Frame agreement concluded between Matáv and the Hungarian Cable Communications Alliance (MKSZ)
Budapest, July 7, 1999
A frame agreement regarding the lease of underground cable lines was signed on July 2 between MATÁV and the Hungarian Cable Communications Alliance (MKSZ). The agreement was signed on behalf of MKSZ by company Vice President Gergely Ökrös, and by MATÁV Central Sales Director Béla Fazekas and Key Customers Head of Department Lajos Nagy.
The agreement is an important milestone for MATÁV in the development of
the company's contract lease agreements regarding use of its
underground cable lines. The Hungarian Cable Communications Alliance
has also recommended that its member companies conclude individual
development contracts with Matáv's regional organisations. Although the
present agreement effects only those cable TV companies that are
members of MKSZ, MATÁV has offered similarly beneficial agreements to
Hungary's other leading cable TV alliance, the Hungarian Cable
Television Alliance.
The significance of this contract is underscored by the fact that the
two cable TV alliances represent many hundreds of smaller companies
nation-wide, and that Matáv's generous offer of identical terms and
conditions to both organisations reinforces the company's commitment to
fair play on the Hungarian market.
