October 15, 2007

Dear shareholders:

        We are proposing to separate the multimedia business from our group. This separation would be accomplished through the spin-off of our interest in the ordinary shares of PT Multimédia—Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, S.A., or "PT Multimédia."

        On August 3, 2006, our board of directors approved the spin-off, and on April 27, 2007, our shareholders approved the spin-off at our annual general meeting of shareholders. In the spin-off, the holders of our ordinary shares will receive ordinary shares of PT Multimédia, and holders of American Depositary Shares representing our ordinary shares, or "ADSs," will receive ADSs of PT Multimédia. The distribution will be made pro rata to the owners of our ordinary shares and ADSs, and no consideration will be payable for the spun-off shares or ADSs, nor will Portugal Telecom shareholders be required to surrender or exchange any Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs.

        You will continue to own the same ordinary shares and ADSs of Portugal Telecom after the spin-off as before and, in addition to them, you will own ordinary shares or ADSs, as the case may be, of PT Multimédia. You will therefore continue to own the same percentage interest of our current businesses (subject to the effects of withholding tax and fractional shares, as described in the accompanying information statement), but as two separate investments rather than as a single investment.

        The information statement that accompanies this letter explains the terms, conditions, reasons and expected results of the spin-off. We urge you to read the information statement carefully.

        This is not a proxy solicitation. The spin-off has already been approved by the shareholders of Portugal Telecom.

        We are at your disposal to provide any clarification or additional information in connection with this letter or the information statement. Please do not hesitate to contact our Investor Relations Department at Av. Fontes Pereira de Melo, 40, 1069-300 Lisboa Codex, Portugal, Attn: Nuno Prego, Telephone: +351 21 500 1701, Facsimile: +351 21 500 0800.

INFORMATION STATEMENT

GRAPHIC


PORTUGAL TELECOM, SGPS, S.A.

We are not asking you for a proxy, and you are requested not to send us a proxy.

        This information statement is being furnished in connection with the spin-off by Portugal Telecom, SGPS, S.A., or "Portugal Telecom," of ordinary shares, nominal value €0.01 per share, of PT Multimédia—Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, S.A., or "PT Multimédia." Portugal Telecom intends to accomplish the spin-off through a distribution of ordinary shares of PT Multimédia to the holders of ordinary shares, nominal value €0.03 per share, of Portugal Telecom and of American Depositary Shares representing ordinary shares of Portugal Telecom ("PT ADSs"). Holders of PT ADSs will receive the distribution in the form of American Depositary Shares representing ordinary shares of PT Multimédia ("PTM ADSs"). The spin-off will be implemented in accordance with Portuguese law.

        The number of PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs to be received by each holder of Portugal Telecom shares or PT ADSs in the spin-off will be determined by multiplying the number of ordinary shares or PT ADSs held by such person on November 1, 2007, or the "record date," by the spin-off ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share after the application of Portuguese withholding tax, as explained in this information statement. The spin-off ratio is 0.176067 PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs for every Portugal Telecom ordinary share or PT ADS held on the record date. The spin-off of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares will be made in book-entry form. No fractional shares will be issued. Those shareholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractional shares will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.

        The spin-off was approved at the annual general meeting of the shareholders of Portugal Telecom held on April 27, 2007. The shareholders have authorized the management of PT to execute the spin-off by December 31, 2007. Portugal Telecom shareholders will not be required to pay for the PT Multimédia ordinary shares they receive as a result of the spin-off or to surrender or exchange PT ordinary shares or PT ADSs in order to receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs, or to take any other action in connection with the spin-off.

        The PT Multimédia ordinary shares are traded on the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon under the symbol "PTM." The PTM ADSs will not be listed on any stock exchange.

        In reviewing this information statement, you should carefully consider the matters described under "Risk Factors" beginning on page 8 for a discussion of certain factors that should be considered by recipients of PT Multimédia ordinary shares and PTM ADSs.


        The Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities commission and the Portuguese securities commission have not approved or disapproved of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares or the spin-off of these shares or determined if this information statement or any document referred to herein is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.


        This information statement does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. We are furnishing this information statement solely to provide information to our shareholders about the proposed spin-off.


        The date of this information statement is October 15, 2007.

AVAILABLE INFORMATION

        PT Multimédia is relying on an exemption afforded by Rule 12g3-2(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or "Rule 12g3-2(b)," and therefore will not be required to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the "SEC," the PT Multimédia ordinary shares to be distributed in connection with the spin-off. Under Rule 12g3-2(b), PT Multimédia will be required to make available on its website English-language versions of its annual report, press releases and certain other information made public in Portugal. However, PT Multimédia will not be required to file with the SEC annual reports on Form 20-F or furnish reports on Form 6-K.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

        The consolidated financial statements of Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia included in this information statement have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, or "IFRS," issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, or "IASB," and adopted by the European Commission for use in the European Union, including all interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee that were in effect on the date of approval of the financial statements.

        IFRS differs in significant respects from U.S. GAAP. For a discussion of the principal differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP, see "Summary of Certain Differences Between IFRS and U.S. GAAP (Unaudited)." See also "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of PT Multimédia—Transition to International Financial Reporting Standards" in this information statement and "Item 5—Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Transition to International Financial Reporting Standards" in the 2006 PT Annual Report incorporated by reference into this information statement.

        The audited consolidated financial statements of Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia included in this information statement have been audited in accordance with the Auditing Standards (Normas Técnicas e as Directrizes de Revisão/Auditoria) issued by the Portuguese Institute for Statutory Auditors (Ordem dos Revisores Oficiais de Contas). These auditing standards differ from United States generally accepted auditing standards.

        Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia publish their financial statements in Euros, the single European currency adopted by certain participating member countries of the European Union, including Portugal, as of January 1, 1999. Unless otherwise specified, references to "Euros," "EUR" or "€" are to the Euro. References herein to "U.S. dollars," "$" or "US$" are to United States dollars. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York's noon buying rate in the City of New York for Euros was €0.7058 = US$1.00 on October 12, 2007. PT Multimédia is not representing that the Euro or US$ shown herein could have been or could be converted at any particular rate or at all. See "Exchange Rates" for further information regarding the Euro and the rates of exchange between Euros and U.S. dollars.

        Certain amounts and percentages included in this offering memorandum have been rounded to facilitate their presentation. The totals presented in certain tables, therefore, may not be an arithmetic aggregation of the figures that precede them.

SUMMARY

        This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this information statement and may not contain all of the information that may be important to you. For a complete understanding of the business of PT Multimédia and the spin-off, you should read this summary together with the more detailed information and the financial statements appearing elsewhere in this information statement and in the documents incorporated by reference. You should read this entire information statement and the documents incorporated by reference carefully, including the "Risk Factors" and "Special Note about Forward-Looking Statements" sections.

        Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Portugal Telecom," "we," "our" or "us" refer to Portugal Telecom, SGPS, S.A. and its consolidated subsidiaries; the term "PT Multimédia" refers to PT Multimédia—Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, S.A. and its consolidated subsidiaries; and the term "spin-off" refers to the transaction in which ordinary shares of PT Multimédia will be distributed to our ordinary shareholders and PTM ADSs will be distributed to PT ADS holders.

Portugal Telecom

        We are a limited liability holding company, organized as a sociedade gestora de participações sociais under the laws of the Republic of Portugal. We provide telecommunications services primarily in Portugal and Brazil. Our services include:

        Before the spin-off, we hold 58.43% of PT Multimédia, which provides the services described below.

PT Multimédia

        PT Multimédia is a limited liability holding company, organized as a sociedade gestora de participações sociais under the laws of the Republic of Portugal. PT Multimédia provides telecommunications and multimedia services in Portugal. Its major lines of business include:

1


Certain Relationships between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia

        As of the date of this information statement, we hold 58.43% of the ordinary shares of PT Multimédia. After the spin-off, the holders of our shares and ADSs will participate directly in PT Multimédia by becoming PT Multimédia shareholders or PTM ADS holders, as the case may be.

        We are parties to certain arms length contracts with PT Multimédia in the ordinary course of our business, and we will continue to be parties to a number of such contracts after the spin-off. See "Certain Relationships Between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia."

Spin-Off

        We will spin off our interest in PT Multimédia through a distribution in kind to our shareholders of ordinary shares of PT Multimédia, subject to the application of withholding tax, as described in this information statement.

        We have concluded that the separation of PT Multimédia from Portugal Telecom should positively contribute to the development of the telecommunications market in Portugal, allowing the market to develop increasingly innovative and convergent services for consumers. We believe that the resulting market structure should give us flexibility to offer more and better services to our customers, while enabling PT Multimédia to pursue its own competitive strategy domestically and abroad. By allowing the management of each company to focus on its core competencies, we believe that this strategy is more likely to create greater value for shareholders over time. The separation also addresses the long-standing objectives of the Portuguese regulators.

        In the spin-off, ordinary shares of PT Multimédia will be distributed pro rata to Portugal Telecom shareholders. The number of PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs to be received by each holder of Portugal Telecom shares or PT ADSs in the spin-off will be determined by multiplying the number of ordinary shares or PT ADSs held by such person on November 1, 2007, or the "record date," by the spin-off ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share after the application of Portuguese withholding tax, as explained in this information statement. The spin-off ratio is 0.176067 PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs for every Portugal Telecom ordinary share or PT ADS held on the record date. The spin-off of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares will be made in book-entry form. No fractional shares will be issued. Those shareholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractional shares will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.

        The spin-off was approved at the annual general meeting of the shareholders of Portugal Telecom held on April 27, 2007. The shareholders have authorized the management of PT to execute the proposed spin-off by December 31, 2007. Portugal Telecom shareholders will not be required to pay for the PT Multimédia ordinary shares they receive as a result of the spin-off or to surrender or exchange PT ordinary shares or PT ADSs in order to receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs, or to take any other action in connection with the spin-off.

        After the spin-off, Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia are expected to operate as independent companies. Portugal Telecom is expected to retain approximately 7% of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares immediately after the spin-off due to the mechanics for applying withholding tax and adjustments for fractional shares as described in this information statement, but neither company will have a role in the management of the other.

        The spin-off is a taxable transaction under Portuguese tax law. In the spin-off, you will receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs net of Portuguese withholding tax applied at your applicable tax rate. See "The Spin-Off—Withholding Tax Mechanics" and "—Tax Considerations—Portuguese Tax Considerations."

        The spin-off will also generally be treated as a taxable dividend to U.S. Holders, as defined in "The Spin-Off—Tax Considerations—U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations."

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT PT MULTIMÉDIA AND THE SPIN-OFF

Q1:   What is the spin-off?

A:

 

The spin-off is a transaction in which we will distribute ordinary shares of our subsidiary PT Multimédia to holders of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares through a distribution of PT Multimédia ordinary shares owned by Portugal Telecom. Holders of PT ADSs will receive the distribution in the form of PTM ADSs. The spin-off will be implemented in accordance with the laws of Portugal.

 

 

The number of PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs you will receive in the spin-off as a holder of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs will be determined by multiplying the number of ordinary shares or PT ADSs you hold on the record date by the spin-off ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share after the application of Portuguese withholding tax, as explained in this information statement. The spin-off ratio is 0.176067 PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs for every Portugal Telecom ordinary share or PT ADS you hold on the record date.

 

 

No fractional shares will be issued, and shareholders will be entitled to receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.

 

 

No action is required for you to participate in the spin-off.

Q2:

 

What is PT Multimédia?

A:

 

PT Multimédia is the holding company through which, together with its subsidiaries, we provide cable and satellite television, broadband Internet access through cable modems, production of television channels, sales of programming content, advertising sales, cinema distribution and exhibition, negotiation of cinema rights and distribution of DVDs and videos. We currently hold 58.43% of the ordinary shares of PT Multimédia.

Q3:

 

Why is Portugal Telecom separating PT Multimédia from its business?

A:

 

Portugal Telecom's management believes that the separation of PT Multimédia from Portugal Telecom will contribute positively to the development of the telecommunications market in Portugal, allowing the market to develop increasingly innovative and convergent services for consumers. We believe that the resulting market structure should give us flexibility to offer more and better services to our customers, while enabling PT Multimédia to pursue its own competitive strategy domestically and abroad. The separation will also allow the management of each company to focus on its core competencies, which is likely to create greater value for shareholders over time. The separation also addresses the long-standing objectives of the Portuguese regulators.

Q4:

 

What is the record date for the distribution?

A:

 

The record date will be November 1, 2007, and ownership will be determined after the close of business, Lisbon time, on that date.

Q5:

 

When will the distribution occur?

A:

 

We expect to distribute the PT Multimédia ordinary shares on November 7, 2007. We refer to the date on which we will distribute the PT Multimédia ordinary shares as the "distribution date."
     

4



Q6:

 

What will I receive in the spin-off?

A:

 

If you hold Portugal Telecom ordinary shares, you will receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares in the spin-off. If you hold PT ADSs, you will receive PTM ADSs in the spin-off. The pre-tax number of PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs you will receive in the spin-off will be determined by multiplying the number of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs you hold on the record date by the spin-off ratio. The spin-off ratio is 0.176067 PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs for every Portugal Telecom ordinary share or PT ADS you hold on the record date.

 

 

Immediately after the spin-off, you will continue to own the Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs you hold before the spin-off in addition to the PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs you will receive in the spin-off. That is, you will continue to own the same percentage interest of Portugal Telecom's current businesses (subject to the effects of withholding tax and fractional shares, as described in this information statement) but as two separate investments rather than as a single investment. The spin-off of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares will be made in book-entry form. No fractional shares will be issued. Those holders of PT ordinary shares or ADSs who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractional shares will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.

Q7:

 

How will I be treated in the spin-off if I hold ADSs of Portugal Telecom?

A:

 

If you hold ADSs of Portugal Telecom, you will receive ADSs of PT Multimédia in the spin-off. However, the PTM ADSs will not be listed on any stock exchange. The PT Multimédia ordinary shares and the PTM ADSs will not be registered under the Exchange Act, and PT Multimédia is expected to be exempt from filing periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the "Exchange Act." The PTM ADSs are expected to be issued under a "Level I" American Depositary Share program, and their liquidity is expected to be very limited. The PTM ADSs are expected to be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the "Securities Act," on Form F-6. You should carefully read "
Risk Factors—Risks Related to PT Multimédia's Ordinary Shares and ADSs" and "Description of PT Multimédia American Depositary Shares."

Q8:

 

Do I have appraisal rights in connection with the spin-off?

A:

 

No, you will not be entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the spin-off. That is, Portuguese law does not give you the right to demand an appraisal of the fair value of the Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs you hold, or of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs you will receive in the spin-off, and the payment of any such amounts to you in lieu of participating in the spin-off.

Q9:

 

What will be the relationship between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia following the spin-off?

A:

 

After the spin-off, Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia are expected to operate as independent companies. Portugal Telecom is expected to retain approximately 7% of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares immediately after the spin-off due to the mechanics for applying withholding tax and adjustments for fractional shares as described in this information statement, but neither company will have a role in the management of the other.
     

5



 

 

Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia currently have, and will continue to have, commercial relationships. Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia are parties to certain arms length contracts in the ordinary course of their businesses, and they are expected to continue to be parties to a number of such contracts after the spin-off. See "
Certain Relationships Between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia."

Q10:

 

What are the tax consequences of the spin-off to holders of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs?

A:

 

The spin-off is a taxable transaction under Portuguese tax law. In the spin-off, you will receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs net of Portuguese withholding tax applied according to your current tax rate and status.

 

 

If you hold Portugal Telecom ordinary shares, an amount in cash from Portugal Telecom equal to your withholding tax obligations in the spin-off will be deposited with your financial intermediary on the same day that you receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares in the spin-off net of that withholding tax amount. Your financial intermediary will forward this cash amount to the Portuguese tax authorities on your behalf.

 

 

If you hold PT ADSs, an amount in cash from Portugal Telecom equal to the withholding tax obligations of The Bank of New York, as holder of the Portugal Telecom ordinary shares underlying the PT ADSs (the "Depositary"), will be deposited in the account of Banco Espírito Santo, as custodian for the Depositary, on the same day that the custodian receives PT Multimédia ordinary shares in the spin-off net of that withholding tax amount. The custodian will forward this cash amount to the Portuguese tax authorities. See "
The Spin-Off—Tax Considerations—Portuguese Tax Considerations."

 

 

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the spin-off will generally be treated as a taxable dividend to U.S. Holders (as defined in "
The Spin-Off—Tax Considerations—U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations") of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs equal to the U.S. dollar value of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares, PTM ADSs and cash received by such holders. See "The Spin-Off—Tax Considerations—U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations."

Q11:

 

Are there risks to owning PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs?

A:

 

Yes. PT Multimédia's business is subject to a number of risks, and there are risks relating to the nature of the spin-off itself. See "
Risk Factors."

Q12:

 

Where do PT Multimédia ordinary shares trade?

A:

 

PT Multimédia's ordinary shares are listed on the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon under the symbol "PTM." PT Multimédia does not currently intend to seek a listing of its ordinary shares in any other jurisdiction.

Q13:

 

Will the PTM ADSs trade on a stock exchange?

A:

 

No. The PTM ADSs will not be listed on any stock exchange and will be traded over the counter. The liquidity of the PTM ADSs is expected to be very limited. See "
Risk Factors—Risks Related to PT Multimédia's Ordinary Shares and ADSs."

Q14:

 

What do I need to do now?

A:

 

Portugal Telecom shareholders and PT ADS holders are not required to take any action in order to receive ordinary shares or ADSs of PT Multimédia.
     

6



 

 

Portugal Telecom shareholders and PT ADS holders will not be required to pay anything for the PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs distributed in the spin-off or to surrender or exchange any Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs. Portugal Telecom shareholders will automatically receive on the distribution date the PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs to which they are entitled, net of any Portuguese withholding tax they owe on the PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs to which they are entitled or any cash in lieu of fractional shares.

 

 

However, if you are a U.S. tax resident, you should see "
Risk Factors—Risks Related to PT Multimédia's Ordinary Shares and ADSs—If you are a U.S. tax resident, you will not be eligible for the reduced rates of Portuguese withholding tax on dividends under the U.S.-Portugal income tax treaty unless you fill out a form required by the Portuguese tax authorities and get it certified by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service." If you are a U.S. tax resident, you will need to fill out the tax forms described in that section to obtain the benefits of the U.S.-Portugal income tax treaty.

RISK FACTORS

        You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information contained in this information statement, in evaluating the spin-off, PT Multimédia and its ordinary shares and the PTM ADSs. The events and circumstances described below could result in a significant or material adverse effect on the business, results of operations or financial condition of Portugal Telecom or PT Multimédia, as the case may be, and a corresponding decline in the market price of the ordinary shares of Portugal Telecom or PT Multimédia, the PT ADSs or the PTM ADSs, as the case may be.

Risks Related to PT Multimédia

If PT Multimédia is unsuccessful in implementing its growth strategy, its financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.

        PT Multimédia has articulated a strategy that is aimed at operating as a fully integrated telecommunications and multimedia provider. This strategy depends on growing PT Multimédia's newer voice telephony services as well as maintaining leadership in pay TV in Portugal and competing aggressively in broadband Internet access. PT Multimédia's strategy is subject to all the risks described below in this section, including its ability to respond to changes in technology, competition from other providers, increased difficulty in obtaining new subscribers, availability of programming and other risks. If PT Multimédia does not succeed in implementing the various elements of its strategy, its results of operations will suffer, and it may be unable to grow or may suffer a deterioration in its financial position. Any such failure could adversely affect the market price of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares or ADSs you receive in the spin-off.

PT Multimédia's success depends on its ability to offer new products and services and to keep up with advances in technology.

        PT Multimédia has introduced and continues to introduce new products and services, such as high speed Internet access via cable and telephony (VoIP) services. If it is not successful in marketing and selling such products and services, its business, financial position and results of operations may be harmed. In addition, PT Multimédia cannot be sure that there will be adequate demand for its new product and service offerings. Because technology changes very rapidly, it is not possible to ensure that the technology PT Multimédia uses or will use in offering its products and services will not be rendered obsolete by new and superior technology. In addition, many of the new products and services that PT Multimédia intends to offer may also be offered by its competitors. Therefore, these new products and services may fail to generate revenue or attract and retain the level of customers that it currently anticipates.

        In addition, PT Multimédia's pay TV business depends on a large variety of digital signal satellite and cable reception equipment, including set-top boxes and ancillary equipment, in which PT Multimédia has made a significant investment and which is owned by PT Multimédia or its customers. PT Multimédia's revenues, financial position and results of operations could be materially adversely affected if a significant proportion of this equipment suffers failure or the equipment becomes obsolete as a result of new technology.

PT Multimédia is subject to competition in each of its business areas, including from Portugal Telecom.

        PT Multimédia faces competition in all of its business areas. As existing technology develops and new technologies emerge, competition is likely to intensify in all of these areas, particularly with regard to products and services related to pay TV and the Internet. PT Multimédia's TV services face competition from broadband local loop access based on broadband wireless access. In 2005, AR Telecom (formerly Jazztel) launched a broadband wireless access service in Lisbon and Oporto and is expected to invest considerably in its network in the coming years. Sonaecom launched an IPTV offer in 2006 that competes with PT Multimédia's television services. In July 2007, TV TEL, a cable operator

8



mainly operating in the region of Oporto, commenced the launch of a satellite service that may be accessible by all households in Portugal. Also, TV TEL has plans to further expand its cable network, particularly to the metropolitan area of Lisbon. When licenses are granted in the future, digital terrestrial television will be a direct competitor of PT Multimédia's TV business.

        In addition, following the spin-off, Portugal Telecom may pursue a business strategy that could conflict directly with PT Multimédia's strategy. For example, Portugal Telecom launched an Internet protocol television offer ("IPTV") in June 2007 that competes with PT Multimédia's television services.

        Some of the services PT Multimédia provides already compete with services provided by Portugal Telecom. For example, one of PT Multimédia's important strategies is the continued rollout of "triple play" services that include pay TV, broadband Internet and voice telephony and potentially the addition of mobile voice services to provide "quadruple play" services. The voice telephony component of these services competes directly with Portugal Telecom's wireline and domestic mobile services, and PT Multimédia's broadband Internet service competes with Portugal Telecom's ADSL Internet service. Following the spin-off, Portugal Telecom or PT Multimédia could pursue a price strategy that places downward pressure on prices and adversely affects the revenues and cash flows of either or both companies. Each of PT Multimédia and Portugal Telecom has significant market share in their competing businesses, and they are expected to be strong competitors in Internet access, voice telephony and pay TV after the completion of the spin-off.

        In its broadband Internet business, PT Multimédia's competitors have been steadily improving their broadband Internet services, and most now offer triple-play bundled packages (voice telephony, broadband Internet and pay TV subscription). With the increasingly intense competition in Internet broadband access and the development of technologies such as broadband wireless access, UMTS service and video over ADSL, PT Multimédia's ability to increase or sustain its current market share in the broadband market could be impaired, which could result in a loss of subscribers and revenues and adversely affect its results of operations.

        In its audiovisuals business, PT Multimédia also faces competition in film distribution, film rights marketing and film screening. For example, the number of film screening facilities in Portugal has increased considerably in recent years. The industry has aggressively embarked on the construction of more modern multiplexes, consisting of multiple smaller screening rooms, which has resulted in strong competition and has rendered some of PT Multimédia's investment in this area obsolete before the expected time. This competition could affect PT Multimédia's ability to attract and retain customers to its cinemas and adversely affect its revenues, financial position and results of operations.

As pay television penetration in Portugal continue to grow, the increasing difficulty in obtaining new subscribers is expected to adversely affect PT Multimédia's revenues and results of operations.

        A majority of PT Multimédia's revenues are derived from its cable and satellite pay television businesses. Cable and satellite pay television penetration in Portugal stood at 41.1% as of December 2006, compared to 39.7% as of December 2005, and penetration is expected to increase. As the Portuguese market matures, there will be fewer potential new customers, and PT Multimédia expects that an increasing share of its revenues will be derived from value-added services, such as new premium programming, voice telephony, video-on-demand services and broadband Internet access. However, revenues from these services may not compensate for the slowdown in new subscriber revenues, and competition for existing subscribers may intensify. This slowdown resulting from increased penetration is likely to adversely affect PT Multimédia's revenues and results of operations.

PT Multimédia's pay TV business depends on the availability of high-quality popular television programming.

        The success of television services offered by PT Multimédia depends on its ability to acquire popular programming and high-quality content, particularly sports content such as Portuguese soccer games and other sports programming. PT Multimédia's 50%-owned sports premium channel, Sport TV,

9



is the owner of broadcasting rights for several important sporting events through 2008. If PT Multimédia is unable to obtain such content rights after 2008, its pay TV business will be significantly impaired. We believe that Sport TV is a significant driver of new subscriptions for PT Multimédia.

        PT Multimédia obtains most of its programming from external sources, and access to that programming therefore depends on agreements directly or indirectly executed with important suppliers, including film studios, content producer companies and television operators. The programming acquisition agreements that PT Multimédia currently has in place may not be renewed upon expiration, or may not be renewed on favorable terms. PT Multimédia's programming joint ventures may also encounter difficulties in negotiating new agreements on terms acceptable to PT Multimédia. Any such difficulties could lead to a loss of television subscribers and a decrease in its ability to attract new subscribers or could lead to a significant increase in programming costs. Any of these results could have a material adverse effect on its revenues, financial position and results of operations.

PT Multimédia's pay TV business depends on third-party satellite technology that is subject to the risk of failure.

        PT Multimédia is dependent on a third-party satellite network that is subject, among other risks, to defects, destruction or damage and incorrect orbital placement, which may impair its commercial operations. If PT Multimédia is unable to lease sufficient satellite transponders or its contracts with satellite service providers are terminated, its business, financial position and results of operations would be materially adversely affected. Similarly, a prolonged failure of PT Multimédia's transmission systems or uplinking facilities could have a material adverse effect on its revenues, financial position and results of operations.

PT Multimédia is subject to unauthorized use of its TV and broadband Internet services, and its encryption technologies may not be effective in combating piracy.

        Access to the pay TV and broadband Internet services that PT Multimédia provides is protected by a series of access controls, and its programming signal is encrypted. In 2006, PT Multimédia completed the migration of its premium cable programs and its basic and premium satellite services from analog to digital service, which allows greater control over illegal access to TV programming and broadband Internet services. However, PT Multimédia has not switched off its basic analog cable packages. In addition, PT Multimédia must continually respond to efforts to breach its encryption system by updating its security measures and periodically swap digital customer "smart cards," which are intended to make signal misappropriation of its programming more difficult.

        These efforts increase costs, and PT Multimédia's efforts to encourage migration of customers to digital service by offering a greater selection of content for digital subscribers has significantly increased subscriber acquisition costs. A significant increase in the rate of illegal use of PT Multimédia's services, a change in technology that facilitates signal piracy or other factors could materially adversely affect PT Multimédia's revenues, expenses and results of operations. Additionally, illegal access to its competitors' programming could also increase the customer turnover rate, or churn, for PT Multimédia's services. If PT Multimédia's encryption and security systems are not perceived to be effective, PT Multimédia may also encounter difficulty in contracting for video and audio services provided by programmers.

DVD piracy and other illegal content distribution has had, and may continue to have, an adverse effect on PT Multimédia revenues.

        Forms of illegal film distribution have been increasing, both through pirate DVDs and through downloading of content through the Internet. In 2006, these illegal practices had an adverse effect on PT Multimédia's revenues from film screening and DVD distribution. If regulatory authorities are unable to control these illegal practices and to keep pace with new developments in technology, the

10



impact on PT Multimédia's film distribution business could be significant. PT Multimédia's cost to acquire film content is high, and the failure to generate sufficient revenue through film sales could adversely affect PT Multimédia's financial position and results of operations.

PT Multimédia's distribution agreements for cinema, video and television rights are short-term and may not be renewed.

        The business of distributing cinema, video and television film rights is based on distribution agreements for short-term periods subject to successive renewals. Many of the cinema, video and television producers with which PT Multimédia enters into agreements are large U.S. and European corporations whose willingness to renew or enter into new agreements with PT Multimédia may depend on considerations driven by other markets and over which PT Multimédia has no control. PT Multimédia's ability to provide quality programming is essential to its effort to build and maintain customer loyalty. Failure to renew agreements with cinema, video and television producers could materially affect PT Multimédia's customer base, revenues, financial position and results of operations.

Government regulation and uncertainties could adversely affect PT Multimédia's business.

        The application of existing laws to the Internet and Internet-related applications is currently being clarified and refined in Portugal and the European Union, and a number of statutes applicable to the Internet, content, e-commerce, encryption and electronic signatures, data protection and data retention and privacy have been recently approved in domestic law (Law No. 7/2004 and Law No. 41/2004) or may be approved in the near future. PT Multimédia is unable to predict the effect of these new measures or future measures on its broadband Internet service and its other businesses. Depending on the scope and timing of these developments and the interpretation and application of the new measures, changes in the regulation of the Internet could adversely affect PT Multimédia's business, financial position and results of operations, especially if PT Multimédia were required to make additional investments to adapt its networks to new specifications imposed by the legislative authorities.

Regulatory investigations and litigation may lead to fines or other penalties.

        PT Multimédia is regularly involved in litigation and regulatory inquiries and investigations involving its operations. PT Multimédia is regulated by the Portuguese telecommunications regulator, the ICP-Autoridade Nacional das Comunicações, or "ANACOM," the European Commission and the Autoridade da Concorrência, or the "Competition Authority," the Portuguese competition authority. PT Multimédia is subject to several current inquiries and investigations by the Competition Authority relating to alleged anti-competitive practices, including against:

        If PT Multimédia is found to be in violation of applicable laws and regulations in these or other regulatory inquiries and investigations, or in litigation proceedings, PT Multimédia may become subject to penalties, fines, damages or other sanctions. Any adverse outcome could have a material adverse effect on its business, cash flows, financial position and results of operations.

11



Taxation by municipalities has not been consistent, and the imposition of additional taxes could harm PT Multimédia's cash flows and financial position.

        The Electronic Communications Law (Law No. 5/2004, of February 10, 2004) provides for a Municipal Fee on Rights of Way (Taxa Municipal de Direitos de Passagem) or TMDP, in an amount equivalent to a percentage of up to 0.25% (to be determined up to this maximum by each municipality) of the amount of each invoice issued by companies (no VAT included) offering electronic communications networks and services to the public at a fixed location for all end customers in the relevant municipality. ANACOM Regulation No. 38/2004 of September 29, 2004 established the procedures for the collection and delivery to municipalities of the municipal fee for rights of way. According to this regulation, undertakings subject to the TMDP are required to pay the TMDP to municipalities based on the amounts collected by the end of the month following the date of an invoice. After Regulation No. 38/2004 became effective, municipalities began setting the percentage for the TMDP, which in most cases was set at 0.25%. The TMDP has been the source of continuing disputes with some municipalities, some of which have continued to assess municipal-level "Occupation Taxes" in addition to or in lieu of the TMDP. See "Information About PT Multimédia—Legal Proceedings—Tax Proceedings." If the municipalities were to prevail in these proceedings or if the TMDP regime were to be modified in the future to increase the rate payable by PT Multimédia, PT Multimédia's cash flows, financial position and results of operation could be adversely affected.

Any future imposition of a legal requirement to contribute to cultural funds or other regulatory actions could adversely affect PT Multimédia's financial position.

        From time to time, European regulators have implemented regulations designed to encourage the development of the local film and audiovisual industry. For example, in 2004, the Portuguese Law on Cinema Art and Audiovisuals (Law No. 42/2004, of August 18, 2004) created a contribution that must be paid by distributors of film and television to encourage and develop the film and audiovisual industry. Under Decree-Law No. 227/2006 of November 15, 2006, which implemented this law, television operators and distributors providing pay TV services are obligated to make a monthly contribution in the amount of 5% of their revenues arising from provision of these services. Film distributors are obligated to make a contribution to the Investment Fund for Cinema and Audiovisuals, with this contribution corresponding to the difference between 2% of their revenues arising from film screening and video distribution and their effective investment in cinematographic and audiovisual production. In addition, a contribution must be paid to the fund equal to 4% of the price paid for showing commercial advertising on television, in electronic programming guides or in movie theaters. PT Multimédia has agreed with the Portuguese Ministry of Culture to a total contribution of €25 million over a period of five years with respect to TV Cabo and PT Conteúdos. Such contributions to cultural funds increase the costs of PT Multimédia.

        Any future action by Portuguese or other European regulators to increase this type of contribution, impose similar charges, impose minimum quotas on Portuguese or European film screenings or similar regulatory actions could further increase PT Multimédia's costs and diminish its flexibility in operating its business. Depending on the magnitude of the obligations imposed, these regulatory actions could adversely affect PT Multimédia's results of operations.

Risks Related to the Spin-Off

PT Multimédia and Portugal Telecom may not realize all the potential benefits from the separation of PT Multimédia from Portugal Telecom.

        We cannot assure you that PT Multimédia or Portugal Telecom will realize all the potential benefits that we expect from the spin-off. In addition, PT Multimédia will incur significant costs, which may be greater than those expected, and will bear certain negative effects of its separation from us,

12



including loss of access to the financial and managerial resources of Portugal Telecom from which PT Multimédia has benefited in the past.

        Even if the benefits of the spin-off are ultimately realized, PT Multimédia may also need a period of transition before it is able to operate effectively as a fully independent company. As described more fully below, PT Multimédia will be party to a number of contracts after the spin-off and may have to manage increased costs in developing systems and business functions. In addition, PT Multimédia's management may require a period of transition to implement PT Multimédia's strategy as an independent company. All these factors could affect, during the transition period, PT Multimédia's agility in pursuing its strategy and reacting to events and could limit its ability to realize the potential benefits from the spin-off.

PT Multimédia is subject to competition in each of its business areas, including from Portugal Telecom.

        See "—Risks Related to PT Multimédia—PT Multimédia is subject to competition in each of its business areas, including from Portugal Telecom."

Conflicts of interest may arise between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia that could be resolved in a manner unfavorable to PT Multimédia.

        Questions relating to conflicts of interest may arise between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia in a number of areas relating to their past and ongoing relationships. Areas in which conflicts of interest between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia could arise include, but are not limited to, the following:

At the effective time of the spin-off, PT Multimédia will be the party to a number of important agreements with subsidiaries of Portugal Telecom, the most important of which are expected to be:

These contracts are described in greater detail under "Certain Relationships Between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia." All these contracts have been and are being negotiated while PT Multimédia is a subsidiary of Portugal Telecom. Conflicts could arise in the interpretation of these contracts or in any extension or renewal of the contracts after the spin-off.

PT Multimédia will continue to depend on Portugal Telecom's network to deliver its pay TV, Internet access and voice telephony services, and the network may not be available on acceptable terms.

        PT Multimédia's subsidiary TV Cabo leases capacity on the fiber optic network owned by Portugal Telecom's subsidiary PT Comunicações, which TV Cabo uses to provide pay TV, Internet access and voice telephony services. TV Cabo has entered into a contract with PT Comunicações that expires in December 2008 and is currently being re-negotiated. See "Certain Relationships Between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia."

13



        To be able to provide its services via cable, TV Cabo will have to renew its contract with PT Comunicações periodically, and it may not be able to do so on terms that allow it to preserve its current margins or at all. There is no other readily available fiber optic network in Portugal that TV Cabo could use to deliver its services, and PT Comunicações is not required to provide access to TV Cabo on terms acceptable to TV Cabo. An interruption in TV Cabo's access to the network or a significant increase in price charged by PT Comunicações for that access could materially adversely affect the financial position and results of operations of TV Cabo and PT Multimédia.

PT Multimédia's results as a subsidiary of Portugal Telecom may not be a reliable predictor of future results.

        PT Multimédia was created by Portugal Telecom in July 1999 to operate its multimedia businesses, and Portugal Telecom undertook an initial public offering in Portugal of a minority of PT Multimédia's ordinary shares in November 1999. Since then, PT Multimédia has been controlled by Portugal Telecom, and the two companies have shared many members of management as well as administrative and other functions. PT Multimédia has never operated independently of Portugal Telecom. Therefore, PT Multimédia's past financial condition and results of operations may not reliably predict PT Multimédia's prospects as an independent company.

PT Multimédia may experience increased costs after the spin-off or as a result of the spin-off, which could decrease its overall profitability.

        Historically, Portugal Telecom has performed a number of corporate functions for PT Multimédia's operations, such as financial reporting and treasury services. Although PT Multimédia has entered into contracts with subsidiaries of Portugal Telecom to provide some of these services after the spin-off, other services will be performed by PT Multimédia after the spin-off. PT Multimédia expects to hire a number of employees to undertake responsibilities formerly handled by Portugal Telecom or by employees ceded to PT Multimédia by Portugal Telecom. PT Multimédia may incur other costs associated with developing and implementing its own support functions and may have to dedicate management and employee time to develop these functions. When PT Multimédia begins to operate these functions independently, if it has not developed adequate systems and business functions, or has not obtained them from other providers, PT Multimédia may not be able to operate effectively and its profitability may decline.

The operations of PT Multimédia may depend on the availability of additional financing and, after the spin-off, it will not be able to obtain financing or guarantees from Portugal Telecom.

        Following the spin-off, PT Multimédia expects initially to have sufficient liquidity to support the development of its business. In the future, however, it may require additional financing for liquidity, capital requirements and growth initiatives. After the spin-off, Portugal Telecom will not provide funds to PT Multimédia, or otherwise facilitate its access to funds, by the granting of guarantees or otherwise. Accordingly, PT Multimédia will depend on its ability to generate cash flow from operations and to borrow funds and issue securities in the capital markets to maintain and expand its business. PT Multimédia may need to incur debt on terms and at interest rates that may not be as favorable as those historically enjoyed by PT Multimédia. Any inability by PT Multimédia to obtain financing in the future on favorable terms could have a negative effect on its financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to PT Multimédia's Ordinary Shares and ADSs

There is no existing trading market for PT Multimédia's ordinary shares in the United States, and PT Multimédia shareholders may not have liquidity to sell their shares.

        Portugal Telecom's ordinary shares are listed on the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon under the symbol "PTC" and traded on the New York Stock Exchange, or "NYSE," under the symbol "PT" in the form of ADSs, each representing one ordinary share. Portugal Telecom's ordinary shares

14



are quoted in Euros, while its ADSs are quoted in U.S. dollars. PT Multimédia's ordinary shares are listed on the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon and quoted only in Euros. Unlike Portugal Telecom, PT Multimédia has no listing in the United States and does not intend to obtain one. There is consequently no public market for PT Multimédia's ordinary shares in the United States. PT Multimédia's ADSs will be issued under a "Level I" ADS program, and the PT Multimédia ADSs will not be listed on any stock exchange.

        In addition, PT Multimédia is a much smaller company than Portugal Telecom, and its shares are less liquid. On October 12, 2007, Portugal Telecom had a total market capitalization of €10.6 billion, or US$15.0 billion, while PT Multimédia had a total market capitalization of €3.2 billion, or US$4.6 billion. In the spin-off, you will receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs with a less active and liquid trading market in comparison to Portugal Telecom's ordinary shares or PT ADSs. You may have difficulty selling your PT Multimédia ordinary shares, or the price at which you sell those shares may not be favorable and may be affected by their liquidity.

PT Multimédia's ADSs will not be listed on any stock exchange and their liquidity will be very limited.

        Holders of Portugal Telecom ADSs will receive ADSs of PT Multimédia in the spin-off, each of which will represent one PT Multimédia ordinary share. However, unlike Portugal Telecom's ADSs, the PT Multimédia ADSs will not be listed on any stock exchange. Any transfer of PT Multimédia ADSs will have to occur on the over-the-counter market, and the liquidity of the PT Multimédia ADSs is expected to be very limited. The liquidity of the PT Multimédia ADSs may further decrease to the extent that holders of PT Multimédia ADSs surrender those ADSs and withdraw the underlying ordinary shares after the spin-off.

It is not possible to predict the prices at which Portugal Telecom's and PT Multimédia's ordinary shares will trade after the spin-off.

        The market price of both Portugal Telecom's and PT Multimédia's ordinary shares may decline below their prices on the date of the spin-off. The market price of PT Multimédia's ordinary shares may fluctuate significantly due to a number of factors, including:

        Depending on the circumstances, the combined market price of the Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia ordinary shares you hold following the spin-off could be less than the market price of the Portugal Telecom ordinary shares you hold before the spin-off.

15



Substantial sales of PT Multimédia's shares following the spin-off may adversely affect the trading price of PT Multimédia's shares.

        All of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares held by persons who are not affiliates of Portugal Telecom may be sold in the market after the spin-off. Some of Portugal Telecom's shareholders who receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares may decide that their investment objectives do not include Internet via cable, pay TV, programming content, e-commerce and other businesses pursued by PT Multimédia and may sell their PT Multimédia ordinary shares following the spin-off. We cannot predict whether shareholders will sell large numbers of PT Multimédia ordinary shares in the public market following the spin-off or how quickly they may sell these shares. If PT Multimédia shareholders sell large numbers of PT Multimédia ordinary shares over a short period of time, or if investors anticipate large sales of PT Multimédia ordinary shares over a short period of time, this could adversely affect the market price of those shares.

        In addition, telecommunications or multimedia companies holding more than 10% of PT Multimédia's ordinary shares after the spin-off may be required to sell a portion of those shares. See "—PT Multimédia's organizational documents contain provisions that limit ownership by competitors and could discourage a change of control." For example, Telefónica, S.A., the Spanish telecommunications company, holds 9.96% of Portugal Telecom's ordinary shares and may hold more than 10% of PT Multimédia's ordinary shares following the spin-off. If Telefónica or another shareholder that is a telecommunications or multimedia company is forced to sell a portion of its shares, those sales could depress the market price of PT Multimédia's ordinary shares.

Due to the limited liquidity of PT Multimédia ordinary shares today and other factors, the market price of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares immediately after the spin-off may be lower than the price today.

        The spin-off will significantly increase the liquidity of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares, and shareholders may find it easier to sell shares after the spin-off. In addition to the considerations described in the preceding risk factor, this increased liquidity may lead to increased sales of PT Multimédia ordinary shares, which could adversely affect the market price of those shares. In addition, the valuation of PT Multimédia ordinary shares as a multiple of relevant earnings metrics is above that of other European and United States pay TV and multimedia companies, which may not be sustainable following the spin-off.

PT Multimédia's organizational documents contain provisions that limit ownership by competitors.

        PT Multimédia's articles of association (estatutos sociais) provide that no shareholder performing, directly or indirectly, an activity that competes with any of PT Multimédia's subsidiaries' activities may hold or control ordinary shares representing in the aggregate more than 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital without the authorization of a shareholders' meeting. The provision of telecommunications services or network capacity, media, interactive or non-interactive content and electronic commerce is considered a competing activity for this purpose. Entities that, directly or indirectly, hold at least 10% of the share capital of a company engaged in any of the activities above, or at least 10% of whose share capital is held by such a company, are considered to be indirectly engaged in a competing activity.

        If any such shareholder holds or controls ordinary shares in excess of 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital, the shareholders may decide at a shareholders' meeting to require the cancellation of the ordinary shares held in excess of such 10% limit. In that case, PT Multimédia must compensate the shareholder for the lesser of the nominal value of the cancelled ordinary shares or their market value, unless the shareholder receives permission from the board of directors to reduce the number of ordinary shares held to 10% or less of PT Multimédia's share capital.

16



        The articles of association also provide that the voting rights exercised by a single shareholder are limited to a maximum of 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital. As a result, no single shareholder can exercise voting rights, in his own name or on behalf of other shareholders, representing more than 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital.

PT Multimédia will not file periodic reports under the Exchange Act with the SEC.

        Under Rule 12g3-2(b), PT Multimédia will be required to make available on its website English-language versions of its annual report, press releases and certain other information made public in Portugal. However, PT Multimédia will not be required to file with the SEC annual reports on Form 20-F or furnish reports on Form 6-K. As a result, the level of disclosure and the type of information provided by PT Multimédia to holders of its ordinary shares and PTM ADSs may not be as extensive and detailed as it would have been had PT Multimédia been required to file its annual reports on Form 20-F and furnish reports on Form 6-K with the SEC. The information to be provided by PT Multimédia may also be less extensive than the information you are used to receiving as a holder of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs.

Holders of PTM ADSs may face disadvantages compared to an ordinary shareholder when attempting to exercise voting rights.

        Holders of PTM ADSs may instruct the Depositary to vote the ordinary shares underlying the ADSs. For the Depositary to follow the voting instructions, it must receive them on or before the date specified in PT Multimédia's voting materials. The Depositary must try, as far as practical, subject to Portuguese law and PT Multimédia's articles of association, to vote the ordinary shares as instructed. In most cases, if the PTM ADS holder does not give instructions to the Depositary, it may vote the ordinary shares in favor of proposals supported by PT Multimédia's board of directors, or, when practicable and permitted, give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by PT Multimédia. Neither Portugal Telecom nor PT Multimédia can be certain that PTM ADS holders will receive voting materials in time to ensure that they can instruct the Depositary to vote the underlying ordinary shares. Also, the Depositary is not responsible for failing to carry out voting instructions or for the manner of carrying out voting instructions. This means that PTM ADS holders may not be able to exercise their right to vote and there may be nothing they can do if their ordinary shares or other deposited securities are not voted as requested.

        In addition, unlike Portugal Telecom's articles of association, PT Multimédia's articles of association do not contain a provision that permits the Depositary to vote all the ordinary shares underlying the PTM ADSs even if those ordinary shares exceed 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital and would otherwise trigger the limitation described above under "—PT Multimédia's organizational documents contain provisions that limit ownership by competitors." As a result, if the total ordinary shares underlying PTM ADSs exceed 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital, the Depositary will not be able to give effect to any voting instructions with respect to the excess votes, and your voting rights could accordingly be limited.

Accounting and corporate disclosure standards for public companies listed in Portugal differ from those applicable to public companies in the United States and other jurisdictions.

        The financial information of PT Multimédia as presented in this information statement is prepared in accordance with IFRS, which differs in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in certain other countries, including the United States. Certain significant differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP are discussed in "Summary of Certain Differences Between IFRS and U.S. GAAP (Unaudited)." However, PT Multimédia has made no attempt to quantify the impact of these differences. Had PT Multimédia prepared its financial statements and the other financial information included in this information statement in accordance with U.S. GAAP, its results of operations and financial position could have been materially different. In addition, there may be less publicly available

17



Information about public companies listed in Portugal than is regularly made available by public companies in the United States or elsewhere.

If you are a U.S. tax resident, you will not be eligible for the reduced rates of Portuguese withholding tax on dividends under the U.S.-Portugal income tax treaty unless you fill out a form required by the Portuguese tax authorities and get it certified by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.

        The distribution of PT Multimédia ordinary shares and PTM ADSs in the spin-off will be taxable under Portuguese tax law. Under that law, dividends paid by Portuguese companies are subject to withholding tax at a 20% rate. However, under the U.S.-Portugal income tax treaty, the withholding tax rate on dividends distributed to U.S. tax residents may be reduced, as a general rule, to 15%. In order to apply the reduced treaty rate, confirmation that each shareholder is eligible for the benefits of the treaty is required. A specific form (Form 8-RFI of the Directorate-General of Taxes (Direcção Geral de Impostos—DGCI) of the Portuguese Ministry of Finance), duly certified by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, must be received by the custodian for the Depositary, if you are a holder of PT ADSs, or your financial intermediary, if you are a holder of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares, prior to the date the dividends are made available to shareholders.

        If this form is not available as of the relevant date, Portuguese withholding tax will be levied at the 20% rate. However, the 5% excess Portuguese withholding tax may be subsequently reimbursed by the Portuguese tax authorities pursuant to specific claims of individual shareholders on Form 14-RFI of the Directorate-General of Taxes (Direcção Geral de Impostos—DGCI) of the Portuguese Ministry of Finance, duly certified by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and presented to the Portuguese tax authorities within two years following the date the dividends are made available. See "The Spin-Off—Tax Considerations—Portuguese Tax Considerations."

        You should know that receiving certification of a Form 8-RFI or Form 14-RFI from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service can be a lengthy process. Therefore, it is unlikely that you will be able to receive certification of Form 8-RFI before the distribution date, and you will likely be subject, at least initially, to Portuguese withholding tax at the 20% rate. Although Portuguese law states that the excess withholding tax should be reimbursed within one year from the date the claim was submitted, we cannot guarantee if or when you will receive any reimbursement of the 5% excess Portuguese withholding tax even if you fill out Form 14-RFI and are eligible to receive reimbursement as described above. Please contact your tax advisor if you wish to fill out Form 8-RFI or Form 14-RFI to claim eligibility for the benefits of the treaty.

THE SPIN-OFF

Overview

        This information statement is being furnished solely to provide information to holders of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares and PT ADSs about the spin-off of ordinary shares of PT Multimédia. In the spin-off, we will distribute ordinary shares of our subsidiary PT Multimédia to holders of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares and PT ADSs. Holders of PT ADSs will receive PTM ADSs. The spin-off will be implemented in accordance with the laws of Portugal.

        The number of PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs to be received in the spin-off by a holder of Portugal Telecom shares or PT ADSs will be determined by multiplying the number of ordinary shares or PT ADSs held on November 1, 2007, the record date, by the spin-off ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share after the application of Portuguese withholding tax, as explained in this information statement. The spin-off ratio is 0.176067 PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs for every Portugal Telecom ordinary share or PT ADS held on the record date.

        The spin-off will be effective on the distribution date, which is expected to be November 7, 2007. The PTM ADSs will be delivered to PT ADS holders on or about three business days after the delivery of PTM ordinary shares to PT shareholders. An expected timetable for the spin-off is set forth under "Summary—Expected Timetable." In order to be entitled to receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares in the spin-off, Portugal Telecom shareholders must be shareholders at the close of business of the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon on the record date. Portugal Telecom ordinary shares will trade ex-right to PT Multimédia ordinary shares as from the second business day prior to the record date. In order to be entitled to receive PTM ADSs in the spin-off, holders of PT ADSs must hold those PT ADSs at the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange on the record date.

        The spin-off of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares and ADSs will be made in book-entry form. No fractional shares will be issued. Those shareholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractional shares will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares as further discussed below. Each PT Multimédia ordinary share that is distributed will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free of preemptive rights.

        Holders of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares and PT ADSs will not be required to pay for PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs received in the spin-off or to surrender or exchange Portugal Telecom shares or PT ADSs in order to receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs.

        Holders that are U.S. tax residents will need to fill out the tax forms described in "—Tax Considerations—Portuguese Tax Considerations" below to obtain the benefits of the U.S.-Portugal income tax treaty. In addition, holders of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares should make sure that the financial intermediaries through which they hold their shares have up-to-date information on their tax status. Any holder that is uncertain as to whether its financial intermediary has that information should contact its financial intermediary before the record date.

        After the spin-off, Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia are expected to operate as independent companies. Portugal Telecom is expected to retain approximately 7% of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares immediately after the spin-off due to the mechanics for applying withholding tax and adjustments for fractional shares as described below, but neither company is expected to have a role in the management of the other.

        Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia are parties to certain arms length contracts in the ordinary course of their businesses, and they will continue to be parties to a number of such contracts after the spin-off. See "Certain Relationships Between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia."

20



Reasons for the Spin-Off

        Portugal Telecom's management believes that the separation of PT Multimédia from Portugal Telecom will contribute positively to the development of the telecommunications market in Portugal, allowing the market to develop increasingly innovative and convergent services for consumers. We believe that the resulting market structure should give us flexibility to offer more and better services to our customers, while enabling PT Multimédia to pursue its own competitive strategy domestically and abroad. The separation will also allow the management of each company to focus on its core competencies, which is likely to create greater value for shareholders over time. The separation, although not required by any Portuguese or European Union authority, also addresses the long-standing objectives of the Portuguese regulators.

Spin-Off Ratio

        The number of PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs to be received by each holder of Portugal Telecom shares or PT ADSs in the spin-off will be determined by multiplying the number of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs held by such person on November 1, 2007, or the "record date," by the spin-off ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share after the application of Portuguese withholding tax, as explained in this information statement. The spin-off ratio is 0.176067 PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs for every Portugal Telecom ordinary share or PT ADS held on the record date.

        No PT Multimédia ordinary shares will be distributed to Portugal Telecom in respect of the Portugal Telecom ordinary shares held in treasury on the record date. Instead, the PT Multimédia ordinary shares that would otherwise have been attributed to Portugal Telecom ordinary shares held in treasury are being distributed pro rata to Portugal Telecom's shareholders and are reflected in the spin-off ratio.

