2Phone to offer its phone-to-phone Internet telephony service to Israeli consumers and enterprises beginning in April. Net2Phone plans to sell these phone-to-phone services directly as well as through its relationship with America Online's (NYSE: AOL) ICQ instant messaging service. Barak plans to considerably expand its position in the Internet telephony space in the coming years, and considers itself a leading player in providing infrastructure and Internet access throughout Israel.

According to Avi Patir, CEO of Barak, "The cooperation between Barak and Net2Phone in the area of Internet infrastructure for the transmission of telephony marks a further stage in Barak's extensive Internet activities. Barak provides leading organizations and companies in Israel and abroad with infrastructures and access to the Internet."

Patir noted that considerable expansion is anticipated for the coming years in the market for telephony transmission via Internet infrastructure, and "Barak considers itself a leading player in the provision of infrastructures and Internet access services."

"Israel's cellular penetration has exploded over the past few years and has emerged as one of the top countries using wireless technologies. We anticipate many Israelis to utilize Net2Phone over their wireless phones," said Uri Schechterman, VP of International Sales at Net2Phone.

According to a recent study by Global TGI, a New York-based market research firm, 61% of Israelis have a cell phone for personal use, as compared to 39% in the U.S.

"The Israeli marketplace for telecommunications is mushrooming daily, and we are very excited to be expanding our product offerings in fast-growing countries," Schechterman continued. "Our customers in Israel have been using our PC-based services for years, and we are pleased extend our products and services to include calling from traditional phones whether at home or as they travel around the world."

Barak joins AT&T and Sprint and dozens of other carriers working with Net2Phone to route calls over the Internet. Competitive carriers in major markets are partnering with Net2Phone to expand its IP reach worldwide. Barak will also supply Net2Phone with IP connectivity between the U.S. and Israel.
