<p>MIHKEL SERGO, PRESIDENT</p>
<p>Mr. Sergo is a seasoned finance professional with extensive experience in the
telecommunication and energy sectors. His major strengths lie in technical,
economic, legal and financial analysis. In addition he is skilled in negotiating,
preparing and appraising projects, as well as project supervision and procurement.�
Mr. Sergo has held senior management positions in major private telecom companies
in South America and while at the World Bank, he established an enviable track
record in the preparation and appraisal of telecommunications projects and in
the design of policy reforms and sector restructuring strategies for developing
countries. </p>
<p>EDUCATION</p>
<p>Mr. Sergo holds MBA from the Stockholm School
of Economics with emphasis on quantitative methods and operations research.
In addition, he has completed extensive studies in administration, finance,
economics and law.</p>
<p>PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE</p>
<p>Mr. Sergo's experience literally spans the
globe: He has worked on telecommunications and petroleum operations in
some 30 countries in Latin America, Africa, Middle East, Eastern Europe and
South and East Asia.</p>
<p>As President and Co-Founder of PM Global Infrastructure Inc., Mr.Sergo is the
senior partner managing assignments in telecom and energy, and serves as the
senior financial analyst for other projects. Recently, he has provided advice
to the World Bank on telecom sector reforms in Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
He has also carried out a pre-feasibility study of a mobile telephone system
in Bangladesh on behalf of a private client and is creating innovative programs
for adopting new technology for other private clients in this sector.</p>
<p>THE WORLD BANK </p>
<p>In the decades between 1977 and 1997, Mr, Sergo
held executive positions at the World Bank, serving as Senior Financial Analyst
and Task Manager for telecommunciations, energy and infrastructure projects
throughout the world. </p>
<p>He managed telecom operations in Bangladesh,
Indonesia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Sri Lanka and Thailand and
energy projects in Europe and in many countries in Asia and the Middle East
and represented the World Bank at ITU meetings in Buenos Aires, Singapore and
Geneva.</p>
<p>A major focus of Mr. Sergo's work was in sector
reform and restructuring aimed at expanding the role of private operators. His
achievements in this field can best be illustrated by the succession of three
projects that he prepared, appraised and supervised in Sri Lanka. The
two first projects were financed primarily by public sector investments, but
helped to liberalize the mobile phone and value added services and to transform
the government-owned operator into an independent corporation. In 1995,
Mr. Sergo undertook a review of the effects of the reforms and outlined a blueprint
for further liberalization. Discussions with the Government of Sri Lanka
led to agreement on further liberalization of the telecom sector, strengthening
of the legal and regulatory arrangements and privatization of the state owned
Sri Lanka Telecom Corporation (SLT). These reforms were supported through
a new project that has become a model for a new generation of World Bank telecom
sector operations. </p>
<p>Mr. Sergo also managed telecom operations in
Colombia, El Salvador, Fiji, Guatemala, Iraq, Kenya, Somalia, Uruguay, Venezuela,
Yugoslavia and Zambia. Especially noteworthy was his advice to the Kenyan
Government regarding the allocation of telecom assets and liabilities and related
legal issues following the break-up of the East African Union.</p>
<p>In the energy sector, Mr. Sergo has worked
on the preparation, appraisal and supervision of refinery projects in Bangladesh,
Pakistan and Thailand; on gas development, petroleum and pipeline projects in
Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Korea, Myanmar, Egypt, Hungary and Syria.</p>
<p>Mr. Sergo's expertise has been acknowledged by the World in the form of two
"awards of excellence" for portfolio management and project supervision:
one for a natural gas project in Indonesi; the other was for an airport improvement
project in the Maldives.�� </p>
<p>THE ERICSSON GROUP</p>
<p>Mr. Sergo's expertise in financial analysis and management is exemplified in
his work with The Ericsson Group where he rose from a position of Financial
Analyst for the company's cable manufacturing plant in Argentina, to Finance
Manager for two telephone operating companies in Argentina to Managing Director
and CEO for Cia. Ericsson S.A.C.I., the group�s sales company in Argentina.
During that time, Mr. Sergo also had� overall responsibility for the finances
of all four of the group�s companies in Argentina. In this position he
initiated Ericsson�s manufacturing of telephones in Argentina as well as the
company�s exports to Chile and Uruguay.</p>