Shareholder Approval

        In accordance with Portuguese law and our by-laws, the spin-off required the approval of shares representing more than 50% of the share capital of Portugal Telecom represented at a general meeting of shareholders. On April 27, 2007, our shareholders approved the spin-off by the requisite majority vote.

        We are not asking you for a proxy, and you are requested not to send us a proxy.

Appraisal Rights

        Holders of PT ordinary shares or ADSs will not be entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the spin-off. That is, Portuguese law does not give holders the right to demand an appraisal of the fair value of their Portugal Telecom ordinary shares of PT ADSs, or of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs they will receive in the spin-off, and the payment of any such amounts to them in lieu of participating in the spin-off.

Fractional Shares

        The application of the ratio for the distribution of PT Multimédia ordinary shares and ADSs to Portugal Telecom shareholders may result in fractional shares and ADSs for which Portugal Telecom shareholders are expected to receive cash. Each custodian bank through which shareholders hold Portugal Telecom shares in the Portuguese book-entry system will indicate the aggregate whole number of PT Multimédia ordinary shares to which its clients are entitled in the spin-off, net of Portuguese withholding tax as described below. In the spin-off, the custodian bank will receive those PT Multimédia ordinary shares and cash in an amount equal to the aggregate fractional PT Multimédia

21



ordinary shares to which its clients would be entitled, based on the closing price of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares on the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon on the trading day before the distribution date. The custodian bank will then distribute the cash to its clients as appropriate.

        The Bank of New York, as Depositary under Portugal Telecom's ADS program and holder of the Portugal Telecom ordinary shares underlying the PT ADSs, is expected to aggregate fractional PT ADSs and sell them in the over-the-counter market. The Bank of New York will distribute the cash resulting from those sales to PT ADS holders as appropriate.

        We currently expect to use our cash on hand or other working capital to fund such payments related to fractional shares.

Withholding Tax Mechanics

        In the spin-off, holders will receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares or PTM ADSs net of Portuguese withholding tax applied at their applicable tax rates.

        If you hold Portugal Telecom ordinary shares, an amount in cash from Portugal Telecom equal to your withholding tax obligations in the spin-off will be deposited with your financial intermediary on the same day that you receive PT Multimédia ordinary shares in the spin-off net of that withholding tax amount. Your financial intermediary will forward this cash amount to the Portuguese tax authorities on your behalf.

        If you hold PT ADSs, an amount in cash from Portugal Telecom equal to the withholding tax obligations of The Bank of New York, as holder of the Portugal Telecom ordinary shares underlying the PT ADSs (the "Depositary"), will be deposited in the account of Banco Espírito Santo, as custodian for the Depositary, on the same day that the custodian receives PT Multimédia ordinary shares in the spin-off net of that withholding tax amount. The custodian will forward this cash amount to the Portuguese tax authorities.

        The amount of cash from Portugal Telecom to be deposited in the accounts of financial intermediaries to enable those intermediaries to fulfill withholding tax obligations on behalf of holders of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares will be based on the closing price of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares on the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon on the trading day before the distribution date. Portugal Telecom is expected to obtain the funds necessary to make this deposit from cash on hand or working capital facilities.

        Immediately after the spin-off, Portugal Telecom will retain PT Multimédia ordinary shares having an aggregate market value (on the date described in the preceding paragraph) approximately equal to the total amount of cash deposited by Portugal Telecom to enable financial intermediaries to fulfill their withholding tax obligations in connection with the spin-off. Based on our estimates of the withholding tax rates of Portugal Telecom's shareholders, we expect that Portugal Telecom will withhold approximately 7% of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares due to the application of withholding tax. Portugal Telecom expects to sell these retained shares to one or more investors in private sales either concurrently with or following the spin-off. The agreements with such purchasers will prohibit those purchasers from selling the PT Multimédia shares for six months from the distribution date, except to affiliates.

Listing and Trading of PT Multimédia Ordinary Shares; No Listing for PT Multimédia ADSs

        PT Multimédia's ordinary shares are listed on the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon. See "Market Information—PT Multimédia" in this information statement for historical market prices information.

22



        There is no established public trading market for PT Multimédia ordinary shares in the United States. PT Multimédia does not currently intend to seek a listing of its ordinary shares in any other jurisdiction.

        The PTM ADSs will not be listed on any stock exchange and will be traded on the over-the-counter market. The liquidity of the PTM ADSs is expected to be very limited. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to PT Multimédia's Ordinary Shares and ADSs."

Former Class A Shares of PT Multimédia

        Until September 17, 2007, PT Multimédia had 102,000 outstanding Class A shares, which granted special rights to Portugal Telecom, as their sole holder, under PT Multimédia's by-laws. On September 17, 2007, all these Class A shares were converted into PT Multimédia ordinary shares, and such shares will be distributed to Portugal Telecom's shareholders with the other PT Multimédia ordinary shares in the spin-off.

Tax Considerations

U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations

        To ensure compliance with Internal Revenue Service Circular 230, you are hereby notified that any discussion of tax matters set forth in this information statement was written in connection with the promotion or marketing of the transactions or matters addressed herein and was not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of avoiding tax-related penalties under federal, state or local tax law. You should seek advice based on your particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

        The following summary describes certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the distribution by Portugal Telecom of the ordinary shares of PT Multimédia ("PT Multimédia Shares"), the PTM ADSs and cash in lieu of fractional shares, as well as certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs as of the date hereof. The discussion set forth below is applicable to U.S. Holders (as defined below) (i) who are residents of the United States for purposes of the convention between the United States of America and the Portuguese Republic for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income, including all protocols thereto (the "Treaty"), (ii) whose ordinary shares of Portugal Telecom ("PT Shares" and together with the PT Multimédia Shares, "Shares"), PT Multimédia Shares, PT ADSs (together with the PTM ADSs, "ADSs") or PTM ADSs are not, for purposes of the Treaty, effectively connected with a permanent establishment in Portugal and (iii) who otherwise qualify for the full benefits of the Treaty. Except where noted, this summary deals only with Shares and ADSs held as capital assets. As used herein, the term "U.S. Holder" means a holder of Shares or ADSs that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

23


        This summary does not represent a detailed description of the U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to you if you are subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, including if you are:


        The discussion below is based upon the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and regulations, rulings and judicial decisions thereunder as of the date hereof, and such authorities may be replaced, revoked or modified so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those discussed below. In addition, this summary is based, in part, upon representations made by the depositaries to us and PT Multimédia and assumes that the deposit agreements, and all other related agreements, have been and will be performed in accordance with their terms.

        If a partnership holds Shares or ADSs, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding Shares or ADSs, you should consult your tax advisors.

        This summary does not contain a detailed description of all the U.S. federal income tax consequences to you in light of your particular circumstances and does not address the effects of any state, local or non-U.S. tax laws. You should consult your own tax advisors concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences to you in light of your particular situation as well as any consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.

        The U.S. Treasury has expressed concerns that intermediaries in the chain of ownership between the holder of an ADS and the issuer of the security underlying the ADS may be taking actions that are inconsistent with the claiming of foreign tax credits for United States holders of ADSs. Such actions would also be inconsistent with the claiming of the reduced rate of tax, described below, applicable to dividends received by certain non-corporate holders. Accordingly, the analysis of the creditability of Portuguese taxes and the availability of the reduced tax rate for dividends received by certain non-corporate holders, each described below, could be affected by actions taken by intermediaries in the chain of ownership between the holder of an ADS and Portugal Telecom or PT Multimédia, as the case may be.

24



        The distribution of the PT Multimedia Shares and PTM ADSs (including cash distributed in lieu of fractional shares and amounts withheld, if any, to reflect Portuguese withholding taxes) will be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes and will be taxable as a dividend to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. The fair market value of the PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs (including any withheld taxes) will be includable in your gross income as ordinary income on the day actually or constructively received by you, in the case of PT Multimédia Shares, or by the Depositary, in the case of PTM ADSs, to the extent the distribution is treated as a dividend. This dividend will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code.

        To the extent that the fair market value of the PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs distributed to you exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, the distribution will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the adjusted basis of your PT Shares or PT ADSs (thereby increasing the amount of gain, or decreasing the amount of loss, to be recognized by you on a subsequent disposition of your PT Shares or PT ADSs), and the balance in excess of adjusted basis will be taxed as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange. Consequently, any amount of the distribution in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits would generally not give rise to foreign source income and you would generally not be able to use the foreign tax credit arising from any Portuguese withholding tax imposed on such amount unless such credit can be applied (subject to applicable limitations) against U.S. federal income tax due on other foreign source income in the appropriate category for foreign tax credit purposes. However, we do not expect to keep earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, you should expect that a distribution will generally be treated as a dividend (as discussed above).

        The amount of any cash dividend that you receive in the distribution in lieu of fractional shares that is paid in Euros will equal the U.S. dollar value of the Euros received calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the dividend is received as discussed below under "—Taxation of PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs—Taxation of Dividends."

        Because we believe we are a qualified foreign corporation, non-corporate U.S. Holders may be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation discussed below under "—Taxation of PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs—Taxation of Dividends," provided the holding period and other requirements discussed therein are met with respect to your PT Shares or PT ADSs.

        To the extent the distribution of the PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs is treated as a dividend for Portuguese income tax purposes, it will be subject to withholding at a maximum rate of 20%. As discussed in more detail under "Tax Considerations—Portuguese Tax Considerations," if, prior to the distribution, you properly demonstrate to the custodian for the Depositary, if you are a holder of PT ADSs, or to your financial intermediary, if you are a holder of PT Shares, your entitlement to the reduced rate of withholding under the Treaty, the maximum withholding rate will be reduced to 15%. If the requisite forms are not presented prior to the distribution, you may seek reimbursement of any excess withholding from the Portuguese tax authorities by following the procedures set forth below under "Tax Considerations—Portuguese Tax Considerations." Any Portuguese withholding taxes may be treated as foreign taxes eligible for credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability as discussed and subject to the limitations discussed below under "—Taxation of PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs—Taxation of Dividends."

        We do not believe that we are, or were in any prior years, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a PFIC, and we expect to operate in such a manner so as not to become a PFIC. If, however, we are a PFIC, or were in any year in which you held PT Shares or PT ADSs, you could be subject to additional U.S. federal income taxes on gain recognized with respect to the PT Shares or PT ADSs and on any

25



portion of the distribution of PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs that constitutes an "excess distribution," plus an interest charge on certain taxes treated as having been deferred under the PFIC rules that arise from such gain or excess distribution. Non-corporate U.S. Holders will not be eligible for reduced rates of taxation on any distributions treated as dividends (including any portion of the distribution of PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs treated as a dividend) if we are a PFIC in the taxable year in which such dividends are paid or in the preceding taxable year.

        In general, information reporting will apply and backup withholding may apply to the distribution of PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs as discussed below under "—Taxation of PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs—Information and Backup Withholding."

        If you hold PTM ADSs, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, you generally will be treated as the owner of the underlying PT Multimédia Shares that are represented by such PTM ADSs. Accordingly, deposits or withdrawals of PT Multimédia Shares for PTM ADSs will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax.

        Subject to the discussion under "—Passive Foreign Investment Company" below, the gross amount of distributions on the PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs (including amounts withheld to reflect Portuguese withholding taxes) will be taxable as dividends, to the extent paid out of PT Multimédia's current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Such income (including withheld taxes) will be includable in your gross income as ordinary income on the day actually or constructively received by you, in the case of PT Multimédia Shares, or by the Depositary, in the case of PTM ADSs. Such dividends will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code.

        With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders, certain dividends received before January 1, 2011 from a qualified foreign corporation may be subject to reduced rates of taxation. A qualified foreign corporation includes a foreign corporation that is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States that the United States Treasury Department determines to be satisfactory for these purposes and that includes an exchange of information provision. The United States Treasury Department has determined that the Treaty meets these requirements, and we believe PT Multimédia is eligible for the benefits of the Treaty. However, non-corporate U.S. Holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement during which they are not protected from a risk of loss or that elect to treat the dividend income as "investment income" pursuant to Section 163(d)(4) of the Code will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation. In addition, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. This disallowance applies even if the minimum holding period has been met. You should consult your own tax advisors regarding the application of this legislation to your particular circumstances.

        The amount of any dividend paid in Euros will equal the U.S. dollar value of the Euros received calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the dividend is received by you, in the case of PT Multimédia Shares, or by the Depositary, in the case of PTM ADSs, regardless of whether the Euros are converted into U.S. dollars. If the Euros received as a dividend are not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, you will have a basis in the Euros equal to their U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt. Any gain or loss realized on a subsequent conversion or other disposition of the Euros will be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss.

26



        The maximum rate of withholding tax on dividends paid to you is 20%. If you properly demonstrate to the custodian for the Depositary, if you are a holder of PTM ADSs, or to your financial intermediary, if you are a holder of PT Multimédia Shares, your entitlement to the reduced rate of withholding under the Treaty, the maximum rate of withholding tax on dividends paid to you thereafter will be reduced to 15%. If the requisite forms are not provided by the time the dividends are made available, you may seek reimbursement of any excess withholding tax on dividends paid to you by following the procedures set forth below under "Tax Considerations—Portuguese Tax Considerations." Subject to certain conditions and limitations, Portuguese withholding taxes on dividends may be treated as foreign taxes eligible for credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability. For purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit, dividends paid on PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs will be treated as income from sources outside the United States and will generally constitute passive income. Further, in certain circumstances, if you:

you will not be allowed a foreign tax credit for foreign taxes imposed on dividends paid on PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs. The rules governing the foreign tax credit are complex. You are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under your particular circumstances.

        To the extent that the amount of any distribution exceeds PT Multimédia's current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, the distribution will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the adjusted basis of the PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs (thereby increasing the amount of gain, or decreasing the amount of loss, to be recognized by you on a subsequent disposition of the PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs), and the balance in excess of adjusted basis will be taxed as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange. Consequently, such distributions in excess of PT Multimédia's current and accumulated earnings and profits would generally not give rise to foreign source income and you would generally not be able to use the foreign tax credit arising from any Portuguese withholding tax imposed on such distributions unless such credit can be applied (subject to applicable limitations) against U.S. federal income tax due on other foreign source income in the appropriate category for foreign tax credit purposes. However, PT Multimédia does not expect to keep earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, you should expect that a distribution will generally be treated as a dividend (as discussed above).

        Distributions of PTM ADSs, PT Multimédia Shares or rights to subscribe for PT Multimédia Shares that are received as part of a pro rata distribution to all of PT Multimédia's shareholders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax. The basis of the new PTM ADSs, PT Multimédia Shares or rights so received will generally be determined by allocating your basis in the old PTM ADSs or PT Multimédia Shares between the old PTM ADSs or PT Multimédia Shares and the new PTM ADSs or PT Multimédia Shares or rights received, based on their relative fair market values on the date of distribution.

        We do not believe that PT Multimédia is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a PFIC, and we expect PT Multimédia to operate in such a manner so as not to become a PFIC. If, however, PT Multimédia is or becomes a PFIC, you could be subject to additional U.S. federal income taxes on gain recognized with respect to the PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs and on certain distributions, plus an interest charge on certain taxes treated as having been deferred under the PFIC rules. Non-corporate U.S. Holders will not be eligible for reduced rates of taxation on any dividends received

27


from PT Multimédia prior to January 1, 2011, if PT Multimédia is a PFIC in the taxable year in which such dividends are paid or in the preceding taxable year.

        For U.S. federal income tax purposes and subject to the discussion under "—Passive Foreign Investment Company" above, you will recognize taxable gain or loss on any sale or exchange of PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized for the PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs and your tax basis in the PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs. Such gain or loss will generally be capital gain or loss. Capital gains of individuals derived with respect to capital assets held for more than one year are eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss recognized by you will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss, subject to possible resourcing pursuant to the Treaty.

        In general, information reporting will apply to dividends in respect of PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs and the proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs that are paid to you within the United States (and in certain cases, outside the United States), unless you are an exempt recipient such as a corporation. A backup withholding tax may apply to such payments if you fail to provide a taxpayer identification number or certification of other exempt status or fail to report full dividend and interest income.

        Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.

Portuguese Tax Considerations

        The following summary describes certain Portuguese tax consequences of the distribution by Portugal Telecom of the PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs and cash in lieu of fractional shares as well as certain Portuguese tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs as of the date hereof.

        The distribution of PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs will qualify as a taxable event for Portuguese tax purposes. The same regime will apply to any cash that you receive in the distribution in lieu of fractional shares.

        According to the Portuguese tax law, dividends paid by resident companies are subject to withholding tax at a 20% rate. Withholding tax on the PT Multimédia Shares or PTM ADSs received in the spin-off will be calculated on the basis of the closing price of the PT Multimédia Shares and PTM ADSs on the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon on November 6, 2007. Withholding tax on cash received in lieu of fractional shares will be calculated on the basis of the gross amount of cash each holder of PT Shares and PT ADSs is entitled to receive.

        However, under the Treaty, the withholding tax rate on dividends distributed to U.S. tax residents may be reduced, as a general rule, to 15%. In order to apply the reduced Treaty rate, confirmation that each shareholder is eligible for the benefits of the Treaty is required. Thus, a specific form (Form 8-RFI of the Directorate-General of Taxes (Direcção Geral de Impostos—DGCI) of the Portuguese Ministry of Finance), duly certified by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, must be received by the custodian for the Depositary, if you are a holder of PT ADSs, or your financial intermediary, if you are a holder of PT Shares, prior to the date the dividends are made available to shareholders.

28



        If this form is not available as of the relevant date, withholding tax will be levied at the 20% rate. However, the 5% excess withholding tax may be subsequently reimbursed by the Portuguese tax authorities pursuant to specific claims of individual shareholders on Form 14-RFI of the Directorate-General of Taxes (Direcção Geral de Impostos—DGCI) of the Portuguese Ministry of Finance, duly certified by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and presented to the Portuguese tax authorities within two years following the date the dividends are made available.

        Please contact your tax advisor if you wish to fill out Form 8-RFI or Form 14-RFI to claim eligibility for the benefits of the Treaty. You should know that receiving certification of a Form 8-RFI or Form 14-RFI from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service can be a lengthy process. Therefore, it is unlikely that you will be able to receive certification of Form 8-RFI before the distribution date, and you will likely be subject, at least initially, to withholding tax at the 20% rate. Nor can we guarantee if or when you will receive any reimbursement of the 5% excess withholding tax even if you fill out Form 14-RFI and are eligible to receive reimbursement as described above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to Portuguese law, the excess withholding tax should be reimbursed within one year from the date the claim is submitted.

        The distribution of dividends by PT Multimédia following the spin-off will qualify as a taxable event for Portuguese tax purposes. Under Portuguese tax law, dividends paid by Portuguese companies are subject to withholding tax at a 20% rate. As a general rule, under the Treaty, the withholding tax rate on dividends distributed to U.S. tax residents may be reduced to 15%.

        In order to apply the reduced Treaty rate (15%), a confirmation that each shareholder is entitled to benefit from the Treaty rules is required. Thus, a specific form (Form 8-RFI described above), duly certified by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, prior to the date the dividends are made available to shareholders, must be presented to the custodian for the Depositary, if you are a holder of PTM ADSs, or to your financial intermediary, if you are a holder of PT Multimédia Shares. If this form is not available as of the relevant date, withholding tax will be levied at the 20% domestic rate. However, the 15% excess withholding may be subsequently reimbursed by the Portuguese tax authorities pursuant to specific claims of individual shareholders on Form 14-RFI, duly certified by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and presented to the Portuguese tax authorities within two years following the date the dividends are made available.

        Capital gains realized by a U.S. tax resident on the disposal of shares of a Portuguese company are not subject to taxation in Portugal under the Treaty, provided that the property of such company does not consist, directly or indirectly, mainly of immovable property located in Portugal.

Background of the Spin-Off

        On February 6, 2006, Sonae, SGPS, S.A. and Sonaecom—SGPS, S.A., or collectively "Sonaecom," preliminarily announced an unsolicited tender offer for all the outstanding ordinary shares (including ordinary shares represented by American Depositary Shares) and convertible bonds of Portugal Telecom. Immediately after its preliminary announcement of the tender offer for Portugal Telecom ordinary shares and convertible bonds of Portugal Telecom, Sonae, SGPS, S.A., Sonaecom and their affiliates preliminarily announced a tender offer for all the outstanding ordinary shares of PT Multimédia. The PT Multimédia tender offer was conditioned upon, among other things, the successful purchase by Sonaecom of more than 50% of the ordinary shares of Portugal Telecom in the Portugal

29



Telecom tender offer. The Portugal Telecom tender offer, in turn, was subject to a number of conditions, including the removal of the 10% voting limitation from the bylaws of Portugal Telecom.

        In the context of the tender offer, management of Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia rearticulated their strategies for their business independent of Sonaecom. In this context, management considered strengthening PT Multimédia as an independent company as a way of creating shareholder value over time and addressing regulatory and other concerns.

        On August 3, 2006, the board of directors of Portugal Telecom approved the spin-off of PT Multimédia for the reasons discussed in "The Spin-Off—Reasons for the Spin-Off." One of the conditions to the spin-off was the failure of the Sonaecom offer.

        At the extraordinary meeting of shareholders of Portugal Telecom held on March 2, 2007, the removal of the 10% voting limitation contained in the bylaws of Portugal Telecom was rejected by the majority of the votes cast and the Sonaecom offer for Portugal Telecom lapsed. As a result, the conditions to the PT Multimédia tender offer were not met, and that tender offer also lapsed.

        On March 21, 2007, the board of directors of Portugal Telecom presented a specific proposal for the spin-off of PT Multimédia to Portugal Telecom's shareholders. Portugal Telecom's shareholders approved the spin-off at the annual general meeting of shareholders held on April 27, 2007.

        On September 21, 2007, PT Multimédia announced new management that will take office on the effective date of the spin-off. See "Management of PT Multimédia—Board of Directors and Executive Committee After the Spin-Off."

Regulatory Approvals

        We are not aware of any further approval or other action by any government or governmental administrative or regulatory authority or agency that would be required for the completion of the spin-off.

Treatment of Class A Shares of Portugal Telecom

        In addition to its ordinary shares, Portugal Telecom has 500 outstanding Class A shares that are held by an entity controlled by the Portuguese government. In the spin-off, the Portuguese government will receive ordinary shares of PT Multimédia in accordance with the spin-off ratio like other shareholders of Portugal Telecom. The ordinary shares to be received by the Portuguese government will have the same rights as any other ordinary shares of PT Multimédia and will not carry the special rights associated with the Class A shares of Portugal Telecom.

Mailing of Information Statement

        Portugal Telecom will mail this information statement to record holders of its ordinary shares who are residents of the United States and whose names appear on its shareholder list, as well as to record holders of PT ADSs whose names appear on the list of record holders of PT ADSs maintained by the Depositary. Portugal Telecom will also furnish this information statement to brokers, banks and similar persons who are listed as participants in a clearing agency's security position listing for subsequent transmission to beneficial owners of PT ADSs.

        One copy of this information statement is being delivered to multiple shareholders who share an address unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of the shareholders. Any record or beneficial holder of Portugal Telecom ordinary shares or PT ADSs may obtain an additional

30



copy of this information statement upon written or oral request to Portugal Telecom at the address and telephone number below.

Accounting Treatment for the Spin-Off

        Following the approval of the spin-off at the annual general meeting of shareholders of Portugal Telecom on April 27, 2007, the results of operations of PT Multimédia were reclassified by Portugal Telecom under discontinued operations for all future reportable periods, including the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007.

        For accounting purposes, the spin-off will be treated as a dividend in kind. Therefore, shareholders' equity of Portugal Telecom will be reduced by the carrying value of the investment of Portugal Telecom in PT Multimédia as at the record date.

Financial Advisors

        PT Multimédia has engaged Morgan Stanley & Co. Limited and UBS Limited to act as financial advisors in connection with the spin-off, for which they will receive customary fees. Morgan Stanley & Co. Limited and UBS Limited were also engaged by PT Multimédia to act as financial advisors in connection with PT Multimédia's response to the unsolicited tender offer by Sonae, SGPS, S.A. and Sonaecom—SGPS, S.A. for all the outstanding ordinary shares of PT Multimédia launched in February 2006. PT Multimédia has also agreed to indemnify these institutions for certain liabilities in connection with these engagements, including liabilities under applicable securities laws.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2006

        Our consolidated operating revenues increased to €2,955.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €2,805.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 5.4%. This increase reflected the higher contribution of (1) Vivo (€126 million), primarily due to the positive impact of changes in the interconnection regime in July 2006 as well as customer and ARPU growth, (2) TMN (€4 million), primarily due to an 8.4% increase in the number of customers as of June 2007 compared to the same period in 2006, partially offset by the negative impact of €12 million in revenues due to a reduction in mobile interconnection rates and (3) other businesses (€75 million), primarily due to the consolidation of MTC (€57 million). These effects were partially offset by the reduction of the wireline business contribution (€55 million), mainly as a result of lower voice revenues due to line loss, partially offset by an increase in revenues from ADSL Internet access services, wholesale and data and corporate.

        We present below the revenue information for each of our business segments. The revenue information for each segment in the tables below differs from the contribution to our consolidated revenues for each such segment in the table above because it is presented on a stand-alone basis and includes revenues from services rendered to other Portugal Telecom group companies.

        Wireline Business.    The table below sets forth the operating revenues from our wireline business for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007.

  Total   1,053.5   992.9   (5.7 )%

        Retail.    Retail revenues decreased 13.4% to €525.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €607.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease occurred mainly due to continued competition from other fixed and mobile operators, which has resulted in line loss and pricing pressure. PSTN and ISDN lines decreased to 3,146 thousand as of June 30, 2007 from 3,573 thousand as of June 30, 2006. Of those lines, 313 thousand lines were being used by customers of our wireline competitors through carrier pre-selection as of June 30, 2007, a decrease of 46.1% from 581 thousand lines as of June 30, 2006.

        The number of pricing plans in use by our customers increased significantly to 4,220 thousand as of June 30, 2007 from 2,283 thousand as of June 30, 2006, contributing to an increase in revenues from fixed charges. However, the growing percentage of flat rate pricing plans contributed in part to the decrease in traffic revenues. The decreases in traffic revenues and fixed charges were partially offset by a 7.0% increase in ADSL retail revenues to €90 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €84 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. ADSL retail lines increased to 715 thousand lines

46



as of June 30, 2007 from 636 thousand lines as of June 30, 2006, as customers continued to switch to ADSL service from dial-up Internet service.

        Wholesale.    Wholesale revenues increased by 1.9% to €235.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €230.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. This increase is primarily explained by growth in unbundled local loop (ULL) and wholesale line rental (WLR) revenues, which more than offset a reduction in revenues from leased lines.

        Data and Corporate.    Data and corporate revenues increased by 7.4% to €133.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €124.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, as a result of continued focus on providing increasingly more advanced and customized solutions to corporate customers in the areas of network management, outsourcing, virtual private networks (VPN) and circuits.

        Operating revenues from our domestic mobile business increased by 1.1% to €728.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €719.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily as a result of the increase in billing and sales revenues. Customer growth in the six months ended June 30, 2007 drove the performance of billing revenues, which increased 1.9% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. However, lower mobile termination rates (MTRs) led to a decline in interconnection revenues, which fell by 4.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2007. The reduction in mobile termination rates through 2006 to €0.11 per minute at the beginning of October 2006 led to an average annual decline of 10.2% in those rates. Excluding the €12 million impact of lower MTRs, service revenues would have increased by 2.5% in the six months ended June 30, 2007. Revenues from sales of handsets increased by 6.1% to €57 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €54 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006.

Amounts presented in Euros correspond to the proportional consolidation of 50% of Vivo's operating revenues, while amounts presented in Reais correspond to 100% of Vivo's operating revenues.

        Operating revenues from our Brazilian mobile business increased by 12.4% to €1,140.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €1,014.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, and increased by 13.6% in local currency. The change in the interconnection regime in July 2006 had a positive impact on revenues of R$128 million. In addition, the 20.8% increase in service revenues was also due to a 6% increase in the number of customers to 30,241 as of June 30, 2007 and an increase in average revenue per user (ARPU) per month, which increased by 21% in local currency terms for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006.

        Other Businesses.    Operating revenues from our other businesses contributed €189.1 million to our consolidated operating revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €114.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to the full consolidation of MTC for the first time in 2006 following the acquisition of a 34% stake in this company in September 2006.

        As explained in more detail below, our costs increased in the six months ended June 30, 2007 primarily due to an increase in direct costs and curtailment costs, partially offset by a reduction in post retirement benefit expenses, provisions and adjustments.

        Wages and Salaries.    Wages and salaries, including employee benefits and social charges, decreased by 2.9% to €322.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €332.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily as a result of an 8.8% decrease in wages and salaries in the wireline business as a result of the ongoing redundancy program and the focus on containing wage increases.

        Post Retirement Benefits.    We recorded a €17.3 million gain from post retirement benefits in the six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily as a result of prior years' service gains related to vested rights in the amount of €36 million, resulting from changes in Social Security regulations and the formulas used by Portugal Telecom to calculate pension supplements. The decrease in post retirement benefits is also explained by a reduction in service costs, primarily due to the decrease in healthcare obligations that occurred at the end of 2006. This cost item does not include early termination costs related to our workforce reduction program.

        Direct Costs.    Direct costs increased by 36.9% to €428.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €312.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. Telecommunications costs, which are the main component of direct costs, increased 48.6% to €344 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due to an increase in telecommunications costs at Vivo (€113 million), mainly due to the end of the partial "Bill & Keep" interconnection regime. This increase was partially offset by a

48



reduction in telecommunications costs in the wireline business (€5 million) and the domestic mobile business (€8 million), primarily due to lower wireline traffic volumes and lower fixed-to-mobile and mobile-to-mobile interconnection rates in Portugal.

        Costs of Products Sold.    The costs of products sold decreased by 3.4% to €276.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €286.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily as a result of lower handset prices at Vivo and from the appreciation of the Real against the U.S. dollar, notwithstanding an increase in Vivo's commercial activity.

        Support Services.    Support services decreased by 2.4% to €102.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €104.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction of support services at the wireline business, partially offset by an increase in support services at TMN (€4 million), related primarily to growth in call center expenses because of increases in commercial activity.

        Marketing and Publicity.    Marketing and publicity remained stable at €65.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, with a reduction at Vivo (€4 million) being offset by the marketing expenses at MTC (€3 million) and an increase at TMN (€1 million).

        Supplies and External Services.    Supplies and external services increased by 1.3% to €458.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €453.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. Commissions decreased by €10 million, primarily at Vivo, but this decrease was more than offset by the increase in other supplies and external services by €15 million, primarily due to an increase at Vivo (€6 million) and the consolidation of MTC (€5 million).

        Indirect Taxes.    Indirect taxes increased by 8.2% to €97.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €89.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily due to an increase in spectrum fees at Vivo and TMN.

        Provisions and Adjustments.    Provisions and adjustments decreased by 47.0% to €75.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €142.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily related to the decreases of €56 million and €13 million at Vivo and the wireline business, respectively, mainly due to a reduction in doubtful accounts receivable at both these businesses and also due to the effect on 2006 results of a €30 million provision recorded by Vivo in the six months ended June 30, 2006 because of billing problems associated with the migration of systems to a unified platform.

        Depreciation and Amortization.    Depreciation and amortization costs decreased 3.0% to €540.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €557.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 due to a reduction across all businesses: Vivo (€12 million), wireline (€8 million) and TMN (€2 million). The decrease at Vivo is primarily explained by the appreciation of the Euro against the Real (€3 million) and by a reduction in the amortization of intangible assets (€10 million), primarily related to the amortization of certain intangible assets identified in the purchase price allocation for the October 2004 tender offers, which were amortized over a two-year period that ended in September 2006. These effects were partially offset by the effect of consolidation of MTC (€6 million).

        Work Force Reduction Program Costs.    Work force reduction program costs increased to €84.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €25.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. Work force reduction program costs in the six months ended June 30, 2007 were related to the reduction in headcount of 253 employees.

        Other Costs, Net.    Other costs amounted to €14.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €20.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease is primarily due to expenses incurred by Portugal Telecom totaling €13 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 and €7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 related to the tender offer launched on Portugal Telecom in 2006.

49


        Net Interest Expenses.    Net interest expenses decreased by 17.9% to €90.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €110.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily as a result of a reduction in the average cost of debt in Portugal and Brazil, as well as a decrease in Vivo's average net debt. Excluding net interest incurred by Vivo and the interest cost associated with the equity swaps for shares of PT Multimédia, the average cost of debt was 3.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 3.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2006.

        Net Foreign Currency Exchange Gains.    We had net foreign currency gains of €2.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €1.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. In both periods, this item primarily included foreign currency gains related to the effect of the appreciation of the Real against the U.S. dollar on Vivo's U.S. dollar debt not swapped to Reais, partially offset by foreign currency losses related to dividends receivable from Unitel (denominated in U.S. dollars) following the devaluation of the U.S. dollar against the Euro.

        Losses (Gains) on Financial Assets, Net.    We recorded net gains on financial assets of €142.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to net losses on financial assets of €12.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This caption primarily includes the effects of (1) the change in the fair value of equity swap contracts for PT Multimédia ordinary shares (gains of €77 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to losses of €7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006), (2) the financial settlement of equity swaps for Portugal Telecom's own shares in the six months ended June 30, 2007 (gains of €31 million) and (3) the disposal of our investment in Banco Espírito Santo during the first half of 2007 (gains of €36 million).

        Equity in Earnings of Affiliated Companies, Net.    Equity in earnings of affiliated companies amounted to €52.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €45.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This item primarily included our share in the earnings of Unitel in Angola (€42 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €36 million in the same period of last year) and CTM in Macao (€9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €8 million in the same period of last year).

        Net Other Financial Expenses.    Net other financial expenses decreased to €17.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €29.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 and include banking services expenses, commissions, financial discounts and other financing costs. The reduction of €12 million was primarily related to financial taxes paid by Vivo in the six months ended June 30, 2006 in connection with a debt restructuring that occurred in that period and decrease of €4 million in net financial discounts granted by Vivo.

        Income taxes increased to €141.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to a gain of €65.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. The increase in this caption is primarily related to the recognition in the six months ended June 30, 2006 of (1) a tax credit amounting to €53 million following the liquidation of a holding company, and (2) a €142 million gain in connection with a reduction of deferred tax liabilities resulting from the voluntary taxation of certain capital gains. Adjusting for these effects, provision for income taxes would have been €130 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to €141 million in the same period of 2007, corresponding to an effective tax rate of 45% and 24% in the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is mainly due to (1) a reduction in net losses at certain Vivo subsidiaries that did not generate a recognition of related deferred tax assets, following the corporate restructuring completed in the end of 2006, (2) the change in the statutory tax rate in Portugal from 27.5% in 2006 to 26.5% in 2007, and (3) the recording of certain non-taxable capital gains in the six months ended June 30, 2007.

        For the reasons described above, net income from continuing operations increased 25.5% to €443.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to €353.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006.

        Discontinued operations reflect the results of companies that have been disposed of during the reportable periods and the after-tax gains obtained with the sale of these investments. Income from discontinued operations in the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007 includes the earnings of PT Multimédia before minority interests following the approval of the spin-off in April 2007. In the six months ended June 30, 2007, this line item also includes a provision related to employee, organizational and IT restructuring costs in connection with the spin-off, which amounted to €13 million net of taxes.

        Net income (before minority interests) increased by 18.5% to €471.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €398.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 for the reasons described above.

        Net income from our wireline business decreased by 18.3% to €178.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €217.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, partly due to the workforce reduction program increase in curtailment costs, partially offset by the decrease in post retirement benefits.

        Net income from our domestic mobile business increased by 8.0% to €165.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €152.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily due to the increase in operating revenues net of direct costs and costs of products sold.

        Net losses (before minority interests) from our Brazilian mobile business decreased to €14.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €118.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, mainly due to a reduction in provisions.

        Net income attributable to minority interests increased to €42.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from net losses of €3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, mainly as a result of the increase in income attributable to Vivo minority interests (from net losses attributable to minority interests amounting to €29 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 to net gains attributable to minority interests amounting to €5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007) and income attributable to the minority interests of MTC (€11 million).

        For the reasons described above, our net income attributable to equity holders of Portugal Telecom increased by 6.9% to €429.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €401.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006.

        Basic earnings per ordinary and A shares from total operations in the six months ended June 30, 2007 increased to €0.39 in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €0.36 in the six months ended June 30, 2006 on the basis of 1,128,856,500 shares issued at June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

        Our principal sources of funding for our capital requirements are cash generated from our operations and equity and debt financing. Our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments decreased 35.1% to €1,351.4 million as of June 30, 2007 from €2,083.7 million as of June 30, 2006. We believe that our cash balances, together with the cash that we expect to generate from our operations and available liquidity under our credit facilities and lines of credit, are currently sufficient to meet our present funding needs.

Cash Flows

        The table below sets forth a breakdown of our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

 
  Six Months Ended June 30,
 
 
  2006
  2007
 
 
  (€ millions)

 
Cash flow from operating activities   595.7   843.1  
Cash flow from investing activities   1,794.7   570.9  
Cash flow used in financing activities   (2,733.8 ) (1,483.9 )
   
 
 
  Total   (343.4 ) (69.9 )

        Cash Flow From Operating Activities.    Cash flows from, and used in, operating activities primarily include collections from clients, payments to suppliers and employees, payments relating to income taxes and post retirement benefits, as well as the cash flows from discontinued operations relating to operating activities. Our cash flows from operating activities result primarily from operations conducted by our subsidiaries and not by Portugal Telecom. None of our subsidiaries is subject to economic or legal restrictions on transferring funds to us in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances that would materially affect our ability to meet our cash obligations. Our joint venture in Brazil is subject to provisions relating to important decisions, including the declaration and/or payment of dividends or other distributions by Brasilcel, the corporate entity that holds the joint venture's interests in Vivo. A proposal by the managing board of Brasilcel for the payment of dividends or other distributions requires the approval of Brasilcel's supervisory board and Brasilcel's shareholders. Because of the composition of Brasilcel's supervisory board and the 50% interest of each party in the joint venture, it is effectively be necessary for Telefónica and us to agree to transfer funds from Vivo and its subsidiaries to us if we wish to do so.

        Net cash flow from operating activities increased by 41.5% to €843.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €595.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to a €109.6 million increase in collections from customers and a €273.3 million decrease in payments relating to post retirement benefits, mainly as result of a reduction in the contributions to our pension funds. These effects were partially offset by a €86.9 million reduction in income tax payments, primarily explained by the full utilization of the tax loss carryforwards from our consolidated tax group by the end of 2006 and by a €65.7 million reduction in payments to suppliers.

        Cash Flow From Investing Activities.    Cash flows from investing activities include proceeds of dispositions of investments in associated companies and property, plant and equipment, as well as interest and related income on investments. Cash flows used in investing activities primarily include investments in short-term financial applications, capital expenditures for telecommunications equipment and investments in other companies. Total cash flows relating to investing activities also include cash flows from discontinued operations relating to investing activities.

52



        Net cash receipts from investing activities decreased to €570.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €1,794.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in net cash receipts from short-term financial applications, primarily because we had maintained higher balances of short-term financial applications maintained by Portugal Telecom in 2006 as part of our centralized cash management strategy, including for purposes of repaying debt due in 2006. This effect was partially offset by (1) cash receipts from disposals of investments amounting to €115.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, mainly related to the disposal of investment in Banco Espírito Santo (€110 million) and (2) an increase of €99 million in cash receipts resulting from other investing activities, primarily related to the cash settlement of equity swaps for shares of PT Multimédia (€94 million).

        Cash Flows Used In Financing Activities.    Cash flows used in financing activities include borrowings and repayments of debt, payments of interest on debt and payments of dividends to shareholders. Cash flows from financing activities primarily consist of borrowings. Total cash flows relating to financing activities also include cash flows from discontinued operations relating to financing activities.

        Net cash payments from financing activities amounted to €1,483.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to €2,733.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. In the six months ended June 30, 2007, cash payments for the repayment of loans, net of cash receipts from loans obtained, amounted to €641.0 million and primarily related to a reduction in outstanding amounts under our short-term commercial paper programs from €749.4 million at the end of 2006 to €239.8 million as of June 30, 2007. In the six months ended June 30, 2006, cash payments for the repayment of loans, net of cash receipts from loans obtained, amounted to €1,709.1 million and primarily included (1) €899.5 million related to the repayment of the notes issued by PT Finance in February 2001 and (2) €500.0 million related to the partial repayment of our multicurrency credit facility entered into in 2003.

        In the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, we paid dividends of €530.4 million and €529.7 million, respectively.

Indebtedness

        Our total consolidated indebtedness decreased by 3.6% to €5,631.9 million as of June 30, 2007, compared to €5,840.3 million at the end of 2006, mainly due to (1) a reduction in outstanding amounts under our short-term commercial paper programs from €749.4 million to €239.8 million, and (2) the classification of the multimedia business as a discounted operation as at June 30, 2007. These effects were partially offset by an increase in the liability for equity swaps for own shares from €187.6 million to €$776.8 million. Our cash and cash equivalents decreased by 14.9% to €463.0 million as of June 30, 2007 from €548.5 million at the end of 2006, and our short-term investments decreased by 42.1% to €888.4 million as of June 30, 2007 from €1,535.2 million at the end of 2006, primarily due to dividend payments.

        Maturity.    Of the total indebtedness outstanding as at June 30, 2007, €1,372.6 million is due before the end of June 2008. The remaining €4,467.5 million is classified as medium and long-term debt. The average maturity of our total indebtedness is 4.6 years.

        Interest Rates.    As at June 30, 2007, 59.9% of our total indebtedness was at fixed rates, primarily as a result of the fixed-rate bonds issued in 1999 and 2005.

        Credit Ratings.    Our credit ratings are currently as follows:

        Please see "Item 5—Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" in the 2006 PT Annual Report for further information relating to our credit ratings.

        Debt Instruments and Repayment and Refinancing of Indebtedness.    Please see "Item 5—Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" in the 2006 PT Annual Report for further information relating to our debt instruments.

        Covenants.    Our debt instruments contain certain covenants, as well as customary default and cross- acceleration provisions, which are described in "Item 5—Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" in the 2006 PT Annual Report.

Post Retirement Benefits

        Please see "Item 5—Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Post Retirement Benefits" in the 2006 PT Annual Report for further information about our post retirement benefit obligations. The discussion below is intended only to highlight certain changes in our post retirement benefit obligations since December 31, 2006.

54



        The table below shows the evolution of our unfunded obligations during the six months ended June 30, 2007.

 
  Six Months Ended
June 30, 2007

 
Unfunded obligations (initial balance)   1,654.4  
Post retirement benefit gains   (17.3 )
Workforce program reduction costs   82.0  
Contributions and payments   (161.3 )
Net actuarial gains   (321.6 )
Prior year service gains related to active employees   (4.4 )
   
 
Unfunded obligations (final balance)   1,231.7  
   
 

        The reduction in the gross unfunded obligations is primarily related to the net actuarial gains booked in the six months ended June 30, 2007 (€322 million) and the extraordinary contributions made during the same period (€117 million). Net actuarial gains in the six months ended June 30, 2007 include the impact of the changes in actuarial assumptions (€242 million) and of differences between those actuarial assumptions and actual data (€80 million). The change in actuarial assumptions corresponds to the effect of the increase in the discount rate from 4.75% to 5.25% for pension and healthcare liabilities and from 4.25% to 4.75% for salary liabilities, reflecting the evolution of market yields during the period.

        During the first half of 2007, the Decree Law 187/2007 of May 10, 2007 was published, introducing changes to pension formulas to guarantee the sustainability of the Portuguese social security system. These changes applied to some of PT Comunicações's plans, which led to a reduction in our total liability. In addition, PT Comunicações reduced the benefits granted under the same pension plans. The impact of these changes in benefits, reduced PT's pension liability by €42.8 million, of which €37.2 million was recognized as a prior year service gain because it was related to vested rights (included under the "post retirement benefit gains") and the remaining €5.5 million was related to unvested rights and therefore deferred.

        The asset allocation of our pension and healthcare benefit funds as of June 30, 2007 was 47.9% equity, 33.9% bonds, 5.9% real estate and 13.2% cash and others. As of June 30, 2007, the market value of the funds was €3,048 million, resulting in a gross unfunded liability related to our post retirement benefits of €1,232 million.

Equity

        Our total equity excluding minority interests amounted to €2,003.0 million at June 30, 2007, compared to €2,255.2 million at the end of 2006.

        The decrease in total equity excluding minority interests in the six months ended June 30, 2007 was primarily related to dividends paid (€516.5 million) and the acquisition of treasury shares through equity swaps (€589.2 million). These effects were partially offset by the net income for the period (€429.1million), the net actuarial gains recorded in the period (€236.4 million, net of tax) and the effect of currency translation adjustments (€207.8 million), primarily due to the appreciation of the Real against the Euro in 2006.

        Our total equity excluding minority interests as a percentage of total assets decreased from 15.9% at the end of June 30, 2006 to 14.9% as of June 30, 2007.

        We make adjustments to equity in response to fluctuations in the value of the foreign currencies in which we have made investments, including the Brazilian Real. When we adopted IFRS, an exemption under IFRS 1 permitted us to deem cumulative translation differences to be zero at the date of

55



transition to IFRS (January 1, 2004). Cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments recorded in shareholders' equity were negative €40.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 and €207.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007. As a result of the adoption of IFRS and the exemption under IFRS 1, translation differences that arose after the date of transition to IFRS will be recognized in profits and losses upon the disposal of the related investment.

Capital Expenditures

        In the first six months of 2007, we made capital expenditures totaling €306.8 million, primarily relating to our mobile business in Brazil and to the wireline business. The table below sets forth our capital expenditures for the periods indicated:

Based on Euro/Real average exchange rate of 2.7218 for the first half of 2007 and 2.6925 for the first half of 2006.

        Capital expenditures increased by 9.2% as of June 30, 2007 to €307 million compared to the same period in 2006. In the first half of 2007, capital expenditures in the wireline business were directed mainly towards (1) network upgrades to provide greater bandwidth to customers, (2) the preparation of the network and information systems for the launch of IPTV (which had a "soft launch" in the second quarter of 2007) and (3) client-related expenditures as a result of investments in terminal equipment for corporate clients.

        Capital expenditures in the domestic mobile business were directed primarily towards network capacity and 3G/3.5G coverage (approximately 76% of network capital expenditures). In addition, as part of TMN's UMTS licence obligations, capital expenditures in the first half of 2007 included a contribution of €8 million to a fund aimed at promoting the development of the information society in Portugal. At the end of June 2007, TMN's 3G network covered approximately 85% of the population.

        Capital expenditures in the Brazilian mobile business were directed towards (1) the implementation of the GSM/EDGE overlay on Vivo's network and (2) network coverage and quality. The GSM/EDGE network overlay currently covers 96% of the municipalities with CDMA coverage. Approximately 76% of the capital expenditures related to the initial GSM/EDGE rollout, as announced in July 2006, had been invested as of June 20, 2007.

        Capital expenditures included in the "Other" line in the table above increased primarily as a result of the consolidation of MTC (€15 million).

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF PT MULTIMÉDIA

        You should read the following discussion of PT Multimédia's financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of PT Multimédia as of and for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006 and for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, in each case included in this information statement.

        PT Multimédia's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS, as adopted by the European Commission for use in the European Union. IFRS differs in significant respects from U.S. GAAP. For a narrative discussion of the principal differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP, see "Summary of Certain Differences Between IFRS and U.S. GAAP (Unaudited)."

        This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Please see "Special Note About Forward-Looking Statements" for more information. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this information statement, particularly under the heading "Risk Factors."

Overview

        PT Multimédia's business is affected by a number of significant industry trends. In addition, in 2004 and 2005, PT Multimédia's results of operations were affected by one-time events that make year-to-year comparisons more difficult. Some of these important factors are summarized below:


        PT Multimédia, through its subsidiary PT Conteúdos, acquired an additional 16.67% stake in Sport TV in a purchase completed in April 2004, increasing its ownership in that company to 50%. PT Multimédia proportionally consolidates the financial results of Sport TV in its consolidated financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007 and for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006.

57


        PT Multimédia applies IFRS, as adopted by the European Commission for use in the European Union, including all applicable interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee. For PT Multimédia, there are no differences between IFRS as adopted by the EU and IFRS as published by the International Accounting Standards Board. PT Multimédia's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS include comparative financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006. IFRS requires that an entity develop accounting policies based on the standards and related interpretations effective at the reporting date of its first annual IFRS consolidated financial statements. These accounting policies must be applied as of the date of transition to IFRS (January 1, 2004) and throughout all periods presented in the first IFRS consolidated financial statements.

        In general, the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet under Portuguese GAAP for the year ended December 31, 2003 must be recognized and measured retrospectively in the opening IFRS consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2004 on the basis of those standards under IFRS in force at December 31, 2005. IFRS 1 nevertheless provides exemptions from this principle in specific cases. The principal exemption applied by PT Multimédia relates to business combinations. Under the exemption, PT Multimédia is not required to apply IFRS 3, Business Combinations, retroactively to business combinations that took place before the date of transition to IFRS. PT Multimédia has applied this exemption and has therefore recorded goodwill relating to business combinations prior to January 1, 2004 as it was recorded under Portuguese GAAP. Since January 1, 2004, goodwill has not been amortized and business combinations since that date have been recorded in accordance with IFRS 3. At the date of transition to IFRS, goodwill was tested for impairment (i.e., a reduction in its recoverable amount to below its carrying amount) and was written down, if required. Historical cost and accumulated goodwill amortization were netted for the purpose of preparing the opening IFRS consolidated balance sheet. If PT Multimédia had not applied this exemption, it would have had to measure net assets acquired in acquisitions that took place prior to January 1, 2004 at fair value. If it had not applied the exemption, we believe that the net assets related to companies acquired prior to January 1, 2004 on PT Multimédia's opening IFRS consolidated balance sheet could have been higher and its goodwill could have been lower.

Critical Accounting Policies

        This discussion and analysis of PT Multimédia's financial condition and results of operations is based on its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. The reported financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to accounting methods, assumptions and estimates that underlie preparation of the financial statements. PT Multimédia bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, the results of which form the basis for judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

        The following critical accounting policies involve the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of PT Multimédia's consolidated financial statements.

        Accounting for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets involves the use of estimates for determining fair value at the acquisition date, in particular in the case of assets acquired in a business combination, and for determining the expected useful lives of those assets. The determination

58


of the fair values of assets, as well as of the useful lives of the assets, is based on management's judgment.

        The determination of impairments of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets involves the use of estimates that include, but are not limited to, the cause, timing and amount of the impairment. Impairment is based on a large number of factors, such as changes in current competitive conditions, expectations of growth in the telecommunications industry, increased cost of capital, changes in the future availability of financing, technological obsolescence, discontinuance of services, current replacement costs, prices paid in comparable transactions and other changes in circumstances that indicate an impairment exists. The determination of recoverable amounts and fair values are typically based on discounted cash flow methodologies that incorporate reasonable market assumptions. The identification of impairment indicators, the estimation of future cash flows and the determination of fair values of assets (or groups of assets) require management to make significant judgments concerning the identification and validation of impairment indicators, expected cash flows, applicable discount rates, useful lives and residual values. At December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, PT Multimédia concluded that the carrying value of these assets (other than goodwill) did not exceed their recoverable amounts.

        Goodwill arising on consolidation represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over PT Multimédia's interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary at the date of acquisition. The assets and liabilities acquired are measured provisionally at the date on which control is acquired, and the resulting value is reviewed in a maximum period of one year from the date of acquisition. Until the fair value of the assets and liabilities has been definitively determined, the difference between the cost of acquisition and the carrying amount of the company acquired is recognized provisionally as goodwill.

