Orascom Telecom Holding Fourth Quarter 2011 Results
Cairo, March 12th, 2012: Orascom Telecom Holding (OTH) (Ticker: ORTE.CA, ORTEq.L, ORAT
EY, OTLD LI), announces its fourth quarter 2011 consolidated results demonstrating a 13% YoY
subscriber growth, a 2% YoY GSM revenue increase and a 4% YoY increase in GSM EBITDA.
The Demerger has already been reflected in the consolidated balance sheet as of
December 31, 2011, whilst, for income statement purposes, the results of operations have
been classified as discontinued operations.
Highlights
• Total subscribers exceeded 78 million, an increase of 13% over the same period last year,
after the exclusion of Alfa, Mobinil and koryolink subscribers for comparative purposes.
• Revenues reached US$ 896 million1, decreasing by 2% compared to 4Q 2010, as a result of
the liquidation of the handset business of “Ring” as well as unfavourable currency
movements. GSM revenues showed almost 2% growth for the quarter. Revenues for the full
year showed an increase of 2% compared to 31 December 2010.
• EBITDA reached US$ 346 million1, a decrease of 4% compared to the same period last
year, mainly driven by an increase in corporate contingent liability provisions at the OT
Holding level, in addition to unfavourable currency movements. GSM EBITDA increased by
4% YoY. EBITDA for the full year increased 10% compared to the previous year, driven by
strong GSM performance of 11%.
• Group EBITDA margin stood at 38.7%, stable over 4Q 2010. EBITDA margins for the major
subsidiaries were: Djezzy 58.6%, Mobilink 41.4%, and banglalink 19.2%.
• Net Income before minority interest for the quarter was negative for US$ 83 million1
compared to a loss of US$ 170 million recorded during the same period last year. The
improvement is due to a three-fold boost in operating income, which was adversely
impacted by the impairment of the company’s assets in Namibia the previous year. Net
income attributable to equity holders for the year 2011 was US$ 661 million1.
• Net Debt2 as of December 31, 2011 stood at US$ 3,022 million1, a decrease of over 25% compared
to 31 December 2010; with a Net Debt/EBITDA of 1.8x.
1. US$ financial figures in the Income Statement & Balance Sheet are according to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
2. Net Debt is calculated as a sum of Short Term Debt, Long Term Debt, less Cash and Cash Equivalents.

“After an incredibly exciting year, Orascom
Telecom ends 2011 poised to capture the
growth momentum across its dynamic
markets.”
Ahmed Abou Doma, Chief Executive Officer, commented on the results:
“After an incredibly exciting year,
Orascom Telecom ends 2011
poised to capture the growth
momentum across its dynamic
markets. With our operators
showing impressive growth for the
fourth quarter of 2011, Orascom
Telecom now counts over 78 million customers, an
increase of almost 13% compared to the closing
base of 2010. While the
depreciation of local
currencies in Algeria, Pakistan,
Bangladesh and Burundi
impacted US dollar revenues
for the quarter, performance
indicators show expansion and development in
most of our operations. Additionally, EBITDA growth
surpassed revenue growth in most operations as a
result of our focus on driving profitable growth, as
well as our operational excellence and capital
efficiency programs.
In Algeria, OTA continues to lead the market with a
growth in subscribers of 10% over the course of
2011. While revenues were up by 3% in local
currency, EBITDA increased 18% YoY as a result of
Opex savings in 4Q 2011. Despite the healthy
margin, the Algerian unit continues to face severe
limitations, such as the ban on foreign currency
transfers, which challenges network expansion and
capacity needs.
In Pakistan, the subscriber base of over 34 million
has contributed to a healthy revenue growth of 4%
in local currency terms compared to the previous
year. Mobilink’s EBITDA increased 10% YoY, as a
result of lower sales costs,
leading to an improved
EBITDA margin for 4Q
2011.
In Bangladesh,
banglalink’s aggressive
focus on VAS has helped drive subscriber growth.
A 23% increase in subscribers was reflected by
nearly 17% revenue growth in local currency
compared to the same period last year.
Telecel Globe subscribers have exceeded 3
million, with high additions to the networks in
Burundi and Zimbabwe.
In Canada, WIND Mobile subscribers have
continued to grow, as a result of innovative
offerings and an expanded coverage across
Canada’s urban centers.”

