Telmex Plans Part of the Telmex´s employees are covered under defined benefit pension plans and seniority premiums.

Europe Defined benefit pension plans A1 Telekom Austria Group provides defined benefits for certain former employees in Austria. All eligible employees are retired and were employed prior to January 1, 1975. This unfunded plan provides benefits based on a percentage of salary and years employed, not exceeding 80% of the salary before retirement, and taking into consideration the pension provided by the social security system. A1 Telekom Austria Group is exposed primarily to the risk of development of life expectancy and inflation because the benefits from pension plans are lifetime benefits. Service awards Civil servants and certain employees (in the following “employees”) are eligible to receive service awards. In accordance with the legal regulations, eligible employees receive a cash bonus of two months’ salary after 25 years of service and four months’ salary after 40 years of service. Employees with at least 35 years of service when retiring (at the age of 65) or who are retiring based on specific legal regulations are also eligible to receive the service award of four monthly salaries. The obligation is accrued over the period of service, taking into account the employee turnover rate for employees who leave employment prematurely. The main risk that A1 Telekom Austria Group is exposed to is the risk of development of salary increases and changes of interest rates.

In case of death, the heirs of eligible employees receive 50% of the severance benefits.

In 2008, a comprehensive restructuring program was initiated in the segment Austria. The provision for restructuring includes future compensation of employees who will no longer provide services for A1 Telekom Austria Group but who cannot be laid off due to their status as civil servants. These employment contracts are onerous contracts under IAS 37, as the unavoidable cost related to the contractual obligation exceeds the future economic benefit. The restructuring program also includes social plans for employees whose employment will be terminated in a socially responsible way. In 2009 and every year from 2011 to 2020, new social plans were initiated that provide for early retirement, special severance packages and golden handshake options. Due to their nature as termination benefits, these social plans are accounted for according to IAS 19.
