MAGYAR TELEKOM

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CHANGES IN EQUITY (notes)

(a)          In addition to the 1,042,811,600 issued shares of common stock (nominal value of HUF 100), total shareholders’ equity includes one Series “B” preference share at the nominal value of HUF 10,000 at December 31, 2005. This Series “B” share is held by the Ministry of Informatics and Communications, and bestows certain rights on its owner, including access to information, and the appointment of a Director. This share may only be held by the Government or its nominee. The number of authorized shares on December 31, 2005 is 1,054,911,600.

(b)         Business combinations include the change in minority interests due to acquisitions. In case of new acquisitions where Magyar Telekom acquires a less than 100 percent stake, minority interests increase. Minority interests decrease where Magyar Telekom acquires further share of ownership in subsidiaries already consolidated.

(c)          Due to statutory requirements the Company sold and repurchased its 4,900,000 shares of common stock in 2003 for HUF 3,842 million, which resulted in a loss of HUF 646 million recognized in retained earnings.

(d)         Related party transactions

In 2004 Magyar Telekom acquired a 49% share of ownership in T-Systems Hungary (TSH), since which time TSH is an associate of Magyar Telekom Group. As both Magyar Telekom and TSH belong to the Deutsche Telekom group, the ultimate parent of Magyar Telekom, the transaction is considered as being between entities under common control. As a result, the difference between the carrying value of this investment in T-Systems International’s books (HUF 1,751 million) and the purchase price (HUF 3,430 million) was accounted for directly against the retained earnings of the Group.

In 2005 Magyar Telekom sold its investment in Telit Rt., the real estate outsourcing company of Magyar Telekom to DeTe Immobilien, a Deutsche Telekom group member. As the transaction took place between entities under common control, the gain on the sale of the investment was recognized directly in retained earnings.

In 2005 T-Systems International (TSI) forgave a loan given to T-Systems Hungary (TSH) in an amount of HUF 1,366 million of which HUF 669 appears as an increase in Magyar Telekom’s share of TSH’s net assets on equity consolidation as TSH is an associated company of the Group. As all three parties are part of the Deutsche Telekom group and the transaction took place between entities under common control, the increase in Magyar Telekom’s investment in TSH was recognized directly in retained earnings.

(e)          In 2005 Magyar Telekom’s CEO and other managers exercised some of their share options, and the Company used its treasury shares reserved for the option programs. As a result of these transactions, the Company sold 2,443,341 of its treasury shares to the CEO and other managers at the fixed option prices. On the sale of the treasury shares the Company recognized a gain of HUF 53 million, which was recognized in retained earnings. For more details on the programs see note 28.

(f)            In 2005 Magyar Telekom adopted IFRS 2 – Share-based payment, which requires the Company to recognize the cost of the equity-settled share-based payments against retained earnings.  In 2005 the Company accounted for HUF 84 million of such expenses. For more details see note 28.

(g)         In 2005 Magyar Telekom Plc. declared and paid HUF 70 dividend per share (HUF 70 in 2004, HUF 18 in 2003).

(h)         The dividend declared to minority interest almost entirely reflects the dividend declared by Maktel, Magyar Telekom’s Macedonian subsidiary to its minority shareholders.

(i)             The distributable reserves of the Company under Hungarian law at December 31, 2005 amounted to approximately
HUF 282,000 million (HUF 283,000 million at December 31, 2004).

Investigation into certain consultancy contracts

On February 13, 2006, the Company announced that it was investigating certain contracts to determine whether they were entered into in violation of Company policy or applicable law or regulation. Concerns regarding two consultancy contracts entered into by one of the Company’s subsidiaries were initially raised by the Company’s auditors. As a result of the investigation, two additional consultancy contracts, which were entered into by the Company, have been called into question. The total amount of the four contracts under investigation is around HUF 2 billion. Concerns have also arisen regarding destruction by certain employees of electronic documents obstructing the investigation. As a consequence of the investigation, the Company had suspended a number of employees who have since resigned. The investigation, which is being conducted by an independent law firm and supervised by the Audit Committee, is still ongoing.

Although the investigation has not been finalized, based on the independent investigators’ findings and conclusions to date, these contracts were entered into without full compliance with internal company procedures regarding the entry of such contracts. Moreover, sufficient evidence could not be obtained that adequate value was received under these contracts. In its 2005 preliminary results announcement the Company had capitalized the HUF 1.12 billion payment made related to two of these contracts. As a result of the findings of the investigation, the Company has expensed the total amount of the HUF 2 billion paid under these four contracts, and discloses these expenses under the caption “Other operating expenses – net.”  See Note 23. This has resulted in a commensurate effect on, among others, taxes, minority interest and net income when compared to what was reported in the Company’s 2005 preliminary results announcement.

The Company has already implemented certain remedial measures designed to enhance its control procedures with respect to the entry into consultancy contracts, including the introduction of a new governance model and replacement of the Board of Directors at Crnogorski Telekom and termination of work contracts with employees initiating data deletions interfering with the investigation.

