Vote Your Proxy

If you are a BellSouth shareholder, you should have received your merger proxy package in the mail by now. Please Open your package, Review the proxy statement and Vote your proxy!

Note that the proxy card you received from BellSouth Shareholder Services represents any BellSouth shares held in your 401(k) account, plus any registered shares, including any restricted shares of stock, if all of the accounts are registered in the same name. However, if you hold your BellSouth shares in “street name” through a stock broker or a bank, you will receive a separate proxy package and card to vote those shares

Your vote is important. Approval of the merger requires a majority vote of all of BellSouth’s outstanding shares; therefore, not voting is the same as voting against the merger. Instructions for voting are included in the shareholder materials.

For further information related to the merger go to www.bellsouth.com/investor or the Merger News intranet site at http://my.bls.com/home/merger.
