Convergence, a confirmed strategy Belgacom started its convergence strategy years ago, striving for a gradual but decisive implementation towards one integrated company. Buy-out minority stake Vodafone Belgacom owns 100% Proximus Aug 2006 April 2007 Launch of Product bundels/pack s June 2007 From ‘Product’ to ‘Customer- centric structure’ Oct 2008 S&S integration phase I April 2009 “All-in- One” convergent pack Belgacom acquires 100% of Telindus Jan 2006 Jan 2010 Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting Integration legal entities

Convergence, driven by changing customer needs Belgacom Customer needs are changing. Customers are looking for: More freedom More simplicity More value for their money Boundaries between Fixed and Mobile technologies are fading. Belgacom very well positioned to act on these evolutions through “Convergence”.

Convergence supported by a nationwide, high quality mobile and fixed network Fixed Network Mobile Network Coverage (% of population – Q3 2009) : ADSL : % - world record Belgacom TV : 87 % Broadway : VDSL equipment Fiber (FTTC) VDSL : >71 % Among top 5 world-wide € 500 Mio invested YTD Coverage (% of population – Q3 2009) : 2G Outdoor : 99.98% 3G Outdoor : >91% € 475 Mio invested

Convergence in Products & Services Convergence for households ‘Packs’: Bundling of fixed and/or mobile products Belgacom has a relationship with ¾ Belgian households >40% of residential customers have 2 products or more Up-selling and cross-selling opportunities in order to increase stickiness End September 454k Packs sold Convergence for professional customers Provide full end-to-end fixed, mobile & IT solutions Attractive offers for professional customers e.g. flat rate in-company calling for fixed & mobile + + +

The need to take convergence one step further, creating more flexibility SUCCESSFULLY PROGRESSION at the level of customer experience, organizational development and operational synergies. However, MANY ORGANIZATIONAL CONSTRAINTS REMAIN. E.g : Complex matrix organization, limits operational synergies Different legal framework constraint to align HR-policies Limited flexibility to upgrade skill-set along with introduction of new technologies Difficult resource capacity allocation across legal entities EXTERNAL FACTORS REQUIRE MORE ORGANIZATIONAL FLEXIBILITY: Increased competition on converged offers Slowing market growth in traditional line of business Extended shopping hours

Integration is the path forward To exploit the full benefits of convergence, we need to gain flexibility by removing current organization constraints by evolving towards a fully integrated company Therefore, we propose to integrate the subsidiaries that support our convergent strategy into Belgacom SA : Belgacom Mobile, Telindus Group (only the national activities), Telindus, Telindus Sourcing and Belgacom Skynet
