EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
 
The following summary contains a brief description of the most significant aspects of the Offers, does not purport to include all relevant information thereon, and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the more detailed descriptions and financial information included elsewhere in this Disclosure Statement, as well as in AMX’s Annual Report, which is available for consultation at www.americamovil.com, TELECOM’s Annual Report, which is available for consultation at www.cgtelecom.com.mx, and TELINT’s Annual Report, which is available for consultation at www.telmexinternacional.com. Such annual reports are also available for consultation through the Mexican Stock Exchange at www.bmv.com.mx.
 
The consummation of the Offers and the U.S. Offer entails a series of transactions, including the following:
 
(i)  
The TELECOM Offer: AMX intends to conduct a tender offer to purchase from TELECOM’s shareholders up to approximately 3,481,765,200 TELECOM Shares, subject to the concurrent purchase and subscription by such shareholders of AMX Shares based on an exchange ratio of 2.0474 to 1. As a result, those TELECOM’s shareholders electing to participate in the TELECOM Offer will have the right to subscribe 2.0474 AMX Shares in exchange for each TELECOM Share tendered by them; provided, that the AMX Shares are not and shall not be deemed to be included in the TELECOM Offer or subject thereto. The consummation of the TELECOM Offer is conditioned upon there being no regulatory restriction preventing the TELECOM shareholders from participating therein.
 
(ii)  
The TELINT Offer: AMX intends to conduct a tender offer to purchase the TELINT Shares from TELINT’s shareholders. The TELINT Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, the successful acquisition by AMX of at least 51% (fifty one percent) of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of TELECOM in connection with the TELECOM Offer; provided, that AMX will only invoke such condition upon TELECOM’s shareholders becoming subject to any regulatory or other restriction precluding their participation in the TELECOM Offer; and provided, further, that the satisfaction of such condition will not be subject to the sole will of TELECOM’s shareholders.
 
(iii)  
The U.S. Offer: AMX intends to conduct a tender offer to purchase in the United States up to the same number of TELINT Shares included in the TELINT Offer, including those in the form of ADSs (each of which represents 20 Series L or 20 Series A shares), in substantially the same terms and conditions as in the TELINT Offer, subject to all applicable U.S. laws.
 
The financial terms of the Offers were determined based upon the average closing price of the AMX Shares, the Series L TELINT Shares, and the Series L shares of Telmex (the “TMX Shares”) in the Mexican Stock Exchange for the 10-day trading period immediately preceding AMX’s disclosure of its intent to commence the process toward the consummation of the Offers, which period ended January 12, 2010 (the “Valuation Period”). The price per share so determined will be hereinafter referred to as the “Average Price Over the Valuation Period”.

UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.

In particular, for purposes of the TELINT Offer (1) the actual price per share is equal to the Average Price Over the Valuation Period of each Series L TELINT Share, and (2) the price of the shares to be subscribed is equal to the Average Price Over the Valuation Period of the Series L TELINT Shares, divided by the Average Price Over the Valuation Period of each AMX Share.
 
The price of the TELECOM Shares for purposes of the TELECOM Offer was determined based upon the value of its principal assets, which consist of TMX Shares and TELINT Shares, and upon TELECOM’s net debt as of December 31, 2009.
 
Depending on the outcome of the Offers and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the applicable laws, including the performance of all acts necessary to protect the public’s interests and the authorization of all requisite corporate actions, upon consummation of the Offers a petition to cancel the registration of the TELECOM Shares and the TELINT Shares in the RNV may be filed with the Mexican Stock Exchange, and a petition to cancel the registration of such shares may be field with the Mexican Stock Exchange, so that the TELECOM Shares and the TELINT Shares will no longer trade therein. If upon completion of the Offers there remain any publicly held TELECOM Shares and/or TELINT Shares, AMX may elect to create one or more of the trusts referred to in Article 108, Section I(c), of the Mexican Securities Market Law (Ley del Mercado de Valores).
 
In any event, AMX will observe all applicable legal provisions to ensure the protection of the public’s interests and the market generally, as required by the Mexican Securities Market Law.
 
As part of the process to complete the Offers, América Móvil intends to amend its bylaws in the terms described in this Disclosure Statement, in order to replace the existing nationality clause with a clause precluding the participation of foreign nationals therein, and to cancel the existing Series A shares pursuant to terms that will preserve the rights of their current holders and, therefore, without affecting such series of shares.

THE OFFERS
 
3.1.  
Purpose
 
The primary objective of the TELECOM Offer is for AMX to acquire all of the outstanding TELECOM Shares currently held by the public and, as a result, the direct and indirect ownership of approximately 59.4% (fifty nine point four percent) of the outstanding shares of stock of Telmex and approximately 60.7% (sixty point seven percent) of the outstanding shares of stock of TELINT.
 
The objective of the TELINT Offer is for AMX to acquire the TELINT Shares.
 
The consummation of the Offers is conditioned upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the authorization of certain corporate actions and the receipt of various regulatory approvals, some of which have been heretofore obtained by América Móvil and/or TELECOM. The consummation of the TELINT Offer is conditioned upon the successful acquisition of at least 51% (fifty one percent) of the TELECOM Shares in connection with the TELECOM Offer; provided, that AMX will only invoke such condition upon TELECOM’s shareholders becoming subject to any regulatory or other restriction precluding their participation in the TELECOM Offer; and provided, further, that the satisfaction of such condition will not be subject to the sole will of TELECOM’s shareholders. The consummation of the TELECOM Offer is conditioned upon there being no regulatory restrictions precluding the participation of TELECOM’s shareholders therein. AMX intends to structure the Offers as efficiently as practicable, taking into consideration, among other things, various corporate, tax and regulatory considerations.
 
The combined purpose of the Offers is for AMX to acquire the direct ownership of 100% (one hundred percent) of the TELECOM Shares and, as a result, the direct and indirect ownership of 100% (one hundred percent) of the TELINT Shares, and of approximately 59.4% (fifty nine point four percent) of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of Telmex.
 
The evolution of the telecommunications industry has led to the development of technological platforms capable of providing combined voice, data and video transmission services. This circumstance, coupled with the most recent advances in applications, functionalities and equipment, points towards an imminent, exponential growth in the demand for data services in Latin America and the Caribbean. The business combination described herein will enable AMX to offer integrated communication services throughout the region, regardless of their platform of origin. In addition, the business combination will enable AMX to create significant synergies, improve its marketing efforts and more efficiently use its networks and information systems and processes, which will in turn enable it to offer more integrated and universal services in increasingly attractive conditions to its customers. AMX also believes that the combined businesses will place it in a better position to focus on research and development in the telecommunications and information technology industries. Overall, the business combination will strengthen AMX’s position as a world class company with nearly 250 million customers in 18 countries.
 
As a strong and competitive Mexican corporation, AMX will be well positioned to offer to its customers and investors the benefits of the significant technological changes occurring worldwide, which will be of particular relevance in Latin America.

provide any consideration whatsoever in respect of such tender, or (ii) amend the terms and conditions of the Offers, if AMX shall have determined in good faith that any of the conditions set forth in the documents pertaining to the Offers, has or, as the case may be, has not been met.
 
As described in the relevant offering documents, the Offers are subject to the satisfaction of, among others, the following conditions:
 
·  
The consummation of the TELECOM Offer is conditioned upon TELECOM’s shareholders not being subject to any legal or other restriction that may preclude or limit their ability to participate in the TELECOM Offer.
 
·  
The consummation of the TELINT Offer is conditioned upon the successful acquisition of at least 51% (fifty one percent) of the TELECOM Shares in connection with the TELECOM Offer; provided, that AMX will only invoke such condition upon TELECOM’s shareholders becoming subject to any regulatory or other restriction precluding their participation in the TELECOM Offer; and provided, further, that the satisfaction of such condition will not be subject to the sole will of TELECOM’s shareholders.
 
·  
The consummation of the Offers, including the U.S. Offer, is conditioned upon: (i) the receipt of all the requisite corporate and regulatory approvals, or the continuing validity of any approval obtained prior to the commencement of the Offers; and (ii) the absence of any adverse change in the condition of the domestic and international financial and securities markets, or any act by a third party, including any act of authority, that may restrict, prevent, prohibit or adversely affect the conduction and/or consummation of the Offers and/or the participation therein of any of the parties thereto.

12.

15.  
Treasury Shares of AMX. Assuming that all of TELINT’s shareholders will elect to tender their TELINT Shares in exchange for AMX Shares in connection with the TELINT Offer, AMX will deliver to the TELINT shareholders and the TELECOM shareholders, for subscription and payment of the Offers, approximately 9,768,274,949 AMX Shares currently held in AMX’s treasury.
 
16.  
Capital Resources. América Móvil intends to use the AMX Shares currently held by it as treasury shares, to consummate the Offers. In addition, AMX intends to use its own resources and/or draw from certain credit facilities established for its benefit prior to the commencement of the Offers. AMX has not made any final decision as to whether to seek additional financing, issue securities or avail itself of other types of resources for purposes of the Offers. Notwithstanding the above, the Offers are not conditioned upon the availability of any such facility or resources, or upon AMX’s ability to secure financing from third parties, including if all of the holders of the TELINT Shares elect to receive cash in exchange therefor.
 
17.  
Exchange of Share Certificates. Subject to the approval of the relevant proposal by its general extraordinary shareholders meeting, América Móvil intends to amend certain provisions of its corporate bylaws. As a result, pursuant to Article 140 of the General Law of Business Corporations, América Móvil will exchange all of the outstanding share certificates and issue new certificates reflecting the amendment of its bylaws.
 
18.  
Continuing Existence. Following the consummation of the Offers, América Móvil will continue to be organized as a holding company and will remain primarily engaged in the provision of telecommunication services in Latin America and the Caribbean.
 