Operational Performance
Subscribers
Orascom Telecom ended the year 2011 with a
subscriber base of over 78 million, showing an increase
of almost 13% compared to the previous year. For
comparative purposes, the subscriber figure for 2010
has been adjusted to reflect the demerger of Mobinil,
koryolink and Alfa, as well as the sale of Powercom Ltd
in Namibia.
Algeria’s subscribers increased 10% in comparison to
December 2010, as a result of controlling churn
alongside successful customer acquisitions.
In Pakistan, Mobilink’s subscriber base grew almost 8%
YoY after expanding its portfolio of location-based
promotions and focusing on high-quality acquisitions
by introducing new pre-paid and post-paid sales
promotions. In addition, reactivation promotions were
launched to help control churn, which culminated in
successful customer retention.
In Bangladesh the subscriber base showed an
impressive growth of 23% compared to the previous
year, driven by an aggressive acquisition strategy
following the SIM Tax reduction in June 2011, as well as
loyalty programs and reactivation promotions.
Telecel Globe subscribers showed an increase of 6% in
comparison to December 2010, as well as an
improvement in subscriber growth QoQ. The subscriber
growth is mostly driven by a surge in Burundi’s and
Zimbabwe’s customer bases, as a result of increased
penetration into rural areas, as well as improved sales
and distribution channels performance. It is also worth
noting the impressive growth in subscribers compared
to 3Q 2011, which was boosted by Zimbabwe’s
recapturing of subscribers after a dip in 1H 2011.
In Canada, WIND Mobile subscribers increased 73%
compared to the closing base of 2010.

ARPU
In Algeria, ARPU for 4Q 2011 showed a decline of 7% in
US$ and local currency terms as compared to 4Q 2010.
The decrease is due to the penetration of lower
income segments within the customer base, in addition
to an accounting provision concerning the “Imtiyaz”
loyalty program.
In Pakistan, Mobilink’s ARPU decreased by 7% YoY in
US$ terms and by 4% in local currency terms amidst a
highly competitive environment. The decline is due to
the penetration of lower-end segments in the market
through location based promotions in most of the
major cities in Pakistan. It is worth noting that ARPU
levels were stable in comparison to the previous
quarter.
In Bangladesh, ARPU showed a decline in both US$
and local currency terms, decreasing 14% and 6%
respectively. Accelerated growth of subscribers in rural
and youth market segments led to some ARPU dilution,
while the continuing devaluation of the local currency
against the US$ also had an adverse impact on ARPU
for 4Q 2011.
In Canada, WIND Mobile experienced a 13% decline in
ARPU YoY, while showing stability compared to the
previous quarter.

Market Share & Competition
During the fourth quarter of 2011, Orascom Telecom
continued to lead in its core operating markets, with
the exception of Bangladesh where banglalink
continues to maintain its second largest market
share position.
In Algeria, market share declined by 2.2 p.p. in
comparison to 3Q 2011 as a result of aggressive
competitive pressures surrounding channel
acquisitions, and the ongoing adverse operating
conditions resulting from the ban on foreign
currency transfers and other Government actions,
which have restricted the import of essential
equipment, and the undertaking of critical network
maintenance.
In Pakistan, the market share of Mobilink dropped
0.2 p.p. as measured on internal traffic patterns, as a
result of the continued market-wide focus on MNP
and aggressive competitive pressures.
In Bangladesh, banglalink witnessed an increase in
market share of 0.7 p.p. as a result of its successful
customer acquisition strategy.
Table 4: Market Share & Competition
1. Market share, as announced by the national Regulator is based on information disclosed by the other operators which use different subscriber
recognition policies.

CAPEX
Total consolidated capital expenditures for 4Q 2011
showed a 24% increase compared to the previous
year, in line with strategic investment plans.
In Algeria, CAPEX declined 41% in comparison to
4Q 2010, as a result of the ongoing ban on foreign
currency transfers preventing the payment of
essential suppliers, as well as the importing of
equipment critical to network maintenance and
necessary expansion.
In Pakistan, CAPEX increased 129% YoY due to the
continued focus on network and IT development
for Mobilink.
In Bangladesh, CAPEX decreased 16% in
comparison to the aggressive network roll-out plan
of the previous year. It is worth noting that the 2G
license renewal fee was booked as accrued
(accounting) CAPEX since the company received
the title for the license while the payment will be
made in instalments. From a cash flow perspective,
however, the actual amount paid in Q4 was
US$118 million and the remaining part of
approximately US$138 million is deferred.
“Other” CAPEX increased by 112% compared to
the same period last year. The increase is mainly
due to investments made in Telecel Globe for the
purpose of network expansion and 3G.

