		Nota de Prensa Press Release

TELEFÓNICA MÓVILES COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF ALL BELLSOUTH’S

OPERATORS IN LATIN AMERICA, WITH PURCHASE OF MOVICOM IN

ARGENTINA

•

With the purchase of Movicom, for an enterprise value of 988 million dollars, Telefónica Móviles has completed, in record time, the acquisition of BellSouth’s ten Latin American cellular operators for a total enterprise value of 5,850 million dollars.

•

The transaction makes Telefónica Móviles the world’s second-largest multinational mobile company, with approximately 72 million managed customers (figures at the end of the third quarter of 2004) and the biggest in Latin America, with over 50.6 million managed customers in the region.

•

By combining the operations of Movicom and Unifón, Telefónica Móviles becomes the leading mobile operator in Argentina (with 5.5 million customers at the end of 2004) and is in an excellent position to capture a significant part of the high growth potential in the Argentine cellular market.

Madrid, 11 January 2005. - Telefónica Móviles, the company that manages all the Telefónica Group’s cellular assets, has completed the acquisition of all of BellSouth’s mobile operators in Latin America with the purchase of 100% of Movicom, BellSouth’s wireless operator in Argentina, for an enterprise value of 988 million dollars. The transaction was carried out after obtaining the necessary approval from the Argentine authorities and in compliance with the prevailing regulations on spectrum in Argentina.

“This acquisition marks a further step in the Telefónica Group’s commitment to Argentina. At the same time, receiving definitive approval for the acquisition of Movicom enables Telefónica Móviles to make additional investments of around 400 million pesos in infrastructure in Argentina in 2005,” said Antonio Viana-Baptista, Chairman and CEO of Telefónica Móviles.

“The combination of Unifón and Movicom should bring out the best of both companies and give rise to an operator that actively helps to develop Argentina’s mobile communications. Customers will have access to the most developed products in the world thanks to the experience and leadership of Telefónica Móviles, the largest wireless operator in Argentina and Latin America and the second-largest mobile telephony multinational in the world.”

The operator acquired

Movicom ended 2004 with 2.15 million customers. Adding together the operations of Movicom and Unifón, Telefónica Móviles’ operator in Argentina, would give the Telefónica Móviles Group some 5.5 million customers at the end of 2004, making it the clear leader in the Argentine market.

The Telefónica Móviles Group is now in an excellent position to capture a significant part of the high growth potential of the Argentine cellular market.

Telefónica Móviles will assume the management of Movicom as of today and will maintain (as with Unifón) its brand name and commercial systems during a transition period, until the company’s commercial platforms are integrated into those of the Telefónica Móviles Group.

Eduardo Caride is the Regional Director of Telefónica Móviles’ operations in the Southern Cone (Argentina, Chile and Uruguay), while Federico Rava, up to now General Manager of Movicom BellSouth, has been appointed CEO of Telefónica Móviles’ new integrated operations in Argentina.

Unifón and Movicom customers can rest assured that they will keep their current benefits, telephone numbers, price plans and commercial terms with no changes whatsoever.

The global agreement with BellSouth

With the acquisition of Movicom, Telefónica Móviles has completed the acquisition of BellSouth’s ten Latin American cellular operators, pursuant to the agreement reached by the Telefónica Group and BellSouth on March 5, 2004.

At the end of the third quarter of 2004 (period ending in August) these ten operators (in Venezuela, Colombia, Argentina, Chile, Ecuador, Panama, Peru, Guatemala, Uruguay and Nicaragua) had 13.1 million customers, with combined revenues of 2,282 million dollars and EBITDA of 741 million dollars.

The acquisitions have been made in record time and the transaction values 100% of the companies (firm value) at 5,850 million dollars, to be financed with Telefónica Móviles’ cash flow and debt.

The transaction makes Telefónica Móviles the world’s second-biggest multinational cellular company, with more than 72 million managed customers (figures at the end of the third quarter of 2004) and the largest mobile operator in Latin America, with over 50.6 million managed customers. In addition, it is the only mobile telephony company operating in all the region’s key markets, which together have over 421 million inhabitants. This leaves the company better positioned to leverage the strong growth potential of the Latin American market.