3.3.   
Capital Resources
 
The amount of capital resources required by América Móvil to consummate the Offers will depend largely on the decision of the holders of TELINT Shares that may elect to participate in the TELINT Offer and the U.S. Offer, as to whether to tender their TELINT Shares in exchange for cash or for AMX Shares. If the holders of the TELINT Shares elect the cash option, the amount in cash required by AMX to pay the relevant consideration, including all fees and expenses, will be approximately Ps.82,500 million. None of the Offers is conditioned upon the availability of external sources of financing.
 
We expect to obtain the funds necessary to complete the Offers from cash and cash equivalents on hand, supplemented if necessary by drawing under a U.S.$2 billion revolving syndicated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) between us, certain lenders from time to time party thereto, Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as Sole Bookrunner and Sole Lead Arranger.
 
AMX’s cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2009 amounted to Ps.27.4 billion, equivalent to approximately U.S.$2.1 billion at the December 31, 2009 exchange rate.  In addition, AMX can apply toward the completion of the Offers a substantial amount of the cash generated from its operations during 2010 through the date of completion of the Offers. AMX expects to generate cash from operations in 2010 that substantially exceeds its other funding requirements, and part of those funding requirements can be met by drawing on committed facilities from export credit agencies totaling approximately $1 billion.
 
The Credit Agreement provides for borrowings of up to U.S.$2 billion, all of which is currently available for borrowing.  Proceeds of borrowing may be used for general corporate purposes, including paying the cash consideration in the Offers and the expenses of the Offers.  The Credit Agreement is unsecured and is guaranteed by Telcel. Under the Credit Agreement, we must pay interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate plus a spread of 25 basis points. The Credit Agreement matures in April 2011.
 
The Credit Agreement contains typical covenants for a syndicated credit facility, including limitations on our ability to incur secured debt, to effect a merger of América Móvil or Telcel, to sell substantially all of
 

 
15

 
UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.

América Móvil’s assets, to sell control of Telcel, or to permit restrictions on the ability of Telcel to pay dividends or make distributions to América Móvil. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires that we maintain a consolidated ratio of debt to EBITDA not greater than 4.0 to 1.0, and a consolidated ratio of EBITDA to interest expense not less than 2.5 to 1.0.  América Móvil was in compliance with these ratios as of December 31, 2009 and would remain so even after giving pro forma effect to a draw of the full amount available under the Credit Agreement.
 
If AMX obtains funds for the completion of the Offers through loans, it expects to repay the loans using cash generated by its operations or by other borrowings.
 
3.4.   
Expenses
 
All the expenses incurred in connection with the transactions required to complete the Offers will be borne by América Móvil. It is estimated that the aggregate amount of expenses incurred in connection with the Offers will be approximately Ps.20 million. For additional information regarding the cash resources available to cover such expenses, see the preceding section of this Disclosure Statement.
 
3.5.   
Authorization Date
 
On January 13, 2010, the board of directors of AMX resolved by unanimous consent to authorize the commencement of the process towards the completion of the Offers.
 
On March 17, 2010, AMX will hold (i) a general ordinary shareholders meeting, at which it will submit the terms of the Offers for their approval, and (ii) a general extraordinary shareholders meeting, at which it will submit for approval a proposal to amend its corporate bylaws in order to replace the existing nationality clause with a clause precluding the participation of foreign nationals therein, and to cancel the existing Series A shares pursuant to terms that will preserve the rights of their current holders and, therefore, without affecting such series of shares.
 
Pursuant to Article Nine of the bylaws of AMX, all the Series A shares currently outstanding can be converted into Series L shares. For so long as there are any Series A shares outstanding, such shares will carry the same rights and obligations set forth in the bylaws in respect of all other shares of common stock of AMX, namely, its Series AA shares, with the sole exception that as of the date of this Disclosure Statement the Series A shares may be held by foreign individuals, entities or economic agents, and/or by Mexican corporations in which foreign nationals constitute a majority or in which such foreign nationals have the ability, by any means whatsoever, to direct the management thereof.
 
3.6.   
Exchange Date
 
Subject to the approval of the relevant proposal by its general extraordinary shareholders meeting, América Móvil intends to amend certain provisions of its corporate bylaws. As a result, pursuant to Article 140 of the Mexican General Law of Business Corporations (Ley General de Sociedades Mercantiles), América Móvil will exchange all of the outstanding share certificates and issue new certificates reflecting the amendment of its bylaws.
 
3.7.

The Series AA shares, which must represent at all times at least 51% of the aggregate number of Series AA and Series A shares, may only be held by investors who qualify as Mexican pursuant to the Mexican Foreign Investment Law (Ley de Inversión Extranjera) and the bylaws of América Móvil. Each Series AA share, and each Series A share, may be exchanged, at the election of its holder, for one Series L share; provided, that the Series AA shares may not at any time represent less than 20% of América Móvil’s capital stock or less than 51% of the aggregate number of Series AA and Series A shares.
 
América Móvil intends to amend certain provisions of its corporate bylaws in order to replace the existing nationality clause with a clause precluding the participation of foreign nationals therein, and to cancel the existing Series A shares pursuant to terms that will preserve the rights of their current holders and, therefore, without affecting such series of shares. The text of the proposed amendment to the bylaws will be available for consultation by AMX’s shareholders, with the anticipation required by the applicable laws and such bylaws, at the office of the secretary of the board of directors of AMX.

·  
On January 13th our Board of Directors authorized us to submit an offer for all outstanding shares of Carso Global Telecom and Telmex International. Acceptance of such offers by the respective shareholders would lead to América Móvil consolidating both Telmex and Telmex International.
 
Relevant Events
 
On December 10th, América Móvil paid an extraordinary dividend of 50 Mexican peso cents per share.  It represented an aggregate amount of 15.8 billion Mexican pesos (equivalent to 1.2 billion dollars). Altogether América Móvil distributed 50.4 billion Mexican pesos in dividends and share buybacks in 2009.
 
América Móvil surpassed the 200 million wireless subscribers mark in December, closing the year with 201 million subscribers. América Móvil continues to be the third largest company in the world in terms of equity subscribers.
 
On January 13th América Móvil disclosed that its Board of Directors had authorized it to commence the Offers.
Subscribers
 
América Móvil finished December with 201 million wireless clients, 3.4% more than in the prior quarter and 10.0% more than a year before. We added 6.6 million subscribers in the fourth quarter bringing the total for the year to 18.2 million.
 
Brazil led the way in terms of net additions with 2.1 million in the quarter, followed by TracFone, in the U.S. with 1.2 million (64.9% more than in the same period of 2008) and Mexico with 807 thousand. Argentina gained 551 thousand subscribers in the period while Colombia-Panama, Peru and Ecuador all obtained somewhat more than 400 thousand subs.
 
Throughout 2009 the same pattern held, with Brazil pulling ahead of the rest of our operations with 5.7 million subs, trailed by TracFone (3.2 million), Mexico (2.8 million) and Argentina (1.6 million). At the end of the year we had close to 60 million subs in Mexico, 44 million in Brazil, 28 million in Colombia and 17 million in Argentina.  In the U.S. we had over 14 million clients, which makes TracFone the largest operator by subscribers in the prepaid segment of the market.
 
For the most part our operations registered in the fourth quarter a faster increase of their postpaid subscriber base than of the prepaid one in annual terms, helped along by their better coverage, quality of service and technological platform that allows them to offer more varied data services. The increase in postpaid net adds from a year before was particularly noteworthy in Mexico, the Dominican Republic and Chile.

América Móvil Consolidated Results
 
With the South American economies recovering more rapidly than anticipated from the crisis that shook the world towards the end of 2008, subscriber growth in those countries reaccelerated, helping América Móvil surpass its net subscriber additions target for 2009 and post revenue increases that were driven also by strong secular demand for wireless data services. In North America revenue expansion was solid even in the face of an extremely weak economic environment.
 
Fourth quarter revenues came in at 107.1 billion pesos. They were up 13.4% from the year-earlier quarter as service revenues climbed almost 15% on the back of data revenues that shot up 48.7% in the period, with every one of our operations exhibiting solid data revenue growth. Voice revenues expanded in line with subscriber growth (9.3% and 10.0% respectively).
 
EBITDA rose somewhat more rapidly, 16.9%, than service revenues, leading to an increase in the fourth quarter EBITDA margin from 37.0% of total revenues in 2008 to 38.1% in 2009.
 
Revenues for the full year 2009 totaled 395 billion pesos.  They were driven by service revenues that were up 17.1% from a year before buoyed by data services that increased 53.8%.  EBITDA of 158.9 billion pesos translated into an EBITDA margin of 40.3% in the year, slightly higher than that of 2008.
 
Depreciation charges were raised 4.4 billion pesos to 17.7 billion pesos as we were allowed to proceed with faster depreciation for the full year 2009 of our GSM network in some countries, which led to a reduction in tax provisions in the quarter. Going forward depreciation and amortization charges will be closer to 12.5-13.0% of revenues, compared to 16.5% in the fourth quarter.
 
Operating profits reached 23.2 billion pesos in the quarter and 105.8 billion pesos in the year as a whole. They helped bring about a net profit of 13 billion pesos in the quarter and 70.5 billion pesos in all of 2009.  The latter figure represented a 18.5% year-on-year increase. Earnings per share came in at 40 peso cents in the fourth quarter, or 61 USD cents per ADR.
 