Main Financial Events
VimpelCom combines with WIND TELECOM to create new global telecom group
In October 2010, WIND TELECOM S.p.A (WIND TELECOM), the parent company of Orascom Telecom Holding S.A.E. (“OTH”)
announced that it signed an agreement with VimpelCom Ltd. (“VimpelCom”) to combine the two groups creating the
world’s sixth largest mobile telecommunications carrier by subscribers. In March 2011, WIND TELECOM announced that the
shareholders of VimpelCom Ltd. voted in their Special General Meeting in favor of the combination with WIND TELECOM.
On April 15th, 2011, VimpelCom and WIND TELECOM announced the closing of the transaction that combines the two
entities to create a new global telecom group.
Over 97% of The Voting Shares that Participated in OTH’s OGM/EGM Approve Demerger,
Refinancing Plan and Internal Reorganization
On April 14th, 2011, Orascom Telecom Holding S.A.E. (“OTH” or the “Company”) announced that the Company’s
shareholders overwhelmingly approved all of the items on the agenda of the Ordinary and Extraordinary General
Assembly Meetings, paving the way to implement the Company’s refinancing plan and the demerger of the Company
into two separate entities, Orascom Telecom Holding S.A.E. and Orascom Telecom Media and Technology Holding S.A.E.,
in connection with the “VimpelCom-WIND TELECOM” transaction.
Shareholders approved the following significant resolutions, among others:
1. the approval of a refinancing plan to refinance the Company’s outstanding secured and high yield debt together with
certain derivative transactions in an amount of approximately US$2.7BN.
2. an increase in OTH’s authorized share capital to EGP 14BN (with the issued and paid-in capital remaining unchanged).
3. the approval of the planned demerger from OTH of Orascom Telecom Media and Technology Holding S.A.E. (“OTMT”),
a company to be formed at the time of the demerger. OTMT will hold certain assets of OTH that are not intended to form
part of the VimpelCom-WIND TELECOM group going forward, including OTH’s interests in Egyptian Company for Mobile
Services (“ECMS”), CHEO Technology Joint Venture company (“koryolink”) in North Korea, Orascom Telecom Ventures
S.A.E. (formerly Intouch Communication Services S.A.E.), as well as other investments in the media and technology sectors,
including undersea cable assets.
On June 29th, 2011, the Company informed its shareholders that the Egyptian authorities requested, as part of their
verifications and in the best interest of OTH’s shareholders, that a committee reviews some underlying accounting
documents that will serve as a basis for the Demerger. This additional step has created some delays in the implementation
of the Demerger.
In September 2011, GAFI issued its report introducing certain adjustments to the demerger accounts that principally entail
applying retroactively impairments recorded by OTH in its December 31, 2010 financial statements, with an impact of
EGP1,279 million on the September 30, 2010 pro-forma accounts thus increasing the impairment of OTH’s investments in
one of its subsidiaries, OTA , by EGP356 million, fully provisioning the withholding tax balance amounting to EGP9 million.
As a result of these changes, the basis of the split has been revised, and the new split ratio determined between OTH and
OTMT based on their NAV contribution according to the “GAFI” recommended adjusted financials is 58% and 42%
respectively. The nominal value per share of OTH and OTMT shall be EGP0.58 and EGP0.42 respectively. Each OTH
shareholder will still receive one OTMT share for each share of OTH held as of record date (subject to applicable legal
restrictions), while the number of shares for OTH and OTMT remain the same.
On October 23rd, 2011, the Company’s shareholders approved all of the items on the agenda at its EGM, paving the way
to implement the Company’s demerger into two separate entities, OTH and OTMT. The shareholders also approved
authorizing the Chairman of the Company to change the internal ownership structure of OTH’s stake in each of Mobinil
and ECMS, in order to preserve the continuation of the control of the Sawiris Family over such assets, as an interim measure
until the completion of the demerger procedures, as per the demerger plan and as contemplated by the Interim Control
Agreement previously approved by the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company held on April 14, 2011.

Orascom Telecom Holding Announces The Sale of Powercom (Pty) Limited Orascom
On June 2nd, 2011, Orascom Telecom Holding S.A.E. (“OTH” or the “Company”) announced that its fully owned subsidiary
Telecel Globe (“Telecel”) finalized an agreement to sell Powercom (Pty) Limited (“Powercom”), Telecel’s subsidiary in
Namibia, to Investec and Nedbank. The consideration for the sale consists of all liabilities of Powercom of around US$60
Million.
Successful Refinancing of OTH’s Capital Structure
The Refinancing Plan disclosed to shareholders during the AGM dated April 14th, 2011 was successfully completed in June
2011 which resulted in the obligations of OTH under debt agreements with banks or financial institutions being fully
refinanced by VimpelCom (USD 2.7bn).
The Refinancing Plan entailed the purchase by VimpelCom in full of the interests of the creditors under the Senior Credit
Facility, and the interest of the holder of the Equity Linked Notes followed by the redemption of the High Yield Notes and
the termination and close out the hedging transactions.
Orascom Telecom Bangladesh Receives Its 2G License Renewal Guidelines
In September 2011, Orascom Telecom Holding S.A.E. (“OTH”) announced that its Bangladeshi subsidiary Orascom Telecom
Bangladesh (“OTB”) has received the final 2G license renewal guidelines. According to the terms and conditions outlined
by the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (“BTRC”) within the received guidelines, OTB is to pay
approximately BDT 19.8 Billion (equivalent to approximately US$ 263 Million*) over three years as spectrum and license
renewal fees. In addition, according to the received guidelines, the validity of the license renewal is for 15 years.