        Goodwill acquired on or after January 1, 2004 is measured at acquisition cost, and goodwill acquired in previous periods is recognized at the carrying amount at December 31, 2003, in accordance with Portuguese GAAP. In both cases, since January 1, 2004, goodwill has not been amortized, and at the end of each reporting period, goodwill of each cash-generating unit is reviewed for impairment (i.e., a reduction in its recoverable amount to below its carrying amount) and written down if necessary. The recoverability analysis of goodwill is performed systematically at the end of each year or whenever it is considered necessary to perform such an analysis. The recoverable amount is the higher of the estimated selling price of the asset less the related selling costs and value in use. Value in use is taken to be the present value of the estimated future cash flows. In calculating the recoverable amount of goodwill, PT Multimédia used the value-in-use approach for all cases, preparing the projections of future pre-tax cash flows on the basis of the budgets most recently approved by its board of directors. These budgets include the best available estimates of the income and costs of the cash-generating units using industry projections, past experience and future expectations. These projections cover the up-coming five years, and the flows for future years are estimated by applying reasonable growth rates that in no case are increasing or exceed the growth rates of prior years.

        In light of the fact that analyzing the impairment of PT Multimédia's recorded goodwill requires a combination of various assumptions and variables, it is very difficult to analyze the sensitivity of the projections to changes in any isolated variable on its own, since a change in one variable may have an effect on one or more of the other variables used.

        Based on such an analysis, PT Multimédia recorded an impairment of the goodwill relating to its Audiovisuals unit in the amount of €28.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. No such impairment was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006, and the goodwill

59


impairment analysis conducted as of December 31, 2005 and 2006 did not suggest that any such impairment was likely in a future period.

        The determination of the recoverable amount of a cash-generating unit (under IFRS) for impairment testing purposes involves the use of estimates by management. Methods used to determine these amounts include discounted cash flow methodologies and models based on quoted stock market prices. Key assumptions on which management has based its determination of fair value include ARPU (monthly average revenue per user), subscriber acquisition and retention costs, churn rates, capital expenditures and market share. These estimates can have a material impact on fair value under IFRS and the amount of any goodwill write-down.

        As of June 30, 2007, PT Multimédia recorded deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, amounting to approximately €76.4 million. This balance consists primarily of (1) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes and (2) tax losses carried forward. The realization of deferred tax assets is reviewed by management using each entity's tax results forecast based on budgets and strategic plans. Valuation allowances are considered in respect of deferred tax assets to the extent that the recovery of the related taxes is not considered probable. If PT Multimédia's management were to conclude that certain deferred tax assets for which allowances had been made were to be realized, a previously recorded valuation allowance would be fully or partially reversed.

        Provisions are recorded when, at the end of the period, PT Multimédia has an obligation to a third party that is probable or certain to create an outflow of resources to the third party, without an at least equivalent return expected from the third party. This obligation may be legal, regulatory or contractual in nature. It may also be derived from the practice of PT Multimédia or from public commitments having created a legitimate expectation for such third parties that PT Multimédia will assume certain responsibilities.

        To estimate the expenditure that PT Multimédia is likely to bear to settle an obligation, its management takes into consideration all of the available information at the closing date for its consolidated financial statements. If no reliable estimate of the amount can be made, no provision is recorded; information is then presented in the notes to the financial statements.

        Contingencies, representing obligations which are neither probable nor certain at the time of preparing the financial statements and probable obligations for which the cash outflow is not probable, are not recorded. Information about these contingencies is presented in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

        Because of the inherent uncertainties in the foregoing evaluation process, actual losses may be different from the original estimated amount provisioned at the closing date.

        Revenues from cable and satellite television services result primarily from (1) monthly subscription fees for the use of the service, (2) amounts billed for the installation of the service and (3) rental of equipment. Revenues from monthly subscriptions and installation are recognized in the period service is rendered to the customer, and revenues from the rental of equipment are recognized during the rental period.

60


        Revenues from voice and internet access services provided through the cable network, are derived primarily from monthly subscriptions and/or the use of the Internet, depending on the option chosen by the customer. These revenue is recognized for the period in which the service is provided.

        Advertising revenues from pay TV are recognized in the period when the advertising is shown.

        Revenues from the exhibition of films result from the sale of cinema tickets, and revenues from the distribution of films result from the sale to other cinema operators of exhibition rights acquired from film producers and distributors. These revenues are recognized in the period of the exhibition of the films or in the period of the sale of the rights, as applicable.

        Revenues from sales of DVDs and terminal equipment are recognized in the period when the sale occurs.

        All other expenses and costs are recognized when incurred on an accrual basis, regardless of the time of receipt or payment.

        The allowance for doubtful accounts receivable is stated at the estimated amount necessary to cover potential risks in the collection of overdue accounts receivable balances. A determination of the amount of allowances required is made after careful analysis of the evolution of accounts receivable balances, and, in specific cases, that analysis is also based on PT Multimédia's knowledge of the financial situation of its customers. The required allowances may change in the future due to changes in economic conditions and knowledge of specific issues. Future possible changes in recorded allowances would impact PT Multimédia's results of operations in the period that such changes are recorded.

Share Buyback Program

        On May 24, 2005, PT Multimédia concluded its share buyback program by issuing European-style put warrants to its shareholders in the proportion of one warrant for each share held. Accordingly, one warrant for every PT Multimédia share held and deposited on May 4, 2005 was allocated and credited to its shareholders' accounts opened with a qualified financial intermediary. The put warrants granted the following rights to their holders: (1) for every ten put warrants, the right to sell one PT Multimédia share held, at the exercise price, if physical settlement was selected or (2) for every put warrant, to receive cash equal to one-tenth of the positive difference between the exercise price and the reference price of PT Multimédia's shares. The shareholders of PT Multimédia authorized the purchase of 5,130,453 shares, corresponding to the maximum possible physical settlements of put warrants. As a result of the physical settlement of the warrants, PT Multimédia repurchased 2,348,514 of its own ordinary shares, equal to 1.52% of its capital at the time. Other than these acquisitions, PT Multimédia did not engage in any other purchase or sale transaction involving its own shares in 2005, 2006 or during the six months ended June 30, 2007. The repurchased shares were cancelled on June 1, 2005, and the share capital was reduced to €77,274,207. PT Multimédia therefore paid €91.5 million to its shareholders through the share buyback program.

        At the annual general meeting of shareholders of PT Multimédia held on April 24, 2007, PT Multimédia's shareholders approved a share buyback program pursuant to which PT Multimédia's board of directors has the authority to purchase up to 10% of its share capital, net of any dispositions of shares acquired, for a period of up to 18 months. No shares have been purchased or are expected to be purchased prior to the spin-off effective date.

61



Share Split

        On June 1, 2005, PT Multimédia undertook a 2-for-1 share split, after which the par value of each share was changed from €0.50 to €0.25. Accordingly, capital was then represented by 309,096,828 shares, with one new share allocated to shareholders for each share held.

        Operating Revenues.    Operating revenues of PT Multimédia increased 8% to €350.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €324.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, increasing across all of PT Multimédia's businesses.

        The pay TV, broadband and telephony business accounted for 88.6% of PT Multimédia's consolidated operating revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2007. Operating revenues in this business segment increased by 6.5% to €310.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period last year, with service revenues increasing by 7.1% to €305 million. The increase in service revenues was primarily due to a 3.6% increase in pay TV subscribers and a 5.8% increase in blended ARPU in the first half of 2007.

        Revenues from the audiovisuals business increased 18.9% to €28.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €24.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 as a result of the increase in revenues from movie exhibition rights, reflecting the fact that PT Multimédia distributed six of the top ten titles to theaters in the first half of 2007 and reflecting the recovery of Video and DVD sales as a consequence of the variety and quality of titles released in the first half of 2007.

        Revenues from the cinema exhibition business increased 11.4% to €21.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €19.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006, supported mainly by an increase of 4.9% in cinema tickets sold during the first half of 2007, which resulted from a greater number of movie releases, marketing efforts and the broadening of the range of services provided to cinema customers.

        Wages and Salaries.    Wages and salaries, including social charges, decreased 7.4% to €19.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €21.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to work force reductions that were undertaken at PT Multimédia in 2006.

        Direct Costs.    Direct costs increased 5.6% to €108.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €102.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. Programming costs, which are the main component of direct costs, increased by 2.9%, mainly as a result of the increase in costs at Sport TV due to price increases and the growth in Sport TV subscribers. The increase in other direct costs was primarily due to the €2 million effect on direct costs of the 20% increase in advertising revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the same period of last year.

        Costs of Products Sold.    The costs of products sold increased 79.3% to €5.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €2.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to a €3 million write-off of obsolete equipment.

        Marketing and Publicity.    Marketing and publicity costs increased 25.0% to €10.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €8.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to the launch of voice telephony service and a promotional campaign relating to broadband Internet services.

        Support Services.    Support service costs consist primarily of outsourcing costs for information systems, call centers and logistics. Support services costs increased 17.4% to €27.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €23.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to (1) the indirect costs of investments in the capacity of call centers and back office services by the providers of those services to PT Multimédia to support an improvement in the quality of the services provided and (2) higher outsourcing costs related to the roll-out of new management and information systems during 2006.

        Supplies and External Services.    Supplies and external services costs increased 16.7% to €59.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €51.0 million in the six months ended

63



June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to higher services costs related to the increased take-up of broadband and digital pay TV services.

        Provisions and Adjustments.    Provisions and adjustments decreased 36.3% to €5.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €8.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to a lower level of hard disconnections related to bad debt receivables and the implementation at the end of 2006 of a new collection system for customers who have been disconnected due to bad debt.

        Depreciation and Amortization.    Depreciation and amortization costs increased 7.1% to €54.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €50.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This increase primarily resulted from a higher level of capital expenditure in 2006, including (1) the leasing of an additional transponder, (2) the wiring of additional houses, (3) the roll-out of set-top boxes related to PT Multimédia's digitalization programming and (4) investments in new management and information systems.

        Other Costs (Income).    Other costs amounted to €1.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to other income of €8.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. In the first half of 2006, this caption primarily included a gain of €8.0 million related to the reversal of a portion of a provision for contingencies on the disposal of Lusomundo Media recorded in 2005.

        Net Interest Expenses.    Net interest expenses increased 27.8% to €4.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €3.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This item primarily includes interest related to financial commitments under long-term telecommunications and transponder contracts. The increase is primarily due to an increase in total indebtedness.

        Net Gain in Financial Assets.    PT Multimédia recorded a net gain in financial assets of €2.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due to a gain of €2.2 million from the financial settlement of an equity swap.

        Equity in Earnings of Affiliated Companies.    Equity in earnings of affiliated companies were €1.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to a net loss of €0.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This improvement was primarily due to an increase in the results of Octal TV (from losses of €0.8 million to earnings of €0.3 million) and Lisboa TV (from earnings of €0.4 million to €0.8 million). PT Multimédia holds a 20% interest in Octal TV, the main provider of set-top boxes for TV Cabo, and a 40% interest in Lisboa TV, the owner of Portugal's leading news channel, SIC Notícias.

        Income Taxes.    Income taxes increased 4.8% to €15.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €14.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. This increase arose primarily because although PT Multimédia recorded a gain of €8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 from the reversal of a portion of the provision for contingencies upon the disposal of Lusomundo Media, as described above, only 50% that gain was taxable under Portuguese tax law, leading to a lower effective tax rate of 24.4% in the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to 26.8% in the six months ended June 30, 2007.

        Net Income.    For the reasons described above, net income decreased 7.1% to €42.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €45.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006.

        Net Income Attributable to Minority Interests.    Net income attributable to minority interests amounted to €1.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, and included primarily the earnings attributable to minority interests of Cabo TV Madeirense, S.A. and Cabo TV Açoreana, S.A.

        Operating Revenues.    Operating revenues of PT Multimédia increased 6.1% to €666.5 million in 2006 from €628.5 million in 2005. This increase was primarily due to growth in pay TV and cable Internet revenues, which increased 6.9% to €591.1 million in 2006 from €553.0 million in 2005 as a result of the continuing popularity of PT Multimédia's pay TV and cable Internet offers, price increases in pay TV and increases in broadband penetration of the pay TV customer base.

65


        Revenue from the audiovisuals business decreased 1.5% to €52.6 million in 2006 from €53.4 million in 2005 due to increased competition among movie distributors. A decrease in revenues from video and DVD sales was partially offset by an increase in revenues from exhibition and broadcasting rights.

        Revenue from the cinema business increased 9.3% to €43.7 million in 2006 from €40.0 million in 2005, primarily due to an increase of 10.7% in cinema tickets sold during the year, which resulted in part from the opening of new cinemas and also from a larger number of movie releases, marketing efforts and the broadening of the range of the services provided to customers.

        Wages and Salaries.    Wages and salaries, including social charges, decreased 9.0% to €40.0 million in 2006 from €43.9 million in 2005. This decrease was primarily due to efforts to rationalize these costs undertaken by PT Multimédia and to the transfer of employees to PT PRO, the shared services center responsible for the back office functions of Portugal Telecom (which is expected to continue to provide services to PT Multimédia after the spin-off pursuant to a contract).

        Direct Costs.    Direct costs increased 0.8% to €203.0 million in 2006 from €201.3 million in 2005, primarily due to an increase in programming costs as a result of (1) an increase in costs at Sport TV due to price increases and the growth in the number of subscribers of this channel and (2) the launch of new channels in the second and third quarters of 2005, such as the new premium cinema channel, Lusomundo Happy, and other channels in the digital package. These effects were partially offset by a three-year contract entered into by TV Cabo at the end of 2005 for the acquisition of capacity on the fixed network of Portugal Telecom's subsidiary PT Comunicações, whose cost was capitalized (and therefore not included in direct costs) and is being amortized over the period of the contract.

        Costs of Products Sold.    The costs of products sold increased 27.3% to €16.8 million in 2006 from €13.2 million in 2005. This increase was primarily due to a change in the logistics of delivery of cable modems and DTH set-top boxes that occurred in 2006 and increased PT Multimédia's costs but which we believe PT Multimédia has addressed in 2007.

        Marketing and Publicity.    Marketing and publicity costs decreased 9.8% to €18.3 million in 2006 from €20.3 million in 2005, primarily due to efforts to control marketing and publicity expenses while continuing to favorably position the trademarks TV Cabo and Netcabo, including through campaigns launched in the third and fourth quarters of 2006.

        Support Services.    Support services costs increased 34.5% to €54.2 million in 2006 from €40.3 million in 2005. This increase was primarily due to (1) investments made in call centers to support quality service improvements; (2) costs for network maintenance as a result of the increase in penetration of digital and broadband Internet services; (3) an increase of costs in information technology systems and back-office services and (4) higher outsourcing costs related to accounting and administrative services in connection with the transfer of certain employees to PT PRO, as described above.

        Supplies and External Services.    Supplies and external services costs increased 4.5% to €108.1 million in 2006 from €103.4 million in 2005. This increase was primarily due to an increase in commissions as a result of an increase in commercial activity in the third and fourth quarters of 2006. The remaining components of this cost item generally decreased, reflecting continuing efforts to control costs.

        Provisions and Adjustments.    Provisions and adjustments increased 37.4% to €13.6 million in 2006 from €9.9 million in 2005, primarily due to an increase in the provision for doubtful receivables in the pay TV and broadband Internet businesses due to growth in revenues and a corresponding increase in accounts receivable from customers.

66



        Depreciation and Amortization.    Depreciation and amortization costs increased to €102.5 million in 2006 from €61.9 million in 2005. This increase was primarily due to an increase in capital expenditures in 2005 and in the first half of 2006 as a result of (1) a contract for rights to use three additional transponders on the Hispasat satellite, (2) a long-term telecommunications contract regarding usage of transmission capacity, (3) wiring of additional houses, (4) acquisition of set-top boxes in connection with PT Multimédia's digitalization program and (5) new information technology systems.

        Other Income.    Other income was €2.8 million in 2006, compared to €1.7 million in 2005. In 2006, other income primarily included (1) a gain of €8 million from the reversal of a portion of the provision for contingencies upon the disposal of Lusomundo Media due to the settlement with the acquirer of the indemnities reflected in the sale and purchase agreement and (2) an impairment charge of €6 million recorded at the time of a change in the estimated useful life of certain tangible assets.

        Net Interest Expenses.    Net interest expenses increased by 37.7% to €8.4 million in 2006 from €6.1 million in 2005. This caption primarily includes interest payments under contracts for telecommunications capacity usage rights and the financial cost of contracts for the use of transponders, and the increase is primarily due to the interest expense associated with the new contract entered into by TV Cabo at the end of 2005 for the acquisition of capacity on the fixed network of PT Comunicações.

        Equity in Earnings of Affiliated Companies.    Equity in earnings of affiliated companies decreased to €0.4 million in 2006 from €3.5 million in 2005, primarily due to (1) an increase in losses of Octal TV (from €0.1 million to €1.0 million), (2) a reduction in earnings of Lisboa TV (from €1.6 million to €1.3 million) and (3) the effect in 2005 of a gain of €2.3 million recorded in 2005 upon the disposal of Warner Lusomundo Sogecable Cines de España, S.A., a joint venture with Warner Bros. and Sogecable for cinema exhibition in Spain.

        Income Taxes.    Income taxes decreased by 17.3% to €29.1 million in 2006 from €35.2 million in 2005. This decrease was primarily due to the reduction in income before taxes, partially offset by a cost of €8.0 million due to an adjustment to the value of deferred tax assets due to a reduction in the nominal corporate tax rate from 27.5% to 26.5% beginning in January 2007. In addition, PT Multimédia recorded a gain of €3.0 million as a result of the recognition of tax losses from previous periods by Sport TV.

        Net Income from Discontinued Operations.    Discontinued operations reflect the results of companies that have been disposed of during the reportable periods and the after-tax gains obtained with the sale of these investments. Having announced the disposal of Lusomundo Media in February 2005, PT Multimédia reported this business as a discontinued operation in the consolidated income statement for the year 2005 in accordance with IFRS. As a result, the earnings of this company were included in this caption until the effective date of the disposal, which occurred on August 25, 2005.

        Net Income.    Net income decreased 34.4% to €74.1 million in 2006 from €113.0 million in 2005. In 2005, net income included a gain of €18.0 million related to the sale of Lusomundo Media. In 2006, net income was negatively affected by (1) costs amounting to €4.0 million (net of tax) related to the impairment of certain tangible assets, as described in "—Other Income" above, and (2) the reduction in the nominal corporate tax rate, which reduced PT Multimédia's deferred tax assets by €8.0 million, as described in "—Income Taxes" above.

        Net Income Attributable to Minority Interests.    Net income attributable to minority interests amounted to €3.0 million in 2006, compared to €1.4 million in 2005, primarily due to earnings attributable to the minority interests in Cabo TV Madeirense, S.A. and Cabo TV Açoreana, S.A.

        Operating Revenues.    Operating revenues of PT Multimédia increased 5.0% to €628.5 million in 2005 from €598.8 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to growth in pay TV and cable Internet revenues, which increased 7.7% to €553.0 million in 2005 from 513.3 million in 2004 as a result of the continuing popularity of PT Multimédia's pay TV and cable Internet offers, price increases in pay TV and a steady increase in broadband penetration of the pay TV customer base. Income from advertising sales also contributed positively to this increase, reaching €21.5 million in 2005.

68



        Revenues from the audiovisuals business decreased 0.6% to €53.4 million in 2005 from €53.7 million in 2004 primarily due to the termination of the distribution agreement for Playstation consoles and related games and the termination in April 2004 of the distribution agreement for videos of Columbia, the Sony group movie producer.

        Revenues in the cinema business decreased 4.3% to €40.0 million in 2005 from €41.8 million in 2004 affected by (1) the alignment of the Warner Lusomundo's fiscal year with that of PT Multimédia after Warner Lusomundo merged with Lusomundo Cinemas in 2004, leading to another month of operations being incorporated in 2004 and (2) lower attendance rates in the cinema exhibition business stemming from the continuing effects of growth in the DVD market, fewer hit movies screened during the first nine months of 2005 and increased competition among movie distributors.

        Wages and Salaries.    Wages and salaries, including social charges, increased 0.5% to €43.9 million in 2005 from €43.7 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to the addition of 86 employees to our audiovisuals business as a result of opening new screening rooms throughout the year and an increase in social charges, partially offset by a decrease in variable compensation of other employees. The total number of employees reached 1,388 thousand at year-end.

        Direct Costs.    Direct costs increased 8.9% to €201.3 million in 2005 from €185.0 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to the costs of cable television programming. These programming costs increased 9.0% to €138.3 million in 2005 from €126.9 million in 2004, primarily as a result of the launch of new channels in the second and third quarters of 2005, in particular the new Premium movie channel, Lusomundo Happy, along with other channels included in TV Cabo's digital "Funtastic Life" service. Moreover, the costs of leasing the fiber optics network from PT Comunicações increased 23.1% in 2005, primarily due to network expansion, increased network capacity for supporting higher download levels and digital TV service and an increase in bi-directional coverage.

        Costs of Products Sold.    The costs of products sold decreased 27.7% to €13.2 million in 2005 from €18.3 million in 2004. This decrease was primarily due to the reduced sales of video and videogames by our audiovisuals business as a result of the termination in 2004 of the distribution agreement for Columbia videos and for Sony Playstation consoles and games.

        Marketing and Publicity.    Marketing and publicity costs decreased 16.0% to €20.3 million in 2005 from €24.2 million in 2004. This decrease was primarily due to a greater rationalization of the costs of publicity and promotional campaigns.

        Support Services.    Support services costs increased 5.6% to €40.3 million in 2005 from €38.2 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to higher costs of customer care to support the launch of the new "Funtastic Life" digital service, the digitalization of the premium pay TV service and the migration to new information systems. In addition, there was an increase in outsourcing costs relating to information systems involved in the roll-out of newly implemented systems.

        Supplies and External Services.    Supplies and external services costs increased 2.6% to €103.4 million in 2005 from €100.8 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to an increase in maintenance and repair costs. Pay TV customer growth, the digitalization of premium pay TV services and the expansion of broadband services, together with the upgrade of downstream speeds, led to an increased need for network maintenance and repair in order to guarantee a high quality of service.

        Provisions and Adjustments.    Provisions and adjustments increased to €9.9 million in 2005 from €5.7 million in 2004, primarily due to an increase in the provision for doubtful receivables in the pay TV and broadband Internet businesses due to growth in revenues and a corresponding increase in accounts receivable from customers.

69



        Indirect Taxes.    Indirect taxes decreased to €0.8 million in 2005, compared to €4.3 million in 2004. This decrease was primarily due to the reversal of an accrual for the Investment Fund for Cinema and Audiovisuals, which was recorded in 2004. PT Multimédia had agreed with the Portuguese State that its contribution to the Investment Fund for Cinema and Audiovisuals should equal the Portuguese State's contribution. Since the Portuguese State did not make any contribution, the company was not required to make its own contribution and, as a result, the related accrual was cancelled. The Investment Fund for Cinema and Audiovisuals is described in "Risk Factors—Risks Related to PT Multimédia—The recently created audiovisual contribution could affect PT Multimédia's financial position."

        Depreciation and Amortization.    Depreciation and amortization costs increased 20.4% to €61.9 million in 2005 from €51.4 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to investments for acquiring capacity usage rights for two additional transponders.

        Impairment Losses.    In 2004, PT Multimédia recorded an impairment loss in the goodwill of its audiovisuals business amounting to €28.0 million. This impairment was computed based on the difference between the book value at that date and the discounted cash flow of the business, based on management estimates.

        Other Costs (Income).    Other income amounted to €1.7 million in 2005, compared to other costs of €51.0 million in 2004. In 2004, this caption primarily included (1) a provision of €26.0 million recorded in the pay TV business related to the dismantling of the analog network and (2) a provision of €12.0 million for tax contingencies at PT Multimédia.

        Net Interest Expenses.    Net interest expenses increased 79.4% to €6.1 million in 2005 from €3.4 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to the financial costs of new contracts for the use of transponders.

        Net Other Financial Income.    Net other financial income increased to €2.5 million in 2005 from €1.0 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to the recognition of a financial gain of €3.5 million relating to the share buyback program, which corresponds to the difference in the average PT Multimédia share price between the warrant issue date and the date on which the reference price was set (the exercise date). This item also includes miscellaneous financial expenses, such as bank commissions and the related fees.

        Equity in Earnings of Affiliated Companies.    Equity in earnings of affiliated companies increased to €3.5 million in 2005 from €0.7 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to gains of Warner Lusomundo Sogecable and Lisboa TV, which contributed €2.3 million and €1.6 million, respectively.

        Income Taxes.    Income taxes totaled €35.2 million in 2005, compared to net tax benefits of €75.5 million in 2004. In 2004, this caption included the recognition of net deferred tax assets amounting to €109 million related to tax losses generated in previous years, as the conditions for the future recovery of those deferred tax assets were not met until 2004. Excluding this effect, income taxes would generally have remained stable.

        Net Income from Continued Operations.    For the reasons described above, net income from continued operations decreased 19.6% to €99.0 million in 2005 from €123.1 million in 2004.

        Net Income from Discontinued Operations.    Net income from discontinued operations increased to €14.1 million in 2005 from €2.5 million in 2004. Following the announced disposal of Lusomundo Serviços in 2005, this business was reported as a discontinued operation for the years 2004 and 2005 until the completion of the disposal in August 2005, in accordance with IFRS. The increase in this caption is primarily related to the recognition of a gain amounting to €17.8 million from the sale of

70



Lusomundo Serviços. In 2004, discontinued operations included the earnings of Lusomundo Serviços for the full year.

        Net Income Attributable to Minority Interests.    Net income attributable to minority interests decreased to €1.4 million in 2005 from €2.8 million in 2004 and related primarily to the interests of minority shareholders in the net income of Lusomundo Media.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The principal capital requirements of PT Multimédia relate to:

        The principal sources of funding for these capital requirements are cash generated from operations and debt financing. Cash and cash equivalents of PT Multimédia decreased 5.4% to €36.7 million as of June 30, 2007 from €38.8 million as of December 31, 2006, with cash flows used in financing activities (€82 million) and investing activities (€46 million) being partially offset by cash flows obtained from operating activities (€126 million).

        Cash and cash equivalents decreased to €38.8 million as of December 31, 2006 from €76.7 million as of December 31, 2005, with cash flows used in financing activities (€109 million) and investing activities (€122 million) more than offsetting cash flows obtained from operating activities (€194 million).

        Cash and cash equivalents increased to €76.7 million as of December 31, 2005 from €28.3 million as of December 31, 2004, primarily due to cash flows obtained from operating activities (€219 million) and investing (€93 million) activities, which were partially offset by the cash flows used in financing activities (€261 million).

        We believe that PT Multimédia's cash balances, together with the cash that it expects to generate from its operations and the liquidity available under credit facilities that are expected to be in place prior to the effective date of the spin-off, will be sufficient to meet its present funding needs. See "—Indebtedness" below for a description of the credit facilities expected to be in place at the time of the spin-off.

        The table below sets forth a breakdown of PT Multimédia's cash flows from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006 and for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007.

        Cash Flow from Operating Activities.    Cash flows from operating activities and used in operating activities include collections from clients, payments to suppliers, payments to personnel, payment of income taxes and other collections and payments relating to operating activities. Cash flows from operating activities of PT Multimédia result primarily from operations conducted by its subsidiaries and not by PT Multimédia itself. None of its subsidiaries is subject to economic or legal restrictions on transferring funds to PT Multimédia in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances that would materially affect its ability to meet its cash obligations.

        Net cash flow from operating activities increased 19.2% to €126.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €106.1 million in the same period of 2006. This increase was primarily due to a €50.0 million increase in collections from customers, partially offset by a €31.1 million increase in payments to suppliers.

        Net cash flow from operating activities decreased 11.2% to €194.1 million in 2006 from €218.7 million in 2005. This decrease was primarily due to a €21.3 million increase in payments to suppliers and a €11.8 increase in other payments relating to operating activities, partially offset in by a decrease in payments to employees and income tax payments.

        Net cash flow from operating activities increased 50.3% to €218.7 million in 2005 from €145.5 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to a €39.7 million increase in collections from customers and a €31.7 million decrease in other payments relating to operating activities.

        Cash Flow from (Used in) Investing Activities.    Cash flows used in investing activities primarily include financial investments and capital expenditures for telecommunications equipment and satellite and telecommunications capacity. Cash flows from investing activities include dispositions of investments in associated companies and property, plant and equipment and dividends, interest and related income in investments.

        Net cash used in investing activities decreased to €46.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to net cash used in investing activities of €72.5 million in the same period of 2006. This decrease was primarily due to higher capital expenditures on tangible and intangible assets in the six months ended June 30, 2006.

        Net cash used in investing activities was €122.4 million in 2006, compared to net cash receipts from investing activities of €92.7 million in 2005. This decrease was primarily due to the effect on 2005 cash flows of the sale of Lusomundo Serviços, which held PT Multimédia's interest in Lusomundo Media in 2005 (€173.8 million) and repayments by Portugal Telecom of loans granted to it by PT Multimédia in the amount of €77 million, partially offset by new loans granted to Portugal Telecom in the amount of €45 million.

        Net cash receipts from investing activities increased to €92.7 million in 2005, compared to net cash use in investing activities of €129.3 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to an increase of €208.9 million in dispositions of financial investments to €252.7 million in 2005 from €43.8 in 2004, primarily due to the cash proceeds of €173.8 million from the sale of Lusomundo Serviços in 2005, which held PT Multimédia's interest in Lusomundo Media.

        Cash Flows Used In Financing Activities.    Cash flows used in financing activities include borrowings and repayments of debt, payments of dividends to shareholders and acquisitions of own shares.

        Net cash used in financing activities increased to €82.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from €67.6 million in the same period of 2006. This increase was primarily due to an €8.0 million increase in dividend payments and a €5.9 million increase in cash payments to repay loans, net of cash flows from loans obtained.

        Net cash used in financing activities decreased to €109.6 million in 2006 from €261.0 million in 2005. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in cash payments to repay loans, net of cash flows

72



from loans obtained, in the amount of €107.0 million and a decrease in payments related to share buybacks and settlement of warrants in the amount of €94.9 million, partially offset by an increase of €35.2 million in payments related to lease contracts.

        Net cash used in financing activities increased to €261.0 million in 2005 from €19.6 million in 2004. This increase was primarily due to a €137.2 million increase in payments on loans (primarily attributable to payments on loans received from Portugal Telecom), share buybacks and settlement of warrants in the amount of €94.9 million and a €65.7 million increase in dividend payments. This increase more than offset a €55.4 million increase in loans obtained, primarily attributable to intercompany loans from Portugal Telecom.

        See "—Equity" below for more information on PT Multimédia's share buybacks.

        PT Multimédia's total consolidated indebtedness increased 4.2% to €276.7 million as of June 30, 2007 from €265.6 million as of December 31, 2006, primarily due to a €45.1 million increase in loans from Portugal Telecom, partially offset by a €18 million decrease in rental contracts for telecommunications capacity and a €9.0 million decrease in obligations relating to the settlement of equity swaps.

        PT Multimédia's total consolidated indebtedness increased 7.4% to €265.6 million as of December 31, 2006 from €247.3 million as of December 31, 2005, primarily due to a €47.5 million increase in short-term debt, which was partially offset by a decrease of €17.1 million in medium and long-term bank loans.

        PT Multimédia's total consolidated indebtedness decreased 5.7% to €247.3 million as of December 31, 2005 from €262.3 million as of December 31, 2004, primarily due to the repayment of a loan from Portugal Telecom in the amount of €67.3 million and a €21.6 million reduction in short-term bank loans, which more than offset a €62.0 million increase in debt under contracts for the acquisition of telecommunications capacity.

        The composition of the indebtedness of PT Multimédia also changed as of June 30, 2007, with medium and long-term loans decreasing from 65.5% of total indebtedness as of December 31, 2006 to 53.9% as of June 30, 2007, primarily because of decreases in medium- and long -term bank loans and in contracts for telecommunications capacity.

        Maturity.    Of the total indebtedness outstanding as of June 30, 2007, €127.7 million is due before June 30, 2008. The remaining €149.1 million is medium- and long-term debt. The average maturity of PT Multimédia's debt is 3.7 years.

        Interest Rates.    As at June 30, 2007, all of PT Multimédia's indebtedness was at floating rates.

        Debt Instruments.    Set forth below is a brief description of certain debt instruments of PT Multimédia.

74


        PT Multimédia is currently negotiating credit facilities with several financial institutions in an aggregate amount of between €150 and €200 million to provide liquidity for ongoing working capital needs and to repay outstanding debt to Portugal Telecom. PT Multimédia expects these facilities to be in place before the effective date of the spin-off.

        As of June 30, 2007, the total equity of PT Multimédia amounted to €379.6 million. The decrease in equity since December 31, 2006 is primarily due to the payment of dividends amounting to €92.7 million and to the cash settlement of equity swaps for ordinary shares of PT Multimédia (treated as an acquisition of own shares) in the amount of €9.0 million, partially offset by the effect of net income for the period in the amount of €42.0 million.

        As of December 31, 2006, the total equity of PT Multimédia amounted to €424.1 million, compared to €438.7 million as of December 31, 2005 and €509.3 million as of December 31, 2004. The decrease in total equity in 2006 primarily reflects the payment of dividends in the amount of €85.0 million and the effect of net income for the period in the amount of €74.1 million. The decrease in total equity in 2005 primarily reflects the distribution of put warrants to shareholders (which allowed shareholders to put ordinary shares to PT Multimédia), which directly reduced shareholders' equity in the amount of €94.9 million, the acquisition of own shares in the amount of €8.5 million and the payment of dividends in the amount of €77.3 million, partially offset by the effect of net income for the period in the amount of €113.0 million.

        The total equity of PT Multimédia as a percentage of total assets decreased to 40.8% as of June 30, 2007 from 43.5% as of December 31, 2006, 43.8% as of December 31, 2005 and 45.5% as of December 31, 2004.

Explanatory Note Regarding Presentation of the Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statements for 2005

(1)
Interest on indebtedness is based on assumptions regarding interest rates on our floating rate debt. Our actual interest could vary significantly from these amounts depending on market interest rates.

        PT Multimédia's operating leases are contractual rental agreements entered into in the ordinary course of PT Multimédia's business, including leases on the properties described in "Information About PT Multimédia—Properties" and leases on cinema exhibition rooms by Lusomundo Cinema. PT Multimédia intends to fulfill its commitments under these agreements from operating cash flow.

        PT Multimédia's unconditional purchase obligations generally relate to (1) 50% of the broadcasting rights commitments assumed by Sport TV in the amount of €44.1 million as of June 30, 2007 and (2) agreements to acquire fixed assets, including network assets and terminal equipment in the amount of €14.5 million as of June 30, 2007.

        In addition, TV Cabo has entered into Qualified Technological Equipment transactions ("QTE"), whereby it has sold certain tangible telecommunications assets to foreign entities. Simultaneously, those foreign entities entered into leasing contracts on the equipment with special purpose entities, which entered into conditional sale agreements with TV Cabo with respect to that equipment. TV Cabo maintained the legal possession of this equipment. The transactions are recorded as sale and leaseback transactions, and the equipment continues to be recorded as assets of TV Cabo. Because TV Cabo obtained the economic benefits of the transactions, a non-current asset was recorded in the amount of the sale of the equipment, and a non-current liability in the same amount was recorded in the amount of the future payments under the leasing contract. These amounts are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet (€18.1 million as of June 30, 2007). Amounts received by TV Cabo under these transactions are recognized in net income on a straight-line basis over the period of the contracts. See notes 3(h)(ix), 25 and 35 to the audited consolidated financial statements of PT Multimédia for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006 for more information about these transactions.

        In connection with the transactions described in the preceding paragraph, PT Multimédia has provided a guarantee corresponding to a bank deposit in the amount of €18.1 million that is equivalent to the net present value of the future lease payments under the contracts as of June 30, 2007. PT Multimédia estimates that the risk of the guarantee being called upon is negligible.

        In the ordinary course of its business PT Multimédia provides guarantees to third parties to ensure performance of contractual obligations by PT Multimédia or its subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2007, PT Multimédia had given the following guarantees and comfort letters to third parties:

        As of June 30, 2007, bank guarantees given to suppliers included €5 million in guarantees granted to lessors of movie theatres located in shopping centers in connection with the cinema exhibition business and €1 million in guarantees granted to international satellite operators in connection with the pay TV, broadband Internet and voice telephony businesses.

        As of June 30, 2007, bank guarantees given to the tax authorities related to tax proceedings contested by PT Multimédia. See "Information About PT Multimédia—Legal Proceedings."

        PT Multimédia, together with Sportinveste, SGPS, S.A. (the parent of the other shareholder of Sport TV), have granted a joint and several guarantee of Sport TV's obligations under a loan for the acquisition of the broadcasting rights for the football matches of the Portuguese soccer league (the Superliga de Futebol) for the seasons 2004-2005 to 2007-2008. As of June 30, 2007, the outstanding amount due by Sport TV under this loan was €49 million, of which 50% was proportionally consolidated by PT Multimédia as indebtedness, while the remaining 50% was included in the table above as a financial commitment.

        See Note 37 to the audited consolidated financial statements for more information on the guarantees given by PT Multimédia.

        PT Multimédia's capital expenditures were €40.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 and €132.8 million in 2006, compared to €185.5 million in 2005 and €73.2 million in 2004. In the six months ended June 30, 2007, capital expenditures were directed towards (1) the launch of voice services, (2) an increase in homes passed by PT Multimédia's network and (3) network upgrades to provide greater customer bandwidth and to improve the quality of service.

        The decrease in PT Multimédia's capital expenditures from 2005 to 2006 was primarily due to a long-term contract entered into by TV Cabo in 2005 with PT Comunicações allowing PT Multimédia the use of network capacity in the amount of €65.7 million. Expenditures on terminal equipment and Pay TV infrastructure increased in 2006 due to the launch of VoIP telephone service, the wiring of additional houses and the acquisition of additional rights to use transmittal capacity supporting a fiber to the hub architecture.

        The increase in PT Multimédia's capital expenditures from 2004 to 2005 was primarily due to (1) the capitalized cost of future payments under the €65.7 million contract with PT Comunicações described in the preceding paragraph, (2) the capitalized cost of the rights to use a fifth and sixth satellite transponder until the end of their useful life, estimated to be December 2016 (€33.4 million), (3) the acquisition of set-top boxes relating to the digitalization program (€18.8 million) and (4) investments in network capacity to improve pay TV and broadband Internet services (€8.0 million).

        In the area of audiovisuals, capital expenditures decreased 61.1% to €1.4 million in 2005 from €3.6 million in 2004, primarily due to a reduction in the opening of new cinema screening rooms and investments to maintain and remodel existing screening rooms.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

        PT Multimédia is exposed to market risks primarily related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. These risks relate mainly to transactions entered into with foreign audiovisual content providers and film distributors (as described in "Information About PT Multimédia—Business—Cinema Distribution and Exhibition and Entertainment—Lusomundo Audiovisuais"), which are generally denominated in U.S. dollars. As of June 30, 2007, the outstanding amount of our U.S.-dollar denominated accounts payable was US$4.3 million. A hypothetical change of 1% in the U.S. dollar-Euro exchange rate would have increased PT Multimédia's accounts payable by approximately €31,800 as of June 30, 2007. PT Multimédia's hedging policies include entering into exchange rate forward agreements contracts from time to time when management believes it necessary.

        PT Multimédia is also subject to the risk of interest rate risk to the extent that all of its outstanding indebtedness as of June 30, 2007 bore interest at floating rates, primarily Euribor rates. See "—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Indebtedness." A hypothetical increase in the Euribor rate of 100 basis points would have increased PT Multimédia's annual cash interest expense by approximately €1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. PT Multimédia has not historically entered into derivative instruments to hedge its interest rate risk.

We have appealed this fine. We have decided not to record a provision for this contingency, as we believe the outcome will be ultimately favorable for us, based on the opinion of our legal counsel.

Total traffic   6,884   6,364  
Retail traffic   2,872   2,659  
Wholesale traffic   4,012   3,705  

        Broadband.    Despite increased competition in broadband from both fixed and mobile competitors, ADSL accesses grew in the first half of 2007. Retail ADSL accesses increased to 715,000 as of June 30, 2007, with a summer campaign launched in June having a positive effect, and net additions totaled 30,000 as of June 30, 2007. We continued to focus on promoting customer retention through the migration to higher speeds using ADSL 2+. As of June 30, 2007, net disconnections of our traffic-generating lines reached 76,000. Net additions of unbundled local loop ("ULL") accesses decreased by 34.2% to 48,000 as of June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006, with total ULL accesses reaching 244,000. In terms of voice lines of competitors using our network, the net effect of the migration of carrier pre-selection lines to wholesale line rentals resulted in a net reduction of 64,000 competitor voice-only lines as of June 30, 2007.

        Pricing Plans.    As of June 30, 2007, we were allowed to bundle unlimited fixed-to-fixed off-peak minutes during the week with our line rental charges. Currently, 51% of our residential customers have a flat-rate pricing plan.

80



        IPTV.    As of June 30, 2007, we announced the launch of IPTV services. Our triple-play offer, branded "meo", includes 42 pay TV channels, broadband Internet access of up to 8MB and unlimited fixed-to-fixed calls for a total of €54.90 per month. In addition, customers can buy premium channels, such as Sport TV (premium sports) and the Lusomundo movie channels. The service is provided using ADSL 2+ and is available for up to two televisions per home. The service is being initially rolled out in Lisbon and Porto.

        ARPU.    Blended Average Revenue Per User ("ARPU") increased by 0.7% to €30.2 in the first half of 2007, driven by the growth in data ARPU, which increased by 18.5%. The increased penetration of ADSL and the growth in IP-based services, including corporate VoIP, more than offset the negative impact resulting from the fact that discounts to retired persons are no longer covered by the Portuguese State.

        Traffic.    Retail traffic fell by 7.4% in the first half of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 as a result of line loss. Retail minutes of use increased by 0.3% to 160 minutes in the first half of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006, reflecting the positive impact of the rollout of flat-rate pricing plans. The reduction in wholesale traffic of 7.7% in the first half of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 is explained primarily by the 58.6% decrease in dial-up Internet traffic, as a result of the continued migration to broadband.

        The following table shows certain key operating data for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007:

  Roaming   0.5   0.4
Data as a percentage of service revenues (%)   12.6   14.1
Employees   1,165   1,126

        Customers.    Customer net additions increased to 110,000 as of June 30, 2007. As a result, total customers increased by 8.4% to 5.8 million in the first half of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. During the first half of 2007, TMN continued to focus on postpaid service, particularly in the corporate segment and on encouraging customers to migrate to postpaid service. As of June 30, 2007, 21% of total customers were postpaid customers.

        TMN Brand.    Several initiatives were implemented during the first half of 2007 in areas such as handset portfolio differentiation, mobile broadband, roaming pricing plans and repositioning of the TMN brand to focus on the corporate and youth segments.

        Handset Portfolio.    TMN launched the offer of 28 new exclusive handsets in the first half of 2007, bringing the total number of exclusive handsets on offer to 38. For the summer campaign of 2007, TMN launched 25 new handsets, of which 8 were exclusive.

        Broadband.    In the first half of 2007, TMN launched promotional pricing campaigns for data cards with speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps (HSDPA), as well as special offers aimed at increasing the penetration

81



of wireless Internet access through personal computers. In addition, TMN's new mobile Internet service, "internetnotelemóvel," offers a flat rate for unlimited usage of the Internet and e-mail access on mobile handsets.

        Roaming.    TMN launched special campaigns focused around key dates such as Easter and Carnaval in the first half of 2007. In addition, TMN launched new roaming pricing packages targeting customers with high roaming usage patterns.

        Corporate Segment.    In the first half of 2007, TMN launched a new voice and data offer targeting the SME/SoHo segment, "Office Box PME," which includes mobile and fixed voice services, broadband Internet and e-mail services.

        Youth Segment.    TMN launched a set of pricing plans, called "kitados," that allow customers to make unlimited on-net calls after the first minute at night ("kit noite") or on weekends ("kit fim-de-semana") or to a selected number ("kit par"). In addition, TMN sponsored several youth-related events, including the main surfing championships in Portugal, contests for new bands (garage sessions) and a successful summer music festival. TMN also launched the new single of Da Weasel on Music Box, a service that allows customers to search and download up to 600,000 songs.

        ARPU.    The decline in interconnection ARPU of 11.0% in the first half of 2007 resulted primarily from the reduction in mobile termination rates that occurred throughout 2006, while the 4.9% decrease in customer ARPU is explained primarily by the increasing penetration in lower-consumption segments of the market. However, growth in the average number of customers and increased penetration of data services more than offset the decrease in customer ARPU. Roaming ARPU decreased by 15.7% in the first half of 2007, reflecting the adjustments TMN has been making to its roaming tariffs, ahead of EU-imposed changes at the wholesale level. Blended MOU decreased slightly by 0.6% to 118 minutes in the first half of 2007, although the customer base grew by 8.4%.

        Data Services.    Data revenues accounted for 14.1% of service revenues in the first half of 2007, up from 12.6% in the same period of last year. The increase in data service revenues was primarily due to non-SMS data revenues, which increased by 55.0% in the first half of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 and accounted for 30.7% of total data revenues in the first half of 2007. This increase was driven by growth in mobile Internet and wireless broadband. The number of SMS messages in the first half of 2007 reached approximately 168 messages per month per active SMS user, reflecting the successful launch of a number of pricing plans targeting the youth segment. The number of active SMS users reached 45% of total customers as of June 30, 2007.

        Information Society.    As part of TMN's commitment to the development of the information society, under the terms of its UMTS licence, TMN will coinvest with the Portuguese government in the provision of laptop computers with wireless broadband connectivity, at a discount, to schools, teachers, students and other individuals. These initiatives will be undertaken through 2015, with the total investment amounting up to €260 million. TMN expects these initiatives to increase computer and broadband penetration in Portugal, strengthening TMN's positioning in this key segment of the market.

Certain of the operating data for the pay TV and broadband Internet businesses in 2004 in the column below are estimates based on the best available information. In 2005, TV Cabo replaced its customer relationship management, billing and provisioning systems. In the migration to the new systems, not all customer accounts were transferred correctly. During 2005, TV Cabo adjusted is database as necessary to correct these errors and did not consider revenues from certain subscribers that were incorrectly shown to have past due receivables. Also, inactive customers were removed from the reported database.

(2)
In the second quarter of 2007, TV Cabo undertook an internal audit of its databases, reducing the number of recorded homes passed by 230 thousand homes passed. No further material corrections are anticipated. Considering the impact of this database clean-up, the number of homes passed would have been approximately 2,651 thousand at the end of 2006.

Includes products subject to temporary promotions, such as the recent "Try and Buy" promotion, hook-ups to local networks and agreements with property developers that are not yet in force.

        Pay TV and broadband Internet services generated an ARPU of €30.6 in the six months ended June 30, 2007, a 5.8% increase over the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily due to the increased penetration of digital TV and growth in broadband Internet services, as well as due to the strong demand for telephony services.

        In 2006, pay TV and broadband Internet services generated an ARPU of €29.1, a 5.7% increase over 2005. This growth is indicative of the greater penetration of broadband Internet services

87



throughout the customer base and demand for additional TV services, such as the "Funtastic Life" package described below, which in 2006 accounted for 18% of the total customer base.

Strategy

        PT Multimédia's goal is to continue to lead the multimedia industry in Portugal, striving to foster the growth potential of its customer base and its range of services, exploring opportunities to gain additional penetration by introducing new content, developing its triple-play offer and improving the quality of the service it provides. The competitive environment in which PT Multimédia operates will continue to require a constant focus on operating efficiency, as well as the exploitation of synergies resulting from the integration and consolidation within its business areas, in particular through cost-cutting and the generation of additional revenues. The specific key strategies of PT Multimédia are:


History

        Portugal Telecom formed PT Multimédia on July 15, 1999 and transferred to the new company certain of its cable and satellite pay TV activities, as well as its Internet-related activities focused on residential customers and the small office, home office and small and medium-sized enterprise markets, including:

        Since its initial public offering in November 1999, PT Multimédia's ordinary shares have been traded publicly in Portugal. In 2002 and 2003, Portugal Telecom acquired 2.43% and 1.08%, respectively, of PT Multimédia in the open market. As of June 30, 2006, and following the capital reduction after the share buyback program completed in May 2005, Portugal Telecom held 58.43% of PT Multimédia.

        CATVP—TV Cabo Portugal, S.A., or "TV Cabo," is PT Multimédia's cable and satellite television and broadband Internet services subsidiary in continental Portugal. Through its subsidiaries Cabo TV Acoreana, S.A. and Cabo TV Madeirense, S.A., it offers its services in the Madeira and Azores islands. After restrictions on cable operators engaging in the programming business were lifted in 1997, TV Cabo formed two joint ventures to develop programming channels in Portugal (Sport TV and Premium TV) and to launch a cable news channel named SIC Notícias. In March 2000, PT Multimédia

88



created PT Conteúdos—Actividade de Televisão e de Produção de Conteúdos, S.A., or "PT Conteúdos," and PT Multimédia's interests in these ventures were contributed to PT Conteúdos.

        PT Multimédia also created PTM.com in March 2000 to hold its Internet-related assets.

        In April 2000, PT Multimédia acquired 42.0% of Lusomundo, a leading media and entertainment company in Portugal, through a tender offer on the Euronext Lisbon Stock Exchange. On March 26, 2001, PT Multimédia acquired 57.9% of Lusomundo, after approval from the Portuguese competition authorities in January 2001, thereby increasing its ownership interest in Lusomundo to 99.9% of Lusomundo's share capital.

        In October 2002, Portugal Telecom entered into an agreement with PT Multimédia to acquire its 100% interest in PTM.com, its 24.75% interest in Páginas Amarelas and its 50% interest in Sportinveste Multimédia. These acquisitions took effect in September 2002 and were completed at an aggregate acquisition price of €199 million. In addition, Portugal Telecom also acquired €401 million in shareholder loans that PT Multimédia had extended to PTM.com and Sportinveste Multimédia. This transaction reduced the net debt of PT Multimédia by €600 million to €139 million.

        Until June 2003, PT Conteúdos owned 54% of Premium TV, a partnership with Globo and SIC that produced premium cable television programming. In June 2003, PT Conteúdos acquired the remaining 46% of Premium TV from Globo and SIC. In December 2004, Premium TV was merged into PT Conteúdos and ceased to exist as a separate company as from January 1, 2005.

        On February 28, 2005, PT Multimédia announced the disposal of its 100% interest in Lusomundo Serviços, SGPS, S.A., including an 80.91% interest in Lusomundo Media, through the execution of a promissory sale and purchase agreement with Controlinveste, SGPS, S.A. Through these companies, PT Multimédia previously ran a newspaper publishing and distribution business and a radio programming business. The sale was completed on August 25, 2005 after approval by the Portuguese Media Authority (Alta Autoridade para a Comunicação Social) and the Competition Authority. The proceeds for PT Multimédia from the sale were €173.8 million, of which €10.1 million was paid to Portugal Telecom for its 5.94% interest in Lusomundo Media. With the sale of Lusomundo Media, PT Multimédia exited the newspaper and magazine publishing, as well as distribution and radio programming businesses.

        On June 1, 2005, PT Multimédia's shareholders approved the cancellation of 2,348,514 ordinary shares owned by PT Multimédia in connection with the issuance of European-style put warrants by PT Multimédia and a change in the nominal value of PT Multimédia's ordinary shares from €0.50 per share to €0.25 per share.

        On July 14, 2005, PT Multimédia sold its 33.33% share in Warner Lusomundo Sogecable Cines de España, S.A., a joint venture with Warner Bros. and Sogecable for cinema exhibition in Spain, following approval by the Spanish antitrust authorities.

        On February 6, 2006, Sonae, SGPS, S.A. and Sonaecom—SGPS, S.A., or collectively "Sonaecom," preliminarily announced an unsolicited tender offer for all the outstanding ordinary shares (including ordinary shares represented by American Depositary Shares) and convertible bonds of Portugal Telecom. Immediately after its preliminary announcement of the tender offer for Portugal Telecom ordinary shares and convertible bonds of Portugal Telecom, Sonae, SGPS, S.A., Sonaecom and their affiliates preliminarily announced a tender offer for all the outstanding ordinary shares of PT Multimédia. The PT Multimédia tender offer was conditioned upon, among other things, the successful purchase by Sonaecom of more than 50% of the ordinary shares of Portugal Telecom in the Portugal Telecom tender offer. The Portugal Telecom tender offer, in turn, was subject to a number of conditions, including the removal of the 10% voting limitation from the bylaws of Portugal Telecom. At the extraordinary meeting of shareholders of Portugal Telecom held on March 2, 2007, the removal of the 10% voting limitation was rejected by the majority of the votes cast and the Sonaecom offer for

89



Portugal Telecom lapsed. As a result, the conditions to the PT Multimédia tender offer were not met, and that tender offer also lapsed.

        In January 2007, PT Multimédia launched voice telephony services, establishing itself as an integrated "triple play" operator.