Our comprehensive financing costs totaled 1.7 billion pesos in the fourth quarter and 3.0 billion pesos in the year, having been kept down by foreign exchange gains of 1.7 and 4.6 billion pesos respectively and by the downward trend of our net debt, which ended the year at 83.5 billion pesos, down from 121.4 billion pesos in 2008. Whereas part of this reduction was brought about by exchange rate movements, for the most part it reflected the strength of our cash flow, which allowed us to reduce debt by 37.9 billion pesos in flow terms, to cover 50.4 billion pesos in share buybacks and dividend payments—including 15.8 billion paid out on December 10th—and to fund capital expenditures totaling 45.4 billion pesos.
 
Mexico
 
Our Mexican operations added 807 thousand subscribers in the fourth quarter (2.8 million in 2009) to close the year with 59.2 million subs, 5.0% more than at the end of 2008.  At 310 thousand, postpaid gains represented 38.4% of the quarter’s net additions. Our postpaid base continued expanding more rapidly than the prepaid one, having increased 27.4% in 2009 versus 3.2% for our prepaid base. The latter figure reflects the cancellation of one million prepaid subscribers that had had no consumption, possibly on account of the economic downturn.
 
Telcel’s revenues totaled 38.3 billion pesos in the quarter.  They were up 8.4% year-on-year, helped along by data revenues that rose 39.0%. Altogether service revenues climbed almost twice as rapidly as subscribers, 9.3%, a strong showing given the weak economic environment that prevailed throughout the year. The quarter’s EBITDA amounted to 20.2 billion pesos and was
 

 
22

up 11.5% year-on-year, with the EBITDA margin rising to 52.7% from 51.2% in the year-earlier quarter.
 
Minutes of use per subscriber increased to an all-time high that was just shy of 200, whereas the average price per minute of voice fell 16.4% to 68 peso cents (5.2 dollar cents), its lowest level to date and, together with the US, the lowest among the countries that make up the OECD.  The strong growth of data revenues was instrumental in ensuring a 2.8% annual rise in ARPUs in the fourth quarter, to 175 pesos.
 
For the year as a whole Telcel’s revenues totaled 142.4 billion pesos and its EBITDA 78.4 billion pesos.  The EBITDA margin for the year rose 2.7 p.p. from 2008, to 55.1%. EBITDA rose 10.6% over 2008 on the back of service revenues that increased 7.9%.
 
We have made important investments to offer our clients the best coverage and a variety of services supported by cutting-edge technology. We provide services to over 200 thousand communities, including 60 thousand that have less than 5 thousand inhabitants where Telcel is often the only service provider. Our market share in the postpaid market—the one with the highest consumption levels—stands at 49.4%, as those clients have come to value our comprehensive coverage  and the data services we provide, both of them made possible by our investment efforts. A vast and modern network, good quality of service and competitive prices have earned us the preference of most Mexican subscribers, which is reflected in our 66.8% market share of wireless service revenues in the country.
 
Towards the end of January Telcel was notified by the Federal Competition Commission (CFC) that it had been found to be “dominant” in the end-user wireless market.  This ruling is appealable. If upheld, it would empower the Federal Telecommunications Commission to determine specific measures applicable to Telcel as regards rates, quality and information.  Telcel disagrees with the conclusions of the CFC given that it operates in a very competitive market. In the postpaid segment, for instance, Telcel’s market share was only 46% a year ago, scarcely 15 percentage points higher than that of its next competitor. And as regards prepaid, Telcel happens to be today the only option of communication for thousands of Mexicans that live in certain areas where the competition does not provide service. Telcel’s presence in the Mexican wireless market is the result of important investments made over the years to expand and continuously modernize its infrastructure and to service all sectors of the population.  Because its market share did not come about from any undue practice or from having been the first operator in the market (Telcel was the second operator to offer wireless services), Telcel will likely appeal the resolution of the CFC.
 
Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay
 
Fourth quarter net additions of 539 thousand subscribers were marginally below those of last year even though penetration levels are estimated to have reached over 120% in Argentina. Altogether, our operations registered 1.6 million net adds in 2009. We ended December with a total of 18.2 million clients in the region, 9.9% more than at the end of 2008, with our postpaid subscriber base continuing to grow faster than our prepaid one (15.8% year-on-year).
 
Our operations in Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay generated revenues of 2.3 billion Argentinean pesos in the fourth quarter.  They were up 21.0% year-on-year—the highest rate of growth among our Latam operations—with service revenues expanding 23.2%. ARPUs rose 11.6% over the previous year, driven by both voice and data. Argentina is one of the most advanced countries in terms of data usage in the region.
 
Strict cost controls and greater dilution of subscriber acquisition costs enabled us to generate EBITDA of 909 million Argentinean pesos in the quarter, which represented a hefty 28.8% increase over the year-earlier quarter. At 39.1% the EBITDA margin for the period was up 2.4 percentage points in the period.
 

 
23

 
UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.

Through December revenues rose 18% in annual terms, reaching 8.5 billion Argentinean pesos, with service revenues expanding 20.4%. EBITDA topped 3.1 billion Argentinean pesos, having increased 25.6% year-on-year.
 
Brazil
 
Our Brazilian operations added 2.1 million subscribers in the fourth quarter, bringing to 5.7 million the total for the year.  At the end of 2009 we had 44.4 million subscribers in Brazil, up 14.6% from a year before with our postpaid base growing 10.8% to 8.7 million subs.
 
Fourth quarter revenues reached 3.2 billion reais as service revenues rose 6.1% on the back of data revenues that kept on expanding rapidly (51.4% in the quarter). Voice revenues were stable with subscriber growth providing good support as both usage per subscriber (MOUs) and prices per minute declined relative to the previous year, by 6.0 and 7.5% respectively.
 
EBITDA shot up 27.5% in the quarter from a year before, to 781 million reais, with the EBTIDA margin climbing 4.7 percentage points to 24.5% of revenues.  This improvement in EBITDA took place even after we increased our provision for bad debt in moving to a more conservative approach; after allowing for greater spending on customer services and links; and after factoring in a 14.4% increase in taxes paid on the concession (levied on subscribers and radio-bases).  It was made possible by good cost control and by a 21.3% decline in subscriber acquisition costs.
 
Through December revenues came in at 12.0 billion reais and EBITDA at 2.9 billion, up 4.2% and 6.7% respectively from a year before.  Service revenues increased by 8.8% impelled by data revenues, which soared by 62.5%.
 
Chile
 
After adding 296 thousand subscribers in the fourth quarter—38% more than in the same period of 2008—we finished December with 3.6 million clients, 19.8% more than the previous year.
 
We generated revenues of 76.9 billion Chilean pesos in the period. Data revenues nearly doubled those of the prior year—their share of service revenues is now 13%—but voice revenues were down as the average revenue per minute of voice declined 34.0% and the corresponding increase in traffic was not sufficient to compensate such reduction.
 
EBITDA for the quarter of 1.8 billion Chilean pesos was up 19.3% as a reduction in interconnection costs helped offset the reduction in voice revenues. The EBITDA margin rose to 2.4% of revenues.
 
In the twelve months to December our revenues totaled 272.4 billion Chilean pesos and our EBITDA 5.6 billion pesos.
 
By the end of December, our 3G network covered 85% of the population; we have the best 3G coverage in the country.
 
Colombia and Panama
 
We registered 440 thousand subscriber gains in the fourth quarter (little more than a fourth of them postpaid) after cancelling approximately 900 thousand subscribers that had no consumption. We finished 2009 with 27.8 million clients, slightly ahead from the previous year.
 
Revenues for the quarter, 1.5 trillion Colombian pesos, were similar to those registered the previous year, with service revenues rising 2.9% annually on the back of very strong demand for data services. Prices per minute of voice were down 17.8% but, given the weak economic

conditions, traffic did not rise enough to stem a decline in voice revenues. This decline was more than made up by the surge in data revenues, which more than doubled from a year before.
 
Fourth quarter EBITDA was up 8.7% year-on-year to 717 billion Colombian pesos, with the margin climbing 4 percentage points to 47.2% as subscriber acquisition costs declined along with subscriber growth.
 
2009 revenues reached 5.9 trillion Colombian pesos. Equipment revenues came down by 26.8% relative to the previous year because of the sharp deceleration in subscriber growth but service revenues increased 5.1%, a much faster pace than that of the subscriber base. EBITDA for the year, 2.9 trillion Colombian pesos, was equivalent to 49.0% of revenues.  Lower subscriber acquisition costs helped offset higher costs of service associated with both the development of the Panamanian operations and the rapid growth of data services.
 
The Colombian Ministry of Communications awarded Comcel 10MHz of spectrum in the 1900MHz band for a period of 10 years. Comcel has committed to provide coverage to 56 communities within the next twelve months as payment for the concession.
 
Ecuador
 
We gained 1.1 million subscribers in the year of which 401 thousand were added in the fourth quarter to finish December with 13.8% more clients than at the end of 2008: 9.4 million. Our postpaid subscriber base rose somewhat more rapidly: 14.3% in annual terms.
 
The quarter’s revenues, 314 million dollars, were 6.1% higher than those registered in the same period of 2008, with service revenues rising 8.9% supported by both voice and data revenues. The latter increased 6.0% year-on-year buoyed by strong traffic response to declining prices, as prices came down 19.2% and MOUs jumped 14.9% to 98 minutes per month, a new record for Ecuador.  Data revenues surged by nearly 20% from the year before.
 
The quarter’s EBITDA—155 million dollars—rose 16.0% relative to the same period of 2008. The EBITDA margin was equivalent to 49.4% of revenues, exceeding by 4.3 percentage points that of the year-earlier quarter as we capitalized on greater efficiencies and cost-control policies.
 
In 2009, revenues added up to 1.2 billion dollars, 8.2% more than a year ago as service revenues expanded 13.3% in the period. EBITDA for the year increased 16.6% to 564 million dollars, an amount equivalent to 48.9% of revenues, an improvement of 3.5 percentage points from a year before. This improvement came about even after the payment from May 2008 of a special duty of 2.93% of our service revenues.
 