In November 2011, Orascom Telecom Holding S.A.E. (“OTH”) announced that Khaled Bichara, Executive Chairman,
submitted his resignation from his position as Executive Chairman and Board of Directors Member, effective by the end of
December 2011.
In January 2012, the Board of Directors elected Mr. Jo Lunder to the position of Chairman replacing Mr. Khaled Bichara.
The appointment will be submitted in the next General Assembly for ratification. In his new capacity as Chairman of
Orascom Telecom Holding, Mr. Lunder will focus on executing a strategy to increase cash flows through driving profitable
growth, operational excellence and capital efficiency.
Orascom Telecom Completes Demerger
Under the terms of the VimpelCom transaction, VimpelCom, Weather II and OTH agreed on a demerger plan (the
Demerger”) pursuant to which the Company’s investments in certain telecom, media and technology assets (the “Spin-Off
Assets”), which were not intended to form part of the VimpelCom business going forward, would be transferred to a new
company, Orascom Telecom Media and Technology Holding S.A.E. (“OTMT”). The Demerger was performed in
accordance with the guidelines of the Egyptian Financial Supervisory Authority and in particular decree no. 124 of 2010
and was completed in December 2011. The split of OTH shares by the way of the Demerger resulted in OTH shareholders
holding the same percentage interest in OTMT as they held in the Company. The Demerger plan was initially approved in a
shareholders meeting dated 14 April 2011 and subsequently on 23 October 2011. Approval from the Egyptian Financial
Supervisory Authority was received in December 2011.
As a result of the Demerger, during November and December 2011, ownership of the following Spin-Off Assets were
transferred from the Company to OTMT:
28.755% ownership stake in Mobinil for Telecommunications S.A.E.;
20.00% ownership stake in the Egyptian Company for Mobile Services;
75% ownership in CHEO Technology Joint Venture Company, together with all other assets and businesses located in North
Korea;
95% ownership in Orabank NK;
100% directly and indirectly held ownership stake in Middle East and North Africa for Sea Cables;
51% ownership of Trans World Associate (Private) Limited (Pakistan);
100% ownership of Med Cable Limited (UK);
99.99% ownership stake in Intouch Communications Services S.A.E. (aka OT Ventures Internet portals and other ventures in
Egypt including Link Development, ARPU+ and LINKonLine); and
1% ownership stake in ARPU for Telecommunications Services S.A.E.
The Demerger was performed based on the book value of the Spin-Off Assets, taking into consideration the terms and
conditions of a separation agreement entered into between the relevant parties, which requires among others, OTH to
GIVING THE WORLD A VOICE
Orascom Telecom Holding 4Q – 2011 P a g e | 13
reimburse OTMT for certain revenue items pertaining to the Spin-Off Assets. The effect of the Demerger was a reduction of
total equity of US$ 1,610 million, including a reduction of US$ 433 million in share capital.
The Demerger was effected through a reduction in the issued capital of the Company. In particular, the nominal value of
the Company’s shares was reduced from L.E. 1 to L.E. 0.58.
As the Demerger took place before the balance sheet date, the Demerger, including the transfer of the Spin-Off Assets
has already been reflected in the consolidated balance sheet as of 31 December 2011, whilst for income statement
purposes, the results of operations relating to the Spin –Off Assets have been classified as “discontinued operations” in 2010
and 2011.

Financial Review
Revenues
Total Consolidated Revenues for 4Q 2011 declined
by 2% compared to the previous year, as a result of
modest growth in GSM revenues countered by the
liquidation of the handset business of “Ring”, as well
as local currency devaluation against the US$ in
OTH’s main operating countries. For the full year,
consolidated revenues improved by 2%, driven by
nearly 6% increase in GSM revenues.
In Algeria, revenues remained stable for the quarter
showing 1% growth in comparison to 4Q 2010. In
local currency terms, revenues increased 3% YoY,
mostly driven by the growth in OTA’s subscriber
base.
In Pakistan, revenues increased 1.5% in US$ terms,
impacted by currency devaluation. In local
currency terms, revenues were up 4% in 4Q 2011
compared to the previous year, mainly due to an
increase in subscribers, steady VAS uptake, as well
as higher administrative fees on scratch cards.
In Bangladesh, the ongoing devaluation of the
local currency against the US$ was responsible for
the difference in revenue growth in US$ vs. local
currency, up 5% and 16.5% respectively for the
quarter. The growth in revenues is attributable to
tariff revisions, aggressive competitive moves, and
a strong focus on VAS, which contributed to solid
additions to the subscriber base of banglalink.
Telecel Globe revenues declined by 5% in
comparison to 4Q 2010 as a result of the sale of the
operation in Namibia, in addition to currency
devaluation in Burundi. On a comparable basis,
excluding the sale of Powercom Ltd. in Namibia,
revenues display an increase of 8.6% YoY.

