Frequently Asked Questions

 


GRAPHIC

Frequently Asked Questions Could Telefónica increase its Offer? Telefónica is free to increase its offer at any time. It can raise it prior to the EGM, in which case shareholders would vote on the increased offer. It can also make a higher offer after the EGM, in which case Portugal Telecom would take necessary action to allow shareholders to opine on the revised proposal What will happen if the Offer is rejected? Could Telefónica frustrate PT (dissolution of Brasilcel; blocking of dividend)? No Consideration Should Be Given to Telefónica's Suggestions Relating to Brasilcel. In assessing the Offer and forming a view as to whether the Offer should be accepted or rejected, no consideration should be given to Telefónica's suggestions over the past few weeks that Telefónica could or would seek dissolution/liquidation of Brasilcel and/or block dividends payment at Brasilcel Based on the advice of its legal advisors, Portugal Telecom's board of directors rejects these suggestions. Portugal Telecom’s board of directors is convinced that Telefónica's suggestions are intimidating in nature and any resulting action would amount to an unreasonable attempt to frustrate its joint venture partner What will happen to Portugal Telecom if the Offer is rejected? Portugal Telecom will continue to contribute to the success of Vivo through Brasilcel. We will remain open to any discussion on the joint venture that maximizes value to Portugal Telecom and Vivo shareholders What would the use of proceed be? In the event of a disposal of PT’s stake in Brasilcel, Portugal Telecom expects to use the proceeds of the sale for general corporate purposes, including future investments, financing of capital expenditure, repayment of existing indebtedness, repurchase of shares and distribution to shareholders. Decisions regarding the use of such proceeds will be taken with a view to furthering the best interests of Portugal Telecom and maximizing value for its shareholders. No assurances can be made that all or a part of the proceeds from the sale of Brasilcel will be returned to shareholders. Portugal Telecom's track record in delivering value to shareholders over time stands for itself