Peru
 
After adding 444 thousand subscribers in the quarter, we finished December with 8.3 million clients, 15.8% more than in the prior year. Net adds totaled 1.1 million in 2009.
 
Fourth quarter revenues of 644 million soles were 6.0% higher than those of the same period of last year. Service revenues grew 8.3% year-on-year boosted by data revenues, which were up 56.4% year-on-year. Voice revenues posted a gain of 4.3% as more subscribers and usage fully offset a 13.7% reduction in prices per minute of voice.
 
Amongst our major operations Peru showed the best performance in terms of EBITDA, which was up 51.8% year-on-year to 276 million soles on account of solid top line growth and a significant reduction in subscriber acquisition costs (-41.6%). The EBITDA margin, 42.8%, expanded 12.9 percentage points in the year.
 

 
25

 
UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.

Total revenues for the year were 2.3 billion soles and EBITDA 885 million soles. Service revenues were up 12.3%, helping bring about a 37.6% increase in EBITDA. The margin climbed 7.8 percentage points from 2008, to reach 37.8%.
 
Number portability was implemented in Peru beginning January 1st. Today subscribers can switch carriers without changing their number. Given the breadth of our coverage, our 3G services and overall quality of service, it is likely that we will stand to gain from the introduction of number portability. In fact, the first official numbers already confirm this.
 
Central America
 
Our operations in Central America—Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Honduras—added a total of 128 thousand new subscribers in the quarter, 16.1% more than a year before, taking the total for 2009 to 377 thousand.  We finished the period with 9.5 million wireless subscribers, 4.1% more than at the end of 2008. In addition to these, we have a total of 2.3 million landlines in the region.
 
In the quarter we generated revenues of 341 million dollars and EBITDA of 138 million dollars, equivalent to 40.5% of revenues. In 2009, revenues added up to 1.4 billion dollars and EBITDA totaled 585 million.
 
For over a year we have been selling integrated services in the region, having made important investments in fiber and coaxial cable that enabled us to offer our clients the convenience of quadruple play.

We gained 234 thousand wireless subscribers in the quarter—1.2 million in the year—to finish the year with 6.1 million wireless clients. Our subscriber base grew 25.9% in the year, with our postpaid subs increasing even more rapidly (31.5%).
 
At 540 million dollars, revenues remained practically flat relative to those of a year before albeit wireless service revenues rose 12.0%. Data revenues were up 82.1% year-on-year increasing its share of wireless service revenues by nearly four percentage points, to 10.3%.
 
EBITDA for the quarter totaled 158 million dollars or 29.3% of revenues. It was down 7.2% year-on-year and the margin declined 2.2 percentage points. The reduction was all related to new taxes introduced in July in Puerto Rico.
 
For the full year 2009, revenues added up to 2.2 billion dollars and EBITDA to 686 million dollars. The EBITDA margin for the period stood at 31.9%.
 
In the Dominican Republic we added television services to our commercial offer. There has been a lot of interest in our integrated services.

TracFone added 1.2 million subscribers in the fourth quarter (64.9% more than a year before) on the successful nationwide launch in over 3,000 WalMart stores of its new product StraightTalk, bringing to 3.2 million its net additions for the year, nearly twice as many as in 2008. We finished December with 14.4 million subscribers as our subscriber base expanded 28.9%.
 
Our revenues totaled 490 million dollars in the quarter, surpassing by 29.5% those of the same period of 2008 driven by both service revenues (23.4%) and equipment revenues (74.8%). The

average price per minute of voice was down 26.0% on an annual basis but minutes of use per subscriber were 25.6% higher.
 
EBITDA for quarter was slightly negative as a result of the subscriber acquisition costs incurred on account of the 2.3 million gross additions.
 
Total revenues for 2009 were up 14.6% to 1.7 billion dollars, whereas service revenues grew 13.7%. We generated 230 million dollars of EBITDA, which is 14.3% less than in 2008, because of the fast pace of subscriber growth. Our core EBITDA margin (pre-SAC margin) actually rose relative to the prior year as a reflection of greater operating and technical efficiencies.

RISK FACTORS
 
5.1.   
Risk Factors Related to América Móvil, TELECOM and TELINT
 
Inserted below is a transcript of the risk factors related to AMX included in AMX’s Annual Report. Investors are encouraged to read the following risk factors in conjunction with, and within the context of, AMX’s Annual Report. For additional information concerning the risk factors related to AMX, see AMX’s Annual Report, which is available for consultation at www.americamovil.com and www.bmv.com.mx.
 
“…
 
Risks Relating to Our Businesses
 
Competition in the wireless industry is intense and could adversely affect the revenues and profitability of our business
 
Our wireless businesses face substantial competition from other wireless providers.  We also face competition from fixed-line telephone companies and, increasingly, other service providers such as cable, paging, trunking and Internet companies because of the trend towards convergence of telecommunication services.
 
Competition in our markets has intensified in recent periods, and we expect that it will continue to intensify in the future as a result of the entry of new competitors, the development of new technologies, products and services, and the auction of additional spectrum.  We also expect the current consolidation trend in the wireless industry to continue, as companies respond to the need for cost reduction and additional spectrum.  This trend may result in larger competitors with greater financial, technical, promotional and other resources to compete with our businesses.  Telefónica, S.A. (“Telefónica Móviles”), which has important operations in Mexico and Brazil, as well as other of our markets, consolidated its position as our largest regional competitor through several acquisitions.
 
Among other things, our competitors could:
 
·  provide increased handset subsidies;
 
·  offer higher commissions to retailers;
 
·  provide free airtime or other services (such as Internet access);
 
·  expand their networks faster; or
 
·  develop and deploy improved wireless technologies faster.
 
Competition can result in increases in advertising and promotional spending and reductions in prices for services and handsets.  In addition, portability requirements, which enable customers to switch wireless providers without changing their wireless numbers, have been introduced in some of our markets, including Mexico and Brazil, and may be introduced in other markets in the near future. These developments may lead to smaller operating margins, greater choices for customers, possible consumer confusion and increasing movement of customers among competitors, which may make it difficult for us to retain customers or add new customers.  The cost of adding new customers may also continue to increase, reducing profitability even if customer growth continues.
 
Our ability to compete successfully will depend on our coverage, the quality of our network and service, our rates, customer service, marketing and our ability to anticipate and respond to
 

 
32

 
UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.

various competitive factors affecting the telecommunications industry, including new services and technologies, changes in consumer preferences, demographic trends, economic conditions and discount pricing strategies by competitors.  If we are unable to respond to competition and compensate for declining prices by adding new customers, increasing usage and offering new services, our revenues and profitability could decline.
 
Changes in government regulation could hurt our businesses
 
Our businesses are subject to extensive government regulation and can be adversely affected by changes in law, regulation or regulatory policy.  The licensing, construction, operation, sale, resale and interconnection arrangements of wireless telecommunications systems in Latin America and elsewhere are regulated to varying degrees by government or regulatory authorities.  Any of these authorities having jurisdiction over our businesses could adopt or change regulations or take other actions that could adversely affect our operations.  In particular, the regulation of prices operators may charge for their services could have a material adverse effect on us by reducing our profit margins.
 
These risks are significant in all of the markets in which we operate.  See “Mexican Operations – Regulation” and “Non-Mexican Operations – Regulation” under Item 4.  The risks in our largest markets, for example, include the following.
 
· In Mexico, the business of Radiomóvil Dipsa, S.A. de C.V., or “Telcel,” is subject to extensive government regulation, principally by the Mexican Ministry of Communications and Transportation (Secretaría de Comunicaciones y Transportes, or “SCT”), the Federal Telecommunications Commission (Comisión Federal de Telecomunicaciones, or “Cofetel”), the Federal Antitrust Commission (Comisión Federal de Competencia, or “Cofeco”) and the Federal Consumer Bureau (Procuraduría Federal del Consumidor, or “Profeco”), and may be adversely affected by changes in law or by actions of Mexican regulatory authorities.  In particular, there has been extensive controversy and dispute in Mexico concerning the interconnection fees payable by local and long-distance operators to mobile operators.  If these disputes are resolved against us, the consequences for our business could be material.
 
·     In Brazil, our business is regulated principally by the Brazilian National Telecommunications Agency (Agência Nacional de Telecomunicações, or “Anatel”) and may be adversely affected by its actions or changes in its regulations.  In particular, Anatel has defined a series of cost-based methods, including the fully allocated cost methodology, for determining interconnection fees charged by operators belonging to an economic group with significant market power.  Anatel has not published all of the applicable regulations, but the implementation of the cost-based methodology is expected to take effect in 2010.  It is uncertain how Anatel will define the criteria for determining whether an operator belongs to an economic group with significant market power for purposes of this new regulation.  When these methods are ultimately implemented and if we are deemed to be an economic group with significant market power, the revenues and results of operations of our Brazilian operations may be affected.
 
  In Colombia, the Colombian Ministry of Communications (Ministerio de Comunicaciones, or “Ministry of Communications”) and the Colombian Telecommunications Regulation Commission (Comisión de Regulación de Telecomunicaciones, or “CRT”) are responsible for regulating and overseeing the telecommunications sector, including cellular operations.  In March 2009, the CRT issued a series of resolutions stating that Comunicación Celular, S.A. (“Comcel”), our Colombian subsidiary, has a dominant position in Colombia’s market for outgoing mobile services.  Under Colombian law, a market participant is considered to have a dominant position in a specified market if the regulators determine that it has the capacity to control the conditions in that market.  The CRT made its determination based on Comcel’s traffic, revenues and subscriber base.   The resolutions also included regulations that would require Comcel to charge rates (excluding access fees) for mobile-to-mobile calls outside the Comcel network (“off net”) that are no higher than the
 

 
33

 
UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.
fees charged for mobile-to-mobile calls within the Comcel network (“on net”).  CRT would monitor the rates by reviewing Comcel’s average revenue per minute on a quarterly basis.  The resolutions did not present a timetable for implementation of the regulations.  In April 2009, Comcel filed a request for review of the resolutions (recurso de reposición) with the CRT.  See “Legal Proceedings — Comcel Dominant Position” under Item 8.
 