Table 7: Consolidated Revenues QoQ
Total consolidated revenues for 4Q 2011
decreased 3% compared to 3Q 2011, mostly
impacted by a drop in GSM revenues for the
quarter.
In Algeria, revenues declined 6% in US$ terms and
4% in local currency terms. The decrease is a result
of an accounting provision concerning the
“Imtiyaz” loyalty program.
In Pakistan, revenues increased 1% in US$ terms and
2% in local currency terms, in line with subscriber
usage and VAS growth.
In Bangladesh, revenues increased 3% in local
currency terms, mostly due to tariff revisions, VAS
and MFS offerings, as well as additions to the
subscriber base. Revenues were partially slowed by
disconnection regulations concerning the post-
paid base.
Telecel Globe revenues grew by 11% compared to
the previous quarter, driven by increases in the
ARPU of CAR, as well as a significant subscriber
increase in Burundi for 4Q 2011.

EBITDA
Consolidated EBITDA for 4Q 2011 decreased 4% YoY,
mainly driven by an increase in corporate
contingent liability provisions at the OT Holding level,
in addition to unfavourable currency movements.
GSM EBITDA increased by 4% YoY. On a year-to-date
basis, consolidated EBITDA increased over 10%, as a
result of the operational excellence program, which
helped boost GSM EBITDA by nearly 11%.
In Algeria, EBITDA increased 11% in US$ terms while
showing an 18% increase in local currency terms, as
a result of currency devaluation against the US$. The
increase is mainly attributable to OPEX savings
coupled with strong top line performance in the
quarter.
In Pakistan, EBITDA was impacted by currency
devaluation, leading to a 6% increase in US$ terms,
while increasing 10% in local currency. EBITDA was
positively impacted by higher revenues, and
declining cost of sales, such as lower interconnect
and SIM card costs.
In Bangladesh, EBITDA in local currency declined 4%
as a result of rising SIM tax subsidies related to strong
customer acquisitions. In US$ terms, EBITDA declined
by 20% as a result of the devaluation of the local
currency against the US$.
Telecel Globe’s EBITDA experienced a significant
decline compared to 4Q 2010 due to retroactive tax
adjustments in CAR, in addition to an exceptional tax
assessment and a bad debt provision in Burundi.

Table 10: Consolidated EBITDA QoQ
Consolidated EBITDA for 4Q 2011 decreased by 23%
compared to the previous quarter, heavily impacted
by the 11.5% drop in GSM EBITDA caused by local
currency devaluation in our main operating
countries, as well as an increase in corporate
contingent liability provisions at the OT Holding level.
In Algeria, the 8% decrease in EBITDA is a result of the
devaluation of the local currency against the US$,
while in local currency terms OTA’s EBITDA
decreased almost 4%, as a result of lower revenues
for the quarter.
In Pakistan, EBITDA increased despite pressures on
the local currency, growing nearly 2% in US$ terms
and 4% in local currency terms. The increase is mostly
attributable to higher revenues and lower cost of
sales.
Due to further local currency devaluation against the
US$, banglalink’s EBITDA dropped 44% QoQ in US$
terms, while in local currency terms it decreased 36%
QoQ. The decline was mainly due to an adjustment
in SIM tax subsidy allocation.
Telecel Globe’s EBITDA showed a substantial decline
QoQ, as a result of the retroactive tax in CAR, in
addition to a bad debt provision and tax
reassessment in Burundi.

EBITDA MARGIN
The Consolidated EBITDA margin for the fourth
quarter of 2011 stood at 38.7% showing relative
stability compared to the same period last year.
In Algeria, Djezzy’s margin increased by 5.3 p.p.
compared to 4Q 2010, as a result of the improved
EBITDA level for this quarter countering the
limitations imposed upon the operation by the
Algerian government.
In Pakistan, the EBITDA margin of Mobilink showed
an increase of 1.8 p.p. as a result of healthy revenue
growth and a solid EBITDA for the quarter.
In Bangladesh, banglalink’s EBITDA margin
decreased by 6.0 p.p. compared to the same
period last year as a result of higher SIM tax costs
related to subscriber acquisitions.
Telecel Globe’s EBITDA margin decreased 48.9 p.p. in
comparison to 4Q 2010, mainly due to declining
EBITDA levels.