The Company’s Board of Directors also approved on November 8, 2006 a more extensive program of remedial actions, which it expects to implement in the near future. These decisions include structural and procedural changes in relation to mergers and acquisitions and procurement as well as a new internal control regime. The Company’s Board of Directors also decided on December 5, 2006 on certain additional enhancements of internal controls and the implementation thereof.

As a result of the delays in finalizing its 2005 financial statements as a result of the investigation, the Company and some of its subsidiaries have failed and may fail to meet certain deadlines prescribed by the Hungarian and other applicable laws and regulations for preparing and filing audited annual results and holding annual general meetings. The Company has already been fined HUF 12 million as a consequence of such delays. The Company has notified the Hungarian Financial Supervisory Authority, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the U.S. Department of Justice of the investigation and is in contact with these authorities regarding the investigation and has responded to a number of

10




inquiries these authorities have raised.

Investigation into certain consultancy contracts

On February 13, 2006, the Company announced that it was investigating certain contracts to determine whether they were entered into in violation of Company policy or applicable law or regulation. Concerns regarding two consultancy contracts entered into by one of the Company’s subsidiaries were initially raised by the Company’s auditors.  As a result of the investigation, two additional consultancy contracts, which were entered into by the Company, have been called into question. The total amount of the four contracts under investigation at the Group is around HUF 2 billion, of which HUF 1,120 million relates to the two contracts entered into by the Company. Concerns have also arisen regarding destruction by certain employees of electronic documents obstructing the investigation. As a consequence of the investigation, the Company had suspended a number of employees who have since resigned. The investigation, which is being conducted by an independent law firm and supervised by the Audit Committee, is still ongoing.

Although the investigation has not been finalized, based on the independent investigators’ findings and conclusions to date, these contracts were entered into without full compliance with internal company procedures regarding the entry of such contracts.  Moreover, sufficient evidence could not be obtained that adequate value was received under these contracts.  Accordingly, although the Company had originally capitalized the amounts paid under these contracts, as a result of the findings of the investigation, the Company has ultimately expensed the HUF 1,120 million paid under these two contracts, and discloses these expenses under the caption “Extraordinary expenditures.”  See Note 36

The Company has already implemented certain remedial measures designed to enhance its control procedures with respect to the entry into consultancy contracts, including the introduction of a new governance model and replacement of the Board of Directors at Crngorski Telekom and termination of work contracts with employees initiating data deletions interfering with the investigation.

The Company’s Board of Directors also approved on 8 November, 2006 a more extensive program of remedial actions, which it expects to implement in the near future. These decisions include structural and procedural changes in relation to mergers and acquisitions, and procurement, as well as a new internal control regime.  The Company’s Board of Directors also decided on 5 December, 2006 on certain additional enhancements of internal controls and the implementation thereof.

As a result of the delays in finalizing its 2005 financial statements as a result of the investigation, the Company has failed to meet certain deadlines prescribed by the Hungarian and other applicable laws and regulations for preparing and filing audited annual results and holding annual general meetings. The Company has already been fined HUF 12 million as a consequence of such delays. The Company has notified the Hungarian Financial Supervisory Authority, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the U.S. Department of Justice of the investigation and is in contact with these authorities regarding the investigation and has responded to a number of inquiries these authorities have raised.

Magyar Telekom Telecommunications Public Limited Company

 

 

Submission

for Magyar Telekom Plc.’s General Meeting

Subject:                             Modification of the Articles of Association of Magyar Telekom Plc.

 

 

Budapest, December, 2006

24




The reasons for the amendment of the Articles of Magyar Telekom Plc. are as follows:

1. A gas-engine is operated in the headquarters of Magyar Telekom that requires a small-power-station licence from the Hungarian Energy Office („MEH”). MEH concluded in its answer letter that the Articles of the Company does not contain the activity of producing  electric energy and heat, therefore it is problematic to operate the heating system of the headquarters and to sell / charge for electricity. Consequently, it is expedient to include such activity into the scope of activities of the Company.

The (TEÁOR) registry No. of the activity is: TEÁOR 40.11 Production of electricity.

2. Magyar Telekom wishes to manage the provision of insurance policies – in packages or individually – for its customers as an important future business development issue. During the revision of the possible scenarios the business area concluded that in order to realize such cooperations and product concepts it is necessary to include the relevant TEÁOR activity into the scope of activities of the Company.

The (TEÁOR) registry No. of the activity is: TEÁOR 67.20 Other insurance activities.

3. The name of the Budapest Stock Exchange is amended with respect to the form of operation and is changed to Budapest Stock Exchange Closed Limited Company („Budapesti Értéktőzsde Zártkörűen Működő Részvénytársaság”). Therefore the name contained in Section 15.2. is to be amended.

