Exhibit 99.5

Subject: The next play in our next chapter — Verizon to acquire Frontier

V Team –

This is an exciting time to be a V Teamer. We have our new purpose, Culture OS, brand refresh and new innovative offerings. Every day we are building more momentum in our business. Today we announced another important step on our journey. We will acquire Frontier and expand Verizon’s premium broadband services to millions more customers nationwide.

5 things to know:

• Verizon set the gold standard with Fios and has maintained that leadership position for two decades.

• Adding Frontier’s cutting-edge fiber network will expand Verizon’s fiber footprint across the nation and extend Verizon’s network reach to 25 million premises across 31 states and Washington D.C.

• This will give current and new customers access to Verizon’s industry-leading mobility, home internet, streaming, and connected home offerings, alongside premium business products like Verizon Business Complete.

• Frontier’s fiber network already meets existing Fios standards and can be seamlessly integrated, bringing unmatched mobility and broadband services across a combined network.

• The acquisition is consistent with our strategy of growing and strengthening customer relationships.

What’s next?

We expect the transaction to close in approximately 18 months, subject to regulatory approvals. So let’s stay focused on what’s in front of us and continue providing our customers with the best service possible.

I hope you are as excited as I am about what this means for Verizon because we need the V Team to be all in for our future. Please tune in today for a special Up to Speed Live at 2 PM ET for more details.

Thank you for everything you do every day — for our customers and each other.