Net Income
Net Income before minority interest for 4Q 2011 was
negative for US$ 83 million, improving 51% compared
to the previous year. While Net Income attributable to
equity holders of the parent declined by 11% for the
full year, it is worth noting that profit from continuing
operations was up 81%. The decline is a result of the
non-recurring extraordinary gains related to the sale
of operations in Tunisia in 2010.
Net Income for 2010 was adversely impacted by the
impairment of the company’s assets in Namibia. As a
result, Net Income for 4Q 2011 showed an increase
compared to the previous year, boosted by a strong
operating income, which increased three-fold
compared to 4Q 2010. The Net Income in 4Q 2011
was impacted by an increase in unrealized FX losses
in Bangladesh and in OT Holding, driven by currency
devaluations vs. the US$, in relation to certain loans
and payables in foreign currencies; this was partially
compensated by FX gains in relation to financial
receivables from Wind Canada as a result of the
appreciation of the Canadian dollar.
Net Income for the full year of 2011 stood at US$701
million with an EPS of US$ 0.63 per GDR.

Operational Overview
Djezzy – Algeria
Financial Data Operational Data
During the last quarter of 2011, Orascom Telecom
Algerie (OTA) continued to face a number of
challenges. The Bank of Algeria’s detrimental decision
issued in 2Q 2010, which is being challenged by OTA,
instructing the banks not to process any overseas foreign
currency transfer by OTA, is having devastating effects
on OTA’s network and reputation. For example, it is
preventing the importation of goods which are
necessary for maintenance purposes and for network
capacity expansion. This factor continues to exert
significant pressure on the network especially in terms of
quality, capacity and expansion. This factor is also
prejudicing international roaming agreements and
jeopardizing the possibility of launching any new
products which would ultimately require new
technological platforms. Despite these major obstacles
OTA is seeking to serve its customers with the best
possible network quality.
During 4Q 2011, OTA has continued to reinforce its
brand leadership through several initiatives. OTA
launched a new initiative called “Prodiges” aiming to
promote young Algerian talents active in all disciplines
(music, cinema, writing, sport, dance, entrepreneurship,
etc). This project will last 50 weeks, will involve famous
Algerian ambassadors (like Yasmina Khadra), has a
dedicated web site (www.djezzy.tv) and is broadcasted
on radio, billboard and press. OTA has also launched a
leadership campaign (Being number one) reinforcing
OTA’s leadership on network, products and customer
relationship.
On the sales side, OTA continued to market its mobile
telecommunication services through indirect channels
(distributors) and through the 87 owned “Djezzy”
branded shops. The nine exclusive national distributors
cover all the 48 Wilayas and are distributing OTA’s
products through 19,000 authorized points of sale
(“POS”). During 4Q 2011, OTA continued to focus on
expanding the network of POS selling post-paid from 87
(owned shops) in 1Q 2011 to +5,200 in 4Q 2011 (through
authorized POS) in order to increase post-paid gross
adds. OTA has branded 1,000 authorized points of sale
(“POS”) in order to reinforce its presence and expand its
87 owned “Djezzy” shops network.
Despite the extremely challenging conditions described
above, the overall customer base increased by 10% to
reach 16.6 million customers by the end of December
2011. OTA managed to maintain its leadership position in
terms of market share of gross adds, controlling the
largest distribution across all 48 Wilayas and operating
the largest network with 7,552 BTS by the end of the
quarter. Customer base and market share would have
been significantly further improved without the
detrimental effect of the adverse Governmental action
against OTA.
OTA also continued to control churn through the
continued enhancement of the “Imtyaz” loyalty
program with a special focus on high value customers.
Churn rate for 3 months dropped to historically low levels
from 5.7% in 4Q 2010 to 5.5% in 4Q 2011.

OTA’s revenue evolution in the second half of 2011
followed a parallel trend to the actions undertaken by
OTA to mitigate operational handicaps. Revenues for
4Q 2011 showed a positive increase of 3% over the same
period of 2010, from DZD 32.8bn to DZD 33.9bn in line
with the recovery trend seen in previous quarters. By
carefully monitoring the value of customers being
acquired and not launching value destructive
promotions, OTA's EBITDA value (in DZD) increased by
18% and EBITDA margin increased by 5.3 p.p. compared
to 2010. Capex dropped from US$35m to US$ 21m mostly
due to the ban on overseas foreign currency transfers by
OTA, which is preventing the payment of essential
suppliers and creditors, the import of essential
equipment, and the undertaking of critical network
maintenance. The inability to carry out those
maintenance and expansion works and to secure
essential goods and services for the network represent a
key source of high operational uncertainty for the
months to come.

