Section&nbsp;27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 and Section&nbsp;21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current beliefs, expectations and
intentions as to facts, actions and events that will or may occur in the future. Such statements
generally are identified by forward-looking words such as &#147;believe,&#148; &#147;plan,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148;
&#147;continue,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;expect,&#148; &#147;may,&#148; &#147;will&#148; or other similar words.

forward-looking statement. We have chosen these assumptions or bases in good faith. These
forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, some of which are
beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements reflect our current views with
respect to future events and are not a guarantee of future performance. Actual results may differ
materially from information contained in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of
factors, including, without limitation, the risk factors set forth in &#147;Item&nbsp;3. Key Information &#150;
Risk Factors&#148; in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2010. You

speaks only as at the date on which we made it. New risks and uncertainties come up from time to
time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect us. We have no
duty to, and do not intend to, update or revise the statements in this report after the date
hereof. In light of these risks and uncertainties, you should keep in mind that actual results may
differ materially from any forward-looking statement made in this report or elsewhere.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 1%">&nbsp;&nbsp;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt"><B>Manila, Philippines, 19</B><sup><B>th</B></sup><B> January&nbsp;2012 </B>&#150; PHILIPPINE LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE COMPANY
(PLDT) (PSE: &nbsp;TEL) (NYSE: &nbsp;PHI) today announced the results of its tender offer for the remaining
Digital Telecommunications Phils., Inc. (Digitel) common shares held by the public.

&nbsp;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">A total of 2,888&nbsp;million shares were tendered by Digitel minority shareholders, representing
approximately 94% of the shares held by the public. &nbsp;The minority shareholders were given the
option of receiving the payment in cash at P1.6033 per share, or in the form of PLDT common shares
valued at P2,500 per share or one PLDT share for every 1,559.28 Digitel shares, except for
shareholders residing outside the Philippines who will only be paid in cash.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Of the total shares tendered, 13% or 374&nbsp;million Digitel shares are to be paid in cash, and 87% or
2,514&nbsp;million Digitel shares are to be paid in PLDT common shares. &nbsp;This translates to the payment
by PLDT of about P600&nbsp;million in cash and issuance of approximately 1.6&nbsp;million PLDT common shares.
The tendered shares are to be crossed&nbsp;in the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE)&nbsp;on 24 January&nbsp;2012
and&nbsp;settlement of both cash and share transactions will be on 27 January&nbsp;2012.

&nbsp;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Following the completion of the tender offer and with the previously disclosed partial conversion
of the convertible bonds held by PLDT into 4&nbsp;billion Digitel shares, PLDT will own 10,165&nbsp;million
common shares or 98% of the enlarged capital base of Digitel.

&nbsp;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">PLDT undertook a tender offer to Digitel minority shareholders following its acquisition of a
combined equity stake of 51.55% of Digitel from JG Summit Holdings, Inc. (JGS), Express Holdings,
Inc., and certain other individuals and corporate stockholders of Digitel. &nbsp;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">The tender offer period commenced on 7 December&nbsp;2011 and was originally scheduled to end on 9
January&nbsp;2012. &nbsp;However, to give the Digitel minority shareholders more time to participate in the
tender offer, PLDT filed for and was granted an extension of the tender offer period to 16 January
2012.

&nbsp;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">With Digitel&#146;s public ownership falling below the minimum 10% required by the PSE, PLDT expects to
file a petition for the voluntary delisting of Digitel with the PSE.