In addition, changes in political administrations could lead to the adoption of policies concerning competition and taxation of communications services that may be detrimental to our operations throughout Latin America.  These restrictions, which may take the form of preferences for local over foreign ownership of communications licenses and assets, or for government over private ownership, may make it impossible for us to continue to develop our businesses.  These restrictions could result in our incurring losses of revenues and require capital investments all of which could materially adversely affect our businesses and results of operations.
 
Dominant carrier regulations could hurt our business by limiting our ability to pursue competitive and profitable strategies
 
Cofetel is authorized to impose specific requirements as to rates, service quality and information on any wireless operator that is determined by Cofeco to have substantial market power in a specific market.  In two investigations, Cofeco has issued preliminary reports (dictámenes preliminares) concluding that Telcel has substantial market power in specified markets.  We cannot predict what regulatory steps Cofetel might take if these determinations become final.  We believe that if dominant carrier regulations are imposed on our business in the future, they will likely reduce our flexibility to adopt competitive market policies and impose specific tariff requirements or other special regulations on us, such as additional requirements regarding disclosure of information or quality of service.  Any such new regulation could have a material adverse effect on our operations.
 
Cofeco is also conducting four investigations into whether Telcel has engaged in monopolistic practices.  Adverse determinations against Telcel in any of the ongoing investigations could also result in material fines, penalties or restrictions on our operations.
 
We will, in the future, have to acquire additional radio spectrum capacity in order to expand our customer base and maintain the quality of our services
 
Licensed radio spectrum is essential to our growth and the quality of our services, particularly for GSM and UMTS services and increased deployment of 3G networks to offer value-added services.  We can increase the density of our network, thus reducing our need for additional spectrum by building more cell and switch sites, but such measures are costly and would be subject to local restrictions and approvals, and they will not fully meet our needs.
 
In 2005, we acquired the right to use 10 megahertz in the 1900 megahertz spectrum in each of Mexico’s nine regions, through a public auction.  We also bid and won the auction for an additional 10 megahertz of capacity in three principal regions, but were subsequently prohibited from acquiring this additional spectrum based on restrictions imposed by Cofeco. We expect that government will conduct auctions for additional spectrum capacity during the second half of 2009 or 2010. We cannot assure that we will be allowed to participate in any new auctions for additional spectrum capacity in Mexico. Participation in spectrum auctions requires prior governmental authorization (including prior approval from Cofeco).
 
Our concessions and licenses are for fixed terms, and conditions may be imposed on their renewal
 
Our concessions and licenses have specified terms, ranging typically from 10 to 30 years, and are generally subject to renewal upon payment of a fee, but renewal is not assured.  The loss of, or
 

 
34

 
UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.

failure to renew, any one concession could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.  Our ability to renew concessions and the terms of renewal are subject to a number of factors beyond our control, including the prevalent regulatory and political environment at the time of renewal.  Fees are typically established at the time of renewal.  As a condition for renewal, we may be required to agree to new and stricter terms and service requirements.  For example, in order to renew our concession to provide services in Ecuador, we were required to pay U.S.$289 million in August 2008.  If our concessions are not renewed, we are required to transfer the assets covered by the concession to the government, generally for fair market value, although certain jurisdictions provide for other valuation methodologies.  In Mexico, we have important concessions expiring in 2010 and 2011, and the SCT may impose additional conditions in connection with the renewal of a concession.  See Note 1 to our audited consolidated financial statements.
 
In Mexico, the Mexican Federal Telecommunications Law (Ley Federal de Telecomunicaciones, or the “Telecommunications Law”) also gives certain rights to the Mexican government, including the right to revoke the concessions pursuant to an expropriation or to take over the management of Telcel’s networks, facilities and personnel in cases of imminent danger to national security, internal peace or the national economy, natural disasters and public unrest.
 
We continue to look for investment opportunities, and any future acquisitions and related financings could have a material effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition
 
We continue to look for other investment opportunities in telecommunication companies primarily in Latin America and the Caribbean, including in markets where we are already present, and we often have several possible acquisitions under consideration. For example, we may pursue further market consolidation opportunities in Argentina and Brazil depending on their terms and conditions.  Any future acquisitions and related financings could have a material effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, but we cannot give any assurances that we will complete any of them.  In addition, we may incur in significant costs and expenses as we integrate these companies in our systems, controls and networks.
 
We may be unsuccessful in addressing the challenges and risks presented by our investments in countries outside Mexico
 
We have invested in a growing number of telecommunications businesses outside our historical activity of providing wireless telecommunications services in Mexico, and we plan to continue to do so in the rest of Latin America and the Caribbean.  Whereas Mexico accounted for 63.0% of our total wireless subscribers as of December 31, 2002 and 71% of our consolidated revenues during 2002, it accounted for 30.9% of our total wireless subscribers as of December 31, 2008 and 39.1% of our consolidated revenues during 2008.  During that period, Brazil, as a result of rapid subscriber growth and the acquisitions of BSE S.A. and BCP S.A. (now Claro S.A.), increased its share of our total wireless subscribers from 16.3% as of December 31, 2002 to 21.2% as of December 31, 2008, and it accounted for 20.3% of our consolidated revenues during 2008.  These investments outside Mexico may involve risks to which we have not previously been exposed.  Some of the investments are in countries that may present different or greater risks, including from competition, than Mexico.  We cannot assure you that these investments will be successful.
 
We are subject to significant litigation
 
Some of our subsidiaries are subject to significant litigation, which if determined adversely to our interests may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects. In Mexico, for example, there are pending administrative investigations into whether Telcel has substantial market power and whether it has engaged in monopolistic practices, and there are legal proceedings regarding rates for interconnection with other

operators.  In Brazil, there are pending regulatory proceedings regarding the calculation of inflation-related adjustments due under our concessions with Anatel.  In Colombia, there are pending administrative proceedings against Comcel regarding alleged anti-competitive behavior.  Our significant litigation is described in “Legal Proceedings” under Item 8.
 
A system failure could cause delays or interruptions of service, which could cause us to lose customers and revenues
 
We will need to continue to provide our subscribers with reliable service over our network.  Some of the risks to our network and infrastructure include the following:
 
·  physical damage to access lines;
 
·  power surges or outages;
 
·  limitations on the use of our radiobases;
 
·     software defects;
 
·  natural disasters; and
 
·  disruptions beyond our control.
 
Disruptions may cause interruptions in service or reduced capacity for customers, either of which could cause us to lose subscribers and incur additional expenses.
 
If our current churn rate increases, our business could be negatively affected
 
The cost of acquiring a new subscriber is much higher than the cost of maintaining an existing subscriber.  Accordingly, subscriber deactivations, or “churn,” could have a material negative impact on our operating income, even if we are able to obtain one new subscriber for each lost subscriber.  Because a substantial majority of our subscribers are prepaid, we do not have long-term contracts with those subscribers.  Our weighted monthly average churn rate on a consolidated basis for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2007 was 2.9% and for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2008 was 2.8%.  If we experience an increase in our churn rate, our ability to achieve revenue growth could be materially impaired.  In addition, a decline in general economic conditions could lead to an increase in churn, particularly among our prepaid subscribers.
 
We depend on key suppliers and vendors to provide equipment that we need to operate our business
 
We depend upon various key suppliers and vendors, including Apple, Nokia, Sony-Ericsson, Huawei, Motorola, LG and Samsung, to provide us with handsets and network equipment, which we need to operate our business.  If these suppliers or vendors fail to provide equipment or service to us on a timely basis, we could experience disruptions, which could have an adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.  In addition, we might be unable to satisfy the requirements contained on our concessions.
 
Our ability to pay dividends and repay debt depends on our subsidiaries' ability to transfer income and dividends to us
 
We are a holding company with no significant assets other than the shares of our subsidiaries and our holdings of cash and marketable securities.  Our ability to pay dividends and repay debt depends on the continued transfer to us of dividends and other income from our subsidiaries.

The ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends and make other transfers to us may be limited by various regulatory, contractual and legal constraints that affect our subsidiaries.
 
Risks Relating to the Wireless Industry Generally
 
Changes in the wireless industry could affect our future financial performance
 
The wireless communications industry is experiencing significant changes as new technologies are developed that offer subscribers an array of choices for their communications needs.  These changes include, among others, regulatory changes, evolving industry standards, ongoing improvements in the capacity and quality of digital technology, shorter development cycles for new products, and changes in end-user needs and preferences.  In Mexico and in the other countries in which we conduct business, there is uncertainty as to the pace and extent of growth in subscriber demand, and as to the extent to which prices for airtime and line rental may continue to decline.  If we are unable to meet future advances in competing technologies on a timely basis or at an acceptable cost, we could lose subscribers to our competitors.  In general, the development of new services in our industry requires us to anticipate and respond to the varied and continually changing demands of our subscribers.  We may not be able to accurately predict technological trends or the success of new services in the market.  In addition, there could be legal or regulatory restraints to our introduction of new services.  If these services fail to gain acceptance in the marketplace, or if costs associated with implementation and completion of the introduction of these services materially increase, our ability to retain and attract subscribers could be adversely affected.
 
