TOKYO, JAPAN, April 20, 2007 — NTT DoCoMo, Inc. and its eight regional subsidiaries announced today that the company will join the (PRODUCT) RED initiative through sales in Japan of M702iS(RED) handset developed by Motorola. A percentage of the profits from sales will be donated to the Global Fund to fight AIDS.

Motorola will donate approximately 1,000 yen for each M702iS(RED) handset purchased and DoCoMo will donate 1% of each user’s monthly bill to the Global Fund. The monthly statement that handset users receive from DoCoMo will remain unchanged and donations under this promotion will be made through the end of March 2008.

(PRODUCT) RED is a business model whereby major international brands make sustainable donations to the Global Fund through sales of their (PRODUCT) RED items.
