Announcement According to § 91ff Austrian Stock Exchange Act

Vienna, 25 April 2014: Today the Telekom Austria Group (VSE: TKA, OTC US:
TKAGY) was informed by Schönherr Rechtsanwälte GmbH, representing América
Móvil, S.A.B. de C.V. ("América Móvil"), Sercotel, S.A. de C.V. ("Sercotel"),
and Carso Telecom B.V. ("Carso Telecom") about the following:

"On behalf of our clients we notify you in accordance with Section 91 et seq.
Austrian Stock Exchange Act ("SEA") about a change in major shareholdings in
Telekom Austria Aktiengesellschaft (ISIN: AT0000720008), Lassallestrasse 9,
1020 Vienna ("Telekom Austria AG" or "Issuer"):

Carso Telecom B.V. is a company established under Dutch Law which is via
Sercotel controlled by América Móvil as defined in Section 92 no 4 SEA:
Sercotel is a wholly-owned subsidiary of América Móvil and Sercotel holds 100 %
of the shares in Carso Telecom.

Hitherto América Móvil directly held 7,935,700 shares with voting rights issued
by Telekom Austria AG corresponding to 1.7914 % of the voting rights in the
Issuer as well as indirectly via Carso Telecom 110,841,174 shares with voting
rights issued by Telekom Austria AG corresponding to 25.0206 % of the voting
rights in the Issuer. Therefore, América Móvil directly and indirectly hitherto
held a total of 118,776,874 shares with voting rights issued by Telekom Austria
AG corresponding to 26.8119 % of the voting rights in the Issuer.

Österreichische Industrieholding AG, registered under 80286v ("ÖIAG") currently
holds 125,917,735 shares with voting rights issued by Telekom Austria AG
corresponding to 28.4239 % of the voting rights in the Issuer.

On 23.04.2014 Carso Telecom and ÖIAG concluded a conditional shareholders?
agreement ("Syndicate Agreement") regarding their shareholdings in Telekom
Austria AG. This conditional Syndicate Agreement results in the obligation
pursuant to Section 91a para 7 SEA to aggregate all voting rights within the
meaning of Sections 91 to 92 SEA. As a result voting rights pursuant to
Sections 91 and 92 SEA and pursuant to Section 91a SEA are attributable to
Carso Telecom and América Móvil as follows:

Carso Telecom aggregated 236,758,909 / 53.444 % (thresholds 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%
and 50% crossed), according to Section 91 SEA 110,841,174 / 25.0206 % and
according to Sections 91a, 92 SEA 125,917,735 / 28.4239 %;

América Móvil aggregated 244,694,609 / 55.2358 % (thresholds 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%
and 50% crossed), according to Sections 91, 92 SEA 118,776,874 / 26.8119 % and
according to Sections 91a, 92 SEA 125,917,735 / 28.4239 %.

Upon the effectiveness of the Syndicate Agreement Carso Telekom and América
Móvil will thus cross the 30%, 35%, 40%, 45% and 50% thresholds of voting
rights in the Issuer."