        On August 5, 2007, PT Multimédia announced an agreement to acquire Bragatel, Pluricanal Santarém and Pluricanal Leiria, three small cable operations in Portugal with 164 thousand homes passed. The completion of this transaction is subject to the review of the Competition Authority and the satisfactory completion of due diligence by PT Multimédia. If the acquisition is completed, the integration of these operations is expected to generate synergies particularly in the areas of content, marketing and general and administrative expenses.

        After the spin-off, PT Multimédia will operate as an independent company. PT Multimédia will change its corporate name after the spin-off, and this is expected to occur by the end of 2007.

Corporate Structure

        PT Multimédia is a holding company and operates in three lines of business:

Cable and Satellite Television, Broadband Internet Access and Fixed Telephony

        PT Multimédia provides cable television and direct-to-home satellite television services through TV Cabo, its wholly owned subsidiary, and TV Cabo's subsidiaries in Madeira and the Azores. In addition, it provides multimedia services, such as broadband cable Internet access and interactive digital television services. On January 23, 2007, TV Cabo launched telephony services, establishing itself as an integrated triple play operator. The triple play offer includes pay TV, broadband Internet and telephony. The sale of voice services to existing broadband customers is expected to allow TV Cabo to further grow ARPU, increase broadband penetration, reduce churn and better segment its offers to meet customer demand.

        TV Cabo is the leading cable television operator in Portugal, according to ANACOM. At June 30, 2007, TV Cabo's cable network passed, or provided potential access to, approximately 2,699 million homes, representing approximately 60% of the total TV households in Portugal. TV Cabo's cable television subscribers are charged an installation fee, a monthly subscription fee for programming packages and, for those with access to premium channels, an annual or monthly rental fee for set-top boxes.

        In 2005, TV Cabo replaced its customer relationship management, billing and provisioning systems. In the migration to the new systems, not all customer accounts were transferred correctly. During 2005, TV Cabo adjusted its database as necessary to correct these errors and did not consider revenues from certain subscribers that were incorrectly shown to have past due receivables. Also, inactive customers were removed from the reported database. In the second quarter of 2007, TV Cabo undertook an internal audit of its databases, reducing the number of homes passed by 230 thousand homes to 2,699 thousand homes passed as of June 30, 2007. No further material corrections to the database are anticipated.

        Since September 1998, TV Cabo has also offered DTH satellite television services in Portugal. TV Cabo distributes its DTH satellite service using Hispasat Satellite broadcasting capabilities. TV Cabo's DTH satellite subscribers are charged an installation fee and a monthly subscription fee and are required either to purchase or rent from TV Cabo a satellite dish and a digital set-top box. TV Cabo's DTH satellite service is mainly targeted at people whose homes are not served by TV Cabo's cable television network.

        Because it offers cable and DTH satellite services, TV Cabo can distribute pay TV services to 100% of the TV households in Portugal. As of June 30, 2007, TV Cabo had approximately 1,495 thousand customers, accounting for 33% of the TV households in Portugal. At June 30, 2007, approximately 22% of TV Cabo's subscribers subscribed to its extended basic digital service, for which it charged additional fees.

        As of June 30, 2007, TV Cabo offered 65 channels in its extended basic package (of which 40 were included in its basic package), nine premium channels for cable and DTH satellite subscribers in continental Portugal and an additional premium channel for cable subscribers only.

        Over half of the channels distributed by TV Cabo, including premium Lusomundo channels (Premium, Gallery, Action and Happy) and Sport TV channels (SportTV1 and SportTV2), consist mainly of programming that is in Portuguese or that has been dubbed or subtitled in Portuguese. The remaining channels are mainly in English, with the exception of European generalist channels in Spanish, Italian, French and German and other generalist channels to be added to the line-up in September 2007.

91



        The Portuguese terrestrial free-to-air channels RTP1, RTP2, SIC and TVI are distributed in all TV packages.

        Local content, which is available mainly on the nationally owned pay TV channels, such as SIC Notícias, SIC Mulher, SIC Radical, RTP N and RTP Memória, and is also available in internationally-sourced channels with specific feeds for the local market, is key to TV Cabo's TV value proposition.

        A customized programming line-up and content exclusivity in international entertainment channels is also a key element of TV Cabo's strategy. TV Cabo has undertaken increasing efforts to work in close partnership with its main international content suppliers to achieve specially designed channels for the Portuguese market and to ensure content exclusivity when possible.

        PT Multimédia created PT Conteúdos to manage the Portuguese-language audiovisual programming activities previously managed by TV Cabo. After restrictions on cable operators engaging in any programming business were lifted in 1997, TV Cabo formed two joint ventures to develop programming channels in Portugal (Sport TV and Premium TV) and to launch SIC Notícias, a 24-hour cable news and information channel in Portuguese. These ventures were aggregated under PT Conteúdos, which is 100% owned by PT Multimédia.

        PT Conteúdos holds PT Multimédia's 40% interest in Lisboa TV, the owner of SIC Notícias.

        PT Conteúdos is engaged in the wholesale content business. Since 2002, PT Conteúdos has been responsible for negotiations with content producers of the acquisition of rights to carry pay TV channels and other content. It resells that content to different distribution platforms, including TV Cabo's pay TV and Internet platforms, as well as those of other operators.

        PT Conteúdos sells advertising on some of the channels it distributes, where it has acquired the right to sell advertising as part of its content acquisition contracts. PT Conteúdos also manages the sale of advertising for TV Cabo's channels in exchange for an agency fee.

        In 2000, PT Multimédia and TV Cabo signed a partnership agreement with SIC-Sociedade Independente de Cominicação, S.A., or "SIC," in connection with SIC's acquisition of Lisboa TV—Informação e Multimédia, S.A., or "Lisboa TV." Through this agreement, SIC produces TV Channels for distribution by TV Cabo. Also, TV Cabo has the right, but not the obligation, to sell this content to third parties. We believe PT Multimédia's alliance with SIC has contributed to the increased penetration of TV Cabo, as the agreement contemplates cross promotions between free and cable TV and increased advertising initiatives.

        Sport TV Portugal, S.A., or "Sport TV," is 50%-owned by PT Conteúdos in a joint venture with Sportinveste, SGPS, S.A., a subsidiary of Olivedesportos, a Portuguese sports marketing firm. The joint venture produces two premium sports channels, Sport TV1 and Sport TV2, which are distributed by Portuguese cable and satellite operators in exchange for a per-subscriber fee. Sport TV holds a license to distribute most league matches of Portugal's leading football league through 2008 and certain other European football leagues, in particular, the Spanish league through 2008, the English league (Premiership) through 2009 and the Italian league through 2010. Until November 2003, 33.33% of Sport TV was owned by each of PT Conteúdos, PPTV—Publicidade de Portugal e Televisão, S.A., or "PPTV," a subsidiary of Sportinvest, and Rádio Televisão Portuguesa, S.A., or "RTP," the Portuguese state television operator. In November 2003, PT Multimédia entered into an agreement to purchase, through PT Conteúdos, an additional 16.67% stake in Sport TV from RTP for €16.3 million, thereby increasing its ownership in Sport TV to 50%. The purchase was completed in April 2004. The remaining 50% is now held by PPTV. The agreement guarantees Sport TV exclusive broadcasting rights

92


to Portuguese football league matches from 2004 through 2008. Sport TV had approximately 431,000 subscribers as of December 31, 2004, 410,000 as of December 31, 2005 and 474,000 as of December 31, 2006.

        Until June 2003, PT Conteúdos owned 54% of Premium TV, a partnership with Globo and SIC, which produced two premium movie channels—Telecine Premium and Telecine Gallery—using the film libraries of Globo. In June 2003, PT Conteúdos acquired the remaining 46% of the share capital of Premium TV held by Globo and SIC. Until May 2003, these channels were distributed via cable and satellite, through TV Cabo's platforms. In June 2003, PT Conteúdos replaced Telecine Premium and Telecine Gallery with two premium movie channels (Lusomundo Premium and Lusomundo Gallery), produced in-house using the film libraries of Lusomundo. PT Conteúdos launched Lusomundo Action in 2004 and Lusomundo Happy in 2005, as described above, and in December 2004, Premium TV was merged into PT Conteúdos and ceased to exist as a separate company.

        As of June 30, 2007, TV Cabo had approximately 381,000 subscribers for its broadband Internet access product. TV Cabo is the second broadband Internet provider in Portugal after Portugal Telecom, based on the number of subscribers, according to ANACOM. In addition to its postpaid service, TV Cabo launched the first prepaid broadband product in Portugal in 2004 under the brand name "Zzt." TV Cabo was also the first operator to offer downstream speeds of 1Mbps. In 2006, TV Cabo became the first ISP in Portugal to raise traffic limits on its 4Mbps and 8Mbps products. Also, TV Cabo launched a 24Mbps Internet access product, positioning Netcabo as the fastest broadband service in the Portuguese market. Simultaneously, TV Cabo launched a 1Mbps product and doubled to 8Mbps of the download speed of the Netcabo standard broadband product ("Netcabo Mega Plus").

        In March 2005, in partnership with sapo.pt, the Portugal Telecom group's portal, Sapo Messenger was launched, allowing for instant messaging between NetCabo and Sapo ADSL customers, and in July 2005, Sapo Messenger allowed for free PC2PC voice calling and video between NetCabo and Sapo ADSL customers. In addition, in July 2005 the NetCabo site was revamped to allow simpler and more user-friendly navigation, and the customer area of the site was improved by making a larger number of on-line services available.

        In October 2005, TV Cabo launched ADSL Internet access services based on the wholesale offer of PT Comunicações, a subsidiary of Portugal Telecom, which allows broadband Internet sales in areas not covered by the cable network.

        On January 23, 2007, TV Cabo launched telephony services, establishing itself as an integrated "triple-play." The bundled triple play offer comprises Pay TV, broadband Internet and voice telephony services.

        The telephony service is operated under the general authorization framework for the provision of "nomadic" VoIP. PT Multimédia operates a full carrier voice service with a non-geographic numbering prefix "30."

        The initial demand for the service and subsequent response has exceeded PT Multimédia's expectations, and at the end of June 2007, fixed telephony subscribers were approximately 24,000. PT Multimédia has also requested an authorization to provide telephony services using geographic numbering in order to allow it to offer number portability, which it believes will encourage growth of its triple play offer.

93



        Throughout 2006, PT Multimédia continued its efforts to digitalize its pay TV services. Digitalization provides higher security levels in controlling illegal access to content (TV Cabo uses NAGRA's ALADIN conditional access system) and will allow PT Multimédia to make available to customers additional TV channels and services, such as VoD (video-on-demand), EPG (electronic programming guide), multi-game and multi-camera services, which add value to customers and create a competitive advantage. PT Multimédia seeks to encourage the migration of its clients from analog to digital services by offering a greater selection of content and services, as in the introduction of its "Funtastic Life" package in 2005. TV Cabo completed the digitalization of its set-top boxes during the first half of 2006, with the total number of digital set-top boxes reaching 682 thousand at the end of December 2006. In 2006, "Funtastic Life," TV Cabo's 65-channel digital package, reached 270,000 subscribers by the end of December 2006, with 160,000 net additions in 2006. As of June 2007, total "Funtastic Life" subscribers reached 328,000.

        TV Cabo has made significant investments in the development of a hybrid fiber-coaxial broadband distribution network. The fiber portion of this distribution network is currently a service provided by Portugal Telecom's fixed line business. This service includes the use of optical fiber and all equipment infrastructure to handle broadcast, narrowcast and return path signals, as well as their respective operation and maintenance. In addition, TV Cabo has used PT Comunicações' existing ducts wherever possible to build its network. Access to PT Comunicações' ducts is currently regulated by ANACOM, which has the power to supervise how PT Comunicações interacts with operators that enter into service agreements under the framework of the Reference Offer to Access to Ducts. After the spin-off is effective, TV Cabo will be able to lease the same dark fiber segments that are currently in use.

        The network has a bandwidth of 750 MHz and 860 MHz in certain areas and is sufficient to permit gradual migration to digital signals. The current design of the network allows PT Multimédia to increase capacity without significant additional capital expenditures. The network has nine Head Ends, each capable of providing the full set of analog, digital and broadband services. The main Head Ends are interconnected with high capacity GbE redundant links, carrying digital video, broadband data and voice. The implementation of a network architecture consisting of several hubs interconnected with high-capacity redundant links has been completed in the greater Lisbon area (18 hubs and five high-capacity optical fiber rings are now fully functional) and is being deployed in the greater Porto area (where 15 hubs and four high-capacity optical fiber rings are expected to be finished by the end of the year).

        TV Cabo's DTH service is supported by two uplink stations, which access seven Hispasat transponders. As of December 31, 2006, 97.1% of homes passed were bi-directional and therefore broadband-enabled, over 90% were digital TV-enabled and 80% were VoIP-compliant. TV Cabo also has begun a cable network expansion plan for high-population areas adjacent to areas that currently have cable service, with more network expansions expected in 2007 and 2008.

        TV Cabo is pursuing aggressive marketing campaigns, promoting its premium channels and its Funtastic Life service, highlighting the high level of Portuguese-language content on its channels, as well as promoting its broadband Internet access service and its VoIP telephony service. TV Cabo markets its services through door-to-door selling, telemarketing, its own shops, kiosks, supermarkets and other retail shops.

Cinema Distribution and Exhibition and Entertainment

        Lusomundo Audiovisuais acquires rights for cinema, DVD, video, pay-per-view and television and also produces its own Pay TV premium movie channels and distributes DVDs and videos. Lusomundo Audiovisuais has the right to distribute the following audiovisual content in Portugal:

        Lusomundo Audiovisuais is the leading distributor of audiovisual content in Portugal, according to the Instituto de Cinema, Audiovisual e Multimédia, or "ICAM," the Portuguese Cinema, Audiovisual and Multimedia Institute. In 2006, PT Multimédia reinforced its market position in the area of cinema distribution, increasing its share from 46.3% in 2005 to 50% in 2006, primarily due to the launch of a significant number of films with high potential (in 2006, PT Multimédia had 13 of the top 20 most seen films, compared to 10 films in 2005) and the increase in the number of films released (122 films in 2006 compared to 95 in 2005).

        Acquisition of Rights.    Lusomundo Audiovisuais has the right to distribute theatrical content in Portugal and African Portuguese speaking countries produced by UIP (Universal, Dreamworks and Paramount) and Walt Disney International. In addition, it has the right to distribute home video content in Portugal produced by Walt Disney and Paramount (including Dreamworks). Lusomundo Audiovisuais also acquires and distributes content from independent producers such as Summit, Icon, Revolution Studios and Spyglass, among others, rights to movies, i.e., theatrical, home video, television, video-on-demand and Internet downloads.

        Lusomundo Audiovisuais increased revenues from the sale of non-theatrical or home video rights in 2006 by close to 8% as a consequence of the improved performance of the Lusomundo movie channels, in particular in Angola and Mozambique. This trend has been maintained in the first half of 2007, with year-on-year growth reaching 8%.

        Cinema Distribution.    Lusumundo Audiovisuais distributes films in Portugal both to Lusomundo Cinemas, which is described below, and to other cinema exhibition companies. In 2006, Lusomundo Audiovisuais distributed 122 movies, accounting for 50% of box-office receipts in Portuguese movie theaters. Of particular note among the new films released were "Pirates of the Caribbean 2," "Over the Edge," "Miami Vice" and "Mission Impossible III." Lusomundo released 13 of the top 20 titles of the year. Distribution revenues in 2006 increased 11% compared to the previous year. This trend has been maintained in the first half of 2007, with an increase of 29% over the same period in 2006.

        DVD and Video Distribution.    Lusomundo Audiovisuais distributes DVDs and videos in Portugal to retail markets, kiosks and rental stores. In 2006, the company experienced a decrease of 18% in its home video sales, mainly due to lower quality products available to release and to piracy. This situation has been reversed in the first half of 2007, with sales increasing by 20% compared to the first half of 2006, particularly due to the commencement of distribution through the Paramount catalog of Dreamworks products, which have been well accepted in the market.

        In 2005, DVDs lost ground compared to the previous year, by almost 15% in terms of units sold and around 7% by value. An apparent increase in average price was due to a sharp downturn in DVD sales through newspapers, while in general the average retail price of movies in this format has fallen. The lower prices are essentially the result of increasing competition among the various distributors in the market and the widespread counterfeiting of DVDs that continues in Portugal.

95



        Lusomundo Cinemas is the market leader in Portuguese cinema exhibition, with an approximate 50% market share as of June 2007, according to ICAM. PT Multimédia continues its policy of rigorous analysis of the market, seeking opportunities for expansion and increased profitability of its business. As a result, in 2006 PT Multimédia closed four unprofitable cinemas and opened 23 new cinemas in high population density areas. At the end of June 2007, PT Multimédia had 28 film theaters, with a total of 195 screens, 10 of which with digital equipment. PT Multimédia had 148 and 178 screens at the end of 2004 and 2005, respectively. PT Multimédia's actions in the area of film exhibition were characterized by the steady improvement in the quality of its services: complexes continue to be renovated selectively, improvements in ticket purchasing systems have been introduced (with the innovation of the launch of the M-Ticket in collaboration with TMN), and the first cinema in Portugal equipped for 3D digital exhibition was opened, using the most up-to-date digital exhibition standards. In 2006, the number of tickets sold in Portugal increased 10.7%, reaching 8,026 thousand tickets. As of June 2007, tickets sold amounted to 3,817 thousand, an increase of 5% over the same period in 2006.

        The increase in tickets sold in 2006, which has continued in 2007, followed a drop in ticket sales in the previous year. The number of tickets sold dropped 6.1% in 2005 compared to 2004, totaling 7,250 thousand. This decrease, as was noted also in other European and American markets, was due to lower attendance rates in the cinema exhibition business stemming from the continuing effects of growth in the DVD market, the lower number of blockbusters released worldwide in 2005 and the increased competition among movie distributors (with most of the best films being released at virtually the same time by multiple distributors). As with DVD and video distribution, movie attendance was and continues to be adversely affected by widespread counterfeiting and sale of DVDs.

        In response to these market conditions, Lusomundo Cinemas has been progressively reorganizing its screening activities since 2005 so as to render them more dynamic and to boost profits of this business. Unprofitable theaters were closed, others redesigned and new screening rooms were opened in areas with a high population density. This strategic rationale continues to be followed by PT Multimédia.

        In July 2005, PT Multimédia sold its 33% stake in Warner Lusomundo Sogecable, a joint venture with Warner Bros. and Sogecable for cinema exhibition in Spain.

Material Contracts

        At the effective time of the spin-off, PT Multimédia will be party to a number of important agreements with subsidiaries of Portugal Telecom, the most important of which are:

These contracts are described in greater detail under "Certain Relationships Between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia."

        PT Multimédia is also party to other contracts in the ordinary course of its business. Some of these contracts are critical to PT Multimédia's business, including its leases of satellite transponders that are important to its pay TV business. As of December 31, 2006, TV Cabo had €131.8 million in lease contracts for satellite capacity that expire in 2016 and are recorded as capital leases. See note 28 to the audited consolidated financial statements of PT Multimédia for years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006.

96



        PT Multimédia's 50%-owned joint venture Sport TV is party to the agreement with PPTV described under "—Cable and Satellite Television, Broadband Internet Access and Fixed Telephony-Cable and DTH Television Services-Sport TV."

        In addition, PT Multimédia is party to a number of financing contracts described under "Management's Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of PT Multimédia-Liquidity and Capital Resources Indebtedness."

Seasonality

        PT Multimédia does not experience significant fluctuations in revenues or business activities owing to seasonality. PT Multimédia has historically experienced higher revenues from publicity in the second and fourth fiscal quarters and higher revenues in its cinema exhibition business during the Christmas holiday season due to film release schedules, but these effects have generally not been material to PT Multimédia as a whole.

Competition

        Certain cable television operators are authorized to provide services in Portugal in addition to PT Multimédia's subsidiary TV Cabo. PT Multimédia's competitors operate principally in Portugal's major cities and include Cabovisão, Bragatel, Pluricanal and TV TEL. In August 2007, PT Multimédia entered into an agreement to acquire Bragatel, Pluricanal Leiria and Pluricanal Santarém, subject to the review of the Competition Authority and the satisfactory completion of due diligence. According to ANACOM figures, PT Multimédia estimates that at the end of June 2007, TV Cabo's competitors had approximately 23% of the total number of subscribers in the pay TV market. Also, in June 2007, Portugal Telecom undertook a soft launch of an Internet protocol television service ("IPTV") that will compete with PT Multimédia's cable television services. After the spin-off is effective, Portugal Telecom expects to pursue a full commercial launch of its IPTV service.

        TV Cabo currently has control over nine cable authorizations covering 125 counties in seven regions in continental Portugal and the Madeira and Azores Islands, all of which expire in May 2009. In February 2004, a new regulatory framework was introduced under which no specific authorizations or licenses for the provision of cable television services are required. After the current authorizations expire, the existing licenses will not be renewed and the new regulatory framework will apply. See "—Regulation—TV Cabo's Cable Television Authorizations". PT Multimédia expects competition to increase as a result of this increased regulatory flexibility.

        PT Multimédia competes for advertising revenue with terrestrial television companies (free-to-air channels) and other forms of media such as newspapers, magazines, radio, billboards and the Internet. It also competes with terrestrial television companies for the acquisition of programming to attract viewers. Such competition can increase program acquisition costs.

        PT Multimédia competes with cable companies, such as Cabovisão, in the provision of broadband Internet services.

        In August 2001, the Portuguese State granted an authorization to Plataforma de Televisão Digital Portuguesa, S.A., or "PTDP," to provide digital terrestrial television services. ANACOM instructed PTDP that it must begin operations before March 1, 2003. As PTDP had difficulty complying with the instruction, ANACOM, with PTDP's agreement, proposed to the Ministry of Economy that PTDP's authorization be revoked. By order of the Minister of Economy, dated March 25, 2003 (Ministerial order 6973/2003, published on April 9, 2003), the authorization was revoked. In 2005, the Portuguese State announced that it intended to reopen competitive bidding for a license to provide digital terrestrial television services in Portugal, which could result in increased competition for TV Cabo. In

97



2007, the Portuguese State is expected to open competitive bidding for one or more licenses for the provision of digital terrestrial television services.

        PT Multimédia competes with cable companies, such as Cabovisão, in the provision of broadband Internet services.

        As existing technology develops and new technologies emerge, competition is likely to intensify, in particular with regard to products and services related to subscription TV and the Internet. PT Multimédia's cable and satellite business face competition from broadband local loop access based on wireless technologies (Broadband Wireless Access). In 2005, AR Telecom (formerly Jazztel), a direct competitor, launched TV and broadband wireless service in the geographic areas where it operates. Also, PT Multimédia expects video over ADSL to increase competition. Sonaecom launched an IPTV offer in 2006 that competes with PT Multimédia's television services. In July 2007, TV TEL, a cable operator mainly operating in the region of Oporto, launched a satellite service which may be accessible by all households in Portugal. Also, TV TEL has plans to further expand its cable network, in particular in the metropolitan area of Lisbon.

        During 2007, Sonaecom acquired the operations of Oni and Tele2, two smaller operators, reinforcing its competitive position in the market, especially in the broadband and telephony segments.

        In the four main sub-segments of this business segment (film distribution, cinema exhibition, video distribution and distribution of rights for TV broadcasting), PT Multimédia faces competition from various entities that differ from segment to segment as follows:

        In all of the activities mentioned above, except in the distribution of rights for TV broadcasting, where the free-to-air TV stations are primarily supplied by the international market, Lusomundo Audiovisuais and Lusomundo Cinemas are market leaders in Portugal in terms of the number of movie titles distributed and the number of movie theaters owned, according to ICAM.

Properties

        PT Multimédia's principal properties consist of buildings and telecommunications installations. These include transmission equipment and cable networks located throughout Portugal.

        PT Multimédia also has some leased offices, which are located at the following addresses:

        PT Multimédia has registered its important trademarks, such as "PT Multimédia," "TV Cabo," "Netcabo" and their related logos in Portugal. Before the effective date of the spin-off, Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia will enter into an agreement pursuant to which PT Multimédia and its

98



subsidiaries will cease to use any corporate names, trademarks, logos, Internet domain names and any other intellectual property or other rights which may suggest any relationship between Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia after the spin-off, including the corporate name PT Multimédia, which is expected to be changed by the end of 2007.

        PT Multimédia does not own any registered patents or copyrights that are material to its business as a whole.

Legal Proceedings

        PT Multimédia is regularly involved in regulatory inquiries and investigations involving its operations. In addition, ANACOM, the European Commission and the Competition Authority regularly make inquiries and conduct investigations concerning its compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Current inquires and investigations include several investigations by the Competition Authority relating to (i) TV Cabo for alleged anti-competitive practices in the broadband Internet market; (ii) TV Cabo and Sport TV by TV TEL, a cable TV company operating in the Oporto area, for alleged refusal to supply advertising space; and (iii) PT Conteúdos and TV Cabo for alleged anti-competitive practices in connection with media content and their strategic partnership with SIC. We believe PT Multimédia has consistently followed a policy of compliance with all relevant laws. PT Multimédia continually reviews its commercial offers in order to reduce the risk of competition law infringement. We believe that most of the complaints that have resulted in such investigations should be dismissed due to the nature of the alleged abuses and the novelty of the relevant competition laws. However, if PT Multimédia is found to be in violation of applicable laws and regulations in these or other regulatory inquiries and investigations, PT Multimédia could become subject to penalties, fines, damages or other sanctions.

        In September 2005, the Portuguese Competition Authority also brought allegations against PT Multimédia and TV Cabo for practices allegedly in violation of Article 4 of Law 18/2003 (the Portuguese Competition Law) following the execution in 2000 of a partnership agreement among PT Multimédia, TV Cabo and SIC-Sociedade Independente de Comunicação, S.A. (SIC) in connection with SIC's acquisition of Lisboa TV—Informação e Multimédia, S.A. PT Multimédia and TV Cabo contested the allegations by the Portuguese Competition Authority. In August 2006, the Portuguese Competition Authority imposed a fine of €2.5 million on PT Multimédia. PT Multimédia and TV Cabo appealed to the Commerce Court of Lisbon on September 8, 2006. This appeal suspended the decision of the Portuguese Competition Authority. On August 14, 2007, PT Multimédia was notified of the Commerce Court's decision, which limited the Competition Authority's decision concerning the first option clause of the partnership agreement. The Commerce Court also declared that the proceeding initiated by the Competition Authority was null and void and, therefore, that the Competition Authority should initiate a new proceeding solely with respect to the exclusivity clause.

        On June 8, 2005, Portugal Telecom was informed through the press that Sonaecom had filed a complaint against it with the European Commission, under article 82 of the EU Treaty, alleging abuse of dominant position in the Portuguese market in connection with our provision of both cable television and fixed line services, respectively, through our subsidiaries, PT Multimédia and PT Comunicações. Sonaecom requested that the European Commission require us to separate our cable television and fixed line telecommunications operations—a so-called "structural remedy." However, on February 2, 2006, the Commission responded that the complaint should be addressed by the Portuguese Autoridade da Concorrência. To our knowledge, proceedings before the European Commission related to this complaint are now closed. We have not received further information about whether Sonaecom intends to pursue this matter with the Autoridade da Concorrência. After the Commission's response,

99



Sonaecom and its parent Sonae, SGPS, S.A. announced an unsolicited tender offer for all the outstanding ordinary shares of Portugal Telecom. This tender offer has lapsed.

        Law No. 5/2004, the Electronic Communications Law, introduced the Municipal Fee on Rights of Way (Taxa Municipal de Direitos de Passagem), or "TMDP," to replace municipal-level charges on the installation and rights of way of systems and equipment belonging to companies offering electronic communications services. The TMDP is assessed based on invoices issued to final customers in a municipality at a maximum percentage of 0.25% of the value of the invoices. However, some cities, have maintained Occupation Taxes on electronic communications companies in addition to or in lieu of the TMDP. Based on opinions of its counsel, we believe that the TMDP is the only tax that can be charged for rights of way and installation and that the Occupation Taxes charged by some cities are illegal. TV Cabo has submitted several claims to the tax authorities and the courts, contesting the payment of the Occupation Taxes. Some municipalities have launched execution foreclosure proceedings against TV Cabo in order to obtain payment of the Occupation Taxes. These proceedings have been suspended, pending decision on the administrative and judicial claims submitted by TV Cabo.

Regulation

        The telecommunications and multimedia industry has traditionally been heavily regulated in most countries of the world, including Portugal. Over the last several years, Portugal (beginning in 1990) has substantially privatized its state-held telecommunications operators and has been opening its telecommunications markets to competition. Portugal, a member of the European Union, opened its telecommunications market to full competition as of January 1, 2000. Portugal is pursuing further EU-led initiatives aimed at increasing the competitiveness of its market. This section explains the main laws and regulations that affect PT Multimédia and its operating companies.

        ANACOM.    The ICP—Autoridade Nacional das Comunicações, or "ANACOM," created in January 2001 (formerly the Instituto das Comunicações de Portugal, or "ICP"), is the Portuguese telecommunications regulator. Since it commenced operations in 1989, it has been closely involved in developing the telecommunications regulatory framework in Portugal. It advises the Portuguese State on telecommunications policy and legislation and monitors compliance with concessions, licenses and permits granted to telecommunications providers in Portugal.

        ANACOM is accountable to the Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Communications. The Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Communications retains basic responsibility for telecommunications policy in Portugal. Together with the Ministry of Finance, it has ultimate responsibility for monitoring our compliance with our Concession. It also has certain supervisory powers with respect to our activities. The Portuguese State delegated a significant number of those powers and functions to ANACOM.

        Over the past several years, the Portuguese State has substantially increased the autonomy of ANACOM and allowed it to become a more effective and independent regulatory body. ANACOM acts on complaints against PT Multimédia by its competitors, customers and other interested parties. It can impose fines on PT Multimédia if it does not meet its obligations under its Concession. ANACOM has, from time to time, addressed complaints against PT Multimédia by its competitors. However, such complaints have been resolved in a manner that has not had a material adverse effect on PT Multimédia's businesses or operations. ANACOM's decisions are subject to possible reconsideration and can be submitted for judicial review.

        EC Commission.    Most of the EU competition rules have the force of law in all EU member states and therefore apply to PT Multimédia in Portugal. The current priority of the European Commission is to ensure that EU member states fully and correctly implement EU requirements in national law. The European Commission routinely monitors the status of EU member states in implementing EU directives.

        The Directorate-General for Competition of the European Commission is responsible for considering, on its own initiative as well as in response to complaints by interested parties, potential claims that PT Multimédia's business activities or Portuguese State regulations are inconsistent with the key provisions of the Treaty of Amsterdam, also known as the EC Treaty, relating to competition in the EU. Article 81 of the treaty prohibits agreements or coordinated action between competitors that may affect trade between EU member states and have as their objective or effect the prevention, restriction or distortion of competition within the EU. Article 82 of the treaty prohibits any abuse of a market-dominating position within the EU, or a substantial part of the EU, that may affect trade between EU member states. The Directorate-General for Competition enforces these rules in cooperation with the national competition authorities. In addition, national courts have jurisdiction over violations of EU competition law.

        Competition Authority.    The activities of PT Multimédia are also overseen by the Competition Authority (formerly the Direcção Geral do Comércio e da Concorrência, or "DGCC"), which is responsible for enforcement of Portuguese competition law. It is also responsible for considering complaints relating to PT Multimédia's business practices or other business arrangements. PT Multimédia expects the Competition Authority to take a more active role in matters relating to pricing and to the determination of which companies have "significant market power" and the regulatory implications for such companies.

        In February 2002, the European Union agreed upon a new regulatory framework for electronic communications networks and services, consisting of five directives governing procedures, authorizations, access, universal service and data protection; one decision on the availability and use of radio spectrum; and a recommendation on relevant product and service markets within the electronic communications sector subject to "ex ante" regulation in accordance with Directive 2002/21/EC of the European Parliament and Council on a common regulatory framework for electronic communications networks and services. Four of the five directives that make up the new EU framework were adopted into law in Portugal on February 10, 2004 as part of Law 5/2004, the Electronic Communications Law (which we refer to as "Law 5/2004"). The fifth directive was adopted into law on August 18, 2004.

        Under the new regulatory framework set out in Law No. 5/2004, the provision of cable television networks and services is subject only to a general authorization regime, which depends on the compliance with the rules provided for in the law and regulations. That is, the new framework does not require specific authorizations or licenses from ANACOM.

        Currently, TV Cabo and its subsidiaries Cabo TV Açoreana and Cabo TV Madeirense, hold nine cable television authorizations to provide cable television services in 125 counties in continental Portugal and the Madeira and Azores Islands. All of these authorizations expire in May 2009 and will not be renewed, allowing the new regulatory framework to take effect. In order to continue operating its cable television network, TV Cabo and its subsidiaries will be required only to submit new communications to ANACOM with respect to their services, and the general authorization regime now in force shall apply. Currently, several other operators are also authorized to provide cable television services in Portugal, as described in "—Competition." All of these authorizations permit the construction of cable distribution centers and networks. They also contain quality of service standards and, in most cases, obligations to construct networks capable of reaching 80% of the population of the

101



authorized area. The remaining 20% of the population may request connection at an extra charge. The charges for the provision of cable television services are not subject to regulation.

        Although not considered public domain assets and not subject to the wireline Concession of Portugal Telecom, the cable television infrastructure that TV Cabo has installed and operates in areas in the public domain may be subject to reversion or transfer to third parties. Although under the terms of Law 5/2004, cable operators are ensured the right to install cable infrastructure on public property and such right may not be extinguished before the end of the period for which it was granted, there may be situations in which such right could be withdrawn, subject to the right of the operator to receive compensation.

        Under Portuguese law, advertising on TV Cabo's channels is generally restricted on the same terms as on broadcast TV. These restrictions include a ban on alcohol advertisements before 10 p.m. and a complete ban on tobacco advertisements. Advertising on premium channels cannot take up more than 10% of air time, and advertising on basic channels cannot take up more than 20% of air time.

        Portuguese law currently permits television operators to produce and broadcast their own television programming. In addition, Portuguese legislation permits the use of two-way signaling capability over cable television networks. The ability to transmit and receive signals allows the introduction of pay-per-view, home shopping and similar products in Portugal.

        Various regulatory developments may affect PT Multimédia's Internet business. Portugal has adopted Decree Law 290-D/99 regarding digital signatures, which established a legal framework for electronic documents and digital signatures. This framework is a key component for developing e-commerce business. Portugal is expected to enact further measures pursuant to the EU Electronic Signature Directive, adopted in December 1999. The EU Electronic Commerce Directive, which was implemented in January 2002, further promotes the free movement of electronically provided services and commerce within the EU. For example, it requires EU member states to absolve information carriers and host-services providers from liability for the content of information transmitted over the Internet. Such provisions provide PT Multimédia with legal protection that is important in carrying out the business of PT Multimédia. The 1995 EU Data Protection Directive, which was implemented in Portugal in 1998, places restrictions on the use by Internet companies of personal data stored on their networks. It is not possible at this time to ascertain the burden that data protection schemes or other self-regulation and content-monitoring requirements may impose on PT Multimédia's Internet business.

        The European Commission issued a directive on September 16, 2002 (Directive 2002/77/EC) that requires member states to enact legislation directing incumbent telecommunications operators to separate their cable television and telecommunications network operations into distinct legal entities. Portugal Telecom believes that steps already taken to operate its cable television business in Portugal through PT Multimédia, a separate legal entity that has independent shareholders, satisfy the requirements of the directive implemented in Portugal. The spin-off of PT Multimédia by Portugal Telecom is expected to address the long-standing objectives of the Portuguese regulators with respect to the Portuguese fiber and cable networks.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN PORTUGAL TELECOM AND PT MULTIMÉDIA

        We currently own 58.43% of PT Multimédia, and the results of operations of PT Multimédia's subsidiaries have been included in our consolidated financial results. As a subsidiary of Portugal Telecom, in the ordinary course of business, PT Multimédia has received various services provided by Portugal Telecom, including consolidation accounting, financial reporting, treasury, tax, legal, executive oversight and human resources among other services.

        Immediately after the spin-off, we are expected to retain approximately 7% of the PT Multimédia ordinary shares due to the mechanics for applying withholding tax and adjustments for fractional shares as described in "The Spin-Off," and PT Multimédia will not own any Portugal Telecom shares. There will be a variety of contractual relationships between us and PT Multimédia to provide for ongoing commercial relationships.

Implementation of the Spin-Off

        The spin-off was approved by Portugal Telecom's shareholders on April 27, 2007. We and PT Multimédia are cooperating to ensure that the purposes of the spin-off are fully achieved, both through coordination among the boards of directors and executive officers of Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia and by negotiating in good faith to reach the new agreements described in the next subsection.

Continuing Commercial Relationships

        We and PT Multimédia each have extensive operations in Portugal. Furthermore, there are a number of areas where Portugal Telecom is a key supplier of PT Multimédia, particularly in network infrastructure, information technology, customer care services and corporate back office services. While certain relationships will be discontinued or phased out as a result of the spin-off, we will continue to have a wide variety of ongoing commercial relationships after the spin-off that will be governed by arm's-length terms similar to those on which each company does business with other independent parties. The following description summarizes the material existing relationships, before and after the spin-off.

        A significant portion of the hybrid fiber coax ("HFC") network and certain related equipment used by TV Cabo to provide its cable TV, cable broadband Internet and VoIP services are owned by Portugal Telecom. In 2005, TV Cabo and Portugal Telecom's subsidiary PT Comunicações entered into a long-term agreement for the use of network capacity that expires in December 2008. TV Cabo agreed to pay a total of €70 million for its rights over the term of the contract. This contract is currently being re-negotiated. Portugal Telecom expects to sell to TV Cabo the relevant network equipment used exclusively by TV Cabo and to have the term of the renegotiated contract for the remaining facilities extended to 2010.

        In addition, the network used by TV Cabo passes through facilities owned by Portugal Telecom, including ducts, posts and exchange buildings. TV Cabo pays a monthly fee for these rights of way under the contract described in the preceding paragraph. The pricing and the right to access Portugal Telecom infrastructure itself is regulated by ANACOM (ORAC and ORALL).

        In the future, PT Multimédia may decide either to continue to use Portugal Telecom's facilities, rent telecommunications capacity from other suppliers or build its own infrastructure based on a technical and financial assessment of its needs.

103



        Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia have ongoing relationships in both information technology infrastructure and application management. Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia use a number of functions, including accounting, human resources, customer relationship management and billing, that share the same data center. Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia are undertaking ongoing projects for the complete separation of their IT platforms, which are expected to be concluded in the first half of 2008. In the interim period, there are a number of access restriction projects to ensure protection of confidential information of Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia that will be concluded by November 2007.

        PT Sistemas de Informação, S.A. ("PT SI"), Portugal Telecom's IT subsidiary has a contract with TV Cabo expiring in December 2008 for application management of a number of key IT platforms used by TV Cabo, including accounting, customer care and billing. TV Cabo paid €10.3 million in 2006 and €5.8 million in 2005 to PT SI for these services. Upon expiration, PT Multimédia may seek to renew its contract with PT SI or choose a different service provider.

        Through its subsidiary PT Contact—Telemarketing e Serviços de Informação, S.A. ("PT Contact"), Portugal Telecom provides a number of customer care services to PT Multimédia that range from outsourced call center services to the provision of infrastructure (both office space and a call center IT platform). Currently, in two of three sites used by TV Cabo, in Lisbon and Castelo Branco, both the office infrastructure and the IT platform are owned by PT Contact. PT Mulitmédia paid €15.0 million in 2006 and €10.0 million in 2005 to PT Contact for its services.

        PT Multimédia has an agreement to continue to use the Lisboa site, where the bulk of its call center activities are located, until December 2008 and is in the process of finding an alternative site. PT Multimédia has entered into agreements to purchase the required IT platform to be deployed. All the services provided at the Castelo Branco site will be phased out during the first quarter of 2008 and moved to the existing locations in Lisbon and Porto.

        All the call center outsourcing contracts with PT Contact have already been replaced with contracts with other service providers in Lisbon and are expected to be phased out and replaced in Castelo Branco by March 2008.

        PT Pro—Serviços Administrativos e de Gestão Partilhados, S.A. ("PT PRO"), Portugal Telecom's shared services subsidiary, has an agreement for the provision of all corporate and customer back office functions to PT Multimédia through 2009. PT Multimédia paid €11.0 million in 2006 and €5.3 million in 2005 to PT PRO. After the spin-off, this agreement will be terminated, and PT Multimédia will enter into a 50-50 joint venture with PT Pro. The joint venture is expected to provide all the back office functions that are currently provided by PT Pro under new contracts with PT Multimédia.

        A limited number of other corporate and administrative functions are expected to be provided by Portugal Telecom to PT Multimédia during a transition period, including assistance in financial reporting and transfer of financial reporting functions to PT Multimédia. Portugal Telecom will not charge PT Multimédia for services provided through the end of 2007.

Employee Arrangements

        PT Multimédia has traditionally benefited from the services of certain employees of Portugal Telecom who were ceded to PT Multimédia for a fixed or indefinite period. After the spin-off, certain of these employees will return to Portugal Telecom, and no Portugal Telecom employees will be seconded to PT Multimédia.

104



DIVIDENDS AND DIVIDEND POLICY OF PT MULTIMÉDIA

        The board of directors of PT Multimédia has a dividend distribution policy that considers business opportunities, investors' expectations and needs of financing with own capital, taking into account capital opportunity cost and subject to Portuguese law and the company's bylaws.

        PT Multimédia's by-laws provide that annual net income must be applied as follows:

a percentage not lower than 5% is allocated to a legal reserve, up to the amount required by law;

a percentage not lower than 40% is allocated to shareholders as a dividend, although the shareholders, by a two-thirds majority vote of those present, may decide to reduce dividends or even not to distribute them; and

the remaining is allocated as defined at the general meeting of shareholders.

        The following table presents dividends paid by PT Multimédia per ordinary share for the fiscal years 2002 through 2006. U.S. dollar amounts have been calculated using the exchange rate in effect on the date each dividend was paid.

MANAGEMENT OF PT MULTIMÉDIA

Management Structure

        The Board of Directors of PT Multimédia is responsible for its management and affairs. Four members of the Board of Directors currently act as PT Multimédia's Executive Committee and are responsible for the day-to-day management of PT Multimédia. In addition, PT Multimédia has nine other executive officers who are in charge of PT Multimédia's various business and administrative departments. These executive officers report to the Executive Committee.

        PT Multimédia's bylaws provide for a Board of Directors consisting of up to 15 directors, including the Chairman. The directors are elected by a majority of the votes cast at the annual shareholders' meeting following the expiration of their term. A minority of the shareholders representing, in the aggregate, at least 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital has the right to elect a director to substitute for the director previously elected by the fewest number of votes. The term of office of the directors is three calendar years, with the year of election or appointment considered a full calendar year. There is no restriction on the re-election of directors.

        The bylaws provide for an Executive Committee of the Board to which the Board of Directors can delegate the day-to-day management of PT Multimédia's affairs. However, the Board of Directors remains responsible for PT Multimédia's overall management and operations. The Executive Committee may be comprised of three, five or seven directors selected by a majority of the Board of Directors. The vote of a majority of the members of the Executive Committee is necessary for the taking of any action by the Executive Committee. All members have equal voting rights, and the President has the deciding vote in the event of a tie.

        A quorum for a meeting of the Board of Directors is a simple majority of directors. All directors have equal voting rights, and all resolutions of the Board of Directors are adopted by a majority of the votes cast. The Chairman has the deciding vote in the event of a tie.

Board of Directors and Executive Committee

        PT Multimédia's Board of Directors currently consists of 13 directors, and its Executive Committee currently consists of four directors. The current Board of Directors was elected in April 2007 for a three-year term of office (with 2007 considered a full calendar year), and there are no restrictions on re-election of directors.

        On September 21, 2007, four new directors were appointed following the resignation of five other directors (Zeinal Bava, Manuel Rosa da Silva, Francisco Nunes, Pedro Leitão and Joaquim Goes). These new directors will complete the 2007-2009 term of office together with the other members of the Board of Directors.

Committees

        PT Multimédia currently has an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee. These committees are described below. PT Multimédia may create additional committees in the future, including committees to replace the Portugal Telecom committees from which it has benefited as a subsidiary of Portugal Telecom prior to the spin-off, such as a Corporate Governance Committee.

        In response to the recent changes in the Portuguese Commercial Companies Code relating to corporate governance, PT Multimédia's shareholders amended the by-laws at the General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 22, 2007 to create an audit committee consisting of three non-executive board members. For more information on the recent corporate governance changes, see "—Corporate Governance" below.

        The authority granted under Portuguese law to the Audit Committee includes, among other things, the authority to:

113


        The Audit Committee holds meetings at least once every two months during each financial year at the time and place determined by its chairman, without prejudice of additional meetings being convened by the chairman or at request of any of its other members. The Audit Committee may not meet without the attendance of the majority of its members.

        Resolutions of the Audit Committee are adopted by the majority of votes cast, and the chairman has the deciding vote in the event of a tie. The resolutions adopted during the Audit Committee's meetings, as well as its members' voting statements, are recorded in the minutes.

        PT Multimédia has a Compensation Committee whose members are elected directly by the shareholders and are not members of the Board of Directors. The committee determines the compensation of the members of the Board of Directors (including the members of the Audit Committee) and of the board of the General Meeting of Shareholders of PT Multimédia. The current members of the Compensation Committee are António Cândido Seruca de Carvalho Salgado, Luís Manuel Roque de Pinho Patrício and Agostinho do Nascimento Pereira de Miranda, all of whom were elected at the General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 22, 2007.

114


Statutory Auditor

        PT Multimédia has a statutory auditor, and one alternate auditor, elected by a majority of the votes cast at a general shareholders' meeting following a proposal of the Audit Committee of PT Multimédia. The statutory auditor's role is to verify the regularity of all books, accounting records and supporting documents; monitor the cash position and the inventories of any kind of assets or securities belonging to the company or received by it by way of guarantee, deposit or otherwise; monitor the accuracy of the financial statements; and evaluate whether the accounting policies and valuation criteria adopted by the company lead to the correct statement of its results of operations and the correct valuation of its assets. The current statutory auditor is Oliveira, Reis & Associados, SROC, Lda., represented by José Vieira dos Reis (permanent) and Fernando Marques Oliveira (alternate).

Compensation

        PT Multimédia seeks to align management interests with the company's and the shareholders' interests. The remuneration of PT Multimédia's directors, as determined by the Compensation Committee, takes into consideration the performance of the Board of Directors as a whole, the performance of PT Multimédia and benchmarks with other companies of a similar dimension and business.

        Although the compensation of non-executive directors includes only fixed compensation determined by the Compensation Committee, the compensation of executive directors includes both fixed compensation and variable compensation. The value of the fixed remuneration of the directors takes into account several aspects, including the time, effort, experience and skills used by the director at the service of the company. The determination of the variable component of compensation generally takes into consideration the analysis of three principle indicators: (a) consolidated revenues; (b) EBITDA (as defined by PT Multimédia) and EBITDA minus capital expenditures; and (c) variation of share prices on the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon.

        In the year ended December 31, 2006, PT Multimédia paid aggregate compensation of €1.2 million to its directors and €0.7 million to its executive officers who were not directors. Of the total amount of compensation paid in 2006, €0.3 million paid to directors and €0.1 million paid to executive officers who were not directors was based on performance and the ability to reach certain pre-defined goals that contribute to PT Multimédia's overall performance and the increase of the market price of its shares. However, the compensation paid to PT Multimédia's directors and executive officers in 2006 is not necessarily indicative of what PT Multimédia's management may receive in the future, since some members of PT Multimédia's management in 2006 held positions at both Portugal Telecom and PT Multimédia and were compensated primarily by Portugal Telecom.

        PT Multimédia does not have any option plan or other share incentive system.

        PT Multimédia does not have any pension or early retirement plan. After the spin-off, PT Multimédia employees will cease to benefit from pension plans of Portugal Telecom.

Corporate Governance

        The principal source of corporate governance standards in Portugal is the Portuguese Companies Code, which was enacted in 1987 and codified under the European Union directives on commercial law. The Portuguese Companies Code was subject to two major amendments during 2006 and 2007. An

115


amendment on March 29, 2006 mainly related to corporate governance matters. On January 17, 2007, a second amendment covered issues such as share capital reductions and disclosure of financial information. The Portuguese Securities Code and related rules complement the corporate governance provisions set forth in the Portuguese Companies Code by, inter alia: (i) requiring immediate disclosure of material information as well as the disclosure of qualifying holdings and certain periodic information, including financial statements and an annual corporate governance report and (ii) by establishing criminal and administrative sanctions for the breach of the material disclosure obligations, in particular providing for a market manipulation crime (covering insider trading and market manipulation).

        In response to the heightened focus world-wide on corporate governance in recent years, CMVM amended its "Recommendations on Corporate Governance for Listed Companies", or the "Recommendations," and the "Regulation on Corporate Governance for Listed Companies", or Regulation 7/2001, in 2003, 2005 and 2006. The Recommendations govern matters involving shareholder powers, rights and meetings, management and the tasks of non-executive and independent board members, committees, internal control systems and disclosure, remuneration and equity compensation plans, and whistleblowing policies. Regulation 7/2001 governs matter involving board independence criteria, the mandatory requirements of the annual corporate governance report and of a listed company's website, as well as disclosure on equity compensation plans and transactions entered into by senior management. It is expected that during the second half of 2007, new amendments to the aforementioned recommendations and Regulation 7/2001 will be approved by CMVM.

        The Portuguese Companies Code is legally binding on any company with a registered office in Portugal. The Portuguese Companies Code establishes corporate governance standards with respect to the following:

116



        The amendment to the Portuguese Commercial Companies Code described in the preceding section required companies to modify their corporate governance and supervision structures by June 30, 2007. At the General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 22, 2007, the shareholders of PT Multimédia approved several amendments to PT Multimédia's by-laws in order to adopt the corporate governance model described above. As a result, a new Audit Committee was created and a new

117


statutory auditor was elected. New members of the Compensation Committee were also elected at that meeting.

        In addition, to comply with the recent amendments to the Portuguese Commercial Companies Code, the shareholders amended PT Multimédia's by-laws to modify provisions relating to the exercise of votes by correspondence and by email, the right of shareholders to information and vacancies on the Board of Directors.

        The CMVM recommends that companies form committees at the supervisory board level to evaluate corporate governance structures and practices.

        PT Multimédia has benefited from the Corporate Governance Committee created by Portugal Telecom in July 2004. This committee was responsible for evaluating PT Multimédia's corporate governance principles and advising the PT Multimédia's Board of Directors on rules of conduct and corporate governance practices, including advising the board of directors of PT Multimédia as to the company's management structure and its relationships with shareholders and the market in order to prevent conflicts of interest and ensure the flow of information. The Corporate Governance Committee also monitors compliance with the Code of Ethics adopted by PT Multimédia. PT Multimédia expects to follow best practices for corporate governance and may in the future explore its own Corporate Governance Committee.

        Under Portuguese law, the executive management and board of directors are required to disclose either that they are in compliance with the recommendations set forth by the CMVM or which recommendations they have not followed and provide reasons therefor. This disclosure is located in PT Multimédia's Corporate Governance Report included in PT Multimédia's annual reports.

        Although the CMVM recommends that companies adopt a code of business ethics, under Portuguese law, there is no requirement for PT Multimédia to adopt, and post on its website, a code of business conduct and ethics for its directors, officers and employees. However, PT Multimédia expects to follow the general code of ethics adopted by Portugal Telecom, as well as the separate code of ethics for financial officers adopted by Portugal Telecom in December 2004.

        Portuguese law establishes that equity compensation plans shall be approved by shareholders. The CMVM recommends that the proposal submitted to the shareholders' meeting concerning the approval of plans for the allotment of shares and/or regarding options for the acquisition of shares for members of the administrative body and/or employees must include all details necessary for a correct evaluation of the equity compensation plan. The full text of the equity compensation plan, if available, must be attached to the proposal.

        Portuguese law does not explicitly require that the members of management or board of directors of a Portuguese company be independent, but it does establish a number of principles of independence for board members which, in case of non-compliance, shall be disclosed. These principles are designed to strengthen independence, to avoid conflicts of interest and to establish procedures and standards for related-party transactions.

118


        In PT Multimédia's case, the function of the chairman of its board of directors is currently independent from the function of its Chief Executive Officer. See "—Board of Directors and Executive Committee," and "—Executive Officers."

        In accordance with the criterion provided in the Regulation No. 7/2001 of the CMVM, as amended by CMVM Regulation No. 11/2003, by CMVM Regulation No. 10/2005 and by Regulation No. 3/2006, a non-executive board member is not considered independent if he is associated with specific groups of interest in the corporation or if he is somehow susceptible to having his analysis and impartiality affected. Non-executive administrators in this category are namely those who:

In addition to the circumstances mentioned above, under the regulations, the board of directors must also evaluate, with a reasonable basis, the independence of its members in light of other specific circumstances that may be applicable, such as other types of associations with groups with a specific interest.

        In light of the specific criteria above, the following board members of PT Multimédia are considered independent: Daniel Proença de Carvalho, Luis João Bordallo da Silva, Vitor Fernando da Conceição Gonçalves, José António de Melo Pinto Ribeiro and Nuno João Francisco Soares de Oliveira Silvério Marques.

        In response to the recent changes in the Portuguese Commercial Companies Code relating to corporate governance, PT Multimédia's shareholders amended the by-laws at the General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 22, 2007 to create the Audit Committee described above under "—Committees—Audit Committee." In accordance with the criteria provided in the Portuguese Commercial Companies Code, all of the following members of the Audit Committee are independent: Vitor Fernando da Conceição Gonçalves, José António de Melo Pinto Ribeiro and Nuno João Francisco Soares de Oliveira Silvério Marques.

        Under the Portuguese Companies Code, independent members of the Audit Committee are those persons who are not associated with a group with specific interests in the company and are not likely to

119



affect their impartiality when analyzing or making decisions. In particular, independent members may not (1) be holders or act on behalf of the holder of qualifying share holdings equal to or greater than 2% of the share capital of the company or (2) have been re-elected for more than two terms of office on a continuous or interrupted basis.

        Certain of the members of PT Multimédia's board of directors are affiliated with our significant shareholders. Manuel Fernando Moniz Espírito Santo Silva is a director of Banco Espírito Santo S.A. and António Domingues is a director of Banco BPI, S.A.

Certain Transactions

        In August 2005, PT Multimédia sold Lusomundo Serviços, SGPS, S.A., including 80.91% of Lusomundo Media, SGPS, S.A., to Olivedesportos—Publicidade, Televisão e Media, S.A., a corporation wholly owned by Controlinveste, SGPS, S.A., which in turn is controlled by the former board member of PT Multimédia, Joaquim Francisco Alves Ferreira de Oliveira.

        The transaction valued 100% of the capital and debts of Lusomundo Serviços, SGPS, S.A. at €300.4 million, assuming the ownership of 100% of all participated companies. Aiming at simplifying the process, Portugal Telecom had previously sold shares of its 5.94% equity participation in Lusomundo Media, SGPS, S.A. The amount PT Multimédia received from Controlinveste, SGPS, S.A. reached €173.8 million, from which €10.1 million was used to purchase shares of the 5.94% equity participation.

        PT Multimédia regularly enters into arm's-length financial transactions and agreements with credit institutions that are the holders of significant participations in its share capital.

        In addition, PT Multimédia is a shareholder of Sport TV Portugal, S.A. of which PPTV, Publicidade de Portugal e Televisão, S.A. ("PPTV") is also a shareholder—of which, the former board member of PT Multimédia, Joaquim Francisco Alves Ferreira de Oliveira, is a shareholder and board member. PT Multimédia regularly purchases rights to broadcast sporting events from PPTV and has not entered into other businesses with PPTV considered significant in economic terms for any of the parties involved.

        The Board of Directors of PT Multimédia is generally elected at a general meeting of shareholders from a slate proposed by certain of PT Multimédia's major shareholders in accordance with Portuguese law and practice. The proposal for the members of the Board of Directors elected in April 2007 was submitted by Portugal Telecom and Banco Espírito Santo, S.A. The proposal to elect Daniel Proença de Carvalho as Chairman of the Board of Directors in June 2007 was submitted by Caixa Geral de Depósitos, S.A., Banco Espírito Santo, S.A. and BPI Pensões, representing the pension fund of Banco BPI.

DESCRIPTION OF PT MULTIMÉDIA ORDINARY SHARES

General

        PT Multimédia is a limited liability holding company, organized as a sociedade gestora de participações sociais under the laws of the Republic of Portugal. PT Multimédia is registered in the Portuguese commercial registry under the entry number 8357 with the sole corporate purpose of holding participations in other companies as an indirect form of carrying out economic activities. Its head office is located at Avenida 5 de Outubro, No. 208, Lisboa, Portugal.

Share Buyback Program

        In 2004, PT Multimédia established a share buyback program, which included the issuance of put warrants for PT Multimédia ordinary shares. This program allowed shareholders who held 10 put warrants to sell one PT Multimédia share at a price of €21.50 per share in the case of physical settlement of the put warrants. Alternatively, shareholders could choose financial settlement of the put warrants and receive an amount in cash determined under the final terms and conditions approved by PT Multimédia. In March 2005, Portugal Telecom opted for the financial settlement of 90,304,850 (before the share split by PT Multimédia in 2005) put warrants for PT Multimédia ordinary shares. Under the final terms and conditions that were later on approved by PT Multimédia's board of directors, Portugal Telecom received a unit value of €0.307 per put warrant.

        At the annual general meeting of shareholders of PT Multimédia held on April 24, 2007, PT Multimédia's shareholders approved a share buyback program pursuant to which PT Multimédia's board of directors has the authority to cause it to purchase up to 10% of its share capital, net of any dispositions of shares acquired, for a period of up to 18 months. No shares have been purchased or are expected to be purchased prior to the spin-off effective date.

Share Capital

        PT Multimédia's share capital is currently €3,090,968.28, fully paid up and represented by 309,096,828 shares, par value €0.01 each. PT Multimédia may issue non-voting preferred shares up to 50% of its corporate capital.

        With the approval of the Audit Committee, the board of directors may increase the share capital of PT Multimédia on one or more occasions, up to a maximum of €20,000,000 in cash contributions. Certain terms of the share capital increase, such as the maximum amount of the share capital increase, the class of shares to be issued and whether any limitations will be imposed on the subscription rights of shareholders, must be approved by the shareholders at a general meeting.

        Shareholders who are, either directly or indirectly, engaged in an activity which competes with an activity being performed by companies in a controlling/controlled relationship with PT Multimédia may not hold more than 10% of the company's ordinary shares without first having received permission from the general meeting. The provision of public telecommunications services or network capacity, media, interactive or non-interactive content and electronic commerce are considered competing activities. Entities which have, either directly or indirectly, a holding of at least 10% of the share capital of a company engaged in any of the activities above, or in which an identical percentage is held by another entity, are considered to be indirectly engaged in a competing activity.

        The following ordinary shares may be redeemed, at their nominal or respective market value, if lower, and without the need for the consent of their respective holders: (i) those held without the prior authorization of the general meeting by a shareholder who is engaged in a competing activity and when such shares exceed the amount of 10% of the share capital; (ii) those held without the prior authorization of the general meeting by entities whose shares, pursuant to the terms of the Portuguese Securities Code, would be considered, in the case of a public take-over bid, to belong to a shareholder

123



who is engaged in a competing activity and when such shares exceed the amount of 10% of the share capital, with the redemption being proportional to the number of shares held by each of the entities in question. In that case, PT Multimédia must compensate the shareholder for the lesser of the nominal value of the canceled ordinary shares or their market value. The consideration payable to the holders of the redeemed shares shall be paid after they have certified that the shares are no longer recorded in the respective book-entry securities accounts and shall be paid in a lump sum or be deferred over a period of no more than two years from the date of redemption. The board of directors shall notify the respective shareholders that their shares shall be redeemed, within a maximum period of thirty days from the resolution to redeem the shares adopted at the general meeting.

        However, within five days of receipt of notice of such a decision by the shareholders' meeting, a shareholder may request the permission of the board to reduce the number of ordinary shares held to 10% or less of PT Multimédia's share capital by sale or other disposition of the excess ordinary shares within 30 days. By making such request, such shareholder renounces, pending the conclusion of such sale or disposition, all voting and pre-emptive subscription rights connected to the excess ordinary shares.

        Before June 2007, shareholders who were deemed competitors under the terms described above could not hold more than 5% of the company's ordinary shares without first having received permission from the general meeting. The definition of competitor and the provisions in the by-laws concerning the redemption of the shares held above such ownership limit were identical to the current terms, but the relevant limits were 5%, as opposed to the current limit of 10%.

        In addition, before June 2007, under PT Multimédia's by-laws, votes issued by a shareholder above 5% of the voting rights corresponding to the share capital were not counted.

        However, in an effort to create conditions for a new and stable shareholder base in PT Multimédia after the spin-off, at the General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 20, 2007, the shareholders of PT Multimédia amended the company's by-laws in order to increase the limit of ownership of shares by a competitor of PT Multimédia to 10% of the share capital and to increase the limit to the counting of votes issued by a shareholder to 10% of the voting rights corresponding to the share capital.

Voting Rights

        Shareholders are entitled to one vote per each 400 shares held, and shareholders having less than such number of shares may form a group so that, jointly and arranging to be represented by one of the group's members, they make up the number of shares required to exercise voting rights. Matters are decided at a shareholders' meeting by a simple majority of votes. However, resolutions for the amendment of the articles of association, reorganization, dissolution or merger of PT Multimédia and certain other matters mandated by Portuguese law require the approval of two-thirds of votes cast at a shareholders' meeting, as described below.

        Under the Portuguese Companies Code, a company may not vote its treasury shares. Treasury shares will not be counted towards a quorum or for purposes of determining a majority of votes cast. The purchase by PT Multimédia of its own shares generally must be approved by its shareholders in accordance with the articles of association. Under Portuguese law, a Portuguese company may not, except under certain limited circumstances, purchase more than 10% of its nominal share capital as treasury shares. Currently, PT Multimédia has no treasury shares.

        For information on the exercise of voting rights at PT Multimédia's shareholders' meetings, see "—Shareholders' Meetings" below.

124


Pre-Emptive Rights

        Upon the issuance of additional ordinary shares by PT Multimédia for cash, all holders of ordinary shares have a right to subscribe proportionately for such shares. The pre-emptive rights of shareholders to subscribe for shares are freely transferable.

Liquidation Rights

        The ordinary shares have pro rata rights to share in PT Multimédia's assets upon its liquidation.

Changes in Shareholders' Rights

        The rights of holders of PT Multimédia ordinary shares may only be changed by a shareholder resolution amending the articles of association. Resolutions for the amendment of the articles of association require the approval of two-thirds of votes cast at a shareholders' meeting, as described below.

Shareholders' Meetings

        General meetings shall be held at least once per year before the end of May and whenever a request for the convening thereof is submitted to its respective chairman by the board of directors or Audit Committee or by shareholders representing at least 5% of the share capital. Shareholders' meetings may be held at PT Multimédia's principal office or, when the principal office does not have satisfactory conditions for the meeting, at another location in Portugal. The general meeting shall be convened with a minimum advance notice of thirty days with a precise indication of the issues to be dealt with by means of a publication of a notice on the Ministry of Justice's website (http://publicacoes.mj.pt), the CMVM's website (www.cmvm.pt) and PT Multimédia's website (www.pt-multimedia.pt). In most matters, general meetings may resolve by the majority of the votes cast regardless of the number of shareholders that are present on a first or second call. However, in certain matters, such as amendments to the by-laws, reorganization, dissolution, merger and share capital increases, a quorum of not less than one-third of the share capital entitled to vote must be present or represented for the meeting to resolve on those matters and resolutions on these matters may only be approved on a first call by a majority of two-thirds of the votes cast. If the quorum requirement is not met at the first meeting, then those matters may be approved on a later day at a second call of such meeting, regardless of the number of shareholders present or represented, but only provided that such resolutions are approved by (i) a two-thirds majority of the votes cast at the meeting or (ii) a simple majority of the votes cast if at least one half of the share capital is present or represented.

Transfer of Ordinary Shares, Limitations on Shareholdings

        There are no restrictions on the transferability of the ordinary shares, other than certain limitations on ownership.

        PT Multimédia's articles of association contain limitations on ownership, as well as mechanisms that may prevent a change in control of PT Multimédia. The articles of association provide that shareholders who are, either directly or indirectly, engaged in an activity which competes with an activity being performed by companies in a controlling/controlled relationship with PT Multimédia may not hold more than 10% of the company's ordinary shares without first having received permission from the general meeting. The provision of public telecommunications services or network capacity, media, interactive or non-interactive content and electronic commerce are considered competing activities. Entities which have, either directly or indirectly, a holding of at least 10% of the share capital of a company engaged in any of the activities above, or in which an identical percentage is held by another entity, are considered to be indirectly engaged in a competing activity.

125



        The following ordinary shares may be redeemed, at their nominal or respective market value, if lower, and without the need for the consent of their respective holders: (i) those held without the prior authorization of the general meeting by a shareholder who is engaged in a competing activity and when such shares exceed the amount of 10% of the share capital; (ii) those held without the prior authorization of the general meeting by entities whose shares, pursuant to the terms of the Portuguese Securities Code, would be considered, in the case of a public take-over bid, to belong to a shareholder who is engaged in a competing activity and when such shares exceed the amount of 10% of the share capital, with the redemption being proportional to the number of shares held by each of the entities in question. In that case, PT Multimédia must compensate the shareholder for the lesser of the nominal value of the canceled ordinary shares or their market value. The consideration payable to the holders of the redeemed shares shall be paid after they have certified that the shares are no longer recorded in the respective book-entry securities accounts and shall be paid in a lump sum or be deferred over a period of no more than two years from the date of redemption. The board of directors shall notify the respective shareholders that their shares shall be redeemed, within a maximum period of thirty days from the resolution to redeem the shares adopted at the general meeting.

        However, within five days of receipt of notice of such a decision by the shareholders' meeting, a shareholder may request the permission of the board to reduce the number of ordinary shares held to 10% or less of PT Multimédia's share capital by sale or other disposition of the excess ordinary shares within 30 days. By making such request, such shareholder renounces, pending the conclusion of such sale or disposition, all voting and pre-emptive subscription rights connected to the excess ordinary shares.

        Holders of PTM ADSs will be treated as holders of PT Multimédia ordinary shares represented by the ADS under these provisions.

        There are no restrictions under Portuguese law with regard to the percentage of shares that a non-Portuguese resident may own in PT Multimédia.

Change of Control Provisions

        The articles of association contain limitations on ownership, as well as mechanisms that may prevent a change in control of PT Multimédia. Under the articles of association, the voting rights exercised by a single shareholder are limited to a maximum of 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital. As a result, no single shareholder can exercise voting rights, in his own name or on behalf of other shareholders, representing more than 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital. The articles of association also provide that no shareholder performing, directly or indirectly, an activity which competes with any of PT Multimédia's activities may hold or control ordinary shares representing in the aggregate more than 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital, without the authorization of a shareholders' meeting.

Disclosure of Shareholdings

        The articles of association do not require shareholders to disclose their shareholdings. However, under the Portuguese Securities Code, any person making a purchase or sale of shares that results in that person either owning or no longer owning at least 2%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3 or 90% of PT Multimédia's voting rights must notify PT Multimédia, the managing entity of the regulated market Eurolist by Euronext Lisbon and the CMVM within three calendar days.

Rights of Minority Shareholders to Receive Fair Consideration

        Portuguese law provides for the payment of fair consideration to minority shareholders for their shares under certain circumstances. For example, if a shareholder's interest in PT Multimédia were to exceed one-third or one-half of the voting rights of PT Multimédia, the shareholder would have to launch a mandatory tender offer, for consideration, for all the shares and other securities issued by PT

126



Multimédia that grant the right to their subscription or acquisition. However, the launching of a tender offer would not be required if such shareholder were to exceed the threshold of one-third of the voting rights but were able to prove to the CMVM that it neither had control of PT Multimédia nor was involved with PT Multimédia in a group relationship.

        In addition, any person who, following a tender offer for the securities of a public company, achieves or exceeds 90% of the voting rights of the company and 90% of the voting rights covered by the tender offer, may acquire the remaining shares of the company for fair consideration in the succeeding three months.

        The Portuguese Securities Code also provides that, following a tender offer for the securities of a public company in which an offeror acquires at least 90% of the voting rights of the company and 90% of the voting rights covered by the tender offer, the remaining shareholders may sell their shares to the controlling shareholder within the succeeding three months. If a shareholder wishes to exercise this right, the shareholder must send a written invitation to the controlling shareholder to make a proposal within eight days to acquire its shares. In the event that the controlling shareholder does not make the above-described proposal in time or the proposal is not considered satisfactory, the remaining shareholders may submit to the CMVM a declaration of the compulsory sale of their shares for fair consideration.

        The fair consideration required in the situations described above may not be less than the highest of (1) the highest price paid by the offeror or related parties for the acquisition of securities of the same class in the six months immediately prior to the beginning of the relevant transaction and (2) the average price of these securities on a regulated market during the same period.

Certain Provisions with Respect to Board Members

        Agreements between PT Multimédia and its directors must be authorized by a resolution of the board of directors and a favorable opinion of the Audit Committee. PT Multimédia's directors are not permitted to vote on resolutions relating to agreements in which they are materially interested or with respect to which they have a conflict of interest. PT Multimédia's directors do not have the power to vote their compensation, which is determined by the Compensation Committee. PT Multimédia's directors may not receive loans from PT Multimédia, except that directors may receive one month of compensation in advance. There are no age-limit requirements for the retirement of board members. No minimum shareholding is required for qualification as a member of the board.

127



DESCRIPTION OF PT MULTIMÉDIA AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES

        The Bank of New York, as Depositary, will register and deliver the PTM ADSs. Each PTM ADS will represent one ordinary share (or the right to receive one ordinary share) deposited in the Lisbon, Portugal office of Banco Espírito Santo, the custodian for the Depositary. Each PTM ADS will also represent any other securities, cash or other property which may be held by the Depositary. The Bank of New York's principal executive office is located at One Wall Street, New York, New York 10286. The Depositary's corporate trust office at which the PTM ADSs will be administered is located at 101 Barclay Street, New York, New York 10286, United States.

        You may hold PTM ADSs either directly by having an American Depositary Receipt, also referred to as an ADR, which is a certificate evidencing a specific number of ADSs registered in your name, or indirectly through your broker or other financial institution. If you hold PTM ADSs directly, you are a PTM ADS holder. This description assumes you hold your PTM ADSs directly. If you hold the PTM ADSs indirectly, you must rely on the procedures of your broker or other financial institution to assert the rights of PTM ADS holders described in this section. You should consult with your broker or financial institution to find out what those procedures are.

        As a PTM ADS holder, PT Multimédia will not treat you as one of PT Multimédia's shareholders and you will not have shareholder rights. Portuguese law governs shareholder rights. The Depositary will be the holder of the shares underlying your ADSs. As a holder of ADSs, you will have ADS holder rights. A deposit agreement among PT Multimédia, the Depositary and you, as an ADS holder, and the beneficial owners of ADSs sets out ADS holder rights as well as the rights and obligations of the Depositary. New York law governs the deposit agreement and the form of American Depositary Receipt.

        The following is a summary of the material provisions of the agreement. Because it is a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For more complete information, you should read the entire deposit agreement and the ADS. A form of the deposit agreement has been filed as an exhibit to a registration statement on Form F-6 filed by PT Multimédia and may be obtained from the SEC's Internet website or at its address indicated in "Available Information." You may also obtain a copy of the deposit agreement by contacting the Depositary at the address above or the telephone number set forth under "The Spin-Off—Additional Questions" or by contacting PT Multimédia at the address or phone number set forth in "Available Information."

Dividends and Other Distributions

How will you receive dividends and other distributions on the ordinary shares?

        The Bank of New York has agreed to pay to you the cash dividends or other distributions it or Banco Espírito Santo receives on ordinary shares or other deposited securities after deducting its fees and expenses. You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of ordinary shares your PTM ADSs represent.

Cash

        The Bank of New York will convert any cash dividend or other cash distribution PT Multimédia pays on the ordinary shares into U.S. dollars, if it can do so on a reasonable basis and can transfer the U.S. dollars to the United States. If that is not possible or if any governmental approval is needed and cannot be obtained, the deposit agreement allows the Depositary to distribute the foreign currency only to those PTM ADS holders to whom it is possible to do so. It will not invest the foreign currency and it will not be liable for any interest.

        Before making a distribution, any withholding taxes or other governmental charges that must be paid will be deducted. See "The Spin-Off—Tax Considerations—Portuguese Tax Considerations." It will

128



distribute only whole U.S. dollars and cents and will round fractional cents to the nearest whole cent. If the exchange rates fluctuate during a time when The Bank of New York cannot convert the foreign currency, the PTM ADS holder may lose some or all of the value of the distribution.

Shares

        The Bank of New York may distribute new PTM ADSs representing any ordinary shares PT Multimédia distributes as a dividend or free distribution, and it will hold the foreign currency it cannot convert for the account of the PTM ADS holders who have not been paid. The Bank of New York will only distribute whole PTM ADSs. It will sell the PT Multimédia ordinary shares which would require it to issue fractional PTM ADS and distribute the net proceeds in the same way as it does with cash. If The Bank of New York does not distribute additional PTM ADSs, each PTM ADS will also represent the new ordinary shares.

Rights to Receive Additional Shares

        If PT Multimédia offers holders of PT Multimédia ordinary shares any rights to subscribe for additional ordinary shares or any other rights, The Bank of New York may make these rights available to PTM ADS holders. If the Depositary decides it is not legal and practical to make the rights available but that it is practical to sell the rights, the Depositary will use reasonable efforts to sell the rights and distribute the proceeds in the same way as it does with cash. The Depositary will allow rights that are not distributed or sold to lapse. In that case, the PTM ADS holders will receive no value for them.

        If the Depositary makes rights available to you, it will exercise the rights and purchase the shares on your behalf. The Depositary will then deposit the shares and deliver PTM ADSs to you. It will only exercise rights if you pay it the exercise price and any other charges the rights require you to pay.

        U.S. securities laws may restrict transfers and cancellation of the PTM ADSs represented by shares purchased upon exercise of rights. For example, you may not be able to trade these PTM ADSs freely in the United States. In this case, the Depositary may deliver restricted Depositary shares that have the same terms as the PTM ADSs described in this section except for changes needed to put the necessary restrictions in place.

Other Distributions

        The Bank of New York will send to PTM ADS holders anything else PT Multimédia distributes on deposited securities by any means it thinks is legal, fair and practical. If it cannot make the distribution in that way, The Bank of New York has a choice. It may decide to sell what PT Multimédia distributed and distribute the net proceeds in the same way as it does with cash. Or, it may decide to hold what PT Multimédia distributed, in which case PTM ADSs will also represent the newly distributed property.

        The Bank of New York is not responsible if it decides that it is unlawful or impractical to make a distribution available to any PTM ADS holders. PT Multimédia has no obligation to register PTM ADSs, PT Multimédia ordinary shares, rights or other securities under the Securities Act. PT Multimédia also has no obligation to take any other action to permit the distribution of PTM ADSs, PT Multimédia ordinary shares, rights or anything else to PTM ADS holders. This means that PTM ADS holders may not receive the distributions PT Multimédia makes on its ordinary shares or any value for them if it is illegal or impractical for PT Multimédia to make them available to PTM ADS holders.

Deposit, Withdrawal and Cancellation

How are ADSs issued?

        The Bank of New York will issue PTM ADSs if the holder of PT Multimédia ordinary shares or its broker deposit ordinary shares or evidence of rights to receive ordinary shares by electronic transfer to

129



the Lisbon, Portugal office of the custodian, Banco Espirito Santo. Upon payment of its fees and expenses and of any taxes or charges, such as stamp taxes, stock transfer taxes or fees, The Bank of New York will register the appropriate number of PTM ADSs in the names the holder of PT Multimédia ordinary shares requests and will deliver the PTM ADSs to or upon the order of the person or persons that made the deposit.

Can ADS holders withdraw the deposited securities?

        The PTM ADS holder may surrender its PTM ADSs at The Bank of New York's corporate trust office. Upon payment of its fees and expenses and of any taxes or charges, such as stamp taxes or stock transfer taxes or fees, The Bank of New York will deliver the underlying PT Multimédia ordinary shares and any other deposited securities underlying the ADSs to you or a person you designate either by electronic transfer or by other means approved by PT Multimédia in accordance with Portuguese law. The Bank of New York may require the PTM ADS holder to order that dividends and other distributions with respect to deposited securities be delivered at its office in New York. At the PTM ADS holder's request, risk and expense, The Bank of New York will deliver any cash or other property (other than rights) and certificates for the underlying shares or other deposited securities at its corporate trust office.

Voting Rights

How do PTM ADS Holders Vote?

        PTM ADS holders may instruct The Bank of New York to vote the ordinary shares underlying such holder's PTM ADSs. The Bank of New York will notify such holder of upcoming votes and arrange to deliver PT Multimédia voting materials to such holder. The materials will (1) describe the matters to be voted on and (2) explain how the PTM ADS holder, on a certain date, may instruct The Bank of New York to vote the ordinary shares or other deposited securities underlying such holder's PTM ADSs as he or she directs. For instructions to be valid, The Bank of New York must receive them on or before the date specified. Otherwise, you won't be able to exercise your right to vote unless you withdraw the shares. However, you may not know about the meeting enough in advance to withdraw the shares.

        The Bank of New York will try, as far as practical, subject to the law of Portugal and the provisions of PT Multimédia's articles of association, to vote or to have its agents vote (or to grant a discretionary proxy to a person designated by PT Multimédia to vote) the PT Multimédia ordinary shares or other deposited securities as the PTM ADS holder instructs. The Bank of New York will only vote or attempt to vote as the PTM ADS holder instructs, except that, in most cases, if such holder does not give instructions to The Bank of New York, they may vote or have their agents vote the PT Multimédia ordinary shares or other deposited securities in favor of proposals supported by the PT Multimédia board of directors, or, when practicable and permitted, give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by PT Multimédia; provided, that no such favorable vote or discretionary proxy shall be given with respect to any proposal as to which PT Multimédia informs the Depositary (and PT Multimédia agrees to provide such information promptly in writing) that (x) PT Multimédia does not wish such proxy given, (y) substantial opposition, as determined by PT Multimédia in its sole discretion, exists with respect to such proposal or (z) such proposal would, as determined by PT Multimédia in its sole discretion, materially and adversely affect the rights of owners. The Bank of New York can vote, or to have its agents vote, the PTM ADSs by aggregating in blocks of 400 PTM ADSs, or such other number equal to the number of PT Multimédia ordinary shares specified by PT Multimédia in writing to The Bank of New York from time to time to correspond to one vote.

        PT Multimédia cannot assure its PTM ADS holders that they will receive the voting materials in time to ensure that they can instruct The Bank of New York to vote their PT Multimédia ordinary

130



shares or other deposited securities. In addition, The Bank of New York and its agents are not responsible for failing to carry out voting instructions or for the manner of carrying out voting instructions. This means that PTM ADS holders may not be able to exercise their right to vote and there may be nothing such holders can do if their PT Multimédia ordinary shares or other deposited securities are not voted as such holders requested.

        Under the deposit agreement, PT Multimédia agrees, without increasing its obligations or potential liability to the owners or beneficial owners of PTM ADRs, to provide notice, to the extent practicable, of any meeting of holders of PT Multimédia ordinary shares or other deposited securities to the Depositary sufficiently in advance of such meeting in order to enable the Depositary or its nominee to vote or cause to be voted any such shares or deposited securities in accordance with the terms of the deposit agreement.

Limitations on Voting More than 10% of PT Multimédia Ordinary Shares

        Under Portuguese law and PT Multimédia's articles of association, no single PT Multimédia shareholder (other than the Portuguese State and certain entities owned by the Portuguese State) can exercise voting rights, in his or her own name or on behalf of other PT Multimédia shareholders, representing more than 10% of PT Multimédia's share capital. Holders of PTM ADSs will be treated as holders of PT Multimédia ordinary shares for purposes of determining the applicability of the 10% limitation on voting rights. Voting instructions of an individual PTM ADS holder will not be accepted by The Bank of New York to the extent that such votes exceed the 10% limitation. In addition, PT Multimédia will not accept voting instructions of a PTM ADS holder as votes of PT Multimédia ordinary shares to the extent that such votes, together with any other votes cast by such PTM ADS holder as a holder of PT Multimédia ordinary shares, exceed the 10% limitation on voting rights.

It may apply payments owed to you or sell deposited securities represented by your ADSs to pay any taxes owed and you will remain liable for any deficiency. If the Depositary sells deposited securities, it will, if appropriate, reduce the number of ADSs to reflect the sale and pay to you any proceeds, or send to you any property, remaining after it has paid the taxes.

132



Reclassifications, Recapitalizations and Mergers

If PT Multimédia:   Then:

Amendment and Termination

How may the deposit agreement be amended?

        PT Multimédia may agree with the Depositary to amend the deposit agreement and the ADRs without your consent for any reason. If an amendment adds or increases fees or charges, except for taxes and other governmental charges or expenses of the Depositary for registration fees, facsimile costs, delivery charges or similar items, or prejudices a substantial right of ADS holders, it will not become effective for outstanding ADSs until 30 days after the Depositary notifies ADS holders of the amendment. At the time an amendment becomes effective, you are considered, by continuing to hold your ADSs, to agree to the amendment and to be bound by the ADRs and the deposit agreement as amended.

How may the deposit agreement be terminated?

        The Depositary will terminate the deposit agreement at PT Multimédia's direction by mailing notice of termination to the ADS holders then outstanding at least 90 days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination. The Depositary may also terminate the deposit agreement by mailing notice of termination to PT Multimédia and the ADS holders then outstanding if 90 days have passed since the Depositary told PT Multimédia it wants to resign but a successor depositary has not been appointed and accepted its appointment.

        After termination, the Depositary and its agents will do the following under the deposit agreement but nothing else: collect dividends and other distributions on the deposited securities, sell rights and other property, and deliver shares and other deposited securities upon cancellation of ADSs. One year after termination, the Depositary may sell any remaining deposited securities by public or private sale. After that, the Depositary will hold the money it received on the sale, as well as any other cash it is holding under the deposit agreement for the pro rata benefit of the ADS holders that have not surrendered their ADSs. It will not invest the money and has no liability for interest. The Depositary's only obligations will be to account for the money and other cash. After termination, PT Multimédia's only obligations will be to indemnify the Depositary and to pay fees and expenses of the Depositary that PT Multimédia agreed to pay.

133



Limitations on Obligations and Liability

Limits on PT Multimédia's Obligations and the Obligations of the Depositary; Limits on Liability to Holders of ADSs

        The deposit agreement expressly limits PT Multimédia's obligations and the obligations of the Depositary. It also limits PT Multimédia's liability and the liability of the Depositary. PT Multimédia and the Depositary:

        In the deposit agreement, PT Multimédia's and the Depositary agree to indemnify each other under certain circumstances.

Requirements for Depositary Actions

        Before the Depositary will deliver or register a transfer of an ADS, make a distribution on an ADS, or permit withdrawal of shares, the Depositary may require:

        The Depositary may refuse to deliver ADSs or register transfers of ADSs generally when the transfer books of the Depositary or the foreign registrar or PT Multimédia's transfer books are closed or at any time if the Depositary or PT Multimédia thinks it advisable to do so.

Your Right to Receive the Shares Underlying your ADRs

        You have the right to cancel your ADSs and withdraw the underlying shares at any time except:

        This right of withdrawal may not be limited by any other provision of the deposit agreement.

134



Pre-release of ADSs

        The deposit agreement permits the Depositary to deliver ADSs before deposit of the underlying shares. This is called a pre-release of the ADSs. The Depositary may also deliver shares upon cancellation of pre-released ADSs (even if the ADSs are canceled before the pre-release transaction has been closed out). A pre-release is closed out as soon as the underlying shares are delivered to the Depositary. The Depositary may receive ADSs instead of shares to close out a pre-release. The Depositary may pre-release ADSs only under the following conditions: (1) before or at the time of the pre-release, the person to whom the pre-release is being made represents to and agrees with the Depositary in writing that it or its customer (a) owns the shares or ADSs to be deposited, (b) assigns all beneficial rights, title and interest in the shares of ADS, as the case may be, to the Depositary in its capacity as such and for the benefit of the owners, and (c) will not take any action with respect to such shares of ADSs, as the case may be, that is inconsistent with the transfer of beneficial ownership (including, without the consent of the Depositary, disposing of such shares of ADSs, as the case may be), other than in satisfaction of such pre-release; (2) the pre-release is fully collateralized with cash or other collateral that the Depositary considers appropriate; (3) the Depositary must be able to close out the pre-release on not more than five business days' notice and (4) subject to such further indemnities and credit regulations as the Depositary deems appropriate. In addition, the Depositary will limit the number of ADSs that may be outstanding at any time as a result of pre-release, although the Depositary may disregard the limit from time to time, if it thinks it is reasonably appropriate to do so, and may, with the prior written consent of PT Multimédia, change such limit for purposes of general application. The Depositary will also set dollar limits with respect to pre-release transactions on a case-by-case basis as the Depositary deems appropriate.

Transfers

        The Bank of New York will keep books at its corporate trust office in New York for the registration and transfer of PTM ADSs. These books will be open at all reasonable times for inspection by PTM ADS holders, as long as the inspection is not for the purpose of communicating with PTM ADS holders in the interest of a business or a purpose other than PT Multimédia's business or a matter related to the deposit agreement or the PTM ADSs.

Reports and Information

        PT Multimédia will send certain reports in English to The Bank of New York. At PT Multimédia's written request, The Bank of New York will mail such reports to the PTM ADS holders. PT Multimédia will also provide to The Bank of New York, in English, all notices of shareholders' meetings and other reports and communications that are made generally available to PT Multimédia shareholders. The Bank of New York will make these reports, notices and communications available to PTM ADS holders if requested in writing by PT Multimédia and will mail to PTM ADS holders copies of these reports, notices and communications in the form given or to be given to PT Multimédia shareholders.

135



ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES AGAINST FOREIGN PERSONS

        PT Multimédia is a limited liability company (sociedade anónima) organized under the laws of the Portuguese Republic. All of its directors and executive officers, as well as certain experts named in the documents incorporated by reference, are resident outside the United States, and all or a substantial portion of PT Multimédia's assets and the assets of such persons are located outside the United States, namely in Portugal. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons or to enforce against them judgments obtained in U.S. courts predicated upon civil liabilities under the U.S. federal securities laws. Therefore, you may need to enforce U.S. courts' judgments in the Portuguese courts. In such an event, Portuguese law subjects the enforceability of foreign sentences to a High Court revision procedure, which is merely formal and aims exclusively to ensure respect for the due process of law. Based on the opinion of Garrigues Portugal—Sucursal SL, our Portuguese counsel, there is doubt as to the enforceability in Portugal, whether in original actions or in actions for enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts, of liabilities predicated solely upon the U.S. federal securities laws.


INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

        The consolidated financial statements of Portugal Telecom as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007 included in this information statement have been audited by Deloitte & Associados, SROC S.A.

        The consolidated financial statements of PT Multimédia as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2006 and as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007 included in this information statement have been audited by Deloitte & Associados, SROC S.A.

136



SUMMARY OF CERTAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN IFRS AND U.S. GAAP (UNAUDITED)

        PT Multimédia applies IFRS, as adopted by the European Commission for use in the European Union, including all interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee as of December 31, 2005. PT Multimédia has applied IFRS 1—First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, with January 1, 2004 as the transition date for the presentation of these financial statements. For PT Multimédia, there are no differences between IFRS as adopted by the EU and IFRS as published by the International Accounting Standards Board. The opening IFRS consolidated balance sheet was prepared as of January 1, 2004. IFRS 1 requires that an entity develop accounting policies based on the standards and related interpretations effective at the reporting date of its first annual IFRS consolidated financial statements. These accounting policies must be applied as of the date of transition to IFRS and throughout all periods presented in the first IFRS consolidated financial statements.

        Some differences exist between IFRS and U.S. GAAP that may be material to the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2004 prepared for the transition to IAS/IFRS, as well as for the consolidated financial statements of PT Multimédia at December 31, 2005 and for the six months ended June 30, 2006. PT Multimédia has not prepared financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP or prepared a reconciliation of its financial statements to U.S. GAAP and, accordingly, cannot offer any assurances that the differences described below would, in fact, be the accounting principles creating the most significant differences between the financial statements prepared under IFRS and under U.S. GAAP. In addition, PT Multimédia cannot estimate the net effect that applying U.S. GAAP would have on its results of operations or financial position. You must rely upon your own examination of PT Multimédia, the terms of the spin-off and the financial information in this information statement and in the documents incorporated by reference. You should also consult your own professional advisers for an understanding of the differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP, and how those differences might affect the consolidated financial statements of PT Multimédia.

        The following summary has not been audited and does not include all differences that exist between IFRS and U.S. GAAP. It contains certain significant differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP existing as of December 31, 2005 and not differences that may have existed throughout the period covered by the financial statements. The organizations that promulgate IFRS and U.S. GAAP have projects ongoing that could have a significant impact on future comparisons such as this. This description is not intended to provide a comprehensive listing of all the differences specifically related to PT Multimédia or the industries in which it operates. U.S. GAAP is generally more restrictive and comprehensive than IFRS regarding recognition and measurement of transactions, account classification and disclosure requirements. No attempt has been made to identify all disclosure, presentation or classification differences that would affect the manner in which transactions and events are presented in the financial statements of PT Multimédia or the notes thereto. This summary is not intended, does not include and cannot cover the pro forma financial information presented in the information statement.

Exceptions and Exemptions under IFRS 1 First-Time Adoption

        When financial statements are prepared for the first time under U.S. GAAP for the purpose of an initial public offering, all periods presented should reflect the retrospective application of U.S. GAAP as if the reporting entity had always been reporting in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

        In contrast, pursuant to IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS effective as of the reporting date (i.e. the end of the latest period covered by financial statements or by an interim financial report) should be reflected retrospectively in its opening balance sheet as of the date of transition to IFRS (i.e. January 1, 2004 for PT Multimédia) throughout all periods presented in its first IFRS financial statements, except for certain mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions.

137



        Under IFRS 1, PT Multimédia elected to use the exemption relating to business combinations, which creates an on-going difference with U.S. GAAP. In PT Multimédia's financial statements business combinations prior to January 1, 2004 are not restated in the opening balance sheet under IFRS while under U.S. GAAP all business combinations should be restated, thus creating differences in the carrying value of acquired assets and liabilities and related goodwill that will in turn affect future gains and losses on assets and liabilities, depreciation charges and impairment charges.

Accounting for Goodwill Recognized in a Business Combination

        Under IFRS 3 Business Combinations, goodwill is no longer amortized from January 1, 2004 and the opening balance sheet as of the date of transition to IFRS reflects the accumulated depreciation of goodwill based on former Portuguese GAAP.

        Under U.S. GAAP, prior to the adoption in June 2001 of SFAS No. 141 Business Combinations and SFAS No. 142 Goodwill and Intangible Assets, or "SFAS 142," all acquired identifiable intangible assets and goodwill were required to be amortized over a period not to exceed forty years. SFAS No. 142 discontinued the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful life arising from business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and from January 1, 2002 for other business combinations and requires assessment of potential impairment on a yearly basis or when certain events occur.

Accounting for In-process Research and Development Recognized in a Business Combination

        Under IFRS 3, in-process research and development is recognized as an asset separate from goodwill if it meets the definition of an intangible asset i.e. (i) the asset meets the identifiable criterion and (ii) its fair value can be measured reliably.

        Under U.S. GAAP, costs that are assigned to acquired intangible assets to be used in particular research and development projects and that have no alternative future use should be charged to expense at the acquisition date.

Impairment of Goodwill, Intangible Assets Other than Goodwill and Other Long-lived Assets

        Under IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, or "IAS 36," impairment is recognized to the extent the carrying value of the assets, including intangible assets with an indefinite useful life, or of the cash generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated together with other assets exceeds its recoverable amount. A cash generating unit is defined as the smallest group of assets that includes the asset tested for impairment and that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

        The recoverable amount of an asset or of a cash generating unit is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell, defined as the amount obtainable from the sale of the asset or cash-generating unit in an arm's length transaction between knowledgeable willing parties, less the costs of disposal, and its value in use, defined as the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset or cash-generating unit. The impairment loss relating to a cash generating unit, if any, is recognized first to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and second to the other assets of the cash generating unit pro rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the cash-generating unit (without reducing the carrying amount of an asset below the highest of its fair value less cost to sell, if determinable, or its value in use, if determinable, and zero).

        Under IAS 36, if intangible assets, including intangible assets with an indefinite useful life, or other property, plant and equipment that are held for use do not generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, such intangible assets or

138



property, plant and equipment are tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which they belong.

        Under IAS 36, an impairment charge of an asset other than goodwill is reversed if, and only if, there has been an increase in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized.

        Under SFAS 142, goodwill should be tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. Accordingly, goodwill, together with all assets and liabilities which are to be considered for the purpose of determining the fair value of the reporting unit, should be assigned to reporting units defined as either operating segments or one level below an operating segment, which we refer to as "components," depending on whether a component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available and for which segment management regularly reviews the operating results of that component unless such component has similar economic characteristics with other components. Components with similar economic characteristics should be aggregated into one reporting unit.

        The carrying value of each reporting unit is then compared to its fair value in order to determine whether this reporting unit has been impaired. For each reporting unit, the carrying amount of which exceeds its fair value, goodwill impairment, if any, is measured by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit to its identifiable assets and liabilities, including the value of any unrecognized intangible assets, in a manner similar to a purchase accounting. This allocation results in an implied fair value of goodwill. Any excess of the carrying amount of recorded goodwill over the implied fair value of goodwill is recorded as a definitive write-off of the carrying value of goodwill.

        Under SFAS 142, intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are required to be tested for impairment separately from goodwill.

        Indefinite life intangibles are required to be tested at least annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Impairment tests are performed by comparing the fair value of the intangible asset to its carrying amount. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess, as a definitive write-off of the carrying amount of the intangible asset.

        Under SFAS No. 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, intangible assets with definite useful lives and other long-lived assets (including property, plant and equipment) that are held for use are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value might not be recoverable. For purposes of recognition and measurement of impairment loss, a long-lived asset should be grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. Then the carrying value of the asset/group of assets is compared to the sum of the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the long-lived asset/group and its eventual disposal. If the carrying value of the asset/group of assets exceeds the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the long-lived asset/group and its eventual disposal, the asset (group) is not recoverable and an impairment loss is recognized equal to the excess of the carrying value of the asset/group over its fair value as a definitive write-off of the carrying value of the asset.

        Fair value is measured based on quoted market prices in an active market, or absent such quoted market prices, prices for similar assets, as well as other valuation techniques such as the present value of estimates of future cash flows to be generated by the asset/group of assets incorporating assumptions that marketplace participants would use in their estimates of such fair value.

139



Revenue Recognition

        General principles under IAS 18 Revenue are consistent with U.S. GAAP, but IFRS contains limited detailed or industry-specific guidance.

        Under U.S. GAAP, there are a number of different prescriptive rules from different sources addressing industry-specific or specific transactions issues on a case-by-case basis, which, subject to detailed analysis, may give rise to differences.

Consolidation

Subsidiaries

        Under U.S. GAAP, the usual condition for consolidating a financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest and as a general rule, ownership, either directly or indirectly, of over 50% of the outstanding voting shares constitutes control.

        Under IFRS, consolidation of subsidiaries over which a parent company exercises control is required. Control is considered as being exercised in cases where a parent is in a position to manage the subsidiary's financial and operating policies with a view to benefiting from its business.

Special Purpose Entities

        Under U.S. GAAP, certain variable interest entities are to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties.

        Under IFRS, consolidation of special purpose entities, or "SPEs," is required where the substance of the relationship indicates that an entity controls the SPE.

Accounting for Minority Interests

        Under IFRS, minority interests are recorded as a separate caption in shareholders' equity.

        Under U.S. GAAP, minority interests are classified within liabilities and excluded from shareholders' equity.

Accounting for Retirement, Pensions and Other Post-retirement Employee Benefits

        Under IAS 19 Employee Benefits, there is no requirement to record a minimum retirement or pension liability based on the accumulated benefit obligation.

        Under U.S. GAAP, SFAS No. 87 Employers' Accounting for Pensions requires the recognition of a minimum liability on the basis of the accumulated benefit obligation, i.e. the actuarial present value of the benefits attributed by the pension benefit formula to employee service rendered prior to the balance sheet date, taking into account current and past, but not future compensation benefits, when the accumulated benefit obligation is greater than the fair value of the plan's assets. The amount of the minimum liability to be recognized is the unfunded accumulated pension liability against an intangible asset to the extent of the amount, if any, of unrecognized prior service cost and for the excess, if any, through other comprehensive income (in shareholders' equity).

Income Taxes

        Although the general approach under U.S. GAAP and IFRS is similar, there are a number of differences. Differences, amongst others, relate to deferred tax on goodwill, deferred tax on investments

140



in subsidiaries, post acquisition recognition of acquiree's tax losses and recognition of previously unrecognized tax losses.

        Under U.S. GAAP, the use of substantively enacted tax rates is prohibited.

        Under IFRS, deferred tax is calculated using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted.

Accounting for Financial Instruments, Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Definition of a Financial Derivative—Notional Amounts

        Under IAS 39, the definition of a derivative does not refer to the existence of an explicit notional amount.

        Under U.S. GAAP, a derivative instrument is a contract that has certain characteristics, including one or more underlyings and one or more notional amounts or payment provisions or both.

First Time Adoption and Hedging Transactions

        Under IFRS, with respect to amounts deferred under hedging relationships prior to the adoption of IAS 39 on January 1, 2005 that do not qualify as hedges under current requirements under IFRS, hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively and such amounts are recognized or amortized to income depending on the formerly hedged transaction.

        Under U.S. GAAP, derivative instruments that would not qualify as hedges under FAS 133 requirements on the basis of contemporaneous documentation would be reported independently as assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in income for all periods presented.

Investments in Equity Securities

        Under IFRS, all equity investments, except investments in consolidated subsidiaries and investments accounted for under the equity method should be measured at fair value unless the fair value cannot be reliably measured.

        Under U.S. GAAP, SFAS No. 115 Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, all investments in equity securities, except investments in consolidated subsidiaries and investments accounted for under the equity method, that have readily determinable fair value should be measured at fair value. Thus, non-listed equity investments that are not accounted for under the equity method should be accounted for at historical cost.

Provision for Risks and Charges, Restructuring Costs and Other General Provisions

Restructuring Costs

        Under IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, or "IAS 37," the general recognition criteria for provisions should be satisfied before a provision is recognized for restructuring costs. In addition, management must have a detailed plan for the restructuring and must have created a valid expectation in those affected that the plan will be carried out (i.e. the detailed plan must identify the business or relevant part of the business, location, function and approximate number of employees who will receive termination compensation. A formal detailed public announcement of the restructuring will generally create a valid expectation in other parties such as customers, suppliers and employees that the restructuring will take place.

        Under U.S. GAAP, SFAS No. 146 Accounting for Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities, or "SFAS 146," even when management has committed itself to a detailed exit plan, it does not follow

141



automatically that the costs of the exit plan may be provided for. Instead, each cost is examined individually to determine when it is incurred. SFAS 146 allows the costs of involuntary employee termination to be recognized when management has committed to a detailed plan for termination, identified the number, function and location of the employees expected to be terminated and communicated this plan to the employees.

        The employee termination costs would be recognized immediately when employees are terminated within the minimum retention period. Otherwise, the costs would be recognized over the future service period. In addition, liabilities for other exit costs are recognized when they are incurred, which is normally when the goods or services associated with the activity are received. Consequently, other exit costs will probably be recognized later than under IAS 37.

Discounting of Provisions

        Under IAS 37, where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of a provision should be the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation.

        Under U.S. GAAP, provisions are generally not discounted.

Others

Reversal of Inventory Write-Down

        Under IAS 2 Inventories, inventories are written-down if the cost becomes higher than net realizable value. An assessment of the net realizable value is made at each reporting period. When there is clear evidence of an increase of the net realizable value because of changes in economic circumstances, the amount of the write-down is reversed even if the inventories remain unsold.

        Under U.S. GAAP, Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43 Restatement and Revision of Accounting Research Bulletinsstates that following a write-down "such reduced amount is to be considered the cost for subsequent accounting purposes," and it is therefore not permitted to reverse a former write-down before the inventory is either sold or written off.

Guarantees

        Under IFRS, guarantees given by PT Multimédia are disclosed as off balance-sheet commitments.

        Under U.S. GAAP, in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 45 Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, upon issuance or modification of a guarantee on or after January 1, 2003, PT Multimédia should recognize a liability at the time of issuance or material modification for the estimated fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee.

Introduction

1.
For the purposes of Portuguese Securities Market Code we hereby present our Auditors' Report on the consolidated financial information included in the Board of Directors' Report and the consolidated financial statements of Portugal Telecom, SGPS, S.A. ("the Company") and its subsidiaries for the six month period ended 30 June 2007, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet that presents a total of 13,468,873,401 Euros and shareholders' equity of 2,888,721,971 Euros, including a net profit attributable to shareholders of the Company of 429,084,610 Euros, the consolidated statements of profit and loss by nature, of cash flows and of recognised income and expenses for the six month period then ended and the corresponding notes.

Responsibilities

2.
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for: (i) the preparation of consolidated financial statements that present a true and fair view of the financial position of the group of companies included in the consolidation, the consolidated results of their operations, the consolidated cash flows and the consolidated statement of recognised income and expenses; (ii) the preparation of historical financial information in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted in the European Union, which is complete, true, timely, clear, objective and licit, as required by the Portuguese Securities Market Code; (iii) the adoption of adequate accounting policies and criteria and the maintenance of appropriate system of internal control; and (iv) the disclosure of any significant facts that have influenced the operations of the companies included in the consolidation, their financial position and results of operations.

An audit includes verifying, on a sample basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements and assessing the significant estimates, based on judgments and criteria defined by the Board of Directors, used in their preparation. An audit also includes verifying the consolidation procedures and that the financial statements of the companies included in the consolidation have been appropriately audited, assessing the adequacy of the accounting policies used, their uniform application and their disclosure, taking into consideration the circumstances, verifying the applicability of the going concern concept, verifying the adequacy of the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements and assessing if, in all material respects, the consolidated financial information is complete, true, timely, clear, objective and licit. An audit also includes verifying that the consolidated financial information included in the consolidated Board of Directors' Report is consistent with the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for expressing our opinion.

(i)
In the first half of 2007 and 2006, this item includes a cost of Euro 9 million and a gain of Euro 2 million, respectively, which were transferred to the income statement due to its receivable and payment. In addition to these amounts, this caption includes gains of Euro 4 million and Euro 16 million in the first half of 2007 and 2006, respectively, related to the changes in the fair value of these derivatives, in connection with the increase in market interest rates.

(ii)
The gain recorded in the first half of 2007 is mainly related to the appreciation of the Real against the Euro from 2.8118 as at 31 December 2006 to 2.6024 as at 30 June 2007, while losses recorded in the first half of 2006 are basically related with the devaluation of the Real against the Euro from 2.744 as at 31 December 2005 to 2.7829 as at 30 June 2006.

(iii)
This caption includes mainly other gains or losses recognised directly in shareholders' equity, as well as current income tax related to those and other gains or losses recognised directly in shareholders' equity. In the first half of 2007 and 2006, current income taxes recognised directly in shareholders' equity amounted to Euro 4,437,430 and Euro 2,667,726, respectively (Note 27), and are related to the tax effect on the dividends received from the equity swaps over PT's own shares.

Portugal Telecom, SGPS, SA

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

As at 30 June 2007

(Amounts stated in Euros, except where otherwise stated)

1.    Introduction

a) Parent company

        Portugal Telecom, SGPS, SA (formerly Portugal Telecom, SA, "Portugal Telecom") and subsidiaries ("Group", "Portugal Telecom Group", or "the Company"), are engaged in rendering a comprehensive range of telecommunications and multimedia services in Portugal and other countries, including Brazil.

        Portugal Telecom was incorporated on 23 June 1994, under Decree-Law 122/94, as a result of the merger, effective 1 January 1994, of Telecom Portugal, SA ("Telecom Portugal"), Telefones de Lisboa e Porto (TLP), SA ("TLP") and Teledifusora de Portugal, SA ("TDP"). On 12 December 2000, Portugal Telecom, SA changed its name to Portugal Telecom, SGPS, SA, and became the holding company of the Group.

        As a result of the privatization process, between 1 June 1995 and 4 December 2000, Portugal Telecom' s share capital is mainly owned by private shareholders. On 30 June 2007, the Portuguese State owned, directly or indirectly, 7.75% of the total ordinary shares and all of the A Shares (Note 40.1) of Portugal Telecom.

        The shares of Portugal Telecom are traded on the Euronext Lisbon Stock Exchange and on the New York Stock Exchange.

b) Corporate purpose

Continued operations

        Portugal Telecom Group is engaged in rendering a comprehensive range of telecommunications services in Portugal and abroad, including Brazil.

        In Portugal, fixed line services are rendered by PT Comunicações, SA ("PT Comunicações"), under the provisions of the Concession Agreement entered into with the Portuguese State on 20 March 1995 in accordance with Decree-Law 40/95, for an initial period of thirty years, subject to renewal for subsequent periods of fifteen years. On 11 December 2002, according to the terms of the Modifying Agreement to the Concession Contract, PT Comunicações acquired the property of the Basic Network of Telecommunications and Telex ("Basic Network").

        Data transmission services are rendered through PT Prime—Soluções Empresariais de Telecomunicações e Sistemas, SA ("PT Prime"), which is also an Internet Service Provider ("ISP") for large clients.

        ISP services for residential clients are rendered through PT.com—Comunicações Interactivas, SA ("PT.com"), which also provides services relating to the conception, design and exhibit of publicity and information space on Internet portals.

        Mobile services in Portugal are rendered by TMN—Telecomunicações Móveis Nacionais, SA ("TMN"), under a GSM license granted by the Portuguese State in 1992 (period of 15 years), renewed in 2006 until 16 March 2022, and a UMTS license obtained in 19 December 2000 (period of 15 years).

        In Brazil, the Group renders mobile telecommunications services through Brasilcel NV ("Brasilcel" or "Vivo"), a joint venture incorporated in 2002 by Portugal Telecom (through PT Móveis, SGPS, SA—

F-8



"PT Móveis") and Telefónica (through Telefónica Móviles, SA) to join the mobile operations of each group. Currently, Brasilcel, through its company Vivo, SA, provides mobile services in the Brazilian states of São Paulo, Paraná, Santa Catarina, Rio de Janeiro, Espírito Santo, Bahia, Sergipe, Rio Grande do Sul, and eleven states in the Midwestern and Northern regions of Brazil. On July 2007, Vivo has signed a stock purchase agreement with Telpart Participações S.A. ("Telpart") to acquire control of Telemig Celular Participações S.A. ("Telemig Participações") and Tele Norte Celular Participações S.A. ("Tele Norte Participações"), mobile operators in the Brazilian State of Minas Gerais and in the region of Amazónia.

Discontinued operations

        PT Multimédia—Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, SA ("PT Multimedia") is the Group's subsidiary for multimedia operations. Through its subsidiary TV Cabo Portugal, SA ("TV Cabo"), PT Multimedia renders cable and satellite television services and voice and internet access services in mainland Portugal, Madeira and Azores. PT Multimedia also renders other multimedia services in Portugal, namely the editing and selling of DVD and movies through Lusomundo Audiovisuais, SA ("Lusomundo Audiovisuais") and the distribution and exhibition of movies through Lusomundo Cinemas, SA ("Lusomundo Cinemas"). At the last Annual General Meeting of Portugal Telecom held on 27 April 2007, it was approved the free allotment (spin-off) of all ordinary shares of PT Multimedia held by Portugal Telecom to its shareholders. Pursuant to this decision, the assets, liabilities and results of this business were presented in the consolidated financial statements under the caption "Discontinued operations" (Note 19).

        The consolidated financial statements for the six months period ended 30 June 2007 were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue on 21 September 2007.

2.    Basis of presentation

        Consolidated financial statements are presented in Euros, which is the currency of the majority of the Portugal Telecom's operations. Financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated to Euros according to the accounting principles described in Note 3.q).

        The consolidated financial statements of Portugal Telecom are prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union ("EU"), and include all interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee ("IFRIC") as at 30 June 2007. For Portugal Telecom, there are no differences between IFRS as adopted by the EU and IFRS published by the International Accounting Standards Board.

        Consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the continuity of operations, based on the accounting records of all subsidiaries (Exhibit I).

        The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods (Note 3).

F-9



a) Consolidation principles

Controlled entities

        Portugal Telecom has fully consolidated the financial statements of all controlled entities. Control is achieved where the Group has the majority of the voting rights or has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity. In any case, where the Group does not have the majority of the voting rights but in substance controls the entity, the financial statements of the entity are fully consolidated (See Exhibit I).

        The interest of any third party in the equity and net income of fully consolidated companies is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated income statement, under the caption "Minority interests" (Note 20).

        Losses applicable to the minorities in excess of the minority's interest in the subsidiary's equity are allocated against the interest of the Group, except to the extent that the minority has a binding obligation and is able to make an additional investment to cover the losses. Any future gains reported by the subsidiary are allocated against the interest of the Group, until the excess losses recognised by the Group are covered.

        From 1 January 2004, assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of an acquired subsidiary are measured at fair value at acquisition date. Any excess amount to the identifiable net assets is recognised as goodwill. If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, the difference is recognised as a gain in the net income for the period the acquisition occurs. Minority interests are presented proportionally to the fair value of identifiable net assets.

        The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed during the period are included in the consolidated income statement from the effective date of the acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.

        All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in the consolidation process. Gains obtained in intra-group transactions are also eliminated in the consolidation process.

        Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to adjust their accounting policies in line with those adopted by the Group.

Interests in joint ventures

        Portugal Telecom has proportionally consolidated the financial statements of jointly controlled entities beginning on the date the joint control is effective. Under this method, assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the entity are added, on a proportional basis, to the corresponding consolidated caption. Financial investments are classified as jointly controlled entities if the joint control agreement clearly demonstrates the existence of joint control.

        All transactions and balances with jointly controlled entities are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the joint venture.

        Jointly controlled entities are presented in Exhibit III.

F-10



Investments in associates

        An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policies of the entity but not to control or jointly control those policies.

        Financial investments in associated companies are accounted for under the equity method (Exhibit II). Under this method, investments in associated companies are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost, adjusted periodically for the Group's share in the results of the associated company, recorded as part of financial results under the caption "Equity in earnings and losses of associated companies" (Note 30). In addition, financial investments are adjusted for any impairment losses that may occur.

        Losses in associated companies in excess of the cost of acquisition are not recognised, except where the Group has assumed any commitment to cover those losses.

        Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the associate recognised at the date of acquisition is recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is assessed annually for impairment as part of the investment. If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of identifiable net assets, the difference is recorded as a gain in the net income for the period the acquisition occurs.

        Dividends received from associated companies are recorded as a reduction in the value of financial investments.

        Profits and losses occurring in transactions with associated companies are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the associate, and recorded against the corresponding financial investment.

Non-current assets held for sale and disposal groups

        Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale or as discontinued operation when the asset or the group of assets will be disposed of, by sale or otherwise, together as a group in a single transaction, and liabilities directly associated with those assets will be transferred in the transaction. This condition is regarded as met, only when: (i) the subject transaction is highly probable and the asset or group of assets are available for immediate sale or to be transferred in its present condition; (ii) the Group has assumed a commitment to the subject of transaction; and (iii) the transaction is expected to be completed within one year. Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of the assets' previous carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

Goodwill

        Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary, jointly controlled or associated entity recognised at the date of acquisition, in accordance with IFRS 3. Considering the exception of IFRS 1, the Group used the provisions of IFRS 3 only for acquisitions that occurred after

F-11



1 January 2004. Goodwill related to acquisitions made up to 1 January 2004 was recorded at the carrying amount of those acquisitions as of that date, and is subject to annual impairment tests thereafter.

        Goodwill related to foreign investments is carried at the reporting currency of the investment, being translated to Euros at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange gains or losses are recognised in the Statement of Recognised Income and Expenses under the caption "Cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments".

        Goodwill related to associated companies is recognised under the caption "Investments in group companies" (Note 30) and goodwill related to subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities is recognized under the caption "Intangible assets" (Note 32). Goodwill is not amortised, but tested, on an annual basis, for impairment losses, which are recognised in net income in the period they occur, and cannot be reversed in a subsequent period.

        On disposal of a subsidiary, jointly controlled entity or associate, the goodwill allocated to that investment is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal.

b) Changes in the consolidated Group

        During 2006 the main change in the consolidation Group was the inclusion of Mobile Telecommunications Limited ("MTC"), following the acquisition of a 34% stake in the share capital of this company in September 2006. In connection with this transaction, Portugal Telecom entered into an agreement with the remaining shareholders of MTC, under which Portugal Telecom has the power to set and control the financial and operating policies of this company. Accordingly, Portugal Telecom consolidated MTC's assets, liabilities and results as from the date the control has been transferred. PT's consolidated financial statements include MTC's assets and liabilities as at 30 June 2007 and 31 December 2006 and its results in the six months period ended 30 June 2007.

        During the first half of 2007, there were no significant changes in the consolidated Group.

3.    Summary of significant accounting policies, judgments and estimates

a)    Current classification

        Assets to be realized and liabilities to be settled within one year from the date of the balance sheet are classified as current.

b)    Inventories

        Inventories are stated at average acquisition cost. An adjustment to the carrying value of inventories is recognised when the net realizable value is lower than the average cost, recorded in net income of the period the loss occurs under the caption "Cost of products sold". Usually these losses are related to technological obsolescence and lower rotation.

F-12


c)     Tangible assets

        Tangible assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any, and investment subsidies. Acquisition cost includes: (1) the amount paid to acquire the asset; (2) direct expenses related to the acquisition process; and (3) the estimated cost of dismantling or removal of the assets (Notes 3.g and 38). Under the exception of IFRS 1, revaluation of tangible assets made in accordance with Portuguese legislation applying monetary indices, prior to 1 January 2004, was not adjusted and was included as the deemed cost of the asset for IFRS purposes.

        Tangible assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis from the month they are available for use, during its expected useful life. The amount of the asset to be depreciated is reduced by any residual estimated value. The depreciation rates correspond to the following estimated average economic useful lives:

 
  Years
Buildings and other constructions   3–50
Basic equipment:    
  Network installations and equipment   4–20
  Switching equipment   5–10
  Telephones, switchboards and other   5–10
  Submarine cables   15–20
  Satellite stations   15
  Other telecommunications equipment   3–10
  Other basic equipment   4–20
Transportation equipment   4–8
Tools and dies   4–10
Administrative equipment   3–10
Other tangible fixed assets   3–10

        Estimated losses resulting from the replacement of equipments before the end of their economic useful lives are recognised as a deduction to the corresponding asset's carrying value, against results of the period, as well as any impairment of these assets. The cost of recurring maintenance and repairs is charged to net income as incurred. Costs associated with significant renewals and betterments are capitalized if any future economic benefits are expected and those benefits can be reliably measured. Depreciation periods correspond to the period of the expected benefits.

        The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and is recognised in the income statement under the caption "Losses and gains on disposals of fixed assets, net" when occurred.

F-13


d)    Intangible assets

        Intangible assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets are recognised only if any future economic benefits are expected and those benefits as well as the cost of the asset can be reliably measured.

        Intangible assets include mainly goodwill (Note 2.a), telecommunications licenses and related rights and software licenses.

        Internally-generated intangible assets, namely research and development expenditures, are recognised in net income when incurred. Development expenditures can only be recognised initially as an intangible asset if the Company demonstrates the ability to complete the project and put the asset in use or make it available for sale.

        Intangible assets, except goodwill, are amortised on a straight-line basis from the month they are available for use, during the following periods:

Telecommunications licenses:    

•    Band A and Band B licenses held by Vivo

 

Period of the license

•    Property of the Basic Network held by PT Comunicações

 

Period of the concession
(until 2025)

•    UMTS license owned by TMN

 

Period of the license
(until 2015)

Software licenses

 

3–6

Other intangible assets

 

3–8

        As a result of the application of the purchase price allocation methodology to the acquisition of MTC, undertaken at the end of 2006, Portugal Telecom has identified an intangible asset related to the agreement entered into with the other shareholders of MTC, which allows Portugal Telecom to control this company. This agreement does not have a definite useful life and therefore this intangible asset is not amortized but is subject to annual impairment tests.

e)     Investment property

        Investment property includes primarily buildings and land held to earn rentals and/or capital appreciation, and not for use in the normal course of the business (exploration, service render or sale).

        Investment property is stated at its acquisition cost plus transaction costs and reduced by accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Expenditures incurred (maintenance, repairs, insurance and real estate taxes) and any income obtained are recognised in income statement of the period.

F-14



f)     Impairment of tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill

        The Group performs impairment tests for its tangible and intangible assets if any event or change results in an indication of impairment. In case of any such indication, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss.

        Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The primary cash-generating units identified in the Group correspond to the wireline, mobile and multimedia (classified as a discontinued operation) businesses in Portugal and mobile in Brazil. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value in use. In assessing fair value less cost to sell, the amount that could be received from an independent entity is considered, reduced by direct costs related with the sale. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risk specific to the asset.

        If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss statement.

        Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior periods. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in net income.

g)     Provisions and contingent liabilities

        Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where any of the above mentioned criteria does not exist, or is not accomplished, the Group discloses the event as a contingent liability, unless the cash outflow is remote.

        Provisions for restructuring are only recognised if a detail and formal plan exists and if the plan is communicated to the related parties.

        Provisions for dismantling and removal costs are recognised from the day the assets are in use and if a reliable estimate of the obligation is possible (Notes 3.c) and 38). The amount of the provision is discounted, being the corresponding effect of time recognised in net income, under the caption "Net interest expense".

        Provisions are updated on the balance sheet date, considering the best estimate of the Group's management.

h)    Pension benefits

        Under several defined benefit plans, PT Comunicações, PT Sistemas de Informação, SA ("PT SI") and DCSI—Dados, Comunicações e Soluções Informáticas, Lda ("DCSI") are responsible to pay to a

F-15



group of employees a pension or a pension supplement. In order to fund these obligations, various pension funds were incorporated by PT Comunicações (Note 9.1).

        The amount of the Group's liabilities with respect to pensions and pension supplements is estimated based on actuarial valuations, using the "Projected Unit Credit Method". The Group has elected to apply the option in IAS 19 to recognise actuarial gains and losses directly in shareholders' equity.

        Prior years' service gains or losses related to vested rights are recognised when they occur and those related to unvested rights are recognised on a straight-line basis until they become vested, which usually corresponds to the retirement date.

        Pension and pension supplement liabilities stated in the balance sheet correspond to the difference between the Projected Benefit Obligation ("PBO") related to pensions deducted by the fair value of pension fund assets and any prior years' service gains or losses not yet recognised.

        Contributions made by the Group to defined contribution pension plans are recognised in net income when incurred.

i)     Post retirement health care benefits

        Under a defined benefit plan, PT Comunicações, PT SI and DCSI are responsible to pay, after the retirement date, health care expenses to a group of employees and relatives. This health care plan is managed by Portugal Telecom—Associação de Cuidados de Saúde ("PT-ACS"). In 2004, the Group established PT Prestações—Mandatária de Aquisições e Gestão de Bens, SA ("PT Prestações") to manage an autonomous fund to finance these obligations (Note 9.2).

        The amount of the Group's liabilities with respect to these benefits after retirement date is estimated based on actuarial valuations, using the "Projected Unit Credit Method". The Group has elected to apply the option in IAS 19 to recognise actuarial gains and losses directly in shareholders' equity.

        Prior years' service gains or losses related to vested rights are recognised when occur. Otherwise they are recognised on a straight-line basis until they become vested, which usually corresponds to the retirement date.

        Accrued post retirement health care liabilities stated in the balance sheet correspond to the present value of obligations from defined benefit plans, deducted by the fair value of fund assets and any prior years' service gains or losses not yet recognised.

j)     Pre-retirement, early retirement and suspended employees

        The Group recognizes a liability for the payment of salaries up to the date of retirement and for pensions, pension supplements and health care expenses after that date, in relation to all employees that are under a suspended contract agreement, or that have pre-retired or early retired. This liability is recognised in the net income under the caption "Curtailment costs, net" when the Group signed the suspended contracts, or allows for pre-retirement or early retirement (Note 9).

F-16



k)    Grants and subsidies

        Grants and subsidies from the Portuguese Government and from the European Union are recognised at fair value when the receivable is probable and the Company can comply with all requirements of the subsidy's program.

        Grants and subsidies to training and other operating activities are recognised in net income when the related expenses are recognised.

        Grants and subsidies to acquire assets are deducted from the carrying amount of the related assets.

l)     Financial assets and liabilities

        Financial assets and liabilities are recognised on the Group's balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

F-17


F-18


F-19


m)   Own work capitalized

        Certain internal costs (materials, work force and transportation) incurred to build or produce tangible assets are capitalized only if:

        The amounts capitalized are deducted from the corresponding operating costs incurred and no internally generated margin is recognised. When any of the above mentioned criteria is not met, the expense is recognised in net income.

        Financial costs are not capitalised and expenses incurred during investigation are recognised in net income when incurred.

n)    Leases

        Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases (Note 12). The classification of leases depends on the substance of the transaction and not on the form of the contract.

        Assets acquired under finance leases and the corresponding liability to the lessor, are accounted for using the finance method, in accordance with the lease payment plan (Note 34). Interest included in the rents and the depreciation of the assets are recognised in net income in the period they occur.

        Under operating leases, rents are recognised on a straight-line basis during the period of the lease (Note 13).

o)    Taxation

        Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in accordance with IAS 12.

F-20



        Portugal Telecom and PT Multimedia have adopted the tax consolidation regime in Portugal (currently known as the special regime for the taxation of groups of companies). The provision for income taxes is determined on the basis of the estimated taxable income for all the companies in which they hold at least 90% of the share capital and that are domiciled in Portugal and subject to Corporate Income Tax (IRC). The remaining Group companies not covered by the tax consolidation regimes of Portugal Telecom and PT Multimedia are taxed individually based on their respective taxable income, at the applicable tax rates.

        The tax currently payable is based on taxable income for the period, and the deferred tax is based on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities of the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method.

        Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is reasonably likely that taxable income will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be used, or when there are deferred tax liabilities whose reversal is expected in the same period in which the deferred tax assets are reverse. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow for all or part of the asset to be recovered.

        Deferred tax is charged to net income, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to shareholders' equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in shareholders' equity.

p)    Revenue recognition

        Revenues from fixed line telecommunications are recognised at their gross amounts when services are rendered. Billings for these services are made on a monthly basis throughout the month. Unbilled revenues or revenues not billed by other operators but accrued or incurred as of the date of the financial statements are recorded based on estimates. Differences between accrued amounts and the actual unbilled revenues, which ordinarily are not significant, are recognised in the following period.

        Revenues from international telecommunications services are divided with the operators in the country in which calls are terminated based on traffic records of the country of origin and rates established in agreements with the various telecommunications operators. The operator of the country of origin of the traffic is responsible for crediting the operator of the destination country and, if applicable, the operators of the transit countries.

        Revenues from telephone line rentals are recognised as an operating lease in the period to which they apply, under the caption "Other revenues".

        Revenues from ISP services result essentially from monthly subscription fees and telephone traffic when the service is used by customers. These revenues are recognised when the service is rendered.

F-21



        Advertising revenues from telephone directories and related costs are recognised in the period in which the directories are effective. PT Comunicações has a contract with Páginas Amarelas whereby the latter is responsible for production, publishing and distribution of PT Comunicações's telephone directories, as well as for selling advertising space in the directories. The total cost to be paid by PT Comunicações for such services is set at a fixed 64% of its gross revenues from the sale of advertising space in telephone directories. Revenues from the sale of advertising space are invoiced directly by PT Comunicações to its corporate clients during the one-year advertising period. These revenues are recognized in earnings on a monthly basis during the period for the respective directory.

        Revenues from mobile telephony services result essentially from the use of the wireless network, by customers or other operators. The moment in which revenues are recognised and the corresponding caption are as follows:

        Revenues from bundling services or products are allocated to each of its components based on its fair value and are recognised separately in accordance with the methodology adopted to each component.

        Revenues from the Pay-TV, Broadband and Telephony business segment of PT Multimedia result essentially from and are recognised as follows: (i) monthly subscription fees for the use of the service are recognised in the period the service is rendered; (ii) advertising placed on the cable television channels are recognised in the period the advertising is placed; (iii) rental of equipment is recognised in the period it is rented; and (iv) sale of equipment is recognised at the moment of sale.

        Revenues from the exhibition of films result from the sale of cinema tickets, and revenues from the distribution of films result from the sale to other cinema operators of distribution rights acquired by Lusomundo Audiovisuais from film producers and distributors. These revenues are recognised in the period of the exhibition or in the period of the sale of the rights.

q)    Foreign currency transactions and balances

        Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Euros at the exchange rates prevailing at the time the transactions are made. At the balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted to reflect the exchange rates prevailing at such date. The resulting gains or losses on foreign exchange transactions are recognised in net income. Exchange differences on non-monetary items, including goodwill, and on monetary items representing an

F-22



extension of the related investment and where settlement is not expected in the foreseeable future, are recognized directly in shareholders' equity under the caption "Foreign currency translation adjustments", and included in the Statement of Recognised Income and Expenses.

        The financial statements of subsidiaries operating in other countries are translated to Euros, using the following exchange rates:


        The effect of translation differences is recognised in shareholders' equity under the caption "Foreign currency translation adjustments" and included in the Statement of Recognised Income and Expenses.

        The Group adopted the exception under IFRS 1 relating to cumulative translation adjustments as of 1 January 2004 and transferred this amount from "Foreign currency translation adjustments" to "Accumulated earnings". As from 1 January 2004, the Group has been recognizing all translation adjustments directly in shareholders' equity and therefore these amounts are transferred to net income only if and when the related investments are disposed of.

r)     Borrowing costs

        Borrowing costs related to loans are recognised in net income when incurred. The Group does not capitalise any borrowing costs related to loans to finance the acquisition, construction or production of any asset.

s)     Cash flow statement

        The consolidated statement of cash flows is prepared under IAS 7, using the direct method. The Group classifies all highly liquid investments purchased, with original maturity of three months or less, as cash and cash equivalents. The "Cash and cash equivalents" item presented in the statement of cash flows also includes overdrafts, classified in the balance sheet under "Short-term debt".

        Cash flows are classified in the statement of cash flows according to three main categories, depending on their nature: (1) operating activities; (2) investing activities; and (3) financing activities. Cash flows from operating activities include primarily collections from clients, payments to suppliers, payments to employees, payments relating to post retirement benefits and net payments relating to income taxes and indirect taxes. Cash flows from investing activities include primarily the acquisitions and disposals of investments in associated companies, dividends received from associated companies and purchase and sale of property, plant and equipment. Cash flows from financing activities include

F-23



primarily borrowings and repayments of debt, payments of lease rentals, payments relating to interest and related expenses, acquisition and sale of treasury shares and payments of dividends to shareholders.

t)     Subsequent events (Note 47)

        Events that occur after the balance sheet date that could influence the value of any asset or liability as of that date are considered when preparing the financial statements for the period. Those events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, if material.

u)    Critical judgments and estimates

        In preparing the financial statements and accounting estimates herein, management has made use of its best knowledge of past and present events and used certain assumptions in relation to future events. The most significant accounting estimates reflected in the consolidated financial statements, are as follows:


        Estimates used are based on the best information available during the preparation of consolidated financial statements, although future events, neither controlled by the Company nor foreseeable by the Company, could occur and have an impact on the estimates. Changes to the estimates used by management, that occur after the date of the consolidated financial statements are recognised in net income, in accordance with IAS 8, using a prospective methodology.

        The main estimates used by management are included in the corresponding notes to the consolidated financial statements.

4.    Changes in accounting policies and estimates

        During the first half of 2007, no changes occurred in the accounting policies used by the Group, when compared to those ones used in 2006.

7.    Segment reporting

        Portugal Telecom's primary basis of business segmentation is related to the nature of the services rendered and the type of technology used by its operating companies. This is the manner in which the Board of Directors oversee and control the business and also the manner in which financial information is internally organized and communicated. Accordingly, the business segments from the continuing operations as at 30 June 2007 and 2006 are as follows:

        The Wireline segment includes PT Comunicações, PT Prime, PT.com and PT Corporate.

        In relation to the mobile businesses, Portugal Telecom has identified two different business segments, the "Domestic Mobile" and "Brazilian Mobile", due to the differences between licenses and technologies of both. In terms of technology, GSM/UMTS is the technology used by TMN, while CDMA is the main technology used by Vivo. Also, the telecommunications markets in Portugal and Brazil are substantially different in terms of economic and regulatory environment, classes of customers, suppliers and marketing strategies, which support PT's decision to establish the two different businesses.

        Portugal Telecom's secondary basis of segmentation is geographical, under which it distinguishes three segments:

(i)
The increase in services rendered and in direct costs is primarily explained by the termination of the partial "Bill & Keep" interconnection regime in Brazil, which led to the gross recognition of interconnection revenues and costs (Note 10).

(ii)
The reduction in this caption is mainly explained by (1) the impact of a one-off provision recorded in the first half of 2006 (Euro 30 million) related to billing problems following the migration to a unified platform, and also (2) a lower level of provisions related to subscription fraud and premature insolvency.

(iii)
The reduction in net interest expenses is primarily related to the decrease in the average net debt of Vivo in the first half of 2007, as compared with the same period of last year.

(iv)
The reduction in this caption is primarily explained by financial taxes incurred in the first half of 2006 related to Vivo's debt restructuring occurred in that period.

9.    Post retirement benefits

9.1.  Pension benefits

        As referred to in Note 3.h, PT Comunicações is responsible for the payment of pensions and pension supplements to retired, suspended and active employees. These liabilities, which are estimated based on actuarial valuations, are as follows:

        PT SI and DCSI employees who were transferred from PT Comunicações and Marconi and were covered by any of the pension plans described above maintain the right to such benefits.

F-35



        The actuarial valuations for these plans, as at 30 June 2007 and 2006 and as at 31 December 2006, were computed based on the projected unit credit method and considered the following actuarial assumptions and rates:

 
  30 Jun 07
  31 Dec 06
  30 Jun 06
 
Rate of return on long-term fund assets   6.00 % 6.00 % 6.00 %
Pensions liabilities' discount rate   5.25 % 4.75 % 5.00 %
Salaries liabilities' discount rate   4.75 % 4.25 % 4.25 %
Salary growth rate   2.25 % 2.25 % 3.00 %
Pension growth rate   1.75 % 1.75 % 2.00 %
Inflation rate   1.75 % 1.75 % 2.00 %

        The discount rate for pension liabilities was computed based on long-term yield rates of high-rating bonds as of the balance sheet date for maturities comparable to those liabilities.

        The rate of return on long-term fund assets was estimated based on historical information on the return of portfolio assets, the expected portfolio in future years (defined in accordance with the expected maturity of the liabilities) and certain financial market performance indicators usually considered in market analysis.

        Salary growth rate was established considering a 50 bp yield above inflaction. This assumption is in line with PT Comunicações' policy for wages and salaries.

        The demographic assumptions considered as at 30 June 2007 and 2006 and 31 December 2006 were as follows:

        Mortality table:

Employees (while in active service):    
  Males   AM (92)
  Females   AF (92)
Pensioners:    
  Males   PA (90)m adjusted
  Females   PA (90)f adjusted

        Demographic assumptions considered by Portugal Telecom are based on mortality tables generally accepted for actuarial valuation purposes, with these tables being periodically adjusted to reflect the mortality experience occurred in the closed universe of the plan participants.

        During the first half of 2007 Dec-Law 187/2007 was published, which introduced some changes to pension formulas in order to guarantee the long-term financial sustainability of the Portuguese social

F-36



security system. These changes are also applied to some of PT Comunicações plans, which led to a reduction in the total pension liability. In addition, PT Comunicações reduced the benefits granted under the same pension plans. The impact of the above mentioned changes to benefits, reduced PT's pension liability by Euro 42,776,920, of which Euro 37,245,920 was recognized as a prior year service gain, since it was related to vested rights, and the remaining Euro 5,531,000 was related to unvested rights and therefore was deferred up to the retiment date (Note 3.h).

        Based on the actuarial studies, the benefit obligation and the fair value of the pension funds as at 30 June 2007 and 31 December 2006 are as follows:

 
  30 Jun 07
  31 Dec 06
 
Projected benefit obligation:          
  Pension and pension supplements   2,825,499,466   3,073,825,333

This caption refers to the component of the prior years' service gain resulting from the changes in the benefits granted under pension plans introduced during the first half of 2007, related to unvested rights. This amount will be recognized in earnings during the estimated period in which those benefits will be earned by employees (15 years).

Pensions cost   68,918,051   30,716,800  
   
 
 

        Actuarial gains and losses resulting essentially from changes in actuarial assumptions or differences between those actuarial assumptions and actual data are recognised directly in shareholders' equity.

F-38



During the first half of 2007 and 2006, the movement in accumulated net actuarial losses was as follows:

 
  2007
  2006
 
Opening balance (Note 40.6)   1,404,159,583   1,653,137,579  
Change in actuarial assumptions (Note 9.6)   (208,920,016 ) (247,027,288 )
Differences between actual data and actuarial assumptions (Note 9.6):          
  Pension benefit obligation related   (38,100,994 )  
  Asset related   (40,008,000 ) 38,813,524  
   
 
 
Closing balance (Note 40.6)   1,117,130,573   1,444,923,815  
   
 
 

        During the first half of 2007, the change in actuarial assumptions corresponds to the effect of the increase in the discount rate from 4.75% to 5.25% for pension liabilities and from 4.25% to 4.75% for salary liabilities, reflecting the evolution of market yields. In the first half of 2006, the change in actuarial assumptions corresponds to the effect of the the increase in the discount rate from 4.5% to 5.0% for pension liabilities and from 3.5% to 4.25% for salary liabilities.

9.2.    Health care benefits

        As referred to in Note 3.i, PT Comunicações is responsible for the payment of post retirement health care benefits to certain active employees, suspended employees, pre-retired employees, retired employees and their eligible relatives. Health care services are rendered by PT-ACS, which was incorporated with the only purpose of managing the Company's Health Care Plan.

        This plan sponsored by PT Comunicações includes all employees hired by PT Comunicações until 31 December 2003 and by Marconi until 1 February 1998. Certain employees of PT SI and DCSI who were transferred from PT Comunicações are also covered by this health care plan.

        The financing of the Health Care Plan in assured by defined contributions made by participants to PT-ACS and the remainder by PT Comunicações, which incorporated an autonomous fund in 2004 for this purpose.

        In the second half of 2006, PT Comunicações made some changes to the Health Care Plan in order to maintain its long-term sustainability and financing. These changes included mainly a reduction in the amount that PT Comunicações pays for each medical act and an increase in participants' contributions (from 1.7% of salary in 2007 until 2.1% of salary in 2009), with these effects leading to a reduction in health care benefit obligations at the end of 2006 and to a reduction in future service costs.

        In addition, in December 2006 PT Comunicações and SNS agreed to terminate the Protocol entered into in 2004 related to the Health Care Plan. In connection with this Protocol, SNS paid to PT Comunicações an annual amount per participant, and PT Comunicações paid the health care expenses incurred by its participants in SNS's hospitals network. Historically, this Protocol presented a deficit

F-39



situation for PT Comunicações, with this trend being included in the unfunded health care benefit obligations.

        The actuarial valuations for these plans, as at 30 June 2007 and 2006 and 31 December 2006, were computed based on the projected unit credit method and considered the following actuarial assumptions and rates:

 
  30 Jun 07
  31 Dec 06
  30 Jun 06
 
Rate of return on long-term fund assets   6.00 % 6.00 % 6.00 %
Health care liabilities' discount rate   5.25 % 4.75 % 5.00 %
Health care cost trend rate:              
  Next four years   3.50 % 3.50 % 3.50 %
  Years thereafter   2.75 % 2.75 % 3.00 %
Salary growth rate   2.25 % 2.25 % 3.00 %
Inflation rate   1.75 % 1.75 % 2.00 %

        The discount rate for health care liabilities was computed based on long-term yield rates of high-rating bonds as of the balance sheet date for maturities comparable to those liabilities.

        The rate of return on long-term fund assets was estimated based on historical information on the return of portfolio assets, the expected portfolio in future years (defined in accordance with the expected maturity of the liabilities) and certain financial market performance indicators usually considered in market analysis.

        Health care cost trend rate was estimated based on specific indicators for this sector and historical information, with the long-term rate being computed also based on the inflation rate.

        The demographic assumptions considered as at 30 June 2007 and 2006 and 31 December 2006 were as follows:

        Mortality table:

Employees (while in active service):    
  Males   AM (92)
  Females   AF (92)
Pensioners:    
  Males   PA (90)m adjusted
  Females   PA (90)f adjusted

        Demographic assumptions considered by Portugal Telecom are based on mortality tables generally accepted for actuarial valuation purposes, with these tables being periodically adjusted to reflect the mortality experience occurred in the closed universe of the plan participants.

        Actuarial gains and losses, resulting essentially from changes in actuarial assumptions or differences between those actuarial assumptions and actual data, are computed periodically by the actuary and are recognised directly in shareholders' equity. During the first half of 2007 and 2006, the movements in accumulated net actuarial losses were as follows:

 
  2007
  2006
 
Opening balance (Note 40.6)   246,438,253   316,875,470  
Change in actuarial assumptions (Note 9.6)   (33,044,160 ) (65,075,012 )

18.    Income taxes

        From 1 January 2007, Portugal Telecom and its subsidiaries located in Portugal are subject to Corporate Income Tax ("IRC") at a rate of 25%, which is increased up to a maximum of 1.5% of collectible profit through a municipal tax, leading to an aggregate tax rate of approximately 26.5%. In 2006, the Corporate Income Tax was increased up to 10%, leading to an aggregate tax rate of approximately 27.5%. In calculating taxable income, to which the above tax rate is applied, non-tax-deductible amounts are added to or subtracted from book entries. These differences between book and taxable entries can be temporary or permanent.

        Portugal Telecom and PT Multimedia adopted the tax consolidation regime for groups of companies, which apply to all companies in which they hold at least 90% of the capital stock and that

F-48



comply with Article 63 of the Portuguese Corporate Income Tax Law. Income taxes from the tax consolidation of PT Multimédia is presented in the consolidated income statement under the caption "Discontinued operations" (Note 19).

        In accordance with Portuguese tax legislation, income tax returns are subject to review and adjustment by the tax authorities during the period of four calendar years (five years for social security, and ten years for the contributions made with respect to the years before 2001), except when there are tax losses, tax benefits were granted, or when tax inspections, claims or appeals are in progress, in which case the time periods are extended or suspended. The Board of Directors of Portugal Telecom, based on information from its tax advisors, believes that any adjustment which may result from such reviews or adjustments, as well as other tax contingencies, would not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2007, except for the situations where provisions have been recognised (Note 38).

(i)
The increase in the goodwill of Vivo is mainly related to the Brazilian Real appreciation against the Euro in the first half of 2007 (Euro/Brazilian Real exchange rate of 2.8118 as at 31 December 2006, as compared to 2.6024 as at 30 June 2007).

(ii)
Goodwill related to the PT Multimedia business was included under the caption "Assets related to discontinued operations" as at 30 June 2007.

(iii)
The investment in this company was disposed of in January 2007 for an amount of Euro 3,108,957 (Note 32 and Exhibit I).

        For impairment analysis purposes, goodwill was allocated to cash generating units, which correspond to reportable business segments (Note 7). The Company's management has concluded, based on estimated cash flows for those segments discounted using the applicable discount rates, that as at 31 December 2006 the book value of financial investments, including goodwill, does not exceed its recoverable amount. During the six months periods ended 30 June 2007, no events occurred that indicated any impairment losses on goodwill.

        As at 30 June 2007, the Group has used an amount of Euro 185 million in connection with these four stand-by facilities.

        As at 30 June 2007, Vivo had also available standby facilities in the total amount of R$1,650 million, of which no amount was being used at that date.

        As at 30 June 2007, loans obtained from the European Investment Bank ("EIB") and KFW amounted to, respectively, Euro 668 million and Euro 5 million, maturing up to 2014.

        As at 30 June 2007 and 31 December 2006, the bank loans of Portugal Telecom and its group companies bear interest at annual interest rates, equivalent to loans denominated in Euros, which vary between:

 
  30 Jun 2007
  31 Dec 2006
 
Maximum   5.46 % 5.46 %
Minimum   3.00 % 3.00 %

        As at 30 June 2007, the fair value of total bank loans amounted to Euro 1,257 million.

The fair value as at 30 June 2007 of outstanding commercial paper is similar to its carrying value.

34.4.    Leasings

        Financial leasing obligations booked at at 30 June 2007 are mainly related to the lease of vehicles and buildings.

34.6.    Covenants

        As at 30 June 2007, the Company had several covenants related to its indebtedness, which have been fully complied with as at that date, as follows:

        The Credit Facilities amounting to Euro 900 million and certain loans obtained from EIB totaling Euro 655 million as at 30 June 2007, grant the right to the banks of demanding the repayment of all amounts due in the case of any change in the control of Portugal Telecom.

        Certain loan agreements with the EIB, totaling Euro 364 million as at 30 June 2007, stated that Portugal Telecom may be asked to present a guarantee acceptable by the EIB if, at any time, the long-term credit rating assigned by the rating agencies to Portugal Telecom was reduced to BBB/Baa2 or less. As a result of PT's downgrade on 3 August 2006 to BBB- by S&P, to Baa2 by Moody's and to BBB by Fitch, the Company negotiated with EIB revised terms and conditions for these loans. The agreement between the two entities, signed on 23 February 2007, allows PT to present the guarantee only in the case of a downgrade from the current rating (BBB- by S&P, Baa2 by Moody's and BBB by Fitch).

        The Credit Facility amounting to Euro 500 million states that Portugal Telecom must, directly or indirectly, maintain majority ownership and control of each material subsidiary. Material subsidiaries are those companies whose total assets are equal or exceed 10% of total consolidated assets or whose total revenues are also equal or exceed 10% of total consolidated revenues. As of the date of this filling there are no outstanding amounts related to this Credit Facility.

        The Credit Facility amounting to Euro 100 million and certain EIB loans totaling Euro 662 million include certain restrictions regarding the disposal of assets by Portugal Telecom. Following the agreement signed with EIB on 23 February 2007 mentioned above, the bank waived its rights related to this covenant solely for the PT Multimedia spin-off.

        The Facility of Euro 500 million and one of the facilities of Euro 150 million state that the ratio Consolidated Net Debt/EBITDA should not be higher than 3.5. The Credit Facility of Euro 100 million, states that the ratio Consolidated Net Debt/EBITDA should not be higher than 4.0. In addition, the conditions (spread and maturity) applicable to the Facility of Euro 500 million and to the Euro 150 million Facility obtained in June 2004 may be changed if the ratio Consolidated Net Debt/EBITDA is higher than, respectively, 2.5 and 2.25. As at 30 June 2007, this ratio stood at 1.87.

F-74



        The Global Medium Term Notes and the Facilities totaling Euro 900 million are subject to negative pledge clauses, which restrict the pledge of security interests in the assets of companies included in the consolidation.

Because certain shareholders did not possess a sufficient number of shares to receive a new share in exchange, an auction of the shares not attributed/exchanged was undertaken. Each company recognized the value received in this auction as a payable to the former shareholders, which will be reduced to the extent the former shareholders request those amounts.

        The following matters may not be approved in a General Shareholders' Meeting against the majority of the votes corresponding to Class A shares:

        In addition, the election of one third of the total number of Directors, including the Chairman of the Board of Directors, requires the approval of a majority of the votes of the Class A shares.

40.2.    Capital issued premium

        This caption resulted from premiums generated in capital increases made by Portugal Telecom. According to Portuguese law, applicable to companies listed in stock exchanges under the supervision of Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários ("CMVM", the Portuguese securities and stock exchange regulator), these amounts can only be used to increase share capital or to absorb accumulated losses (without it being necessary to first use other reserves). Capital issued premium was used in the share capital increase effective on 11 May 2006, as approved at the Annual General Meeting of 21 April 2006.

40.3.    Treasury shares

        As at 30 June 2007 and 31 December 2006, this caption includes equity swaps contracted by Portugal Telecom up to those dates that are recognised as an effective acquisition of treasury shares, thus implying the recognition of a corresponding financial liability (Note 34).

        During 2006 and the first half of 2007, the movements in these captions were as follows:

(i)
During the first half of 2007, Portugal Telecom decided to cash settle the equity swaps over 48,810,043 own shares, having received an amount of Euro 31,247,010 (Note 16) resulting from the difference between the exercise price and the market price of PT's share as of the dates of the financial settlement.

40.4.    Legal reserve

        Portuguese law provides that at least 5% of each year's profits must be appropriated to a legal reserve until this reserve equals the minimum requirement of 20% of share capital. This reserve is not available for distribution to shareholders but may be capitalized or used to absorb losses, once all other reserves and retained earnings have been exhausted. A portion of the legal reserve amounting to Euro 121,523,559 and Euro 79,019,955 was used in the share capital increases effective on 11 May 2006 and 22 May 2007, respectively.

F-82



40.5.    Reserve for treasury shares

        The reserve for treasury shares is related to the recognition of a non-distributable reserve equivalent to the nominal value of the shares cancelled. This reserve has the same legal regime as the legal reserve. The total reserve for treasury shares was used in the share capital increase effective on 11 May 2006, as approved at the Annual General Meeting of 21 April 2006.

40.6.    Accumulated earnings

This caption includes mainly the translation adjustments of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies as from 1 January 2004 up to the balance sheet date (Note 3.q)), and is mainly related to PT's investment in Brazil, whose currency translation adjustments amounted to Euro 864 million as at 30 June 2007, mainly related to the investment in Vivo.

41.    Financial instruments

41.1.    Financial risks

        Portugal Telecom is primarily exposed to (i) market risks related mainly to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and in interest rates, (ii) credit risks, (iii) liquidity risks and (iv) other risks. The main objective of Portugal Telecom's financial risk management is to reduce these risks to a lower level. Portugal Telecom enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its risk exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

        The contracting of these derivatives is made after careful analysis of associated risks and rewards, taking into consideration information obtained from different institutions. These transactions are subject to authorization from Portugal Telecom's Executive Committee. The positions held by the

F-83



Company, as well as the relevant financial markets, are permanently monitored. The fair value of these derivatives is determined on a regular basis in order to assess the economic and financial implications of different scenarios.

Foreign currency exchange rate

        Foreign currency exchange rate risks are mainly related to our investments in Brazil and other foreign countries, and to our debt denominated in currencies different from the functional currency of the country where the borrowing company operates.

        As at 30 June 2007, the net exposure (assets minus liabilities) to Brazil amounted to R$7,538 million (Euro 2,897 million at the Euro/Real exchange rate as at 30 June 2007), of which more than approximately 90% is related to our investment in Vivo.

        The Group is also exposed to foreign currency exchange-rate risks related to debt denominated in foreign currencies different from the Group companies' functional currencies. As at 30 June 2007, these risks are basically related to:

        On the following paragraphs and as required by IFRS 7, it is described a sensitivity analysis that shows the effects of hypothetical changes of relevant risk variables on the income statement and shareholders' equity:

F-84


Interest rate

        Interest rate risks basically impact our financial expenses on the floating interest rate debt. Portugal Telecom is exposed to these risks primarily in the Euro zone and in Brazil (Vivo). With the purpose of reducing the impact of these risks, the Group has entered into interest-rate swaps, swapping floating rate into fixed rate debt.

        As at 30 June 2007, 78.8% of net debt and 59.9% of gross debt were, directly or indirectly through the use of interest rate derivatives, set in fixed rates. The remaining 21.2% of net debt and 40.1% of gross debt are exposed to changes in market interest rates. If all market interest rates had been higher (lower) by 1% during the six months period ended 30 June 2007, net interest expenses would have been higher (lower) by an amount of approximately 1.2 million (1.2 million).

        The Group has also entered into some derivatives, which include an interest rate component, that are classified as held for trading derivatives, although its economic goal is to hedge currency or interest rate risk. If the market interest rates had been higher (lower) by 1% during the six months period ended 30 June 2007, net interest expenses in respect of these instruments would have been higher (lower) by an amount of approximately Euro 0.5 million (Euro 0.5 million).

        Interest rate risks also results from the exposure to changes in the fair value of PT's long term fixed-rate debt due to changes in market interest rates.

Credit risks

        Credit risk is related to the risk that a third party fails on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. Portugal Telecom is subject to credit risks in its treasury and operating activities.

        Risks related to treasury activities result from the cash investments made by the Group. In order to dilute these risks, Portugal Telecom's policy is to invest its cash for short time periods, entering in agreements with highly rated financial institutions and diversifying counterparties.

        Credit risks related to operations are basically related to outstanding receivables from services rendered to our customers (Notes 24 and 25). These risks are monitored on a business to business basis and PT's management of these risks aims to (a) limit the credit granted to customers, considering the profile and the aging of receivables of each customer, (b) monitor the evolution of the level of credit granted, and (c) perform an impairment analysis of its receivables on a regular basis.

        The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single customer, since trade receivables consist of a large number of customers, spread across several businesses and geographical areas. The Group obtains credit guarantee insurance, whenever the financial condition of a customer requires it.

F-85


        Adjustments for accounts receivable are computed taking into consideration primarily (a) the risk profile of the customer, weather it's a corporate or a residential customer, (b) the aging of the receivables, which differs from business to business, and (c) the financial condition of the customers. The movement of these adjustments for the six months periods ended 30 June 2007 and 2006 is disclosed in Note 38. As at 30 June 2007, the Company believes that there is no further credit provision required in excess of the adjustments for doubtful accounts receivable included in Note 38.

Liquidity risks

        These risks may occur if the sources of funding, such as operating cash inflows, divestments, credit lines and cash flows obtained from financing operations, do not match with our financing needs, such as operating and financing outflows, investments, shareholder remuneration and debt repayments.

        In order to mitigate liquidity risks, Portugal Telecom seeks to maintain a liquidity position and an average maturity of debt that allows it to repay its short term debt and, at the same time, pay all its financial commitments, as mentioned above. As at 30 June 2007, the amount of available cash plus the undrawn amount of PT's commercial paper lines (cash immediately available upon a 2-day notice) and PT's standby facilities totaled Euro 2,702 million. Excluding non-domestic operations, this amount was Euro 2,358 million. As at 30 June 2007, Vivo had also available standby facilities in the amount of R$1,650 million, of which no amount was being used at that date. The average maturity of PT's net debt as at 30 June 2007 is 6.0 years.

Country risk

        The political and economic risks of a specific country may affect our investments in foreign countries, with particular emphasis to our investments in Brazil and in Africa. These risks may have a negative effect on net assets, cash flows and results of those investments.

Other risks

        Portugal Telecom is exposed to equity price risks arising mainly from changes in the value of investments accounted for by the equity method or classified as available for sale. These risks affect Portugal Telecom basically in its investments in UOL (Note 30) and Telefónica (Note 31).

        As at 30 June 2007, the fair value of our investment in UOL amounted to Euro 155 million, which compares to a carrying value of Euro 119 million, including goodwill (Note 30). The fair value of this investment is based on the market price of UOL shares, which are listed on the Brazilian stock market. Although the Group is exposed to the equity price risk arising from the investment in UOL, this investment meets the IFRS requirements to be accounted for under the equity method.

        In relation to our investment in Telefónica, which is recorded at fair value through equity, the increase/(decrease) by 10% in its share price as at 30 June 2007, would have increased/(decreased) our investment by Euro 0.5 million.

        Portugal Telecom is also exposed to risks related to the changes in the fair value of the plan assets associated with PT's post retirement defined benefit plans (Note 9). The main purpose of the investment policy established is the capital preservation through five main principles: (1) diversification;

F-86



(2) stable strategic asset allocation and disciplined rebalancing; (3) lower exposure to currency fluctuations; (4) specialized instruments for each class of assets; and (5) cost control.

41.2.    Derivative financial instruments

Equity derivatives

        In order to increase its exposure to PT Multimedia, Portugal Telecom contracted in previous years with a financial institution equity swaps over 30,575,090 shares of PT Multimedia, representing 9.9% of PTM's share capital, which were recorded on the balance sheet at fair value through profit and loss.

        During the first half of 2007, a gain amounting to Euro 77,428,725 (Note 7.d) was booked related to the change in fair value of these equity swaps up to May 2007, when these equity swaps were cash settled and as a result Portugal Telecom has received an amount of Euro 94,477,028 (Note 43.f).

Hedging financial instruments

        As described above, Portugal Telecom analyses its financial instruments regularly in order to identify those that comply with the criteria established by IAS 39 to be classified as hedging instruments. As at 30 June 2007 and 31 December 2006, the following financial instruments were classified as hedging derivatives (amounts in millions of euros, including 100% of Vivo's financial instruments):

45.    Litigation

45.1.    Regulatory authorities

a) Claims for municipal taxes and fees

        Pursuant to a statute enacted on 1 August 1997, as an operator of a basic telecommunications network, Portugal Telecom was exempt from municipal taxes and rights-of-way and other fees with respect to its network in connection with its obligations under the Concession. The Portuguese government has advised Portugal Telecom in the past that this statute confirmed the tax exemption under our Concession. The Portuguese government has advised Portugal Telecom it will continue to take the necessary actions in order for PT Comunicações to maintain the economic benefits contemplated by the Concession. At this time, Portugal Telecom cannot be sure that the Portuguese courts will accept that this statute resolves claims for municipal assessments and taxes for the period prior to its enactment.

        In 1999, the municipality of Oporto filed a lawsuit claiming the repayment of taxes and other fees in connection with the use by PT Comunicações of public rights-of-way in 1998. The Lower Tax Court of Oporto ruled in favor of PT Comunicações in March 2003, declaring the regulations of the Municipality of Oporto, under which such taxes and other fees were deemed to be owed by PT Comunicações, to be unconstitutional. The Municipality of Oporto subsequently appealed this decision to the Administrative Central Court, and then PT Comunicações submitted its response thereto. This appeal is pending before the Administrative Central Court.

        If this claim is upheld against PT Comunicações, other municipalities might seek to make or renew claims against PT Comunicações. Portuguese law provides for a four-year statute of limitations for claims for taxes or other similar governmental charges. The statute of limitation for taxable events that occurred prior to 1 January 1998 is five years. Since the statute of limitations for such claims has expired, Portugal Telecom do not expect that any further claims will be made against PT Comunicações, but PT cannot be certain about this.

        Law 5/2004 of 10 February 2004 established a new rights-of-way regime in Portugal whereby each municipality may establish a fee, up to a maximum of 0.25% of each wireline services bill, to be paid by the customers of those wireline operators whose network infrastructures are located in each such municipality. This regime was implemented in 2005 but does not affect the lawsuit described above pursuant to the former statute.

b) Regulatory Proceedings

        PT Group companies are regularly involved in regulatory inquiries and investigations involving their operations. In addition, ANACOM, the European Commission, and the Autoridade da Concorrência regularly make inquiries and conduct investigations concerning compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Current inquires and investigations include several investigations by the Autoridade da Concorrência related to (i) PT.com (this complaint was formerly against Telepac, which merged with PT.com in December 2004) and TV Cabo regarding alleged anti-competitive practices in the broadband Internet market; (ii) TV Cabo and Sport TV by TV TEL, a cable TV company operating in the Oporto area, for alleged refusal to supply advertising space; and (iii) PT

F-102



Comunicações for alleged anti-competitive practices in the public wireline telephone market and for granting discriminatory discounts on leased lines. Portugal Telecom considers that group companies have consistently followed a policy of compliance with all relevant laws. The Group continually reviews commercial offers in order to reduce the risk of competition law infringement. The Group believes that most of the complaints that have resulted in such investigations should be dismissed due to the nature of the alleged abuses and the novelty of the relevant competition laws. However, if group companies are found to be in violation of applicable laws and regulations in these or other regulatory inquiries and investigations, they could become subject to penalties, fines, damages or other sanctions. It is however permitted under Portuguese law to appeal any adverse decision to the Courts. The appeal will suspend the decisions of Autoridade da Concorrência.

        In 2004, the Autoridade da Concorrência initiated a proceeding against PT Comunicações, referred to as a "statement of objections", alleging that PT Comunicações was denying access to the ducts in which the basic telecommunications network is installed. In June 2005, the Autoridade da Concorrência issued a revised "statement of objections" on this matter. PT Comunicações has responded to those "statement of objections" and does not believe it has violated applicable law and regulations. However, on 1 August 2007, the Autoridade da Concorrência imposed a fine of Euro 38 million on PT Comunicações. PT Comunicações appealed to the Commerce Court of Lisbon, on 30 August 2007. This appeal suspends the decision of Autoridade da Concorrência.

        In September 2005, the Autoridade da Concorrência brought allegations against PT Multimedia and TV Cabo for practices allegedly in violation of Article 4 of Law 18/2003 (the Portuguese Competition Law) following the execution in 2000 of a partnership agreement among PT Multimédia, TV Cabo and SIC—Sociedade Independente de Comunicação, S.A. ("SIC") in connection with SIC's acquisition of Lisboa TV-Informacão e Multimédia, SA. PT Multimedia and TV Cabo contested the allegations by the Portuguese competition authority. However, in August 2006, the Autoridade da Concorrência imposed a fine of Euro 2.5 million on PT Multimedia. PT Multimedia and TV Cabo appealed to the Commerce Court of Lisbon on 8 September 2006. This appeal suspended the decision of the Portuguese competition authority. On 14 August 2007, PTM was notified of the Commerce Court's decision within the appeal procedure. According to the said decision, the Commerce Court declared the limitation of action of the decision of the Autoridade da Concorrência in what concerned the first option clause of the Partnership Agreement, having also declared that the entire proceeding was null and void, and therefore that the Autoridade da Concorrência should reinitiate a new proceeding solely in respect of the exclusivity clause.

        In April 2007, the Autoridade da Concorrência acused PT Comunicações of alleged abuse of dominant position for granting dicriminatory discounts on lease lines. In response to this acusation, PT Comunicações contested the alleged by the Autoridade da Concorrência. PT Comunicações is permitted under Portuguese law to appeal any adverse decision of the Autoridade da Concorrência to the Courts. The appeal suspends the decision of the Autoridade da Concorrência.

        On 8 June 2005, Portugal Telecom was informed through the press that Sonaecom had filed a complaint against it with the European Commission, under article 82 of the EU Treaty, alleging abuse of dominant position in the Portuguese market in connection with our provision of both cable television

F-103



and fixed line services, respectively, through our subsidiaries, PT Multimedia and PT Comunicações. Sonaecom requested that the European Commission require Portugal Telecom to separate its cable television and fixed line telecommunications operations—a so-called "structural remedy". However, on 2 February 2006 the Commission responded that the complaint should be addressed by the Portuguese Autoridade da Concorrência. To Portugal Telecom knowledge, proceedings before the European Commission related to this complaint are now closed. Portugal Telecom has not received further information about whether Sonaecom intends to pursue this matter with the Autoridade da Concorrência.

        Sonaecom has also submitted a complaint to the European Commission alleging illegal "state aid" in connection with the Portuguese government's sale of the basic telecommunications network to PT Comunicações in 2002 and the exemption from the payment of municipal taxes granted to PT Comunicações as part of its Concession Agreement. Sonaecom is claiming that the purchase price for the basic network was below market value, thereby adversely affecting the Portuguese State. Sonaecom also claims that the absence of a public tender offer and the absence of independent valuations to set a minimum disposal price constituted "state aid". Pursuant to its Concession Agreement, PT Comunicações was exempted from the payment of municipal taxes from 1995 until such exemption was revoked by Law 5/2004 of 10 February 2004. This is in contrast to the situation affecting new telecommunications operators after the liberalization of the telecoms market in 2000. In order for new operators to build their infrastructure, they were required to pay municipal taxes for the use of municipal sub-soil. Sonaecom claims this discrimination against new operators represents a case of illegal "state aid" which harmed both new operators and the municipalities. Portugal Telecom have not received information from the European Commission or the Portuguese authorities regarding this complaint.

        In April 2006, the European Commission sent a formal request to the Portuguese government to abandon the special rights it holds as the sole owner of Portugal Telecom's Class A shares. The European Commission believes that the special powers granted to the Portuguese government through the sole ownership of the Class A shares act as a disincentive for investment by other EU member states in a manner that violates European Community Treaty rules. Should the Portuguese authorities not take satisfactory steps to remedy the alleged infringement of EU law, the European Commission may decide to refer the case to the European Court of Justice.

c) Other Legal Proceedings

        On 23 April 2001, PT Comunicações submitted a claim to the Lisbon administrative court, contesting the legality of an ANACOM administrative decision of 21 February 2001, which instructed PT Comunicações to change its billing structure for the connection of ISPs to its fixed line network from a model based on revenue sharing to one based on call origination charges and established maximum prices that PT Comunicações is permitted to charge ISPs for Internet interconnection service. PT Comunicações has claimed that ANACOM's administrative decision was issued in contravention of Portuguese and EU law. If PT Comunicações is successful in its initial claim, it plans to request compensation for any losses suffered in connection with the implementation of its reference Internet access offer of 1 March 2001.

F-104



        In April 2003, TVI-Televisão Independente, SA, or TVI, a television company, filed a claim against the Portuguese State and PT Comunicações in the Lisbon Administrative Court. In 1990, TVI and SIC, another television company, were awarded licenses for the provision of television channels pursuant to a public tender process. TVI claims that when it tendered for the television channel license, it chose not to use the publicly-owned backbone network to carry its signals but to build and operate its own network, and that it made this decision on the basis of the prices of the publicly-owned backbone network. TVI argues that when PT Comunicações subsequently took control over that network and became the provider of that network for carriage of television signals, PT Comunicações lowered the prices (on which TVI argues it based its decision) charged to SIC and RTP, the national television company, and that this violated several principles and provisions of Portuguese law. The price decreases are alleged to have been made under the Pricing Convention entered into by Portugal Telecom with the Portuguese State and the Portuguese telecommunications regulator in 1997, which regulated our network prices.

        TVI is claiming an amount of about Euro 64 million from the Portuguese State and PT Comunicações. TVI claims that this amount reflects the excess of the cost to it of building and operating its own network over the prices it would have paid had it chosen to use the publicly-owned backbone network, as well as loss of profit which it would have made had it used that network, which TVI argues is more extensive and more developed than its own. PT Comunicações strongly disagrees with TVI's claims. On 20 June 2003, PT Comunicações submitted its response to TVI's claim, arguing that (i) the statute of limitations on TVI's claim for compensation has run because the claim relates to events that occurred more that ten years ago, (ii) the decrease in prices charged by PT Comunicações for the use of the publicly-owned backbone network did not violate Portuguese law because it does not require that the prices charged for use of such network remain unchanged; and (iii) TVI's claim for damages and losses is neither legally nor factually sustainable. The Portuguese State has also submitted its response to TVI's claim, and PT Comunicações is currently waiting for the Lisbon Administrative Court to set a date for the preliminary hearing.

        In September 2003, HLC—Telemedia, SGPS, S.A., Horácio Luís de Brito Carvalho and HLC—Engenharia e Gestão de Projectos, SA (collectively, "HLC") filed a law suit against PT Comunicações in the Lisbon Civil Court seeking to be compensated by Euro 15 million. HLC is arguing that PT Comunicações (i) ceased rendering fixed telephone services; (ii) ceased rendering interconnection services; and (iii) interrupted the rendering of PT Comunicações' leased line services and that these actions caused HLC to go bankrupt, injured HLC's image and resulted in Horácio Luís de Brito Carvalho becoming personally liable for certain of HLC's losses. PT Comunicações disagrees with HLC's claim and responded to it in November 2003. HLC answered this response in December 2003. The Lisbon Civil Court has determined which facts have been established in connection with this claim and which facts have yet to be established. PT Comunicações is now waiting for the court to set a date for the final hearing.

        In March 2004, TV TEL Grande Porto—Comunicações, SA, or TVTEL, a telecommunications company based in Oporto, filed a claim against PT Comunicações in the Lisbon Judicial Court. TV TEL alleged that PT Comunicações, since 2001, has unlawfully restricted and/or refused access to the telecommunication ducts of PT Comunicações in Oporto, thereby undermining and delaying the

F-105



installation and development of TV TEL's telecommunications network. TV TEL alleges that PT Comunicações intended to favor both itself and CATVP—TV Cabo Portugal, S.A, a PT Group company and a direct competitor of TV TEL.

        TV TEL is claiming an amount of approximately Euro 15 million from PT for damages and losses allegedly caused and yet to be sustained by that company as a result of the delay in the installation of its telecommunications network in Oporto. In addition, TV TEL has demanded that PT Comunicações be required to give full access to its ducts in Oporto. PT Comunicações submitted its defense to these claims in June 2004, stating that (1) TV TEL did not have a general right to install its network in PT Comunicações's ducts, (2) all of TV TEL's requests were lawfully and timely responded to by PT Comunicações according to its general infrastructure management policy, and (3) TV TEL's claims for damages and losses were not factually sustainable. The preliminary hearing in this proceeding has been completed and PT Comunicações expects that a date for a trial will be set in the near future.

46.    Recent accounting pronouncements

        The Standards and Interpretations recently issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") but not yet effective and with potencial impact on the financial statements of Portugal Telecom, are as follows:

Presentation of financial statements

        On 6 September 2007, the IASB issued a revised IAS 1 "Presentation of financial statements", whose main change from the previous version is to require that an entity must present all non-owner changes in equity (that is "comprehensive income") either in one statement of comprehensive income or in two statements (a separate income statement and a statement of comprehensive income). Comprehensive income for a period includes profit and loss plus other comprehensive income recognised in that period, whose components in the case of Portugal Telecom include primarily actuarial gains and losses, currency translation adjustments, gains and losses on remeasuring available-for-sale financial assets and the effective portion of gains and losses on hedging instruments in a cash flow hedge. Revised IAS 1 also changes the titles of financial statements (a) from "balance sheet" to "statement of financial position", (b) from "income statement" to "statement of comprehensive income" and (c) from cash flow statement" to "statement of cash flows". The revised version of this standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009.

Customer loyalty programmes

        On 28 June 2007, the IFRIC issued IFRIC 13 "Customer loyalty programmes", which addresses accounting for loyalty award credits granted by entities to their customers who buy goods or services. In

F-107



accordance with this interpretation, an entity shall allocate some of the proceeds of the sale to the award credits as a liability, representing its obligation to provide those awards. The amount of proceeds allocated to the award credits is measured by reference to their fair value, that is, the amount for which the award credits could have been sold separately. The entity shall recognise the deferred portion of the proceeds as revenue only when it has fulfilled its obligations. IFRIC 13 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2008, although earlier application is permitted. Portugal Telecom is currently accessing the impact of this interpretation.

Defined benefit assets and minimum funding requirements

        On 5 July 2007, the IFRIC issued IFRIC 14 "The Limit on a Defined Benefit Asset, Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction", which provides general guidance on how to assess the limit in IAS 19 Employee Benefits on the amount of the surplus that can be recognised as an asset. It also explains how the pensions asset or liability may be affected when there is a statutory or contractual minimum funding requirement. The Interpretation will standardise practice and ensure that entities recognise an asset in relation to a surplus on a consistent basis. No additional liability need to be recognised by the employer under IFRIC 14 unless the contributions that are payable under the minimum funding requirement cannot be returned to the company. IFRIC 14 is likely to have the most impact in countries that have a minimum funding requirement and where there are restrictions on a company's ability to get refunds or reduce contributions which is not the case of Portugal Telecom. The Interpretation is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2008, although earlier application is permitted.

Borrowing costs

        On 29 March 2007, the IASB issued a revised IAS 23 "Borrowing costs", whose main change from the previous version is the removal of the option of immediately recognising as an expense borrowing costs that relate to assets that take a substantial period of time to get ready for use or sale. An entity is, therefore, required to capitalise borrowing costs as part of the cost of such assets. The revised version of this standard is applicable only for assets for which the commencement date for capitalisation is on or after 1 January 2009, although earlier application is permitted. Portugal Telecom doesn't estimate a material impact on its future consolidated financial statements.

47.    Subsequent events

        On 2 August 2007, the Autoridade da Concorrência sanctioned PT Comunicações for alleged abuse of dominant position by refusing to provide access to its ducts and applied a fine of Euro 38 million. PT regrets that this was the outcome of the investigation conducted since July 2003 by the Autoridade da Concorrência, and considers the censure to be unfounded and unfair. Supported by legal opinions, PT has decided not to provide for this contingency, and considers that the outcome of this matter will be ultimately favourable for PT.

        On 3 August 2007, Vivo Participações, SA has signed a stock purchase agreement with Telpart Participações S.A. ("Telpart") to acquire control of Telemig Celular Participações S.A. ("Telemig

F-108



Celular Participações") and Tele Norte Celular Participações S.A. ("Tele Norte Celular Participações") comprised of 22.72% and 19.34% of total capital, respectively, for an aggregate amount of R$1.2 billion, subject to certain price adjustments. In addition, Vivo will acquire from Telpart certain subscription rights for R$87 million. The conclusion of the transaction is subject to ANATEL (the Brazilian telecom regulator) approval and ratification by general shareholders meetings of Vivo and Telpart, among other customary closing conditions.

        In August 2007, Portugal Telecom established a strategic partnership with Helios Investors LP ("Helios"), a fund advised by Helios Investment Partners LLP, for the sub-Saharan telecommunications market. Under the terms of the agreement, Helios initially acquired, for a total consideration of Euro 125 million, a 22% stake in PT África, B.V. ("África PT"), the holding company that will aggregate all of PT's current interests in sub-Saharan Africa. Portugal Telecom has also subscribed a financing facility issued by África PT amounting to USD 450 million.

        On 28 August 2007, PT Finance issued a Euro 750 million exchangeable bond due 2014 to Portuguese and international institutional investors: These are exchangeable for ordinary shares of Portugal Telecom at an exchange price of Euro 13.9859 and carry a coupon of 4.125% per annum.

PT Multimédia—Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, S.A.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Amounts stated in Euro)

1.    Introduction

        PT-Multimédia—Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, S.A. ("PT-Multimédia" or "Company") was formed by Portugal Telecom, SGPS, S.A. ("Portugal Telecom") on 15 July 1999 for the purpose of developing the multimedia business. Currently, the multimedia business undertaken by PT-Multimédia and its subsidiaries ("Group" or "PT-Multimédia Group") includes cable and satellite television services, the distribution and sale of DVDs, videos and videogames, cinema exhibition and film distribution.

        Cable and satellite television services are rendered by CATVP—TV Cabo Portugal, S.A. ("TV Cabo Portugal") and its subsidiaries. TV Cabo was created on 3 November 1992 and began its activities on 29 July 1993, which include: a) cable and satellite television; b) electronic communication services, including data and multimedia communications services; and c) consulting, advisory and other services directly or indirectly related to the activities mentioned above.

        Up to 2003, the operations of TV Cabo Portugal and its subsidiaries were regulated by various legal provisions, in particular Law 31-A/98 (Television Law), which was revoked and replaced by Law 32/2003, Decree Law 241/97, regarding the exercising of cable network operator activities, Official Directives 501/95 and 791/98, which regulated operation of cable television distribution networks and the creation of technical rules and regulations governing the installation and functioning of these networks, Law 91/97 (Basic Telecommunications Law), and Decree Law 381-A/97, detailing the principles set forth in the aforementioned Basic Telecommunications Law in accordance with European Community rules.

        In 2004, Law 5/2004 (Electronic Communications Law) was approved, which sets forth the regime for electronic communications networks and services, and revokes Law 91/97, Decree Law no. 381-A/97 and Decree Law 241/97, among others. In accordance with the Electronic Communications Law, which substantially changed the system under which TV Cabo Portugal and its subsidiaries operate, a general authorization system is now in effect whereby companies desiring to furnish electronic communication networks and services must simply provide the National Communications Authority ("ANACOM") with a brief description of the network or service they seek to start up and the commencement date thereof. ANACOM then issues a statement confirming this notification and describing in detail the rights concerning access, interconnection and installation of resources. As follow-up to this new Law, ANACOM will publish regulations for implementing the Electronic Communications Law, as well as making any changes and adaptations to registers, licenses and authorizations issued pursuant to the Law, as is the case with TV Cabo Portugal and its subsidiaries.

        The Electronic Communications Law does not set limits for exercising activities, nor rules for reversion of assets, as was the case with the previous legal provisions with regard to cable network operator activities.

        PT Conteúdos—Actividade de Televisão e de Produção de Conteúdos, S.A. ("PT Conteúdos"), whose main activities involve television operations and content production, currently produces the Premium movie channels, distributed through the channels of TV Cabo Portugal and its subsidiaries, and also manages the advertising slots for some of these channels.

        Lusomundo Audiovisuais, S.A. ("Lusomundo Audiovisuais") and Lusomundo Cinemas, S.A. ("Lusomundo Cinemas"), and its subsidiaries undertake their activities in the area of audiovisuals,

F-131



which includes the distribution and sale of DVDs, videos and videogames, film distribution and cinema exhibition.

        The shares of PT-Multimédia are traded on the Euronext Lisbon Stock Exchange and, as at 31 December 2005, a total of 180,609,700 shares, corresponding to 58.43% of the share capital of the company are owned by Portugal Telecom SGPS.

        The notes in this annex follow the order in which the items are presented in the consolidated financial statements.

        The consolidated financial statements for the years ended 31 December 2005 and 2004 were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue on 6 March 2006.

2.    Basis of presentation

        The consolidated financial statements are presented in Euros, which is the currency of the majority of the Group's operations. Financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Euros according to accounting principles described in Note 3.

        The consolidated financial statements of PT-Multimédia are prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and adopted by the European Union ("EU"), including all interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee ("IFRIC") that were in effect on the date of approval of the financial statements. All changes to accounting principles and policies due to the implementation of IFRS, compared to those used in previous periods and reflected in the Official Accounting Plan and related accounting rules in effect in Portugal, were made in accordance with IFRS 1—"First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards" (Note 40).

        The impact of adopting IFRS as at 1 January 2004 was a negative amount of Euro 3,461,334 (Note 40.2), which was recognised in shareholders' equity as required by IFRS 1.

        The reconciliations of shareholders' equity as at 1 January and 31 December 2004 and net income for 2004, prepared under generally accepted accounting principles in Portugal ("PGAAP") and IFRS, are presented in Note 40.

        The consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming the continuity of the operations, based on accounting records of all subsidiaries included in the consolidation (Exhibit I.1).

        The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on the best information possible as of the date of preparation of the financial statements (Note 3).

a)  Consolidation principles

Controlled entities

        PT-Multimédia has fully consolidated the financial statements of all controlled entities. Control is achieved where the Group has the majority of the voting rights at the General Meeting of Shareholders, directly or indirectly, or has the power to determine the financial and operating policies

F-132



of an entity. In any case, where the group does not have a direct interest in the capital of the entity but in substance controls the entity, the financial statements of the entity are fully consolidated. Entities that fall in these categories are indicated in Exhibit I.1.

        The interest of any third party in the shareholders' equity and net income of fully consolidated companies is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated income statement under the caption "Minority interests" (Note 14).

        Losses applicable to the minorities in excess of the minority's interest in the subsidiary's equity are allocated against the interest of the Group, except to the extent that the minority has a binding obligation and is able to make an additional investment to cover the losses. If the controlled entity later reports profits, the Company appropriates the profits to the extent of the losses attributable to minority interests that were previously absorbed by the Group.

        From 1 January 2004, assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of an acquired subsidiary are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Any excess of the acquisition costs over the fair value of identifiable net assets is recognised as goodwill. If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, the difference is recognised as a gain in the net income for the period the acquisition occurs. Minority interests are presented proportionally to the fair value of identifiable net assets and liabilities.

        The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of profit and loss from the effective date of the acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.

        All intra-group transactions and balances are eliminated in the consolidation process. Gains obtained in intra-group sales of affiliated companies are also eliminated on the consolidation process.

        Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to adjust their accounting policies in line with those adopted by the Group.

Interests in joint ventures

        Portugal Telecom has proportionally consolidated the financial statements of jointly controlled entities beginning on the date the joint control is effective. Under this method, assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the entity are added, on a proportional basis, to the corresponding consolidated caption. Financial investments are classified as jointly controlled entities based on the existence of shareholders' agreements that evidence and regulate joint control.

        All transactions, balances and dividends distributed among entities are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the joint venture.

        Jointly controlled entities are presented in Exhibit I.3.

Investments in associates

        An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in decisions relating to the financial and operating policies of the entity, but not control or joint control.

F-133



        Financial investments in associated companies are accounted for under the equity method (Exhibit I.2). Under this method, investments in associated companies are adjusted periodically for the Group's share in the results of the associated company, against gains or losses on financial assets (Note 24), and other changes in net assets acquired. In addition, financial investments are adjusted for any impairment losses that may occur.

        Losses in associated companies in excess of the cost of acquisition are not recognised, except where the Group has assumed any commitment to cover those losses.

        Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the associate recognised at the date of acquisition is recognised as goodwill. The goodwill is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is assessed annually for impairment. If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of identifiable net assets, the difference is recognised as a gain in the net income for the period the acquisition occurs.

        Dividends received from associated companies are recognised as a reduction in the value of financial investments.

        Profits and losses in transactions with associated companies are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the associate, against the corresponding financial investment.

Non-current assets held for sale

        Non-current assets (or discontinued operations) are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when: (1) the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (2) management assumed a commitment to the sale; and (3) the sale is expected to be completed within 12 months. Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of the assets' previous carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell.

Goodwill

        Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary or jointly controlled entity recognised at the date of acquisition, in accordance with IFRS 3. Pursuant to the exemption provided in IFRS 1, the Group used the provisions of IFRS 3 only for acquisitions that occurred after 1 January 2004. Goodwill related to acquisitions made up to 1 January 2004 was recorded at their carrying amount as of that date, rather than being recalculated in accordance with IFRS 3, and are subject to annual impairment tests thereafter.

        Goodwill is recorded as an asset and included under the captions "Intangible assets" (Note 26), in the case of a subsidiary or jointly controlled entity, or under "Investment in group companies" (Note 24) in the case of an associated company. Goodwill is not amortised but is tested for impairment on an annual basis or whenever there are indications of a loss of value. Any impairment is recorded immediately as en expense in the income statement in the period it occurs and cannot be reversed in a subsequent period.

F-134



        On disposal of a subsidiary, jointly controlled entity or associate, the goodwill allocated to that investment is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal.

b)  Changes in the consolidated Group

        During 2005, PT-Multimédia disposed of its interest in Lusomundo Serviços, as described in Note 13. In addition, PT-Multimédia disposed of its participation in Warner Lusomundo Sogecable.

        With effect from 1 January 2005, Premium TV was merged into PT Conteúdos.

        Additionally, during 2005, the companies Hotel Video, Hispormédica, Diverfun and Mundifun, which had been dormant, were liquidated.

3.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates

a)  Current classification

        Assets to be realized and liabilities to be settled within one year from the date of the balance sheet are classified as current assets and liabilities, respectively.

b)  Inventories

        Inventories are stated at average acquisition cost. An adjustment to the carrying value of inventories is recognised when, due to technological obsolescence, use of inventory is no longer foreseen or when the net realizable value is lower than the average cost, through the net income of the period the loss occurs, under the caption "Cost of products sold".

c)  Tangible assets

        Tangible assets are stated at acquisition or production cost, net of accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, and investment subsidies, where applicable. Acquisition cost includes, in addition to the amount paid to acquire the asset, (1) direct expenses related with the acquisition process; and (2) the estimated cost of dismantling or removal of the assets (Notes 3.g and 32). Under the exemption provided by IFRS 1, revaluation of tangible assets in periods prior to 1 January 2004 in accordance with Portuguese legislation were not adjusted and were included as the deemed cost of the asset for IFRS purposes.

        Tangible assets are depreciated on a straight line basis from the month they are completed or are available for use. The amount of the asset to be depreciated is deducted from any residual value. The

F-135



depreciation rates correspond to the following estimated average useful lives, defined as a function of expected use of the asset:

 
  Years
Buildings and other constructions   5–50
Basic equipment:    
  Network installations and equipment   4–20
  Terminal equipment   4–5
  Other telecommunications equipment   5
  Other basic equipment   3–10
Transportation equipment   3–8
Tools and dies   4–10
Administrative equipment   3–10
Other tangible fixed assets   4–10

        Estimated losses resulting from the replacement of equipment before the end of their useful lives, for reasons of technological obsolescence, are recognised as a deduction from the corresponding asset's value against the results for the period. The cost of recurring maintenance and repairs is charged to net income as incurred. Costs associated to significant renewals and improvements are capitalized, if any future economic benefits are expected and those benefits could be reliably measured. Depreciation periods for those capitalized assets correspond to the period of the expected recovery of the investment.

        When an asset is considered as held for sale, its carrying amount is classified to current assets held for sale, and depreciation is stopped. The gain or loss arising on the disposal of a tangible asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and is recognised in net income under the caption "Losses on disposals of fixed assets, net".

d)  Intangible assets

        Intangible assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets are recognised only if any future economic benefits are expected and those benefits can be reliably measured.

        Intangible assets include basically goodwill (Note 2.a), lease rights, software licenses and other contractual rights.

        Internally generated intangible assets, namely current research and development expenditures, are recognised in net income when incurred. Development expenditures can only be recognised initially as an intangible asset if the Company demonstrates the technical ability to complete the project and put the asset in use or available for sale.

F-136



        Intangible assets, except goodwill, are amortised on a straight-line basis from the month they are available for use, during the following periods:

 
  Years
 
  Period of
the agreement

Lease rights    
Software licenses   3–6
Other intangible assets   3–8

e)  Impairment of tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill

        The Group assesses annually, at the balance sheet date, its tangible and intangible assets for impairment losses. This assessment is also made if any event or change in circumstances is identified that indicates that the recorded value of the asset may not be recovered. In case of any such indication, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss.

        Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value in use. In assessing fair value less cost to sell, the amount that could be received in a transaction with an independent and knowledgeable entity, minus the direct costs related with the sale. The value in use is the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value, based on the continuing use of the asset and its disposition at the end of its useful life.

        If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised immediately in net income under the caption "Depreciation and amortisation". Both periodic depreciation and impairment losses are reported.

        A reversal of previously recorded impairment losses is recorded when there are indications that these losses no longer exist or have decreased. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in the income statement in the period in which it occurs. However, a reversal of an impairment loss may be recorded only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation and amortization) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior periods.

f)  Provisions and contingent liabilities

        Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of internal resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

        Provisions for restructuring are only recognised if a detailed and formal plan exists and if the plan is communicated to the related parties.

        Provisions for dismantling and removing assets and renovations are recognised from the day the assets are in use, in accordance with the best estimates at that date (Notes 3.c and 32). The amount of

F-137



the provision is discounted, being the corresponding effect of time recognised in net income under the caption"Net interest expense".

        Provisions are updated on balance sheet date, considering the best estimate of the Group's management.

        Where any of the above mentioned criteria does not exist, or is not accomplished, the Group discloses the event as a contingent liability, unless the cash outflow is remote, in which case the event is not subject to disclosure.

g)  Subsidies

        Subsidies from the Portuguese Government and from the European Union are recognised at fair value when the receivable is probable and the Company can comply with all requirements of the subsidy program.

        Subsidies for training and other operating activities are recognised in net income when the related expenses are recognised.

        Subsidies to acquire tangible assets are deducted from the carrying amount of the related assets.

h)  Financial instruments

        Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Group's balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

F-138


F-139


F-140


i)  Leases

        Leases are classified (1) as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee and (2) as operating leases when substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the lessee.

        The classification of leases depends on the substance of the operation and not on the form of the contract.

        Assets acquired under leases and the corresponding liability to the lessor, are accounted for under the finance method, with the assets, principal payments and outstanding balance recorded in accordance with the lease payment plan. Interest included in the rents and the depreciation of the assets is recognised in net income in period they occur.

        Under operating leases, rents are recognised on a straight-line basis during the period of the lease.

j)  Taxation

        Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

        PT-Multimédia adopted the tax consolidation regime in Portugal for groups of companies. The provision for income taxes is determined on the basis of the estimated taxable income for all the companies in which it holds, directly or indirectly, 90% or more of the share capital and that are Portuguese residents and subject to the Income Tax for Collective Persons (IRC).

        The remaining Group companies, not covered by the tax consolidation regime, are taxed individually based on their respective taxable income, at the applicable tax rates.

        Income tax is recognised in accordance with IAS 12. The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year and on deferred tax, which is based on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.

        Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that these may be used to reduce future taxable profits or when there are deferred tax liabilities whose reversal is expected in the same period in which the deferred tax assets are expected to be reversed. The carrying amount of

F-141


deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

        The amount of tax attributable to current taxes or deferred taxes resulting from transactions or events recognized in reserves is recorded directly in the applicable shareholders' equity captions and does not affect the results for the period.

k)  Revenue recognition

        PT-Multimédia's revenue consists principally of:

        Whenever applicable, revenues from the sale of goods and services are allocated to each of their components and recognized separately in accordance with the criteria defined for each, as follows:

Cable and satellite television services

        Revenues from cable and satellite television services result essentially from and are recognised as follows: (i) monthly subscription fees for the use of the service; (ii) amounts billed for the installation of service and (iii) rental of equipment. Revenues from monthly subscriptions and installation are recognized in the period when the service is rendered to the customer, and revenues from the rental of equipment are recognized during the rental period.

Internet access services

        Revenue from Internet access services, provided through the cable network, is mainly from monthly subscriptions and/or use of the Internet, depending on the mode chosen by the customer. This revenue is recognized for the period in which the service is provided.

Cable TV advertising

        Advertising revenues from cable TV and related discounts are recognised in the period when the advertising is run.

Movie exhibition and distribution services

        Revenues from the exhibition of films result from the sale of cinema tickets, and revenues from the distribution of films result from the sale to other cinema operators of exhibition rights acquired from film producers and distributors. These revenues are recognised in the period of the exhibition or in the period of the sale of the rights.

        Subscriber acquisition costs ("SACs") are recognised in earnings when incurred.

F-142



        Programming costs are determined based on the number of subscriptions or based on fixed annual fees and are recognised when incurred.

        The distribution rights acquired by Lusomundo Audiovisuais from film producers are recorded as prepaid expenses at the time of the release of the films to theaters and are recognized in income during the period of the license (Note 22).

        As of each balance sheet date, trade receivables are adjusted for the estimated risks of collection, with unrecoverable amounts recognized in net income of the period under the caption "Provisions and adjustments".

        All other expenses and costs are recognised when incurred, on an accrual basis, regardless of the time of receipt or payment.

l)  Foreign currency transactions and balances

        Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Euros at the rates of exchange prevailing at the time the transactions are made. At the balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted to reflect the exchange rates prevailing at such date. The resulting gains or losses on foreign exchange transactions are recognised in net income, except for unrealized exchange differences in long-term intra-group balances, representing an extension of the related investment, are recognised in shareholders' equity under the caption "Other reserves".

        Exchange differences on non-monetary items are recognised in shareholders' equity, under the caption "Other reserves".

        The financial statements of subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Euros, using the following exchange rates:

        The effect of translation differences from the conversion of financial statements denominated in foreign currency is recognised in shareholders' equity under the caption "Other reserves".

m)  Borrowing costs

        Borrowing costs related to loans are recognised in net income when incurred.

        The Group does not capitalise any borrowing costs, even those related to loans to finance the acquisition, construction or production of any asset.

F-143



n)  Cash flow statements

        Consolidated cash flow statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS using the direct method. The Group classifies all highly liquid investments purchased, with original maturity of three months or less and for which the risk of change in value is insignificant, as cash and cash equivalents. The "Cash and cash equivalents" item presented in the cash flows statement also includes a negative amount related to overdrafts, classified in the balance sheet under "Short-term debt".

        Cash flows are classified in the cash flows statement according to three main categories, depending on their nature: (1) operating activities; (2) investing activities; and (3) financing activities.

        Cash flows from operating activities include collections from customers, payments to suppliers, payments to personnel and other collections and payments related to operating activities.

        Cash flows from investing activities include the acquisitions and disposals of investments in associated companies and purchase and sale of property, plant and equipment.

        Cash flows from financing activities include borrowing and repayments of debt, acquisition and sale of treasury shares and payments of dividends to shareholders.

o)  Subsequent events

        Events that occurred after the balance sheet date that provide additional information about conditions that existed on that date are considered when preparing the financial statements for the period.

        Events that occurred after the balance sheet date that provide information about conditions that existed after that date are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, if material.

p)  Critical judgments and estimates

        In preparing the financial statements and accounting estimates herein, management has made use of its best knowledge of past and present events and used certain assumptions in relation to future events.

        The most significant accounting estimates reflected in the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2005 are as follows:

        Estimates used are based on the best information available during the preparation of consolidated financial statements, although future unforeseeable events could occur and have an impact on the estimates. Changes to the estimates used by the management that occur after the date of these consolidated financial statements, are recognised in net income, in accordance with IAS 8, using a prospective methodology.

F-144

12.    Income Taxes

        PT-Multimédia and its subsidiaries are subject to Corporate Income Tax ("IRC") at a rate of 25% (22.5% for Cabo TV Madeirense and 17.5% for Cabo TV Açoreana), which is increased up to 10% through a municipal tax leading to an aggregate tax rate of approximately 27.5%. In calculating taxable income, to which the above tax rate is applied, non-tax-deductible amounts are added to or subtracted from book entries. These differences between book and taxable entries can be temporary or permanent.

        PT-Multimédia adopted the tax consolidation regime for groups of companies, which includes all 90% or more owned Portuguese subsidiaries, direct and indirect, that comply with the provision of article 63 of the Corporate Income Tax Law.

        In accordance with Portuguese tax legislation, income taxes are subject to review and adjustment by the tax authorities during four years following their filing (five years for social security, being ten years for the contributions made before the year ended 31 December 2001). Management believes, based on information from its tax advisors, that any adjustment which may result from such reviews or inspections, as well as other tax contingencies, would not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2005, except for the situations where provisions have been recognised (Note 32).

a)  Deferred taxes

F-148



        Deferred taxes on assets were recognized depending on the likelihood of taxable profits in the future that can be used to recover tax losses or deductible tax differences. This evaluation was based on the business plans of Group companies, which are reviewed and updated periodically.

        According to Portuguese legislation, tax loss carryforwards may be used to offset future taxable income for a subsequent six-year period. As at 31 December 2005 and 2004, tax loss carryforwards of PT-Multimédia matured as follows:

 
  2005
  2004
2005     3,259,000
2006   183,178,971   189,507,000
2007     5,684,000
2008   13,455,150   145,439,000
2009   311,981,853   317,019,000
2010     937,000
   
 
    508,615,974   661,845,000
   
 

        Of the total amount of the tax loss carryforwards, PT-Multimédia opted not to recognize a deferred tax asset of approximately Euro 50 million that arose from the individual activity of PT-Multimédia because their recovery is viewed as difficult.

b)  Reconciliation of income tax provision

        During 2005, the reconciliation between the nominal and effective income tax rates is as follows:

 
  2005
 
Income before taxes   134,174,608  
Statutory tax rate (including municipal taxes at a 10% rate)   27.5 %
   
 
Expected tax   36,898,017

34.    Shareholders' Equity

34.1 Share Capital

        As at 1 June 2005, following the decision taken at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and in connection with the issuance of European-style put warrants by PT-Multimédia, 2,348,514 ordinary shares owned by PT-Multimédia were cancelled (Note 34.3). Additionally, and following the decision of the Annual General Meeting, as at 1 June 2005 a change in the nominal value of the share capital from 50 Eurocents to 25 Eurocents per share was undertaken.

F-164


34.2.     Capital Issued Premium

        This caption results from premiums generated in capital increases made by PT-Multimédia. According to Portuguese law applicable to companies listed on stock exchanges under the regulation of the Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários ("CMVM", the Portuguese stock exchange regulator), these amounts can only be used to increase share capital or to absorb accumulated losses (without the need to first use other reserves). This amount cannot be used to pay dividends or to acquire treasury shares.

34.3.     Treasury Shares

        During 2005, resulting from the physical settlement of warrants issued by PT-Multimédia, the company acquired from the minority shareholders 2,348,514 shares, totalling Euro 50,493,051. As at 1 June 2005 these shares were cancelled (Note 34.1), with a non-distributable reserve in the amount of the nominal value of the cancelled shares having been recorded (Note 34.4). Additionally, as at 31 December 2005, PT-Multimédia had entered into equity swaps over 925,000 of its own shares, totalling Euro 8,520,000. In accordance with IFRS (IAS 32), the equity swaps are recognised as an effective acquisition of treasury shares, with the recognition of a corresponding financial liability.

34.4.     Reserves

Legal reserve

        Portuguese law and PT-Multimédia's bylaws provide that at least 5% of each year's profits must be allocated to a legal reserve until this reserve equals the minimum requirement of 20% of share capital. This reserve is not available for distribution to shareholders, except in the case of the liquidation of the company, but may be capitalized or used to absorb losses, once all other reserves and retained earnings have been exhausted.

Other reserves

        During 2005 the movements occurred in "Other Reserves" were as follows:

 
  Free reserves
  Reserves for cancelled treasury shares

        On 5 May 2005, following a decision taken at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of 28 April 2005, PT-Multimédia issued to its shareholders 1 European-style put warrant for each share held at that date. The warrants included the following rights: (1) in the case of physical settlement, for each 10 warrants owned, the holder had the right to sell 1 PT-Multimédia share for Euro 21.5; and (ii) in the case of financial settlement, the receipt of cash for each warrant equal to the difference between the strike price (Euro 21.5) and the reference price of the share on the exercise date. The exercise of these warrants occurred as at 24 May 2005, as follows:

 
   
   
  Value
 
   
  Shares acquired
 
  Total warrants
  Unit
  Total
Physical settlement   23,485,140   2,348,514   21.5   50,493,051

a)
Premium payed by PT-Multimédia corresponding to the difference between the strike price and the reference price of the share on the effective date of the transaction.

        The total amount spent in connection with the physical exercise of the warrants was directly recognized in the caption "Other reserves" and the amount spent in connection with the financial settlement was recognized: (1) Euro 44,441,968 as a reduction in shareholders' equity under the caption "Other reserves", corresponding to the difference between the strike price and the share price on the date the warrants were issued; and (i) Euro 3,484,549 related to a gain recognized in "Net Other Financial Expenses", corresponding to the change in the market value of the warrants until the exercise date. (Note 11)

        The reserve for cancelled treasury shares includes an amount related to undistributable reserves equivalent to the nominal amount of the cancelled shares (Euro 1,174,257), which has the same statutory treatment as the legal reserve.

38.    Legal claims

38.1.     Legal action TMDP

        Article 106 of Law #5/2004, February 10 (Electronic Communications Law) created, under article 13 of the Authorization Directive (Directive 2002/20/CE, March 7), the Taxa Municipal de Direitos de Passagem ("TMDP" Municipal Fee for Right of Way) as counterpart to the "laws and taxes

F-171



relative to the implantation, passage and crossing over of systems, equipment and any other resources of companies who offer electronic communications services to the public in a fixed location, of public and private municipal domain". The basis for the TMDP assessment is "each invoice issued by the companies that offer networks and electronic communications services accessible to the public in a fixed location, for each of the final clients of the corresponding municipality", with the TMDP being determined in a maximum percentage base of 0.25% of the value of these invoices. Some cities, in spite of the approval of the TMDP, have maintained charges called Occupation Taxes, with others opting for maintaining the latter taxes in detriment to the approval of TMDP. PT-Multimédia, based on legal opinions about this issue, believes that TMDP is the only tax that can be charged as compensation for the rights referred to above, namely the right to installation. Therefore, it believes that Occupation Taxes of a public thoroughfare charged by cities are illegal. It should be pointed out that there was already an appeal decision involving a city that subscribed to PT-Multimédia's understanding, finding that it is not possible to overlap TMDP and Occupation Taxes of public thoroughfares.

38.2.     Regulatory proceedings

        Within the context of verifying compliance with standards and regulations applicable to the Portugal Telecom Group, PT-Multimédia's operations are subject to investigations and inspections by the Competition Authority, ANACOM and the European Commission.

        Currently, investigations are being conducted by the Competition Authority with respect to the activity of PT-Multimédia, TV Cabo and PT Contéudos for alleged practices of restricting competition. In case it is decided that PT-Multimédia did not comply with applicable laws and regulations, fees and penalties could be applied under current legislation. Until now, only a citation of illegality has been issued against PT-Multimédia and TV Cabo for alleged prohibited practices under article 4, Law #18/2003, June 11, relating to a "Partnership Agreement" entered into by PT-Multimédia, TV Cabo and SIC—Sociedade Independente da Comunicação, S.A. ("SIC") on March 27, 2000 within the context of a concentration that was the object of prior notice relating to the acquisition of Lisboa TV—Informação e Multimédia, S.A. by SIC. Based on advice of its counsel, PT-Multimédia believes that, in principle, these proceedings will not have materially significant consequences likely to affect its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2005.

39.    Subsequent Events

        On 9 January 2006, an agreement was executed among Lusomundo Audiovisuais and the companies Atalanta Filmes Sociedade de Distribuição de Filmes, Lda., Madragoa—Produção de Filmes, S.A., Filmargem, Sociedade de Produção de Filmes, Lda., CLAP—Produção de Filmes, Lda., GER—Grupo de Estudos e Realizações, Lda., Gemini Films SARL, and Paulo José Condeixa de Araújo Branco, through which Lusomundo Audovisuais purchased from the other parties their shares of all the works that comprise the Madragoa Catalog for Euro 6,000,000. According to the Promissory Agreement executed on December 30th, 2005, 1,500,000 Euros were paid on that date, with the remaining 3.500.000 Euros paid on the date of execution of the definitive agreement.

        On 13 January 2006, Lusomundo Audovisuais and the companies Madragoa—Produção de Filmes, S.A. and Atalanta Filmes Sociedade de Distribuição de Filmes, Lda. executed an agreement to sell to

F-172



Lusomundo Audovisuais, for 500,000 Euros, which have been already paid, their contractual position in the Filmes Tóbis Agreement.

40.    Application of International Financial Reporting Standards

        PT-Multimédia has adopted International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") in 2005, and, in accordance with IFRS 1—"First-Time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards", has used 1 January 2004 to compute all transition adjustments. Before the adoption of IFRS, PT-Multimédia's consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with Portuguese generally accepted accounting principles (PGAAP). The adjustments to the financial statements recorded at 1 January 2004 were calculated retrospectively in accordance with IFRS 1.

40.1.     Main differences between IFRS and PGAAP

40.1.1.     Asset retirement obligation

        Under IFRS, the acquisition cost of tangible assets should include the net present value of any future dismantling or removal liabilities, if they can be reliably estimated and the cash outflow is likely to occur (Notes 3.g and 32). Under PGAAP, those liabilities should be recognised when the cost is incurred.

40.1.2.     Sale and lease-back transactions

        In the context of the development of its operations, the Group entered into Qualified Technological Equipment Transactions (Note 27) with respect to certain of its telecommunications equipment, and received up-front fees to enter in those transactions. Under IFRS, these transactions amounted to sale and lease-back transactions, and all gains obtained with the sale of the equipment should be recognised over the lease period, the assets should not be derecognised of the balance sheet and all special purpose vehicles ("SPV") should be consolidated by the entities that obtained the economic benefits of the transaction (Note 3.h.ix). Under PGAAP, gains were recognised in net income when obtained, and the SPVs were not consolidated due to the fact that PT-Multimédia does not hold the majority of their voting rights.

40.1.3.     Provisions for restructuring

        Under IFRS, provisions for restructuring can only be recognised when certain criteria are met, namely the existence of a plan approved by management, the ability to reasonably measure the obligation and the likelihood of a cash outflow, among others. Under PGAAP, the recognition of provisions is subject to criteria that depend on more judgment in recording provisions.

40.1.4.     Goodwill amortisation

        Under IFRS, goodwill recognised in the acquisition of financial investments is not amortised, being subject to periodic impairment tests (Note 2.a). Under PGAAP, goodwill is amortised through income, although also subject to periodic impairment tests. IFRS 1 established that the transition date for the

F-173



application of this rule is 1 January 2004, requiring the reversal of any amortization recorded after that date.

40.1.5.     Purchase price allocation

        Under IFRS, the purchase price should be allocated to the fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired, and the remaining portion to goodwill (Note 2.a). PT-Multimédia used an exemption provided by IRFS 1 and has only applied this rule under IFRS 3 to business combinations entered into after 1 January 2004. Under PGAAP, PT-Multimédia did not allocate the purchase price to intangibles in accordance with the criteria established in IFRS, usually registering it as goodwill.

40.1.6.     Start-up and research and development expenses

        Under IFRS, start-up expenses are recognised when incurred. Under PGAAP, start-up expenses are recognised as an intangible asset and are amortised on a straight-line basis.

        Under IFRS, expenses related to the research phase should be recognised when incurred, and development expenses may be recognised as an intangible and amortised for a specified period if a future economic benefit from the project can be demonstrated (Note 3.d). Under PGAAP, research and development expenses are recognised as an intangible asset and are amortised on a straight line basis for a specified period, so long as the related project has materialized.

40.1.7.     Deferred costs

        Under IFRS, deferred costs related to training, marketing and publicity and maintenance and repairs are recognised when incurred. Under PGAAP, these costs can be recognised as an intangible asset and amortised on a straight line basis for a specified period, if any future benefit is expected to occur.

40.1.8.     Reclassifications

        Under IFRS, certain reclassifications were made to the financial statements under PGAAP. The major reclassifications were as follows:

PT Multimédia—Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, S.A.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Amounts stated in Euros)

1.    Introduction

        PT Multimédia—Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, S.A. ("PT Multimédia" or "the Company") was formed by Portugal Telecom, SGPS, S.A. ("Portugal Telecom") on 15 July 1999 for the purpose of developing the multimedia business. Currently, the multimedia business undertaken by PT Multimédia and its subsidiaries ("Group" or "PT Multimédia Group") includes cable and satellite television services, the distribution and sale of DVDs, cinema exhibition and film distribution. PT Multimedia produces premium movie channels for its pay TV platform, which channels are also sold to other interested cable television distributors.

        Cable and satellite television services are rendered by CATVP—TV Cabo Portugal, S.A. ("TV Cabo Portugal") and its subsidiaries. TV Cabo was created on 3 November 1992 and began its activities on 29 July 1993, which include: a) cable and satellite television; b) electronic communications services, including data and multimedia communications services; and c) consulting, advisory and other services directly or indirectly related to the activities mentioned above.

        In 2004, Law 5/2004 (Electronic Communications Law) was approved, which sets forth the regime for electronic communications networks and services, and revokes Law 91/97, Decree Law no. 381-A/97 and Decree Law 241/97, among others. In accordance with the Electronic Communications Law, which substantially changed the system under which TV Cabo Portugal and its subsidiaries operate, a general authorization system is now in effect whereby companies desiring to furnish electronic communication networks and services must simply provide the National Communications Authority ("ANACOM") with a brief description of the network or service they seek to start up and the commencement date thereof. ANACOM then issues a statement confirming this notification and describing in detail the rights concerning access, interconnection and installation of resources. As a follow-up to this new Law, ANACOM will publish regulations for implementing the Electronic Communications Law, as well as making any changes and adaptations to registers, licenses and authorizations issued pursuant to the Law, as is the case with TV Cabo Portugal and its subsidiaries.

        The Electronic Communications Law does not set limits for exercising activities, nor rules for reversion of assets, as was the case with the previous legal provisions with regard to cable network operator activities.

        PT Conteúdos—Actividade de Televisão e de Produção de Conteúdos, S.A. ("PT Conteúdos"), whose main activities involve television operations and content production, currently produces the Premium movie channels, distributed through the channels of TV Cabo Portugal and its subsidiaries, and also manages the advertising slots for some of these channels.

        Lusomundo Audiovisuais, S.A. ("Lusomundo Audiovisuais") and Lusomundo Cinemas, S.A. ("Lusomundo Cinemas"), and its subsidiaries undertake their activities in the area of audiovisuals, which includes the distribution and sale of DVDs, film distribution and cinema exhibition.

        The shares of PT Multimédia are traded on the Euronext Lisbon Stock Exchange and, as at 31 December 2006, a total of 180,609,700 shares, corresponding to 58.43% of the share capital of the company, are owned by Portugal Telecom, SGPS, S.A..

        The notes here in follow the order in which the items are presented in the consolidated financial statements.

F-191



        The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2006 were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue on 19 March 2007.

2.    Basis of presentation

        The consolidated financial statements are presented in Euros, which is the currency of the majority of the Group's operations. Financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Euros according to the accounting principles described in Note 3.

        The consolidated financial statements of PT Multimédia are prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and as adopted by the European Union ("EU"), including all interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee ("IFRIC") that were in effect on the date of approval of the financial statements. For PT Multimedia, there are no differences between IFRS as adopted by the European Union and IFRS published by the International Accounting Standards Board.

        The consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming the continuity of the operations, based on accounting records of all subsidiaries included in the consolidation (Exhibit I.1).

        The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on the best information possible as of the date of preparation of the financial statements (Note 3).

a)  Consolidation principles

Controlled entities

        PT Multimédia has fully consolidated the financial statements of all controlled entities. Control is achieved where the Group has the majority of the voting rights at the General Meeting of Shareholders, directly or indirectly, or has the power to determine the financial and operating policies of an entity. In any case, where the group does not have a direct interest in the capital of the entity but in substance controls the entity, the financial statements of the entity are fully consolidated. Entities that fall in these categories are indicated in Exhibit I.1.

        The interest of any third party in the shareholders' equity and net income of fully consolidated companies is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated income statement under the caption "Minority interests" (Note 16). Losses applicable to the minorities in excess of the minority's interest in the subsidiary's equity are allocated against the interest of the Group, except to the extent that the minority has a binding obligation and is able to make an additional investment to cover the losses. If the controlled entity later reports profits, the Company appropriates the profits to the extent of the losses attributable to minority interests that were previously absorbed by the Group.

        From 1 January 2004, assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of an acquired subsidiary are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Any excess of the purchase price costs over the fair value of identifiable net assets is recognised as goodwill. If the purchase price is lower than the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, the difference is recognised as a gain in the net income for the period the acquisition occurs. Minority interests are presented proportionally to the fair value of identifiable net assets and liabilities.

F-192



        The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of profit and loss from the effective date of the acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.

        All intra-group transactions and balances are eliminated in the consolidation process. Gains obtained in intra-group sales of affiliated companies are also eliminated on the consolidation process.

        Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to adjust their accounting policies in line with those adopted by the Group.

Interests in joint ventures

        PT Multimédia has proportionally consolidated the financial statements of jointly controlled entities beginning on the date the joint control is effective. Under this method, assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the entity are added, on a proportional basis, to the corresponding consolidated caption. Financial investments are classified as jointly controlled entities if the joint control agreement clearly demonstrates the existence of joint control.

        All transactions and balances with jointly controlled entities are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the joint venture.

Investments in associates

        An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in decisions relating to the financial and operating policies of the entity, but not control or joint control.

        Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the associate recognised at the date of acquisition is recognised as goodwill. The goodwill is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is assessed annually for impairment. If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of identifiable net assets, the difference is recognised as a gain in the net income for the period the acquisition occurs.

        Financial investments in associated companies are accounted for under the equity method (Exhibit I.2). Under this method, investments in associated companies are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost, adjusted periodically for the Group's share in the results of the associated company, recorded as part of financial results and other changes recorded against net assets acquired. In addition, financial investments are adjusted for any impairment losses that may occur.

        Losses in associated companies in excess of the cost of acquisition are not recognised, except where the Group has assumed any commitment to cover those losses.

        Dividends received from associated companies are recognised as a reduction in the value of financial investments.

Non-current assets held for sale

        Non-current assets (or discontinued operations) are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition

F-193



is regarded as met only when: (1) the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (2) management has assumed a commitment to the sale; and (3) the sale is expected to be completed within 12 months. Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of the assets' previous carrying amounts and the fair value less costs to sell.

Goodwill

        Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary or jointly controlled entity recognised at the date of acquisition, in accordance with IFRS 3. Pursuant to the exemption provided in IFRS 1, the Group used the provisions of IFRS 3 only for acquisitions that occurred after 1 January 2004. Goodwill related to acquisitions made before 1 January 2004 was recorded at its carrying amount as of that date, rather than being recalculated in accordance with IFRS 3, and is subject to annual impairment tests thereafter.

        Goodwill is recorded as an asset and included under the captions "Intangible assets" (Note 28), in the case of a subsidiary or jointly controlled entity, or under "Investment in group companies" (Note 26) in the case of an associated company. Goodwill is not amortised but is tested for impairment on an annual basis or whenever there are indications of a loss of value. Any impairment is recorded immediately as an expense in the income statement in the period it occurs and cannot be reversed in a subsequent period.