There are three existing digital technologies for wireless communications, none of which is compatible with the others.  In the past, Telcel and certain of our international businesses used time division multiple access (TDMA) technology for their digital networks, while certain of our other international businesses used code division multiple access (CDMA) as their digital wireless technology.  We have introduced global system for mobile communications (GSM) technology in all of our markets (excluding TracFone Wireless, Inc.).   Also, Telcel and all of our international businesses (excluding TracFone Wireless, Inc.) launched new networks using the UMTS and HSDPA third generation technology between 2007 and 2009.  We expect to complete the deployment of the third generation technology in the following years.  If future wireless technologies that gain widespread acceptance are not compatible with the technologies we use, we may be required to make capital expenditures in excess of our current forecasts in order to upgrade and replace our technology and infrastructure.
 
The intellectual property rights utilized by us, our suppliers or service providers may infringe on intellectual property rights owned by others
 
Some of our products and services use intellectual property that we own or license from others.  We also provide content services we receive from content distributors, such as ring tones, text games, video games, wallpapers or screensavers, and outsource services to service providers, including billing and customer care functions, that incorporate or utilize intellectual property.  We and some of our suppliers, content distributors and service providers have received, and may receive in the future, assertions and claims from third parties that the products or software utilized by us or our suppliers, content distributors and service providers infringe on the patents or other intellectual property rights of these third parties.  These claims could require us or an infringing supplier, content distributor or service provider to cease engaging in certain activities, including selling, offering and providing the relevant products and services.  Such claims and assertions also could subject us to costly litigation and significant liabilities for damages or royalty payments, or require us to cease certain activities or to cease selling certain products and services.

We may incur significant losses from wireless fraud and from our failure to successfully manage collections
 
Our wireless businesses incur losses and costs associated with the unauthorized use of these wireless networks, particularly their analog cellular networks.  These costs include administrative and capital costs associated with detecting, monitoring and reducing the incidence of fraud.  Fraud also affects interconnection costs, capacity costs, administrative costs and payments to other carriers for unbillable fraudulent roaming. Although we seek to combat this problem through the deployment of anti-fraud technologies and other measures, we cannot assure you that these efforts will be effective or that fraud will not result in material costs for us in the future.
 
Cloning, which is one form of wireless fraud, involves the use of scanners and other electronic devices to obtain illegally telephone numbers and electronic serial numbers during cellular transmission.  Stolen telephone and serial number combinations can be programmed into a cellular phone and used to obtain improper access to cellular networks.  Roaming fraud occurs when a phone programmed with a number stolen from one of our subscribers is used to place fraudulent calls from another carrier’s market, resulting in a roaming fee charged to us that cannot be collected from the subscriber.
 
Concerns about health risks relating to the use of wireless handsets and base stations may adversely affect our business
 
Portable communications devices have been alleged to pose health risks, including cancer, due to radio frequency emissions from these devices.  Lawsuits have been filed in the United States against certain participants in the wireless industry alleging various adverse health consequences as a result of wireless phone usage, and our businesses may be subject to similar litigation in the future.  Research and studies are ongoing, and there can be no assurance that further research and studies will not demonstrate a link between radio frequency emissions and health concerns.  Any negative findings in these studies could adversely affect the use of wireless handsets and, as a result, our future financial performance.
 
Developments in the telecommunications sector have resulted, and may in the future result, in substantial write-downs of the carrying value of certain of our assets
 
We review on a annual basis, or more frequently where the circumstances require, the value of each of our assets and subsidiaries, to assess whether those carrying values can be supported by the future cash flows expected to be derived from such assets. Whenever we consider that due to changes in the economic, regulatory, business or political environment, our goodwill, intangible assets or fixed assets may be impaired, we consider the necessity of performing certain valuation tests, which may result in impairment charges. The recognition of impairments of tangible, intangible and financial assets results in a non-cash charge on the income statement, which could adversely affect our results of operations.  For example, during 2007 and 2008, we recorded charges in respect of certain analog, TDMA and CDMA equipment in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Ecuador following our decision to discontinue using the equipment.
 
Risks Relating to Our Controlling Shareholders, Capital Structure and Transactions with Affiliates
 
Members of one family may be deemed to control us
 
According to reports of beneficial ownership of our shares filed with the SEC, Carlos Slim Helú, together with his sons and daughters (together, the “Slim Family”), including his son and chairman of our board of directors, Patrick Slim Domit, may be deemed to control us.  The Slim Family may be able to elect a majority of the members of our board of directors and to determine the outcome of other actions requiring a vote of our shareholders, except in very limited cases
 

 
38

 
UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.

that require a vote of the holders of L Shares.  We cannot assure you that the Slim Family will not take actions that are inconsistent with your interests.
 
We have significant transactions with affiliates
 
We engage in transactions with Teléfonos de México, S.A.B. de C.V., or “Telmex,” Telmex Internacional, S.A.B. de C.V., or “Telmex Internacional,” and certain of their subsidiaries and with certain subsidiaries of Grupo Carso, S.A.B. de C.V. and Grupo Financiero Inbursa, S.A.B. de C.V., all of which are affiliates of América Móvil.  Many of these transactions occur in the ordinary course of business and, in the case of transactions with Telmex, are subject to applicable telecommunications regulations in Mexico.  Transactions with affiliates may create the potential for conflicts of interest.
 
We also make investments together with affiliated companies, sell our investments to related parties and buy investments from related parties.  We may pursue joint investments in the telecommunications industry with Telmex and Telmex International.  For more information about our transactions with affiliates see “Related Party Transactions” under Item 7.
 
Our bylaws restrict transfers of shares in some circumstances
 
Our bylaws provide that any acquisition or transfer of more than 10% of our capital stock by any person or group of persons acting together requires the approval of our Board of Directors.  If you acquire or transfer more than 10% of our capital stock, you will not be able to do so without the approval of our Board of Directors.
 
The protections afforded to minority shareholders in Mexico are different from those in the United States
 
Under Mexican law, the protections afforded to minority shareholders are different from those in the United States.  In particular, the law concerning fiduciary duties of directors is not as fully developed as in other jurisdictions, there is no procedure for class actions, and there are different procedural requirements for bringing shareholder lawsuits.  As a result, in practice it may be more difficult for minority shareholders of América Móvil to enforce their rights against us or our directors or controlling shareholder than it would be for shareholders of a company incorporated in another jurisdiction, such as the United States.
 
Holders of L Shares and L Share ADSs have limited voting rights, and holders of ADSs may vote only through the depositary
 
Our bylaws provide that holders of L Shares are not permitted to vote except on such limited matters as, among others, the transformation or merger of América Móvil or the cancellation of registration of the L Shares with the National Securities Registry (Registro Nacional de Valores) maintained by the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission (Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores, or “CNBV”) or any stock exchange on which they are listed.  If you hold L Shares or L Share ADSs, you will not be able to vote on most matters, including the declaration of dividends, that are subject to a shareholder vote in accordance with our bylaws.
 
Holders of ADSs are not entitled to attend shareholders’ meetings, and they may only vote through the depositary
 
Under our bylaws, a shareholder is required to deposit its shares with a custodian in order to attend a shareholders’ meeting.  A holder of ADSs will not be able to meet this requirement, and accordingly is not entitled to attend shareholders’ meetings.  A holder of ADSs is entitled to instruct the depositary as to how to vote the shares represented by ADSs, in accordance with
 

 
39

 
UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.

procedures provided for in the deposit agreements, but a holder of ADSs will not be able to vote its shares directly at a shareholders’ meeting or to appoint a proxy to do so.
 
Mexican law and our bylaws restrict the ability of non-Mexican shareholders to invoke the protection of their governments with respect to their rights as shareholders
 
As required by Mexican law, our bylaws provide that non-Mexican shareholders shall be considered as Mexicans in respect of their ownership interests in América Móvil and shall be deemed to have agreed not to invoke the protection of their governments in certain circumstances.  Under this provision, a non-Mexican shareholder is deemed to have agreed not to invoke the protection of his own government by asking such government to interpose a diplomatic claim against the Mexican government with respect to the shareholder’s rights as a shareholder, but is not deemed to have waived any other rights it may have, including any rights under the U.S. securities laws, with respect to its investment in América Móvil.  If you invoke such governmental protection in violation of this provision, your shares could be forfeited to the Mexican government.
 
Our bylaws may only be enforced in Mexico
 
Our bylaws provide that legal actions relating to the execution, interpretation or performance of the bylaws may be brought only in Mexican courts.  As a result, it may be difficult for non-Mexican shareholders to enforce their shareholder rights pursuant to the bylaws.
 
It may be difficult to enforce civil liabilities against us or our directors, officers and controlling persons
 
América Móvil is a sociedad anónima bursátil de capital variable organized under the laws of Mexico, with its principal place of business (domicilio social) in Mexico City, and most of our directors, officers and controlling persons reside outside the United States.  In addition, all or a substantial portion of our assets and their assets are located outside of the United States.  As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States on such persons or to enforce judgments against them, including in any action based on civil liabilities under the U.S. federal securities laws.  There is doubt as to the enforceability against such persons in Mexico, whether in original actions or in actions to enforce judgments of U.S. courts, of liabilities based solely on the U.S. federal securities laws.
 
You may not be entitled to participate in future preemptive rights offerings
 
Under Mexican law, if we issue new shares for cash as part of certain capital increases, we must grant our shareholders the right to purchase a sufficient number of shares to maintain their existing ownership percentage in América Móvil.  Rights to purchase shares in these circumstances are known as preemptive rights.  Our shareholders do not have preemptive rights in certain circumstances such as mergers, convertible debentures, public offers and placement of repurchased shares.  We may not legally be permitted to allow holders of ADSs or holders of L Shares or A Shares in the United States to exercise any preemptive rights in any future capital increase unless we file a registration statement with the SEC, with respect to that future issuance of shares.  At the time of any future capital increase, we will evaluate the costs and potential liabilities associated with filing a registration statement with the SEC and any other factors that we consider important to determine whether we will file such a registration statement.
 
