Vienna, 25 February 2014: Today the Telekom Austria Group (VSE: TKA,
OTC US: TKAGY) announces that yesterday it received the following
statement by América Móvil S.A.B. de C.V (América Móvil) on market
rumours relating to a possible tie up of Österreichische
Industrieholding AG (ÖIAG) and América Móvil as to Telekom Austria AG
(TKA):

"América Móvil confirms that since its initial investment in TKA it
has had discussions with different stakeholders of TKA, including
OIAG, to explore mutual cooperation aspects in the field of
telecommunications. Also, America Móvil confirms that formal
discussions could be started about a potential shareholders'
syndicate agreement between ÖIAG and América Móvil Group as
shareholders in TKA. However, any contacts on this are currently at a
very early stage. It is unclear whether discussions will enter a
critical negotiation phase or result in any shareholders' syndicate
agreement.

Currently no agreement, in whichever form, and no common
understanding exists between ÖIAG and América Móvil in relation to
TKA."
