<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; margin-right:3%; font-size: 10.5pt"><I>PLDT chairman Manuel V. Pangilinan told reporters that this year&#146;s budget would be
lower than last year as the company&#146;s capital expenditures begin to &#147;normalize&#148; after
the completion of the two-year network expansion and modernization program. The PLDT
Group spent P38&nbsp;billion for its capital expenditures last year.</I>

previous years,&#148; he added.</I>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10.5pt">We confirm the statement of our Chairman that the capex for 2013 will be lower than that for 2012
following the completion of our two-year network transformation program.&nbsp; We anticipate that capex
for 2012 will be within our capex guidance for the year of P38&nbsp;billion;&nbsp;and expect to guide capex
for 2013 at approximately P30&nbsp;billion.&nbsp;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10.5pt">We confirm further that PLDT expects to achieve its core profit guidance of P37&nbsp;billion.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10.5pt">Our full year audited results will be announced on 5 March&nbsp;2012.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10.5pt">We confirm that PLDT recently signed a 5-year US$300M Club Loan with four banks: Australia and New
Zealand Banking Group Limited, Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., Mizuho Corporate Bank, Ltd., and
Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp.&nbsp;The proceeds from the facility will be used to &nbsp;refinance PLDT&#146;s
existing debt and fund capex. &nbsp;As of this date, no drawdowns have been made under the facility.
