Tracking stock frequently asked questions available online You can now access the most frequently asked questions about the tracking stock on the Latin America tracking stock web site. Simply go to www.bellsouth.com/investor/la and select "Frequently Asked Questions" from the menu of choices. In addition to those listed on the web site, many of you may have questions about how the tracking stock will affect shares you own through company-sponsored plans. We are currently addressing these issues, and will provide you with information as soon as it is available. In the meantime, we hope the posted FAQs will be helpful. In particular, please note Q&A 19, which discusses the importance of voting. Most proposals presented to our shareholders require a favorable vote of a majority of the shares voted to pass. In contrast, the tracking stock proposal must be approved by a majority of the shares outstanding. Therefore, if you don't vote, it is generally the same as voting against the proposal. Please review the information in the proxy statement and vote your shares. The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote for the tracking stock proposal. BellSouth needs your vote - please vote today. ### -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
