Enclosure: Altice and HOT Informed Partner of the Withdrawal of Their Acquisition Proposal

ALTICE AND HOT INFORMED PARTNER OF THE

WITHDRAWAL OF THEIR ACQUISITION PROPOSAL

ROSH HA'AYIN, Israel, March 31, 2020 - Partner Communications Company Ltd. ("Partner" or the "Company") (NASDAQ and TASE: PTNR), a leading Israeli communications operator, informs its shareholders, following its reports dated January 29, 2020 and February 5, 2020 regarding the binding offer made by HOT Telecommunication Systems Ltd. ("Hot") and its controlling shareholder, Altice Europe N.V. ("Altice"), that Altice and Hot have withdrawn their acquisition proposal (by way of merger).

Over the course of the last two months, and notwithstanding the burden imposed on the Company due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the Board of the Company evaluated the proposed transaction and its attractiveness, in an effort to improve the terms thereof, while ensuring adequate protection of the rights of the Company’s shareholders in the event that the proposed merger is not completed. In the context of this process, (a) the Board retained the services of an internationally recognized financial advisor and an independent valuator, (b) the Board assessed the price underlying the proposed transaction in light of an independent evaluation conducted specifically for the purposes of this process and taking into account the changing market conditions, (c) the Board analyzed the required regulatory approvals for the proposed transaction, (d) the Board considered the risks faced by the Company during the acquisition process, the estimated monetary ramifications of such risks and the impact of the uncertainty on the company’s day-to-day operations, and (e) several drafts of the merger agreement were exchanged between the Company and Hot and Altice and the proposed terms were discussed and reviewed by the Board and a sub-committee of the Board with the assistance of Partner's financial and legal advisors.

During such period, and despite the pandemic outbreak and its effect on the market in general and on the Company in particular, the Board conducted numerous meetings and internal deliberations, together with its financial and legal advisors, in an effort to make progress with the proposed transaction.

On March 17, 2020 the Board advised Hot and Altice through its legal advisors that it resolved to engage in the next phase of the discussions in connection with the proposed Transaction based on certain terms and understandings previously discussed between the parties.

In order to verify the ability of Altice to consummate the transaction, the Board asked to receive from Altice the commitment letter of the financing bank of Altice containing such bank’s undertaking to finance the Transaction (the "Bank Letter"). As the Bank Letter was not received, on March 28, 2020, the Board advised Altice that it required same to be provided to the Company by March 31, 2020. In addition, the Board reiterated some of the major open issues that required resolution, namely the certainty of payment of a termination fee by Altice and Hot if the Transaction were derailed and the guarantee of Hot’s obligations by entities in the Altice group.

In the late evening of March 30, 2020, Mr. Dexter Goei responded on behalf of Altice and advised that Altice cannot continue with the negotiations, and it is therefore terminating all further discussions. The reasons mentioned by Altice were the rapidly deteriorating economic situation and bleak prospects for a short recovery and, according to Altice, it is now clear that the parties are very far from being able to meet the timeline anticipated by Altice and still have many issues (including two issues mentioned in the above letter) that have not been agreed upon yet. 

The Company intends to continue its current business development and business expansion and to pursue its standalone business strategy, as planned prior to the receipt of the unsolicited offer from Altice and Hot.
