Belgacom intends to ensure its shareholders an attractive return

Slide 7

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

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.

Mobile network 3G+ upgrade for superior mobile data experience

Fastest down- and upload speed available in the market

Significantly better 3G indoor coverage vs competitors

70% increase of overall network capacity for data

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

Important market value with customers having devices not

supporting 4G yet, both now and in future

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

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

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

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

November 2012

High speed backhauling deployed for fast data transmission

4G further improves mobile speed experience to average 20-

30Mbps speed with peak speeds up to 50-60Mbps

4G is deployed in existing 1800Mhz spectrum

First to launch 4G Further roll-out of 4G

Copper has a promising evolutionary path allowing a stepwise increase of bit rate.

Page 22: Analyst/Investor Meeting 2013

Fixed network Dynamic Line Management & Vectoring

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

line distance

Line characteristics however often allow higher speeds

Crosstalk is interference between copper pairs in same cable

Crosstalk limits the achievable speed on VDSL

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

Fast-track Dynamic Line Management Powerful vectoring technology

DLM is an in-house developed technology and will improve

the average speed experience with 30%

DLM monitors stability of lines and dynamically applies

maximum possible speed when a line is sufficiently stable

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

Vectoring cancels crosstalk in the copper cables resulting in a

significant bit rate increase of copper lines

Page 23: Analyst/Investor Meeting 2013

Fixed network Vectoring pioneer with even higher speeds in pipeline

Belgacom is the first operator in the world to deploy

vectoring on this scale

Only operator with an in-house developed technology to bring

speed at maximum line capabilities

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 How we will further increase speed soon after

1 2

Strong Regulatory Framework was negotiated, disentangling

all blocking points required for full-fledged vectoring

DLM will be applied on top of our Vectored lines to further

increase speeds up-to-100 Mbps

up-to-100 Mbps full-fledged vectoring

Page 24: Analyst/Investor Meeting 2013

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 will be deployed in new

residential zonings as of S2 2013

Fiber costs are comparable to

copper for new residential zonings

FTTH in new zonings Pair Bonding of VDSL lines G.Fast & Fiber evolution

Pair bonding increases bit rate by

combining speed of 2 VDSL lines

Both lines will be vectored and

controlled by DLM

G.fast technology is currently

analysed by standardization

bodies

Both evolutions aim at bringing

fiber distribution close to the

customer

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

Lower cost to maintain – Lower maintenance, utility,

powering and building cost of building facilities

Higher efficiency to operate – Substantial cost savings in

operating the network through efficiency increase of field

force

Better customer experience with instant servicing –

Significant simplification & agility gain with one network for

all services

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 Operational benefits from network simplification