Mobilink – Pakistan
Financial Data Operational Data
* Market share, as announced by the Pakistani Regulator is based on information disclosed by the other operators which use different subscriber recognition policies.
The Pakistani mobile market remained very competitive
in the period, with all the operators introducing multiple
campaigns with heavy media support. Mobilink kept its
product portfolio competitive through introducing new
products as well as investing in various platform
capacities to address the growing demand of services
from its existing and potential subscribers.
Mobilink increased its total closing subscriber base by
7.6% during 2011 by adding 2.4 million subscribers. In
local currency, the year over year revenue growth was
at 4% while EBITDA increased by 10% YoY.
Mobilink maintained its focus on high quality subscriber
acquisitions by introducing new sales promotions for
both pre-paid and post-paid customers in the last
quarter of 2011. Moreover, Mobilink’s regional offers
portfolio was expanded to cover additional cities, in line
with the growing industry trend of acquisition focused on
specific regions on the back of location based
aggressive pricing offers.
Mobilink’s youth portfolio continued to grow. In the
fourth quarter of 2011 ‘Such Baat Offer’ was launched
on Jazba, Mobilink’s youth tariff, enabling subscribers to
make hour long calls at a discounted rate. In addition to
that, a limited time offer was launched to mark the
celebration of Jazba’s first anniversary.
Building on its tradition of offering the latest handsets to
its customers, Mobilink further expanded its portfolio of
handsets and devices enabling its subscribers to choose
the device that would best suit their professional and
personal communications needs. The new handset
offerings in Q4 included ‘Blackberry® Bold 9900’, HTC
Radar; Pakistan’s first Windows® OS 7.5 smart phone and
HTC Explorer; an affordable Android 2.3 OS smart phone.
Customers buying these handsets were also offered free
internet for three months.
Remaining competitive in the international calling arena
continued to be one of Mobilink’s areas of focus. In
addition to the attractive international offers to Canada
and the UK that were launched in Q3, a new IDD offer
for Saudi Arabia was introduced in Q4, offering a
discounted call rate during the festivals of Eid and Hajj.
The passion for cricket runs deep in Pakistan and Jazz
decided to be an integral part of this passion by
becoming the title sponsor of international series
between Pakistan and Bangladesh. During this series a
thematic TVC was launched from the Jazz platform
featuring a popular cricket star.

banglalink has surpassed the 20 million subscriber mark
this year having reached 23.8 million customers as of
December 31st, 2011, up 23% YoY. The company
maintained a selective acquisition strategy from
February till June in anticipation of SIM tax reduction,
which was effective in June – Government reduced SIM
tax by Tk. 194. banglalink started aggressive acquisition
from the end of 2Q 2011. As a result, the market share at
the end of 2011 increased to 27.9%.
banglalink’s revenue has grown by 5% compared to
2010. The 4Q 2011 revenue was BDT 9.9 billion showing a
16.5% increase in comparison with 4Q 2010.
EBITDA in 4Q 2011 was US$ 25 million which is 20% lower
than the same period last year. EBITDA margin dropped
to 19.2% compared to 25.2% in previous year, due to SIM
tax subsidy as the company had aggressive acquisition
during 4Q 2011. Capital expenditure in 2011 was US$ 69
million, a 16% decline compared to 4Q 2010.
In 4Q 2011, banglalink enriched its portfolio with the per
second tariff and the new version of its post-paid tariff
“inspire”. In an effort to increase revenue and to face
the currency devaluation, banglalink started several
revenue enhancement initiatives coupled with targeted
promotions along with the usual loyalty programs,
handset bundles, bonus on usage, and reactivation
promotions. banglalink is maintaining the leadership
position in VAS services in terms of breadth of offer. In 4Q
2011, banglalink launched new services such as ‘job
alert’, ‘matrimony alert’ and foreign employment info-
service and added to its mobile financial services the
mobile based insurance premium collection in
collaboration with Jiban Bima Corporation.