Resolution proposal:

The General Meeting approves the modifications of the Articles of Associations as follows:

1.6.2. Other activities

40.11’03 Production of electricity

67.20’03 Other insurance activities

15.2.                        Notices

Notices and advertisements of the Company shall be published in the nationwide, official journal of the Budapest Stock Exchange and in the official publication space of the Budapest Stock Exchange Closed Limited Company (i.e. home page of the Stock Exchange) and the Official Gazette (“Cégközlöny”) in cases required by applicable law.

All other provisions of the Articles of Association remain unchanged

Magyar Telekom Telecommunications Public Limited Company

Submission

for Magyar Telekom Plc.’s General Meeting

Subject:                             Report of the Supervisory Board about the 2005 operations of the Company and the Group

 

 

Budapest, December, 2006

26




The Supervisory Board has reviewed the Report of the Company Management in respect of the performance, financial status, prospects and environmental uncertainties of the Company and the Group.

The Supervisory Board focused on the following priorities:

1.               the compliance of the operation of the Company with the legal requirements and obligations;

2.               the compliance of the applied accounting practices with the HAR (Hungarian Accounting Rules) and with the IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards);

3.               whether the operation and decisions of the Board of Directors served the best interest of the shareholders.

The Supervisory Board summarizes its position as follows:

I.                                      The business operations of the Company and the Group met the expectations of the shareholders in the 2005 business year. The Management successfully managed the Company in a dynamically changing market environment. Cost management is considered efficient.

II.                                  The Supervisory Board hereby states that the Net Profit after Tax of the Company for the 2005 business year was HUF 68 090 million (say: sixty-eight billion and ninety million Forints) and the total Assets and Liabilities of the Company for the 2005 business year was HUF 923 466 million (say: nine hundred and twenty-three billion four hundred and sixty-six million Forints). The Company Report has been prepared in line with the Hungarian Accounting Rules (HAR). The consolidated earnings of Magyar Telekom Group after tax in year 2005 according to IFRS (before subtracting HUF 10 355 million earnings on minority shares) is HUF 88 919 million (say: eighty-eight billion nine hundred and nineteen million Forints); the balance sheet total is HUF 1 082 948 million (say: one thousand and eighty-two billion nine hundred and forty-eight million Forints). The Supervisory Board states that the report of the Company and the Group includes the necessary information concerning the independent investigation. The Supervisory Board acknowledges that the dividend on profits, payable to the shareholders is established at HUF 76 122 million (say: seventy six billion one hundred and twenty-two million Forints).

III.                              The Supervisory Board continuously monitored the Management’s decisions by having the Management report on its most important business decisions, on the financial stand of the Group at every Supervisory Board Meeting. The Supervisory Board also monitored the control activity of the Management.

IV.                              The Supervisory Board approved the Annual Audit Plan of the independent Internal Audit organization for year 2005. The Supervisory Board requested and received regular reports about each and every audit finding, recommended audit measure and about the status of the implementation of these measures. The Internal Audit Branch completed the audits requested by the Supervisory Board and reported to them about the results. The Director of the Internal Audit is a

27




permanent invitee of Supervisory Board Meetings where she regularly responded to the further issues raised in connection with certain audits.

28




V.                                  The Supervisory Board paid special attention in year 2005 to the following audit topics: compliance with SOX 404 requirements, integrity of the financial statements, security of assets and IT systems, revenue assurance, CRM, business solutions.

VI.                              The Supervisory Board elected an Audit Committee (AC) from its own members and regulated the work of the AC by approving the Code of Procedures. The AC regularly checked the compliance with the rules assuring the independence of the Book Auditor and performed continuous control over the contracts that do not fall under the scope of book auditing.

VII.                          The Supervisory Board continuously monitored the compliance of the Group with the rules assuring the fulfillment of the stock exchange requirements. A Directive has been issued on the “Procedures for treatments of complains/comments regarding accounting matters”. Beyond that, the technical conditions of making such reports have also been established.  The Supervisory Board had all the anonymous reports investigated and reports were made about them. The Group has made the necessary preventive measures in all cases to prevent repeated occurrence.

VIII.                      The Supervisory Board put major focus on the strengthening of the corporate control processes and compliance with the SOX requirements. They asked regular reports on this issue from Internal Audit, in many cases from the Management and asked information also from the external Book Auditor.

IX.                             The Supervisory Board highly appreciates the efforts of the Group to exploit the synergy opportunities with DT on group level. In this framework the Company continuously monitored the fulfillment of the shareholders’ expectations and the optimization of resources. The Supervisory Board strongly supports the introduction of the principles of the standardized internal audit procedures.

X.                                 The Supervisory Board continuously monitored the independent investigation on the year-2005 operations of the Company and the Group and made recommendations on the corrective measures. The Board of Directors has decided the implementation of those measures.

Based on its findings in the course of the continuous monitoring of the business operations of the Company and Magyar Telekom Group the Supervisory Board - provided that the Company’s Auditor issues its Report with the content according to the proposal of the Board of Directors until the date of the General Meeting — recommends that the General Meeting should:
