TELEFÓNICA S.A., (“Telefónica”) pursuant to article 82 of the Spanish Securities Market Act (Ley del Mercado de Valores), hereby reports the following

SIGNIFICANT EVENT

Telefónica has entered today into an agreement with Vivendi, S.A. through which Telefónica has committed to deliver 46.0 million of its treasury shares, representing 0.95% of its share capital, in exchange for 58.4 million preferred shares of Telefonica Brasil, S.A, (received by Vivendi, S.A. in the context of the acquisition of GVT Participaçoes, S.A.) representing approximately 3.5% of the share capital of Telefonica Brasil, S.A.

Under this agreement, Vivendi, S.A. has committed, among other obligations: (i) to refrain from selling the Telefónica shares during specified periods (lock up), and (ii) to comply with certain restrictions that, in case of sale, and once the lock up periods have lapsed, would ensure an orderly sale of such shares.

The execution of this agreement is subject to approval by the Brazilian competition authority (CADE).
