Belgacom intends to ensure its shareholders an attractive return on Result 2012

A total gross normal dividend of EUR 1.68 per share will be proposed to the Annual Shareholders Meeting of 17 April 2013 . As a result, Belgacom exceptionally increased its dividend to a total of EUR 2.49 gross per share for the 2012 full-year results. Key dates for the normal dividend: – Ex-dividend date: 23/04/2013 – Record date: 25/04/2013 – Payment date: 26/04/2013

on Result 2013

With the current limited visibility on the Belgian market due to competitive pressure and the unfavourable economy, the Board of Directors agreed to address shareholder return at a later stage, and consider returning a EUR 0.50 interim dividend per share in December 2013 if Belgacom’s financial performance for the year 2013 at that time proves to be in line with its full-year outlook.

Global network strategy Introduction

Global network strategy with important value enablers for a convergent interconnected world

Mobile network

Mobile network innovation driving leadership superiority

Fixed network

Fixed network innovation driving customer value

Network simplification

Network simplification driving efficiency 18


Mobile network 3G+ upgrade for superior mobile data experience

Ambition is to remain the best mobile operator for all type of customers on the Belgian market. 3G+ upgrade will bring 8 Mbps download and up-to-21 Mbps top speeds, 42 Mbps for dual carrier devices

Best mobile 3G network

Further boost experience for 3G customers

1

Fastest down- and upload speed available in the market

1

70% increase of overall network capacity for data

2

Significantly better 3G indoor coverage vs competitors

2

30% average speed increase & top speed increase with HSPA+

Mobile data usage still in early stages with 35% of devices on our network being 3G compatible

Mobile network 4G as an important enabler of our convergence strategy

Belgacom is determined to maintain its mobile leadership through investment in 4G roll-out

First to launch 4G

Further roll-out of 4G

1

First Belgian operator to deploy 4G in 8 large cities in November 2012

1

4G further improves mobile speed experience to average 2030Mbps speed with peak speeds up to 50-60Mbps

2

High speed backhauling deployed for fast data transmission

2

4G is deployed in existing 1800Mhz spectrum

Only 4G deployment in Brussels if regulatory framework is changed

New 2600Mhz spectrum will be used for targeted capacity & performance

dynamic line management

vdsl2


Fixed network Dynamic Line Management & Vectoring

To substantially increase bandwidth, Dynamic Line Management (DLM) & Vectoring will be deployed

Fast-track Dynamic Line Management

Powerful vectoring technology

1

A speed profile is applied to a VDSL2 line in function of the line distance

1

Crosstalk is interference between copper pairs in same cable

2

Line characteristics however often allow higher speeds

2

Crosstalk limits the achievable speed on VDSL

DLM monitors stability of lines and dynamically applies maximum possible speed when a line is sufficiently stable

Vectoring cancels crosstalk in the copper cables resulting in a significant bit rate increase of copper lines

DLM is an in-house developed technology and will improve the average speed experience with 30%

Vectoring brings up-to-70 Mbps speeds and 15 Mbps upstream


Fixed network Vectoring pioneer with even higher speeds in pipeline Belgacom is in better position to increase speed then other EU peers thanks to our access strategy over past years with a strong Fiber-The-The-Curb network topology and a dense 85% VDSL2 coverage How we are ahead of other EU operators

1

Belgacom is the first operator in the world to deploy vectoring on this scale

Strong Regulatory Framework was negotiated, disentangling all blocking points required for full-fledged vectoring

full-fledged vectoring

How we will further increase speed soon after

2

Only operator with an in-house developed technology to bring speed at maximum line capabilities

DLM will be applied on top of our Vectored lines to further increase speeds up-to-100 Mbps

up-to-100 Mbps


Fixed network Speed acceleration with FTTH, Pair Bonding & G.Fast

Belgacom will start with Fiber-To-The-Home (FTTH) deployment in new residential zonings in 2013. Future evolutions of speed acceleration is currently described by Pair Bonding and G.fast & Fiber evolution.

FTTH in new zonings

Pair Bonding of VDSL lines

G.Fast & Fiber evolution

1

FTTH will be deployed in new residential zonings as of S2 2013

1

Pair bonding increases bit rate by combining speed of 2 VDSL lines

1

2

Fiber costs are comparable to copper for new residential zonings

2

Both lines will be vectored and controlled by DLM

2

FTTH offers speeds up-to-200 Mbps

Pair Bonding brings speeds up-to-200 Mbps

G.fast technology is currently analysed by standardization bodies Both evolutions aim at bringing fiber distribution close to the customer

Evolution brings speeds up-to-1000 Mbps


Network simplification Leaner operations through a simplified all-IP-network

Program aims at simplifying our network and decreasing operational costs. In its ambition to be an agile company, Belgacom will also focus on substantially simplifying its IT and product portfolios

Approach in simplifying our networks

Transformation – Physical removal of legacy technologies, PSTN switches and technical buildings

Operational benefits from network simplification

1

Lower cost to maintain – Lower maintenance, utility,

2

Higher efficiency to operate – Substantial cost savings in

Consolidation – Migration of products & services to the new IP based network

operating the network through efficiency increase of field

force

3 Automation – Optimization of network architecture towards fully automated customer activation

powering and building cost of building facilities

Better customer experience with instant servicing – Significant simplification & agility gain with one network for all services
