This announcement and related information do not constitute a public offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy or subscribe for any securities. Any offer will be made only by means of an offer memorandum. The offer described in this announcement will be made for the ordinary shares of Koninklijke KPN N.V., a public limited liability company incorporated under Dutch law, and is subject to Dutch disclosure and procedural requirements, which are different from those of the United States.

Accordingly, the offer will be subject to disclosure and other procedural requirements, including with respect to withdrawal rights, the offer timetable, settlement procedures and timing of payments, that are different from those applicable under U.S. domestic tender offer procedures and laws. To the extent permissible under applicable law or regulation, América Móvil, S.A.B. de C.V. and its affiliates or brokers (acting as agents for América Móvil, S.A.B. de C.V. or its affiliates, as applicable) may from time to time after the date hereof, and other than pursuant to the offer, directly or indirectly purchase, or arrange to purchase, ordinary shares of Koninklijke KPN N.V., that are the subject of the offer or any securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for such shares. To the extent information about such purchases or arrangements to purchase is made public in The Netherlands, such information will be disclosed by means of a press release or other means reasonably calculated to inform U.S. shareholders of Koninklijke KPN N.V. of such information. In addition, the financial advisors to América Móvil, S.A.B. de C.V., may also engage in ordinary course trading activities in securities of Koninklijke KPN N.V., which may include purchases or arrangements to purchase such securities. For purposes of this press release any reference to América Móvil shall where appropriate include Carso Telecom B.V., the affiliate designated by América Móvil to make the Intended Offer (as defined below). Any reference in this press release to a "voluntary public offer" and "voluntary tender offer" shall be construed as references to a full offer (volledig bod) as referred to in Section 1 paragraph b of the Takeover Decree. The offer price shall be reduced by the per share amount of any dividends or other distributions paid or declared by Koninklijke KPN N.V. following the date hereof and prior to the settlement of the offer. |