We cannot assure you that we will file a registration statement with the SEC to allow holders of ADSs or U.S. holders of L Shares or A Shares to participate in a preemptive rights offering.  As a result, the equity interest of such holders in América Móvil may be diluted proportionately.  In addition, under current Mexican law, it is not practicable for the depositary to sell preemptive rights and distribute the proceeds from such sales to ADS holders.

Risks Relating to Developments in Mexico and Other Countries
 
Latin American and Caribbean economic, political and social conditions may adversely affect our business
 
Our financial performance may be significantly affected by general economic, political and social conditions in the markets where we operate, particularly Mexico, Brazil and Central America.  Many countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, including Mexico, Brazil and Argentina have suffered significant economic, political and social crises in the past, and these events may occur again in the future.  Many of these countries, including Ecuador, El Salvador and Panama, recently held elections and others including Honduras, Uruguay and Chile will hold presidential elections in 2009.  We cannot predict whether changes in administrations will result in changes in governmental policy and whether such changes will affect our business.  Instability in the region has been caused by many different factors, including:
 
·  significant governmental influence over local economies;
 
·  substantial fluctuations in economic growth;
 
·  high levels of inflation;
 
·  changes in currency values;
 
·  exchange controls or restrictions on expatriation of earnings;
 
·  high domestic interest rates;
 
·  wage and price controls;
 
·  changes in governmental economic or tax policies;
 
·  imposition of trade barriers;
 
·  unexpected changes in regulation; and
 
·  overall political, social and economic instability.
 
Adverse economic, political and social conditions in Latin America may inhibit demand for wireless services and create uncertainty regarding our operating environment, which could have a material adverse effect on our company.
 
Our business may be especially affected by conditions in Mexico and Brazil, our two principal markets.  Mexico has experienced a prolonged period of slow growth since 2001, primarily as a result of the downturn in the U.S. economy.  According to preliminary data, during 2008, Mexico’s gross domestic product, or “GDP,” decreased by 1.6% in real terms.  In 2007, GDP grew by 4.7%.  Mexico has also experienced high levels of inflation and high domestic interest rates.  The annual rate of inflation, as measured by changes in the National Consumer Price Index as published by the Banco de México, was 6.5% for 2008.
 
Brazil has also experienced slow economic growth over the past several years.  Brazil’s GDP grew by an estimated 1.2% in real terms in 2008, compared to a growth rate of 5.4% in 2007.  Brazil has in the past experienced extremely high rates of inflation, with annual rates of inflation during the last years reaching as high as 2,489% in 1993 and 929% in 1994, as measured by the Brazilian National Consumer Price Index.  More recently, Brazil’s rates of inflation were 3.1% in

2006, 4.5% in 2007, and 6.4% in 2008.  Inflation, governmental measures to combat inflation and public speculation about possible future actions have in the past had significant negative effects on the Brazilian economy.
 
Our business may be affected by political developments in Latin America and the Caribbean.  We cannot predict whether these recent events will affect our business or our ability to renew our licenses and concessions, to maintain or increase our market share or profitability or will have an impact on future strategic acquisition efforts.
 
Depreciation or fluctuation of the currencies in which we conduct operations relative to the U.S. dollar could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations
 
We are affected by fluctuations in the value of the currencies in which we conduct operations compared to the U.S. dollar, in which a substantial portion of our indebtedness is denominated.  Changes in the value of the various currencies in which we conduct operations against the Mexican peso, which we use as our reporting currency in our financial statements, and against the U.S. dollar may result in exchange losses or gains on our net U.S. dollar-denominated indebtedness and accounts payable.  In  2007 and 2006, changes in currency exchange rates led us to report foreign exchange gains of  Ps. 2,463 million and Ps. 2,321 million, respectively.  In 2008, we reported foreign exchange losses of Ps. 13,686 million.  In addition, currency fluctuations between the Mexican peso and the currencies of our non-Mexican subsidiaries affect our results as reported in Mexican pesos.  Currency fluctuations are expected to continue to affect our financial income and expense.
 
Major devaluation or depreciation of any such currencies may also result in disruption of the international foreign exchange markets and may limit our ability to transfer or to convert such currencies into U.S. dollars and other currencies for the purpose of making timely payments of interest and principal on our indebtedness.  The Mexican government does not currently restrict, and for many years has not restricted, the right or ability of Mexican or foreign persons or entities to convert pesos into U.S. dollars or to transfer other currencies out of Mexico.  The government could, however, institute restrictive exchange rate policies in the future.  Also, the Brazilian government may impose temporary restrictions on the conversion of Brazilian reals into foreign currencies and on the remittance to foreign investors of proceeds from investments in Brazil.  Brazilian law permits the government to impose these restrictions whenever there is a serious imbalance in Brazil’s balance of payments or a reason to foresee a serious imbalance.

5.2.   
Risk Factors Related to the Offers
 
 
AMX is controlled by its principal shareholders
 
Under certain rules, following the completion of the Offers, the Slim Family, including Mr. Patrick Slim Domit, AMX’s Chairman, will be deemed to control AMX and, as a result, they will have the ability to appoint a majority of the members of the board of directors of AMX and determine the outcome of any vote with respect to any matter requiring approval by its shareholders meeting, except for certain limited matters that require the affirmative vote of the holders of AMX’s Series L shares.
 

 
42

 
UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.

The Offers may affect the market price of AMX’s shares
 
Upon consummation of the Offers, the market price of AMX’s shares could fluctuate and AMX cannot guarantee that any such fluctuation will be favorable.
 
AMX’s balance sheet after completion of the Offers could differ from its pro forma balance sheet
 
The pro forma financial information of América Móvil included in this Disclosure Statement to reflect its balance sheet upon completion of the Offers, is subject to change depending on the outcome of its operations and the effect of other factors beyond the control of AMX’s, TELECOM’s and TELINT’s managements.
 
AMX’s failure to acquire a substantial majority of the outstanding capital stock of TELECOM and TELINT may affect its ability to complete any post-closing reorganization of the combined company, which could reduce or delay the cost savings or revenue benefits to the combined company
 
AMX could complete the Offers but hold less than 100% (one hundred percent) of the TELECOM Shares and the TELINT Shares, and not be able to obtain the cancellation of the registration of the TELECOM Shares and the TELINT Shares if it does not meet the conditions prescribed by Mexican law. The existence of minority shareholders at TELECOM and TELINT may generate additional expenses and result in administrative inefficiencies. For example, AMX may be precluded from conducting certain types of reorganizations involving TELCOM and/or TELINT and their respective subsidiaries that would result in significant benefits to the combined entity. In addition, AMX may be required to maintain separate committees at the AMX, TELECOM and TELINT boards of directors, and may be subject to separate reporting requirements with Mexican authorities. In addition, all transactions among AMX, TELECOM and TELINT would be required under Mexican law to be on an arm’s length basis, which may limit AMX’s ability to achieve certain savings and to conduct the joint operations as a single business unit in order to achieve its strategic objectives.  As a result, it may take longer and be more difficult to effect any post-closing reorganization and the full amount of the cost synergies and revenue benefits for the combined company may not be obtained or may only be obtained over a longer period of time.  This may adversely affect AMX’s ability to achieve the expected amount of cost synergies and revenue benefits after the Offers are completed.
 
AMX may fail to realize the business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings and other benefits anticipated from, or may incur unanticipated costs associated with, the Offersr and its results of operations, financial condition and the price of its shares may suffer
 
There is no assurance that our acquisition of the TELECOM Shares and the TELINT Shares by AMX will achieve the business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings and other benefits that AMX anticipates. AMX believes the consideration for the Offers is justified by the business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings and other benefits it expects to achieve by combining its operations with TELECOM and TELINT. However, these expected business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings and other benefits may not develop and other assumptions upon which the offer consideration was determined may prove to be incorrect, as, among other things, such assumptions were based on publicly available information.
 
AMX may be unable to fully implement our business plans and strategies for the combined businesses due to regulatory limitations. Each of AMX and TELINT is subject to extensive government regulation, and AMX may face regulatory restrictions in the provision of combined services in some of the countries in which it operates. For example, in Brazil, América Móvil’s and TELINT’s businesses are regulated by the Brazilian National Telecommunications Agency, or “Anatel”. Upcoming regulations by Anatel, which focus on economic groups with significant market powers, would impose new cost-based methodologies for determining interconnection fees charged by operators in Brazil. AMX cannot predict whether Anatel would impose specific regulations that would affect its combined operations more adversely than they would affect its individual operations. In Mexico, Telcel is part of an industry-wide investigation by the Federal Competition Commission to determine whether any operators possess substantial market power

or engage in certain monopolistic practices in certain segments of the Mexican telecommunications market. TELECOM is the direct holder of approximately 59.4% (fifty nine point four percent) of the outstanding capital stock of Telmex, and AMX will be acquiring part of Telmex through the TELECOM Offer. AMX cannot predict whether the Federal Competition Commission or other governmental entities would renew or revise its investigations to take into account the combined businesses.
 
Under any of these circumstances, the business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings and other benefits anticipated by AMX to result from the reorganization may not be achieved as expected, or at all, or may be delayed. To the extent that AMX incurs higher integration costs or achieve lower revenue benefits or fewer cost savings than expected, its results of operations, financial condition and the price of its shares may suffer.

