| Explanation of Responses: |
| 1. Sale of the Common Stock, Preferred Stock and Warrants occurred in connection with the Reporting Persons' disposition of Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Warrants and Unsecured Notes of HTC pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated March 30, 2005, by and among TDC A/S and certain of the Reporting Persons. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement is expected to occur on or about April 12, 2005. The Form 4 filed by the Reporting Persons on September 23, 2004 included beneficial ownership of 761,164 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by EMDCD Limited, a defined benefit plan. Because none of the Reporting Persons has a pecuniary interest in such Common Stock beneficially owned by EMDCD, the Form 4 filed by the Reporting Persons on September 23, 2004 should have reported that the Reporting Persons owned 1,989,772 (rather than 2,750,936) shares of Common Stock following the transactions reported by the form. |
| 2. Holders of the Preferred Stock have the right, at any time, to convert each share of Preferred Stock into 10 shares of Common Stock and this right to convert the Preferred Stock into Common Stock does not expire. Each Warrant represents the right to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $10 per share of common stock (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances). The Warrants became exercisable of January 1, 2004 and will expire on March 31, 2007. |
| 3. Per share of Preferred Stock. |
| 4. Per warrant. |
