Telefonos de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. Extends Expiration Date of Exchange Offer
Mexico City, D.F., April 22, 2004 - Telefonos de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. ("Telmex")
announced today it has extended the expiration date of its offer to exchange
(the "Exchange Offer") up to U.S.$1 billion aggregate principal amount of its
registered 4.50% Senior Notes due 2008 (the "New Notes") for any and all of its
outstanding unregistered 4.50% Senior Notes due 2008 (the "Old Notes").
The new expiration date for the Exchange Offer will be 5:00 p.m., New York City
time on April 29, 2004, unless extended.
JPMorgan, the exchange agent for the Exchange Offer, has informed Telmex that as
of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on April 22, 2004, approximately U.S.$984
million in aggregate principal amount of its Old Notes had been tendered in the
Exchange Offer. This amount represents approximately 98.4% of the outstanding
Old Notes.
The New Notes are substantially identical to the Old Notes, except that the New
Notes have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act") and will not bear any legend restricting their transfer. The
purpose of the Exchange Offer is to allow holders that meet the conditions
described in the prospectus to receive New Notes that may be resold in the
United States without further registration under the Securities Act.
The terms of the Exchange Offer and other information relating to Telmex are set
forth in a prospectus dated March 23, 2004. Copies of the prospectus and the
related letter of transmittal may be obtained from the information agent, Global
Bondholder Services Corporation, telephone: (212) 430-3774 or (866) 470-3400 and
fax number: (212) 430-3775. The prospectus is also available on the SEC's
website (www.sec.gov).
This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to
buy or exchange the New Notes or the Old Notes. The Exchange Offer is made
solely by the prospectus.