7.      
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATION AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
 
(In billions of pesos, unless otherwise indicated)
 
7.1.   
AMX
 
As of December 31, 2009, AMX had 200,972,000 cellular subscribers and 3,789,000 fixed-line subscribers, or a total of 204,761,000 subscribers.
 
In 2008, AMX had 182,724,000 cellular subscribers and 3,844,000 fixed-line subscribers. In 2009, AMX’s number of subscribers increased by 9.8% or 18,193,000 net new subscribers.
 
AMX’s revenues from its services rose to Ps.349.1 billion, and its total revenues rose to Ps. 394.17 billion.
 
In 2009, the revenues generated by AMX’s services increased by 17.1% or Ps.50.9 billion. Of such increase, 7.98% or Ps.23.8 billion was attributable to an organic increase as a result of its value added services, and 9.12% or Ps.27.2 billion was attributable to the fluctuation in the exchange rates, including the appreciation of the real with respect to the peso.
 
AMX’s operating profit rose by 9.5%, partly as a result of an additional Ps.4.4 billion in depreciation expenses incurred in connection with the impairment of the useful life of its Brazilian telephone plant. Excluding such additional expense, AMX’s operating profit increased by 14.2%, consistent with the increase in total revenues.
 
In 2008, AMX had income before taxes, depreciation and amortization, of Ps.159 billion (margin of 40.3%), compared with Ps.138 billion in 2008 (margin of 40.0%). This represented an increase of 14.8% in absolute terms, slightly above the increase in total revenue.
 
In 2009, AMX net profit increased to Ps.70.5 billion, or 18.5% when compared to the net profit of Ps.59.5 billion in 2008, as a result of an increase in its operating profit and a significant reduction of Ps.10.9 billion in its cost of financing, notwithstanding a Ps.8.8 billion in its tax expense.
 
The increase in AMX’s tax expense in 2009 was due to the escalation of its deferred tax liabilities as a result of a change in the statutory tax rate, and to the fact that in 2008 it recorded a tax credits of approximately Ps.4.5 billion in connection with the amortization of the losses suffered by certain foreign subsidiaries.
 
AMX’s effective tax rate, as a percentage of its pre-tax profit, increased from 25% in 2008 to 28.9% in 2009, as a result of the aforementioned facts.
 
AMX’s peso-denominated debt, net, decreased from Ps.121.3 billion in 2008 to Ps.83.4 billion in 2009, as a result of the amortization of net debt in the amount of Ps.37.4 billion.
 
AMX made capital investment of Ps.45.4 billion in expansion and technology, and contributed to the market Ps.50.4 billion through dividend payments and the repurchase of shares.
 
7.2.   
TELMEX
 
As of the end of 2009, Telmex had 15,882,000 telephone lines, including 703,000 public telephone lines and 1.7 million social telephone lines. In 2009, the number of telephone lines past due for more than 60 days, which at the end of 2008 amounted to 1.1 million, for the first time decreased by 1.2 million. In 2009, Telmex’s Infinitum broadband services (ADSL), its fastest connection technology, reported an increase of 1,514,000 services, or 6.5 million new subscribers.
 

 
46

 
UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION. SPANISH VERSION AVAILABLE AT: WWW.AMERICAMOVIL.COM. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THIS ENGLISH TRANSLATION AND THE SPANISH VERSION, THE LATTER WILL PREVAIL.

In 2009, Telmex had total revenues of Ps.119.1 billion, which represented a 4% decrease with respect to the amount reported in 2008.

In 2009, TELINT reported an operating income of Ps.92.5 billion, which represented an increase of Ps.16.5 billion, or 21.8%, with respect to the operating income of Ps.76 billion reported in 2008. This increase was the result of TELINT’s organic growth and the appreciation of various foreign currencies, including primarily the Brazilian real, with respect to the Mexican peso.
 
Virtually all revenue items grew in 2009, with TELINT’s local, Internet and pay television services contributing the largest increases.
 
TELINT’s operating profit grew by Ps.2.1 billion or 23.9%, from Ps.8.9 billion in 2008 to Ps.11 billion in 2009. This increase was largely attributable to an increase in operating income and the appreciation of various foreign currencies, including primarily the Brazilian real, with respect to the Mexican peso, and to a decrease in operating expenses.
 
The operating profit represented 11.7% and 11.9% of the operating income in 2008 and 2009, respectively.
 
TELINT’s earnings before taxes, depreciation and amortization, were Ps.22.6 billion, representing a margin of 24.4%, compared with Ps.17.9 billion and an operating margin of 23.5% in 2008.
 
In 2009, TELINT’s net profit grew significantly, to Ps.9,5 billion, which represented an increase of 69.8% compared with the net profit of Ps.5.6 billion reported in 2008, as a reflection of the increase in operating expenses and foreign exchange gains.
 
As of December 31, 2009, TELINT’s had a net debt of approximately Ps.23.2 billion, which represented a Ps.5.1 billion increase with respect to its net debt of Ps.18.1 billion in 2008.

Notes to the Financial Information for the Period From January 1 to December 31, 2009.
 
1.  
Basis for the Preparation of the Pro Forma Balance Sheet for Purposes of the Offers
 
(a)  
Basis
 
The pro-forma financial information included in the Disclosure Statement, consists of the general pro-forma balance sheets as of December 31, 2009 of AMX and subsidiaries, Telmex and subsidiaries, TELINT and subsidiaries, the non consolidated balance sheet of TELECOM as of December 31, 2009, as well as the general pro-forma balance sheet of the combination of said entities, which is presented in compliance with Mexican FRS.
 
As of December 31, 2009, TELECOM owned 59.4% (fifty-nine point four per cent) of the outstanding shares of Telmex, and 60.7% (sixty point seven per cent) of the outstanding shares of TELINT.
 
TELECOM is a holding company whose principal activity is the ownership of shares representing the capital stock of Telmex and TELINT. It does not have any employees or operational revenues.
 
AMX, as well as Telmex and TELINT, operate in the telecommunications sector, providing fixed and mobile services, as well as other related services.
 
The companies involved in the transaction described in the Disclosure Statement, operate in 18 countries in the Americas and the Caribbean.
 
The accompanying general pro-forma balance sheet considers the transaction as a corporate reorganization accounted as a combination of entities under common control, in other words, as a sum of the balances of the involved entities, having previously eliminated intercompany operations.
 
(b)  
Conversion of the Financial Information of Foreign Subsidiaries and Affiliates
 
The consolidated financial statements are denominated in Pesos, as the currency corresponding to the economic environment of the transactions, which is to register operations and to report consolidated financial statements.
 
The accounting registers of foreign subsidiaries and affiliates are prepared in each country’s functional currency and in accordance with each country’s accounting principles.
 
In order to consolidate the individual financial statements of each subsidiary, said individual financial statements are translated into Mexican FRS, and, subsequently are incorporated in the consolidated financial statement considering the economic environment of each specific foreign subsidiary.
 
In case of economies with inflationary economic environment, the inflationary effects of the specific country are recognized, and, subsequently, are restated into Pesos using the current exchange rate at the closing of the accounting period for both the balance sheet and the income statement. In case of economies with a non-inflationary economic environment, the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary are restated into Pesos using the current exchange rate at the end of the fiscal year, the stockholders’ equity is restated using a historical exchange rate and the income statement is restated using the average exchange rate for the applicable month.
 
In connection with foreign affiliated companies, these are incorporated using the equity method once their corresponding financial statements are translated into Mexican FRS, and subsequently restated into Pesos.

(c)  
Use of Estimates
 
During the preparation of the figures shown in the general pro-forma balance sheet, estimates and other assumptions were used and available information as of the date of the financial statements was considered. Said estimates could vary from the actual information.
 
2.  
Effects of the Offers
 
Ownership Structure
 
As of December 31, 2009, TELECOM held approximately 59.4% (fifty-nine point four per cent) of Telmex’s outstanding shares, and approximately 60.7% (sixty point seven per cent) of TELINT’s outstanding shares. Once consummated the Offers and after the corporate restructure, TELECOM’s ownership in TELINT and Telmex will be regrouped into AMX, in addition to the minority stake in TELINT to be acquired.
 
Composition of the Pro Forma Balance Sheet and Summary Description of the Eliminations
 
The general pro-forma balance consists of a specific column for each entity involved, a subtotal column, an eliminations column, a column corresponding to the acquisition of the minority stake in TELINT which corresponds to approximately 39.3% (thirty-nine point three) of the capital stock currently held by minority shareholders, and a column of the total balance of the combination of the involved entities. The information relating to TELECOM corresponds to the non-consolidated balance sheet where TELECOM’s investment in Telmex and TELINT was valuated using the equity method in compliance with Mexican FRS. The eliminations made to the general pro-forma balance sheet are described below.
 
Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable
 
The amounts eliminated in accounts payable, related party accounts payable, taxes payable, related parties accounts receivable and accrued liabilities, correspond to eliminations carried out between the involved entities. The main services rendered and/or received by the involved are: interconnection services, sales of handsets and accessories, long distance charges, sale of airtime, sale and lease of corporate links and networks, call traffic, lease of physical space, as well as other operating services, such as technical assistance.
 
In addition, certain cash flows are sent by Telmex and TELINT to Telmex, as a result of advancement and reimbursement of withholding tax which arise from tax consolidation.
 
Elimination of the Investments in Subsidiaries
 
Amounts shown in the permanent and other investment item under the eliminations column were eliminated as a result of the TELECOM’s direct investment in Telmex and TELINT, which were valuated using the equity method. Likewise, the indirect investment TELECOM has in Telmex and TELINT, via its subsidiaries Empresas y Controles en Comunicaciones, S.A. de C.V., and Multimedia Corporativo, S.A. de C.V., is eliminated. Said subsidiaries have no operational revenues and their only assets are represented by insignificant cash.
