Budapest, March 11, 2016 13:00

Magyar Telekom (Reuters: MTEL.BU and Bloomberg: MTELEKOM HB, hereinafter the “Company”), the leading Hungarian telecommunications service provider, today announces the restructuring of the comprehensive real estate agreement signed with WING Group on May 19, 2015 regarding the building of the new headquarters for the Company.

Under the May 19, 2015 agreement, Magyar Telekom and WING Group had agreed a forward sales contract on the Company’s three main office buildings in Budapest. What has been amended is that now only two of the main office buildings will be covered by a forward sales agreement; the third building (Infopark “G” building) will be sold on a “cash-basis” to a third party appointed by WING, but also leased back to the Company until the handover of the new headquarters. Although the ca. HUF 4 billion profit deriving from these three sales transactions remains unchanged over the period, the new deal structure does affect the timings of cash inflows with a higher than planned cash inflow of EUR 25.5 million (ca. HUF 8 billion) in H1.

The rental cost of Infopark “G” induces ca. HUF 700 million p.a. increase in rental costs for the Company during the next 3 years.