        On disposal of a subsidiary, jointly controlled entity or associate, the goodwill allocated to that investment is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal.

b)  Changes in the consolidated Group

        There were no relevant changes in the Consolidated Group.

3.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates

a)  Balance sheet classification

        Assets to be realized and liabilities to be settled within one year from the date of the balance sheet are classified as current assets and liabilities, respectively.

b)  Inventories

        Inventories basically comprise terminal equipment (cable Tv and internet access) and DVD's (audiovisuals business), are stated at average acquisition cost. An adjustment to the carrying value of inventories is recognised when, due to technological obsolescence, use of inventory is no longer foreseen or when the net realizable value is lower than the average cost, through the net income of the period the loss occurs, under the caption "Cost of products sold".

F-194



c)  Sport exhibition rights

        Sport exhibition rights, for the broadcast of Sporting events to take place in the period of one year, are stated at acquisition cost, under the caption "Deferred Cost". These costs are recognised when the service is rendered.

d)  Distribution rights to audiovisual content

        Films' distribution costs acquired by Lusomundo Audiovisuais, are recognised as occurs the respective uses weighed with the maximum stated period of exploration of respective contracts. Advance payments made to the content producers are recognised in "Advances to suppliers" until the premiere of the movie. These amounts are reclassified to "Deferred costs"

e)  Tangible assets

        Tangible assets are stated at acquisition, net of accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, and investment subsidies, where applicable. Acquisition cost includes, in addition to the amount paid to acquire the asset, (1) direct expenses related with the acquisition process; and (2) the estimated cost of dismantling or removing of the assets (Notes 3.h and 34).

        Tangible assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis from the month they are completed or are available for use. The amount of the asset to be depreciated is deducted from any residual value. The depreciation rates correspond to the following estimated average useful lives, defined as a function of the expected use of the asset:

 
  Years
Buildings and other construction   5–50
Basic equipment:    
  Network installations and equipment   4–20
  Terminal equipment   4–5
  Other telecommunications equipment   5
  Other basic equipment   3–10
Transportation equipment   3–8
Tools and dies   4–10
Administrative equipment   3–10
Other tangible fixed assets   4–10

        Estimated losses resulting from the replacement of equipment before the end of their useful lives, for reasons of technological obsolescence, are recognised as a deduction from the corresponding asset's value against the results for the period. The cost of recurring maintenance and repairs is charged to net income as incurred. Costs associated to significant renewals and improvements are capitalized, if any future economic benefits are expected and those benefits can be reliably measured. Depreciation periods for those capitalized assets correspond to the period of the expected recovery of the investment.

        When an asset is recorded as held for sale, its carrying amount is classified in current assets held for sale, and depreciation ceases. The gain or loss arising on the disposal of a tangible asset is

F-195



determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and is recognised in net income under the caption "Losses on disposals of fixed assets, net".

f)  Intangible assets

        Intangible assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets are recognised only if any future economic benefits are expected and those benefits can be reliably measured.

        Intangible assets include primarily basically goodwill (Note 2.a), lease rights, software licenses and other contractual rights.

        Internally generated intangible assets, namely current research and development expenditures, are recognised in net income when incurred. Development expenditures can only be recognised initially as an intangible asset if the Company demonstrates the technical ability to complete the project and put the asset in use or available for sale.

        Intangible assets, except goodwill, are amortised on a straight-line basis from the month they are available for use, during the following periods:

 
  Years
 
  Period of
the agreement

Lease rights    
Software licenses   3–8
Other intangible assets   3–8

g)  Impairment of tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill

        The Group assesses annually, at the balance sheet date, its tangible and intangible assets for impairment losses. This assessment is also made if any event or change in circumstances is identified that indicates that the recorded value of the asset may not be recovered. In case of any such indication, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss.

        Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value in use. The fair value less cost to sell is the amount that could be received in a transaction with an independent and knowledgeable entity, minus the direct costs related with the sale. The value in use is the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value, based on the continuing use of the asset and its disposition at the end of its useful life. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised immediately in net income under the caption "Depreciation and amortisation".

        A reversal of previously recorded impairment losses is recorded when there are indications that these losses no longer exist or have decreased. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in the income statement in the period in which it occurs. However, a reversal of an impairment loss may be

F-196



recorded only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been recorded (net of depreciation and amortization) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior periods.

h)  Provisions and contingent liabilities

        Provisions are recognised when (i) the Group has a present obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of internal resources will be required to settle the obligation and (ii) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

        Provisions for restructuring are only recognised if a detailed and formal plan exists and if the plan is communicated to the parties involved.

        Provisions for dismantling and removing assets and renovations are recognised from the day the assets are in use, in accordance with the best estimates at that date (Notes 3.e and 34). The amount of the provision recorded reflects effect of the passage of time, with updates to that amount recognised in net income under the caption "Net interest expense".

        Provisions are updated as of the balance sheet date, based on the best estimate of the Group's management.

i)  Subsidies

        Subsidies from the Portuguese Government and from the European Union are recognised at fair value when the receivable is probable and the Company can comply with all requirements of the subsidy program.

        Subsidies for training and other operating activities are recognised in net income when the related expenses are recognised.

        Subsidies to acquire tangible assets are deducted from the carrying amount of the related assets.

j)  Financial Assets and liabilities

        Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Group's balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

F-197


F-198


F-199


k)  Leases

        Leases are classified (1) as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee and (2) as operating leases when substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the lessee.

        The classification of leases depends on the substance of the transaction and not on the form of the contract.

        Assets acquired under leases and the corresponding liability to the lessor are accounted for under the finance method, with the assets, principal payments and outstanding balance recorded in accordance with the lease payment plan. Interest included in the rents and the depreciation of the assets is recognised in net income in applicable period.

        Under operating leases, rents are recognised on a straight-line basis during the period of the lease.

l)  Taxation

        Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

        PT Multimédia adopted the tax consolidation regime in Portugal for groups of companies. The provision for income taxes is determined on the basis of the estimated taxable income for all the companies in which it holds, directly or indirectly, 90% or more of the share capital and that are Portuguese residents and subject to the Income Tax for Collective Persons (IRC).

        The remaining Group companies, not covered by the tax consolidation regime, are taxed individually based on their respective taxable income at the applicable tax rates.

        Income tax is recognised in accordance with IAS 12. The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year and on deferred tax, which is based on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, as well as based on reportable tax losses on the date of the balance sheet.

        Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that these may be used to reduce future taxable profits or when there are deferred tax liabilities whose reversal is expected in the same period in which the deferred tax assets are expected to be reversed. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

F-200



        The amount of tax attributable to current taxes or deferred taxes resulting from transactions or events recognized in reserves is recorded directly in the applicable shareholders' equity captions and does not affect the results for the period.

m)  Revenue recognition

        PT Multimédia's revenue arises principally from:

        Whenever applicable, revenues from the sale of goods and services on bundle offers, are allocated to each of their components and recognized separately in accordance with the criteria defined for each, as follows:

Cable and satellite television services

        Revenues from cable and satellite television services result primarily from and are recognised as follows: (i) monthly subscription fees for the use of the service; (ii) amounts billed for the installation of the service and (iii) rental of equipment. Revenues from monthly subscriptions and installation are recognized in the period when the service is rendered to the customer, and revenues from the rental of equipment are recognized during the rental period.

Internet access services

        Revenue from Internet access services, provided through the cable network, is mainly from monthly subscriptions and/or use of the Internet, depending on the mode chosen by the customer. This revenue is recognized for the period in which the service is provided.

Cable TV advertising

        Advertising revenues from cable TV and related discounts are recognised in the period when the advertising is run, deducted from the related discounts.

Movie exhibition and distribution services

        Revenues from the exhibition of films result from the sale of cinema tickets, and revenues from the distribution of films result from the sale to other cinema operators of exhibition rights acquired from film producers and distributors. These revenues are recognised in the period of the exhibition or in the period of the sale of the rights, as applicable.

F-201



Sales of DVDs and terminal equipment

        Revenues from sales of DVDs and terminal equipment are recognised in the period when the sale occurs.

        As of the balance sheet date, trade receivables are adjusted for the estimated risks of collection, with unrecoverable amounts recognized in net income of the period under the caption "Provisions and adjustments".

        All other revenues and expenses are recognised when incurred on an accrual basis, regardless of the time of receipt or payment.

n)  Foreign currency transactions and balances

        Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Euros at the rates of exchange prevailing at the time the transactions are entered into. At the balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted to reflect the exchange rates prevailing at such date. The resulting gains or losses on foreign exchange transactions are recognised in net income, except for unrealized exchange differences in long-term intra-group balances, representing an extension of the related investment, are recognised in shareholders' equity under the caption "Other reserves".

        The financial statements of subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Euros, using the following exchange rates:

        The effect of translation differences from the conversion of financial statements denominated in foreign currency is recognised in shareholders' equity under the caption "Other reserves".

o)  Borrowing costs

        Borrowing costs related to loans are recognised in net income when incurred.

        The Group does not capitalise any borrowing costs, even those related to loans to finance the acquisition, construction or production of any asset.

p)  Cash flow statements

        Consolidated cash flow statements are prepared using the direct method. The Group classifies all highly liquid investments purchased, with original maturity of three months or less and for which the risk of change in value is insignificant, as cash and cash equivalents. The "Cash and cash equivalents"

F-202



item presented in the cash flow statement also includes a negative amount related to overdrafts, classified in the balance sheet under "Short-term debt".

        Cash flows are classified in the cash flows statement according to three main categories, depending on their nature: (1) operating activities; (2) investing activities; and (3) financing activities.

        Cash flows from operating activities include collections from customers, payments to suppliers, payments to personnel and other collections and payments related to operating activities.

        Cash flows from investing activities include acquisitions and disposals of investments in associated companies and the receipsts and payments from the sale and purchase of tangible and intangible assets.

        Cash flows from financing activities include borrowing and repayments of debt, acquisition and sale of treasury shares and payments of dividends to shareholders.

q)  Subsequent events

        Events that occurred after the balance sheet date that provide additional information about conditions that existed on that date are considered when preparing the financial statements for the period.

        Events that occurred after the balance sheet date that provide information about conditions that existed after that date are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, if material.

r)  Critical judgments and estimates

        In preparing the financial statements and accounting estimates herein, management has made use of its best knowledge of past and present events and used certain assumptions in relation to future events.

        The most significant accounting estimates reflected in the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2006 are as follows:

        Estimates used are based on the best information available during the preparation of consolidated financial statements, although future unforeseeable events could occur and have an impact on the estimates. Changes to the estimates used by the management that occur after the date of these consolidated financial statements are recognised in net income in accordance with IAS 8, using a prospective methodology.

        The main estimates used by the management are described in the corresponding notes to the financial statements.

F-203



4.    Errors, estimates and changes in accounting policies and estimates

        During 2006 and 2005, there were no changes in the accounting policies used by the Group, when compared to the ones used in preparing the financial statements of the previous year, which are presented for comparative purposes. In addition, the financial statements for the years ended 31 December 2006 and 2005 do not include the recognition of any material errors related to previous periods.

5.    Exchange rates used to translate foreign currency financial statements

14.    Income taxes

        PT Multimédia and its subsidiaries are subject to Corporate Income Tax ("IRC") at a rate of 25% (22.5% for Cabo TV Madeirense and 17.5% for Cabo TV Açoreana), which is increased up to 10% through a municipal tax leading to an aggregate tax rate of approximately 27.5%. As from 1 January 2007, the municipal tax will amount to a maximum of 1.5% of collectible profit, leading to a maximum aggregate tax rate of 26.5%. The impact of this change in deferred taxes was recorded in 2006 in net income or directly in accumulated earnings, in accordance with the way the respective deferred taxes were recorded. In calculating taxable income, to which the above tax rate is applied, non-tax-deductible amounts are added to or subtracted from book entries. These differences between book and taxable entries can be temporary or permanent.

F-207



        PT Multimédia adopted the tax consolidation regime for groups of companies, which includes all 90% or more owned Portuguese subsidiaries, direct and indirect, that comply with the provision of Article 63 of the Corporate Income Tax Law.

        In accordance with Portuguese tax legislation, income taxes are subject to review and adjustment by the tax authorities for four years following their filing (five years for social security, and ten years for the contributions made before the year ended 31 December 2001), except when there have been tax losses, tax benefits have been granted or inspections or challenges relating to such matters are in progress in which, depending on the circumstances, the deadlines are extended or suspended. Management believes, based on information from its tax advisors, that any adjustment which may result from such reviews or inspections, as well as other tax contingencies, would not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2006, except for the situations where provisions have been recognised (Note 34).

        In 2005, the movements recorded in "Changes in the consolidation perimeter" refer essentially to the deferred tax assets and liabilities of the Lusomundo Media group, disposed during 2005 (Note 15).

        Deferred taxes assets were recognized depending on the likelihood of taxable profits in the future that can be used to recover tax losses or deductible tax differences. This assessment was based on the business plans of Group companies, which are reviewed and updated periodically.

        According to Portuguese legislation, tax loss carryforwards may be used to offset future taxable income for a subsequent six-year period. As at 31 December 2006 and 2005, tax loss carryforwards of PT Multimédia matured as follows:

 
  2006
  2005
2006     183,178,971

        As at 31 December 2005 and 2004, these captions refer to the amounts outstanding under QTE transactions, as described in Note 3.j).(ix).

36.    Shareholders' equity

36.1 Share Capital

        The Annual General Meeting of 19 April 2006 approved a share capital increase of Euro 173,094,224 and a subsequent share capital reduction of Euro 219,458,748. The share capital increase was effective on 12 May 2006 through the incorporation of capital issued premiums, legal reserves and reserves for treasury shares. The share capital reduction was effective 13 September 2006 through the transfer of that amount to "Accumulated earnings". Following these transactions, PT Multimedia's fully subscribed and paid-up share capital as at 31 December 2006, amounted to Euro 30,096,683 and is represented by 309,096,828 shares with a nominal value of ten cents each with the following distribution:

        All the Class A shares are held by Portugal Telecom. In accordance with Portugal Telecom's Articles of Association, the Class A shares have special voting rights that allow the holders, by majority vote of that class of shares, to veto certain actions of the shareholders of PT Multimédia, namely the following:

36.2.     Capital issued premium

        This caption resulted from premiums generated in capital increases made by PT Multimedia. According to Portuguese law applicable to companies listed on stock exchanges under the supervision

F-225



of Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários ("CMVM", the Portuguese securities and stock exchange regulator), these amounts can only be used to increase share capital or to absorb accumulated losses (without it being necessary to first use other reserves). This amount cannot be used to pay dividends or to acquire treasury shares. The total capital issued premium was used in the share capital increase effective on 11 May 2006, as approved at the Annual General Meeting of 19 April 2006.

36.3.     Treasury shares

        As of 31 December 2006, PT Multimedia had contracted equity swaps on 925,000 of its own shares with a value of Euro 9,001,900 (Note 30), which allow PT Multimedia to choose between cash settlement and physical settlement, the latter permitting PT Multimedia to acquire the shares in question. In accordance with IFRS (IAS 32), these instruments should be recognized as the effective acquisition of own shares, and a financial liability should be recorded in an amount equal to the notional amount of the contract.

36.4.     Reserves

Reserve Legal

        Portuguese law and PT Multimédia's bylaws provide that at least 5% of each year's profits must be allocated to a legal reserve until this reserve equals the minimum requirement of 20% of share capital. This reserve is not available for distribution to shareholders, except in the case of the liquidation of the company, but may be capitalized or used to absorb losses, once all other reserves and retained earnings have been exhausted. A portion of legal reserve amounting to Euro 12,631,736 was used in the share capital increase effective on 12 May 2006, as approved at the Annual General Meeting of 19 April 2006.

40.    Litigation

40.1     Legal action TMDP

        Article 106 of Law #5/2004, February 10 (Electronic Communications Law) created, under Article 13 of the Authorization Directive (Directive 2002/20/CE, March 7), the Taxa Municipal de Direitos de Passagem ("TMDP", or Municipal Fee for Right of Way) as counterpart to the "laws and taxes relative to the implantation, passage and crossing over by systems, equipment and any other resources of companies who offer electronic communications services to the public of fixed location in the public and private municipal domain". The basis for the TMDP assessment is "each invoice issued by the companies that offer networks and electronic communications services accessible to the public in a fixed location, for each of the final clients of the corresponding municipality", with the TMDP being assessed based on a maximum percentage of 0.25% of the value of these invoices. Some cities, in addition to the approval of the TMDP, have maintained charges called Occupation Taxes, with others opting for maintaining the latter taxes rather than approved the TMDP. PT Multimédia, based on legal opinions on this issue, believes that TMDP is the only tax that can be charged as compensation for the rights referred to above, namely the right to installation. Therefore, it believes that Occupation Taxes relating to a public thoroughfare charged by cities are illegal. It should be pointed out that there was already an appeal decision involving a city that subscribed to PT Multimédia's understanding, finding that it is not possible to overlap TMDP and Occupation Taxes of public thoroughfares.

40.2.     Regulatory proceedings

        PT Multimedia and TV Cabo were also accused, in September 2005, of allegedly abusive practices under Article 4 of Law 18/2003 (Portuguese Competition Law), following the execution, in March 2000, of a "Partnership Agreement" among PT Multimédia, TV Cabo and SIC-Sociedade Independente de Comunicação, SA (SIC) in connection with the acquisition, submitted to prior notification, by SIC of Lisboa TV—Informação e Multimedia, SA. In response to this accusation, PT Multimédia and TV Cabo contested the Competition Authority allegations. However, in the beginning of August 2006, the Competition Authority issued a decision imposing on PT Multimédia a fine of Euro 2,5 million, following which PT Multimédia and TV Cabo appealed to the Commerce Court of Lisbon on 8 September 2006. The appeal suspends the decision of the Competition Authority. Although the possibility of the application of penalties cannot be excluded in those cases and in other cases, PT Multimédia believes that, based on the information provided by its counsel, these claims should not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2006.

41.    Subsequent events

        On 1 February 2007, Lusomundo Audiovisuais entered into contracts with Palm Investment Partners and Gary Barber Living Trust, headquartered in Los Angeles, California, relating to the sale of all of its interests in capital stock of Cypress Entertainment Group, Inc. and Spyglass Entertainment Group, LLC, for the amount of U.S.$746,194 (Euro 567,189). The settlement of this amount occurred in March 2007. There had been a provision for the full amount of these amounts (Note 16), and the sale therefore generated a gain of Euro 567 thousand.

(i)
On 19 April 2006, PT Multimedia approved a share capital increase of Euro 173,094,224 through incorporation of capital issued premium, legal reserves and reserves for treasury shares of Euro 159,288,231, Euro 12,631,736 and Euro 1,174,257, respectively. On 13 September 2006 and 24 April 2007, PT Multimedia approved share capital reductions of Euro 219,458,748 and Euro 27,818,715, respectively, transferring these amounts to distributable reserves.

(ii)
As at 31 December 2006, PT Multimedia had contracted equity swaps for 925,000 own shares totalling Euro 9,001,900, which in accordance with IFRS (IAS 32) was recognised as an effective acquisition of treasury shares, requiring the recognition of a corresponding financial liability. During the first half of 2007, these equity swaps were cash settled, and as a result, the corresponding treasury shares and the financial liability of Euro 9,001,900 were cancelled. In addition, PT Multimedia received an amount of Euro 2,163,792 (Note 13) corresponding to the difference between the exercise price of the equity swap and the PTM share price at the date of settlement.

(iii)
This amount is primarily related to the difference between the 2005 and 2006 results of subsidiary and affiliated companies considered in preparation of the Company's consolidated statements and the dividends distributed by those companies during 2006 and 2007 in the amount of Euro 25,749,732 and Euro 5,897,519, respectively.

PT Multimédia—Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, S.A.

Notes to the Consolidated Financials Statements

(Amounts stated in Euros)

1.    Introduction

        PT Multimédia—Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, S.A. ("PT Multimedia", "PTM" or "the Company") was formed by Portugal Telecom, SGPS, S.A. ("Portugal Telecom") on 15 July 1999 for the purpose of developing multimedia businesses. Currently, the multimedia businesses undertaken by PT Multimedia and its subsidiaries ("Group" or "PTM Group") include cable and satellite television services, voice and internet access services, the distribution and sale of DVDs, pay TV advertising and cinema exhibition and film distribution. PT Multimedia produces premium movie channels for its pay TV platform and for reselling to other cable television distributors.

        Cable and satellite television services are rendered by CATVP—TV Cabo Portugal, S.A. and its subsidiaries (together "TV Cabo"). TV Cabo was created on 3 November 1992 and began its activities on 29 July 1993, which include: a) cable and satellite television; b) electronic communications services, including data and multimedia communications services; c) voice over internet service provider ("VOIP") and d) consulting, advisory and other services directly or indirectly related to the activities mentioned above.

        In 2004, Law 5/2004 (Electronic Communications Law) was approved, which sets forth the regime for electronic communication networks and services and revokes Law 91/97, Decree Law 381-A/97 and Decree Law 241/97, among others. In accordance with the Electronic Communications Law, which substantially changed the system under which TV Cabo and its subsidiaries operate, a general authorization system is now in effect whereby companies desiring to provide electronic communication networks and services must simply provide the National Communications Authority ("ANACOM") with a brief description of the network or service they seek to start up and the commencement date thereof. ANACOM then issues a statement confirming this notification and describing in detail the rights concerning access, interconnection and installation of resources. As a follow-up to the Electronic Communications Law, ANACOM will publish regulations for implementing purposes, as well as making any changes and adaptations to registers, licenses and authorizations issued pursuant to the Law, as is the case with TV Cabo and its subsidiaries. The Electronic Communications Law does not set limits for exercising activities, nor rules for reversion of assets, as was the case with the previous legal provisions with regard to cable network operator activities.

        PT Conteúdos—Actividade de Televisão e de Produção de Conteúdos, S.A. ("PT Conteúdos"), whose main activities involve television operations and content production, currently produces the premium movie channels distributed through TV Cabo and other cable network operators, and also manages the advertising slots for certain channels distributed by TV Cabo.

        Lusomundo Audiovisuais, S.A. ("Lusomundo Audiovisuais") and Lusomundo Cinemas, S.A. ("Lusomundo Cinemas") undertake their activities in the area of audiovisuals, which includes the distribution and sale of DVDs, film distribution and cinema exhibition.

        The shares of PT Multimedia are traded on the Euronext Lisbon Stock Exchange and, as at 30 June 2007, a total of 180,609,700 shares, corresponding to 58.43% of the share capital of the company, are owned by Portugal Telecom, including 102,000 Class A shares (Note 36.1).

        The consolidated financial statements as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2007 were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue on 21 September 2007.

F-243



2.    Basis of presentation

        The consolidated financial statements are presented in Euros, which is the currency of the majority of the Group's operations. Financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Euros according to the accounting principles described in Note 3.

        The consolidated financial statements of PT Multimedia are prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and adopted by the European Union ("EU"), including all interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee ("IFRIC") that were in effect on the date of approval of the financial statements. For PT Multimedia, there are no differences between IFRS as adopted by the European Union and IFRS published by the International Accounting Standards Board.

        The consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming the continuity of the operations, based on accounting records of all subsidiaries included in the consolidation (Exhibit 1.1).

        The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on the best information possible as of the date of preparation of the financial statements (Note 3).

a)  Consolidation principles

Controlled entities

        PT Multimedia has fully consolidated the financial statements of all controlled entities. Control is achieved where the PTM Group has the majority of the voting rights at the General Meeting of Shareholders, directly or indirectly, or has the power to determine the financial and operating policies of an entity. In cases where the Group does not have a direct interest in the capital of the entity but in substance controls the entity, the financial statements of the entity are fully consolidated. Any entities that fall in these categories are indicated in Exhibit 1.1.

        The interest of any third party in the shareholders' equity and net income of fully consolidated companies is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated income statement under the caption "Minority interests" (Note 16). Any losses applicable to the minorities in excess of the minority's interest in the subsidiary's equity are allocated against the interest of the Group, except to the extent that the minority has a binding obligation and is able to make an additional investment to cover those losses. If the controlled entity later reports profits, the Company appropriates the profits to the extent of the losses attributable to minority interests that were previously absorbed by the Group.

        Assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of an acquired subsidiary are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Any excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of identifiable net assets is recognised as goodwill. If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, the difference is recognised as a gain in the period the acquisition occurs. Minority interests are presented proportionally to the fair value of identifiable net assets and liabilities.

        The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the consolidated income statement from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.

F-244



        All intra-group transactions and balances are eliminated in the consolidation process. Gains obtained in intra-group sales of affiliated companies are also eliminated on the consolidation process.

        When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries in order to align their accounting policies with those adopted by the Group.

Interests in joint ventures

        PT Multimedia has proportionally consolidated the financial statements of jointly controlled entities beginning on the date the joint control is effective. Under this method, assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the entity are added, on a proportional basis, to the corresponding consolidated caption. Financial investments are classified as jointly controlled entities if the joint control agreement clearly demonstrates the existence of joint control. Any entities that fall in these categories are indicated in Exhibit 1.3.

        All transactions and balances with jointly controlled entities are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the joint venture.

        The only joint-venture company of the Group is Sport TV, S.A. ("Sport TV"), 50% of which is controlled by PT Conteúdos and the other 50% by Sportinvest, SGPS, S.A. ("Sportinvest", a holding company of the Controlinvest Group).

Investments in associates

        An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in decisions relating to the financial and operating policies of the entity, but not control or joint control.

        Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the associate, at the date of acquisition, is recognised as goodwill. The goodwill is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is assessed annually for impairment. If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of identifiable net assets, the difference is recognised as a gain in the period the acquisition occurs.

        Financial investments in associated companies are accounted for under the equity method (Exhibit 1.2). Under this method, investments in associated companies are carried at cost in the consolidated balance sheet, adjusted periodically for the Group's share in the results of the associated company, recorded on the income statements under the caption "Equity in losses (earnings) of associated companies, net". In addition, financial investments are adjusted for any impairment losses that may occur.

        Losses in associated companies in excess of the cost of acquisition are not recognised, except where the Group has assumed any commitment to cover those losses.

        Dividends received from associated companies are recognised as a reduction to the caring value of financial investments.

F-245



Non-current assets held for sale

        Non-current assets (or discontinued operations) are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when: (1) the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (2) management has assumed a commitment to the sale; and (3) the sale is expected to be completed within twelve months. Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of the assets' previous carrying amounts and the fair value less costs to sell.

Goodwill

        Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary, jointly controlled entity or associated company and is recognised at the date of acquisition, in accordance with IFRS 3. Pursuant to the exemption provided in IFRS 1, the Group used the provisions of IFRS 3 only for acquisitions that occurred after 1 January 2004. Goodwill related to acquisitions made before that time was recorded at its carrying amount, rather than being recalculated in accordance with IFRS 3, and is subject to annual impairment tests thereafter.

        Goodwill is recorded as an asset and included under the caption "Intangible assets" (Note 28) in the case of a subsidiary or jointly controlled entity, or under "Investments in group companies" (Note 26) in the case of an associated company. Goodwill is not amortised but is tested for impairment on an annual basis or whenever there are indications of a loss of value. Any impairment is recorded immediately as an expense in the income statement in the period it occurs and cannot be reversed in a subsequent period.

        On disposal of a subsidiary, jointly controlled entity or associate, the goodwill allocated to that investment is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal.

b)  Changes in the consolidated Group

        There were no relevant changes in the Consolidated Group during 2006 and the first half of 2007.

3.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates

a)  Current classification

        Assets to be realized and liabilities to be settled within one year from the date of the balance sheet are classified as current assets and liabilities, respectively.

b)  Inventories

        Inventories are stated at average acquisition cost. An adjustment to the carrying value of inventories is recognised when, due to technological obsolescence, use of inventory is no longer foreseen or when the net realizable value is lower than the average cost. This adjustment is recognized in the income statement of the period when the loss occurs under the caption "Cost of products sold" (Note 9).

F-246



c)  Sport exhibition rights

        Sport exhibition rights for the broadcast of sporting events are stated at acquisition cost under the caption "Prepaid expenses". These costs are recognised when the corresponding sport exhibition rights are used.

d)  Distribution rights to audiovisual content

        Costs associated with distribution rights of audiovisual contents acquired by Lusomundo Audiovisuais for exhibition are accounted for in the income statement during the period the audiovisual content is exhibited, considering the maximum period of the distribution right under the contract. Advance payments made to audiovisual content producers are recorded under the caption "Advancements to suppliers" until the first exhibition. After that, they are transferred to the caption "Deferred costs".

e)  Tangible assets

        Tangible assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses and investment subsidies, when applicable. Acquisition cost includes, in addition to the amount paid to acquire the asset, direct expenses related to the acquisition process, and the estimated cost of dismantling or removing of the assets (Notes 3.h and 34).

        Tangible assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis from the month they are completed or are available for use. The amount of the asset to be depreciated is deducted from any residual value, if it is measurable. The depreciation rates correspond to the following estimated average useful lives, defined based on the expected use of the asset:

 
  Years
Buildings and other construction   5–50
Basic equipment:    
  Network installations and equipment   4–20
  Terminal equipment   4–5
  Other telecommunications equipment   5
  Other basic equipment   3–10
Transportation equipment   3–8
Tools and dies   4–10
Administrative equipment   3–10
Other tangible fixed assets   4–10

        Estimated losses resulting from the replacement of equipment before the end of their useful lives, for reasons of technological obsolescence, are recognised as a deduction from the corresponding asset's value against the earnings for the period. The cost of recurring maintenance and repairs is charged to earnings as incurred. Costs associated to significant renewals and improvements are capitalized, if future economic benefits are expected and those benefits can be reliably measured. Depreciation periods for those capitalized assets correspond to the period of the expected recovery of the investment.

F-247



        When an asset is recorded as held for sale, its carrying amount is classified in current assets held for sale, and depreciation ceases. The gain or loss arising on the disposal of a tangible asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and is recognised in the income statement under the caption "Losses on disposals of fixed assets, net".

f)  Intangible assets

        Intangible assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets are recognised only if any future economic benefits are expected and those benefits can be reliably measured.

        Intangible assets primarily include goodwill (Note 2.a), lease rights, related to the acquisition of telecommunications capacity, software licenses and other contractual rights.

        Internally generated intangible assets, namely current research and development expenditures, are expensed when incurred. Development expenditures can only be recognised initially as an intangible asset if the Company demonstrates the technical ability to complete the project and put the asset in use or available for sale.

        Intangible assets, except goodwill, are amortised on a straight-line basis from the month they are available for use, during the following periods:

 
  Years
 
  Period of
the agreement

Lease rights    
Software licenses   3–8
Other intangible assets   3–8

g)  Impairment of tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill

        The Group assesses annually, at the balance sheet date, its tangible and intangible assets for impairment losses. This assessment is also made if any event or change in circumstances is identified that indicates that the recorded value of the asset may not be recovered. In case of any such indication, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss.

        Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value in use. The fair value less cost to sell is the amount that could be received in a transaction with an independent and knowledgeable entity, minus the direct costs related to the sale. The value in use is the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value, based on the continuing use of the asset and its disposition at the end of its useful life. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the income statement under the caption "Depreciation and amortisation".

F-248



        A reversal of previously recorded impairment losses is recorded when there are indications that these losses no longer exist or have decreased. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in the income statement in the period in which it occurs. However, a reversal of an impairment loss may be recorded only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been recorded (net of depreciation and amortisation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior periods.

h)  Provisions and contingent liabilities

        Provisions are recognised when (i) the Group has a present obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of internal resources will be required to settle the obligation and (ii) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

        Where any of the above mentioned criteria does not exist or is not accomplished, the Group disclose the event as a contingent liability, unless the cash outflow is remote.

        Provisions for restructuring are only recognised if a detailed and formal plan exists and if the plan is communicated to the parties involved.

        Provisions for dismantling and removing assets and renovations are recognised from the day the assets are in use, in accordance with the best estimates at that date (Notes 3.e and 34). The amount of the provision recorded reflects the effect of the passage of time, with updates to that amount recognised in the income statement under the caption "Net interest expense".

        Provisions are updated as of the balance sheet date, based on the best estimate of the Group's management.

i)  Subsidies

        Subsidies from the Portuguese Government and from the European Union are recognised at fair value when the receivable is probable and the Company can comply with all requirements of the subsidy program. Subsidies for training and other operating activities are recognised in the income statement when the related expenses are recognised. Subsidies to acquire tangible assets are deducted from the carrying amount of the related assets.

j)  Financial instruments

        Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Group's balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

F-249


F-250


F-251


k)  Leases

        Leases are classified (1) as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee and (2) as operating leases when substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the lessee.

        The classification of leases depends on the substance of the transaction and not on the form of the contract.

        Assets acquired under leases and the corresponding liability to the lessor are accounted for under the finance method, with the assets, principal payments and outstanding balance recorded in accordance with the lease payment plan. Interest included in the rents and the depreciation of the assets is recognised in the income statement in the applicable period.

        Under operating leases, rents are recognised on a straight-line basis during the period of the lease.

F-252



l)  Taxation

        Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

        PT Multimedia adopted the tax consolidation regime in Portugal for groups of companies. The provision for income taxes is determined on the basis of the estimated taxable income for all the companies in which it holds, directly or indirectly, 90% or more of the share capital and that are Portuguese residents and subject to the Corporate Income Tax (IRC).

        The remaining Group companies, not covered by the tax consolidation regime, are taxed individually based on their respective taxable income at the applicable tax rates.

        Income tax is recognised in accordance with IAS 12. The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit for the period and on deferred tax, which is based on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, as well as based on reportable tax losses on the date of the balance sheet.

        Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that these may be used to reduce future taxable profits or when there are deferred tax liabilities whose reversal is expected in the same period in which the deferred tax assets are expected to be reversed. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

        The amount of tax attributable to current taxes or deferred taxes resulting from transactions or events recognized in equity is recorded directly in the applicable shareholders' equity captions and does not affect the results of the period.

m)  Revenue recognition

        PT Multimedia's revenue arises principally from:

        Whenever applicable, revenues from the sale of goods and services are allocated to each of their components based on their fair value and recognized separately in accordance with the criteria defined for each, as follows:

Cable and satellite television services

        Revenues from cable and satellite television services result primarily from: (i) monthly subscription fees for the use of the service; (ii) amounts billed for the installation of the service and (iii) rental of equipment. Revenues from monthly subscriptions and installation are recognized in the period service is

F-253



rendered to the customer, and revenues from the rental of equipment are recognized during the rental period.

Voice and internet access services

        Revenue from voice and internet access services, provided through the cable network, is mainly from monthly subscriptions and/or use of the internet, depending on the mode chosen by the customer. This revenue is recognized in the period in which the service is provided.

Pay TV advertising

        Advertising revenues from pay TV and related discounts are recognised in the period when the advertising is run.

Movie exhibition and distribution

        Revenues from the exhibition of films result from the sale of cinema tickets, and revenues from the distribution of films result from the sale to other cinema operators of exhibition rights acquired from film producers and distributors. These revenues are recognised in the period of the exhibition or in the period of the sale of the rights, as applicable.

Sales of DVDs and terminal equipment

        Revenues from sales of DVDs and terminal equipment are recognised in the period the sale occurs.

        As of each balance sheet date, trade receivables are adjusted for the estimated risks of collection, with unrecoverable amounts recognized in the income statement of the period under the caption "Provisions and adjustments" (Note 34).

        All other expenses and costs are recognised when incurred on an accrual basis, regardless of the time of receipt or payment.

n)  Foreign currency transactions and balances

        Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Euros at the rates of exchange prevailing at the time the transactions are entered into. At the balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted to reflect the exchange rates prevailing at such date. The resulting gains or losses on foreign exchange transactions are recognised in the income statement, except for unrealized exchange differences in long-term intra-group balances, representing an extension of the related investment, which are recognised in shareholders' equity under the caption "Other reserves".

        The financial statements of subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Euros, using the following exchange rates:

F-254


        The effect of translation differences from the conversion of financial statements denominated in foreign currency is recognised in shareholders' equity under the caption "Other reserves".

o)  Borrowing costs

        Borrowing costs related to loans are recognised in the income statement when incurred. The Group does not capitalise any borrowing costs.

p)  Cash flow statements

        Consolidated cash flow statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS using the direct method. The Group classifies all highly liquid investments purchased, with original maturity of three months or less and for which the risk of change in value is insignificant, as cash and cash equivalents. The "Cash and cash equivalents" item presented in the cash flow statement also includes negative amounts related to overdrafts classified in the balance sheet under the caption "Short-term debt".

        Cash flows are classified according to three main categories, depending on their nature: (1) operating activities; (2) investing activities; and (3) financing activities. Cash flows from operating activities include mainly collections from customers, payments to suppliers, payments to personnel and other collections and payments related to operating activities. Cash flows from investing activities include mainly acquisitions and disposals of investments in associated companies and the purchase and sale of property, plant and equipment. Cash flows from financing activities include mainly borrowing and repayments of debt, acquisition and sales of treasury shares and payments of dividends to shareholders.

q)  Subsequent events

        Events that occurred after the balance sheet date that provide additional information about conditions that existed on that date are considered when preparing the financial statements for the period.

        Events that occurred after the balance sheet date that provide information about conditions that existed after that date are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, if material.

r)  Critical judgments and estimates

        In preparing the financial statements and accounting estimates herein, management has made use of its best knowledge of past and present events and used certain assumptions in relation to future events.

F-255



        The most significant accounting estimates reflected in these consolidated financial statements are as follows:

        Estimates used are based on the best information available during the preparation of consolidated financial statements, although future unforeseeable events could occur and have an impact on those estimates. Changes to the estimates used by the management that occur after the date of these consolidated financial statements are recognised in the income statement in accordance with IAS 8, using a prospective methodology.

        The main estimates used by management are described in the corresponding notes to the financial statements.

4.    Errors and changes in accounting policies

        During the first half of 2007, there were no changes in the accounting policies used by the Group, when compared to the ones used in preparing the financial statements of the previous year, which are presented for comparative purposes. In addition, there were no material errors recognised in the first half of 2007 and 2006.

5.    Exchange rates used to translate foreign currency financial statements

        As at 30 June 2007 and 31 December 2006, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency were translated to Euros using the following exchange rates published by the Bank of Portugal:

 
  30 Jun 2007
  31 Dec 2006
US Dollar   1.3505   1.3170
Swiss Franc   1.6553   1.6069

15.    Income taxes

        PT Multimedia and its subsidiaries are subject to Corporate Income Tax ("IRC") at a rate of 25% (22.5% for Cabo TV Madeirense and 17.5% for Cabo TV Açoreana), which is increased up to a maximum of 1.5% of taxable profit through a municipal tax, leading to an aggregate tax rate of approximately 26.5%. Effective as from 1 January 2007, the Corporate Income Tax was increased up to 10%, leading to an aggregate tax rate of approximately 27.5%. In calculating taxable income, to which the above tax rate is applied, non-tax-deductible amounts are added to or subtracted from book entries. These differences between book and taxable entries can be temporary or permanent.

        PT Multimedia adopted the tax consolidation regime for groups of companies, which includes all 90% or more owned Portuguese subsidiaries, direct and indirect, that comply with the provision of Article 63 of the Corporate Income Tax Law.

        In accordance with Portuguese tax legislation, income taxes are subject to review and adjustment by the tax authorities for four years following their filing (five years for social security, and ten years for the contributions made before the year ended 31 December 2001), except when there have been tax losses, tax benefits have been granted or inspections or challenges relating to such matters are in progress in which, depending on the circumstances, the deadlines are extended or suspended. Management believes, based on information from its tax advisors, that any adjustment which may result

from such reviews or inspections, as well as other tax contingencies, would not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2007, except for the situations where provisions have been recognised (Note 34).

        Deferred tax assets were recognized depending on the likelihood of taxable profits in the future that can be used to recover tax losses or deductible tax differences. This evaluation is based on the business plans of Group companies, which are reviewed and updated periodically.

        According to Portuguese legislation, tax losses carried forward may be used to offset future taxable income for a subsequent six-year period. As at 30 June 2007 and 31 December 2006, tax losses carried forward of PT Multimedia amounted to Euro 231 million and Euro 282 million, respectively, and mature in 2009. All these tax losses are recorded as deferred tax assets as at 30 June 2007.

F-261



        According to Portuguese Law, if control of more than 50% of the capital is changed, it is necessary to obtain pre-approval from the Finance Ministry in order to maintain tax losses carried forward. The management of PT Multimedia has already requested for this authorization, following the spin-off of PT Multimedia approved at the Portugal Telecom's Annual General Meeting held in April 2007.

        Tax losses carried forward of Sport TV (50%) amounted to Euro 31 million as at 30 June 2007, of which Euro 10 million are recorded as deferred tax assets, and mature as follows:

2007   13,864,326
2008   9,493,562
2009   7,139,445
2010   767,177
   
    31,264,510
   

b)  Reconciliation of income tax provision

36.    Shareholders' equity

36.1     Share Capital

        On 24 April 2007, PT Multimedia approved a share capital reduction of Euro 27,818,715 (Note 36.3) through the transfer of share capital to distributable reserves (Note 36.3). Following this transaction, PTM fully subscribed and paid-up share capital as at 30 June 2007 amounted to Euro 3,090,968 and is represented by 309,096,828 shares with a nominal value of one euro cent per share.

        On 24 April 2007, PTM's shareholders approved in the Annual General Meeting the suppression of the special rights granted to the Class A shares of the Company held by Portugal Telecom and the resulting conversion of such shares into ordinary shares. The special voting rights of the Class A shares were to veto certain actions of the shareholders of PT Multimedia, namely the following:

        The suppression of the special voting rights of the Class A shares of PT Multimedia was subject to the approval of the holder of such shares, Portugal Telecom. On 27 April 2007, the shareholders of Portugal Telecom approved in their Annual General Meeting such resolution of PTM's shareholders and, after the consent of Portugal Telecom, PT Multimedia has converted all of its Class A shares into ordinary shares.

        The conversion of the 102,000 Class A shares held by Portugal Telecom was completed before the Central de Valores Mobiliários (the stock exchange's clearinghouse), and the converted shares started trading in the Euronext stock exchange on 17 September 2007. In addition, PT Multimedia has registered with the Commercial Registry of Lisbon an amendment to its Articles of Association for the suppression of the special rights granted to those Class A shares.

36.2.     Treasury shares

        As of 31 December 2006, PT Multimedia had contracted equity swaps over 925,000 of its own shares with a value of Euro 9,001,900 (Note 30) that allowed PT Multimedia the option to choose between cash settlement and physical settlement, the latter permitting PT Multimedia to acquire the corresponding shares. In accordance with IFRS (IAS 32), these financial instruments should be recognized as an effective acquisition of own shares, and a financial liability was be recorded in an amount equal to the notional amount of the contract. During the first half of 2007, PT Multimedia cash settled these equity swaps, and the corresponding treasury shares and financial liability of Euro 9,001,900 (Note 30) were cancelled. In addition, PT Multimedia received an amount of Euro 2,163,792 (Note 13) corresponding to the difference between the exercise price of the equity swaps and PTM share price at the date of settlement.

36.3.     Reserves

Legal Reserve

        Portuguese law and PTM's bylaws provide that at least 5% of each year's profits must be allocated to a legal reserve until this reserve equals the minimum requirement of 20% of share capital. This reserve is not available for distribution to shareholders, except in the case of the liquidation of the company, but may be capitalized or used to absorb losses, once all other reserves and retained earnings have been exhausted. During 2006, a portion of legal reserve amounting to Euro 12,631,736 was used in the share capital increase as approved at the 2006 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

40.    Litigation

40.1     Legal action TMDP

        In February 2004, Article 106 of Law 5/2004 (Electronic Communications Law) established, under Article 13 of the Authorization Directive (Directive 2002/20/CE), the Taxa Municipal de Direitos de Passagem ("TMDP", or Municipal Fee for Rights of Way) as counterpart to the "laws and taxes relative to the implantation, passage and crossing over by systems, equipment and any other resources of companies who offer electronic communications services to the public of fixed location in the public and private municipal domain". The basis for the TMDP assessment is "each invoice issued by the companies that offer networks and electronic communications services accessible to the public in a fixed location, for each of the final clients of the corresponding municipality", with the TMDP being assessed based on a maximum percentage of 0.25% of the value of these invoices. Certain municipalities in Portugal, in addition to the approval of the TMDP, have maintained charges called Occupation Taxes in addition to the TMDP with others opting for maintaining the latter taxes rather than the approved TMDP. PT Multimedia, based on legal opinions on this issue, believes that TMDP is the only tax that can be charged as compensation for the rights referred to above, namely the right to installation. Therefore, PT Multimedia believes that Occupation Taxes relating to a public thoroughfare charged by municipalities are illegal. It should be noted out that there has already been an appeal decision involving one municipality, that subscribed to PT Multimedia's understanding that it is not possible to overlap TMDP and Occupation Taxes of public thoroughfares.

40.2.     Regulatory proceedings

        PT Multimedia and TV Cabo were accused in September 2005 by the Autoridade da Concorrência (the Portuguese competition authority) of an allegedly forbidden practice under Article 4 of Law 18/2003 (Portuguese Competition Law) following the celebration, on 27 March 2000, of a "Partnership Agreement" between PTM, TV Cabo and SIC—Sociedade Independente de Comunicação, S.A. (SIC),

F-282



under the framework of the acquisition by SIC of a controlling position at Lisboa TV, which was submitted to prior notification to the Autoridade da Concorrência. In its decision, the Autoridade da Concorrência found that the following clauses were anti-competitive: (i) a clause under which SIC was granted a first option right to supply thematic television programming services not yet supplied by or in negotiation with other entities and (ii) clause under which PT Multimedia was granted an exclusive right to sell, in Portugal, the channels produced by SIC within the scope of the agreement. In response to this accusation, PT Multimedia and TV Cabo contested the allegations by the Autoridade da Concorrência. In August 2006, the Autoridade da Concorrência imposed a fine of 2.5 million euros on PT Multimedia. PT Multimedia and TV Cabo appealed to the Commerce Court of Lisbon on 8 September 2006, which had the effect of suspending the decision of the Autoridade da Concorrência. On 14 August 2007, PT Multimedia was notified of the Commerce Court's decision on the appeal. According to the decision, the Commerce Court limited the decision of the Autoridade da Concorrência regarding the first option clause of the Partnership Agreement, declaring the entire proceeding null and void and stating that the Autoridade da Concorrência should initiate a new proceeding solely in respect of the exclusivity clause. Although the possibility of the application of penalties cannot be excluded in those cases and in other cases, PT Multimedia believes that, based on the information provided by its counsel, these claims should not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2007.

41.    Financial Risks

        PT Multimedia is primarily exposed to (i) market risks associated to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, (ii) credit risks and (iii) liquidity and interest rate risks. The main objective of PT Multimedia's financial risk management is to reduce these risks to a lower level.

41.1.     Foreign currency exchange rate risk

        Foreign currency exchange rate risks are mainly related to foreign currency exposure in payments to certain content producers for the Pay TV and Audiovisuals businesses. The commercial transactions between PT Multimedia Group and these content producers are mainly denominated in US Dollars.

        Considering the outstanding balance resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies, PT Multimedia mainly contracts short-term currency forwards to cover the related exchange rate risks. However, PT Multimedia has not contracted any major currency derivative financial instrument, as the balances due and the related risks have a low risk impact in the Company's financial statements.

41.2.     Credit risks

        Credit risks are related to the risk that a third party fails on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss for the Group. The Group is primarily subject to credit risks in its operating activities.

        Credit risks related to operations are primarily related to outstanding receivables from services rendered to our customers (Notes 20 and 21). These risks are monitored on a business to business basis, and PT Multimedia's management of these risks aims to (a) limit the credit granted to customers, considering the profile and the aging of receivables of each customer, (b) monitor the evolution of the level of credit granted, and (c) evaluate any potential impairment to its receivables on a regular basis.

F-283



        The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single customer, since trade receivables consist of a large number of customers, spread across several businesses and geographical areas. The Group obtains credit guarantee insurance whenever the financial condition of a customers requires it.

        Adjustments for doubtful accounts receivable are computed taking into consideration primarily (a) the risk profile of the customer, (b) the aging of the receivables, which differs from business to business, and (c) the financial condition of the customers. The movement of adjustments for doubtful accounts receivable for the six-months period ended 30 June 2007 and 2006 is disclosed in Note 34. As at 30 June 2007, the Company believes that there is no further credit provision required in excess of the adjustments for doubtful accounts receivable included in Note 34.

41.3.     Interest rate and liquidity risks

        Interest rate risks impact our financial expenses on floating interest rate debt.

        Liquidity risk may occur if the sources of funding, such as operating cash inflows, divestments, credit lines and cash flows obtained from financing operations, do not match with our financing needs, such as operating and financing outflows, investments, shareholder remuneration and debt repayments.

        As at 30 June 2007, PT Multimedia had loans in the amount of Euro 276,714,355, divided between short-term and long-term debt (Note 30) mainly due to Portugal Telecom Group companies and financial leases relating to contracts for the acquisition of capacity on transponders/satellites (Note 30).

        As at 30 June 2007, PT Multimedia believes that there are no relevant interest or liquidity risks associated with the current level of debt, considering the low level of net debt and the characteristics of its debt, as it is mainly related with short term loans obtained from Portugal Telecom and to financial leases (Telecom contracts and Transponders).

42.    Recent accounting pronouncements

        The Standards and Interpretations recently issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") that may be relevant to the Group but are not yet effective, are as follows:

Presentation of financial statements

        On 6 September 2007, the IASB issued a revised IAS 1 "Presentation of financial statements", whose main change from the previous version is to require that an entity must present all non-owner changes in equity (that is "comprehensive income") either in one statement of comprehensive income or in two statements (a separate income statement and a statement of comprehensive income). Comprehensive income for a period includes profit and loss plus other comprehensive income recognised in that period, whose components include primarily actuarial gains and losses, currency translation adjustments, gains and losses on remeasuring available-for-sale financial assets and the effective portion of gains and losses on hedging instruments in a cash flow hedge. Revised IAS 1 also changes the titles of financial statements (a) from "balance sheet" to "statement of financial position", (b) from "income statement" to "statement of comprehensive income" and (c) from cash flow

F-284



statement" to "statement of cash flows". The revised version of this standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009.

Customer loyalty programmes

        On 28 June 2007, the IFRIC issued IFRIC 13 "Customer loyalty programmes", which addresses accounting for loyalty award credits granted by entities to their customers who buy goods or services. In accordance with this interpretation, an entity shall allocate some of the proceeds of the initial sale to the award credits as a liability, representing its obligation to provide those awards. The amount of proceeds allocated to the award credits is measured by reference to their fair value, that is, the amount for which the award credits could have been sold separately. The entity shall recognise the deferred portion of the proceeds as revenue only when it has fulfilled its obligations. IFRIC 13 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2008, although earlier application is permitted.

Borrowing costs

        On 29 March 2007, the IASB issued a revised IAS 23 "Borrowing costs", whose main change from the previous version is the removal of the option of immediately recognising as an expense borrowing costs that relate to assets that take a substantial period of time to get ready for use or sale. An entity is, therefore, required to capitalise borrowing costs as part of the cost of such assets. The revised version of this standard is applicable only for assets for which the commencement date for capitalisation is on or after 1 January 2009, although earlier application is permitted.

43.    Subsequent events

        In July 2007, PT Multimedia signed an agreement with the Portuguese State and the three main TV channels in Portugal for the establishment of an Audiovisuals Fund. PT Multimedia has subscribed and amount of Euro 25 million in the Audiovisuals Fund to be paid in equal instalments until 2013. The purpose of this fund is to promote Portuguese audiovisual productions.

        PT Multimedia announced in August 2007 the signing of an agreement with Parfitel—SGPS S.A. regarding the acquisitions of (1) 100% of Bragatel—Companhia de Televisão por Cabo de Braga, S.A., (2) 92,06% of Pluricanal Leiria—Televisão por Cabo, S.A. and (3) 98,75% of Pluricanal Santarém—Televisão por Cabo, S.A. The amount of the acquisition is indexed to the last 12 months' EBITDA of the acquired companies at the acquisition date. The counterparts agreed upon a 12x EBITDA multiple. The companies had a total of 164 thousand clients in June 2007, revenue of Euro 6 million and EBITDA of Euro 2.8 million for the first half of 2007.