payable in 3 installments each being 17%. Under the
guideline, banglalink has to pay approximately US$ 256
million for a 15 years license. Bangladesh Bank, the
central bank of the country, has published the guideline
for mobile financial services and approved all types of
mobile based financial services, but MNOs are required
to get approval through a bank.
The unilateral directive from regulator to stop building
and leasing FON from Nov 2011 has been postponed till
the NTTN (National Telecom Transmission Network)
licensees are ready to provide service to the ISPs.
banglalink with other operators are pursuing to withdraw
this directive. On the other hand, the Government, as
part of its vision of Digital Bangladesh by 2021, has taken
up aggressive data infrastructure projects of 1500 km
fiber cable and additional international bandwidth of
145 Gbps.
The regulator, BTRC, has formulated guideline to issue
more IGW, IIG, submarine cable, ICX and satellite
licenses in 2011. The government has also issued 6
licenses for international terrestrial cable (ITCs) to local
entities. MNOs were barred from getting a license for
ITC. The regulator also decided that all of the five PSTN
operators who were forced to shut down would get
back their licenses and two operators already received
them. The government has given permission to state
owned operator Teletalk for pilot launch of 3G service,
which is to be launched by June 2012. The 3G license
awarding process is likely to happen in 2012, with the 3G
Spectrum auction tentatively planned in June 2012.
There will be separate guidelines for SMP and MNP as
has been mentioned in the 2G renewal guidelines. MNP
is also expected to be introduced sometime later this
year, but SMP timeline has no visibility till now.

WIND Mobile– Canada
Globalive Wireless Management Corp. (“Company” or
“GWMC”), a Canadian wireless operation jointly owned
by AAL Holdings Corporation and Orascom Telecom
operating under the brand name WIND Mobile,
celebrated its second year of operations in the
Canadian market.
Following WIND’s re-launching its “WIND Mobile” brand
targeting the “Value Plus” customer segment in Canada
during Q3, WIND successfully executed on its new post-
paid strategy by extending its handset program (“TAB”)
to a new TAB+ program. This new program includes
larger subsidies and a broader range of high-end
Android, Blackberry and Windows 7 handsets; this has
directly expanded WIND’s target market to overlap
more directly with the incumbents Canadian operators
across all their brands, including in their higher value
customer segments (and thus lower churn, higher ARPU,
better credit quality and higher lifetime value
customers). The effect has been positive, as greater
than 50% of WIND Canada’s gross additions in Q4 2011
were post-paid sales. WIND had post-paid net additions
of 41,000 in Q4 2011.
WIND continued to play a significant role in shaping the
pre-paid market in Canada during Q4 2011 as the most
competitive quarter on record, pre-paid net additions
for the Canadian incumbent operators collectively
remained negative. Although WIND had positive pre-
paid net additions in Q4 2011, WIND elected not to
follow unreasonably aggressive pricing waves adopted
by low end market entrants proven to have no financial
feasibility and in fact unsustainable in the mid-term for
the high dormancy and churn rates coupled by
significantly lower ARPU and negative lifetime value of
such customers. WIND’s commitment to the pre-paid
market in Canada continued, but reflected a conscious
and disciplined mandate not to match competition
purely on lower prices.
WIND grew its distribution materially, ending 2011 with
211 WIND Mobile-branded locations and a total of 453
points of sale.
WIND has successfully completed a series of changes
during the second half of 2011 to accommodate the
above strategic shifts, in a reaffirmation of its
commitment to being Canada’s fourth national
operator. Management replacements or additions
included Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating
Officer, Chief Technical Officer, Chief Marketing Officer,
Chief Regulatory Officer and head of Customer Care.
WIND management focused heavily on retooling
its network rollout processes and approach with a clear
goal to speed up site deployment, quality, and data
speed by upgrading the network to HSPA+. Accordingly
WIND has successfully increased its coverage to over
12.7 million people (representing 37% of Canada’s total
populace and 47% of the licensed populace) with more
than 1,060 sites on Air. Geographical expansion in
Ontario included St. Catharines, Welland, Niagara Falls,
London, Kitchener, Waterloo, Guelph and Cambridge,
Alberta in Fort Saskatchewan and British Columbia in
Abbotsford. This also reflected WIND continuing
commitment to lower density communities.
Two major announcements from the Canadian
Government are expected in Q1 2012. The first
concerns its policy regarding an upcoming auction
(expected to take place in H1 2013) of 700MHz
spectrum. Most critically, the government will answer
whether that policy will include a set-aside of one of the
two key useable blocks of such spectrum from the three
large incumbent operators. WIND Canada, strongly
supported by independent consumer advocacy groups,
has been actively lobbying for such a set-aside (since it
is expected the Incumbent operators, which operate as
a cozy oligopoly, would, in either in an open auction or

in an auction with a cap, ensure by overbidding that no-
one but one of them acquired the key blocks of useable
spectrum).
Secondly, the government is expected to announce its
long-awaited decision whether to lift (for at least
companies other than the three large incumbent
operators) the existing restrictions on non-Canadian
ownership and control of telecommunications
companies operating in Canada. WIND Canada has, in
line with global standards and the conclusions and
recommendations of three key multi-party policy reports
over the last decade, been actively lobbying for the
removal of these antiquated and unnecessary foreign
ownership restrictions, which serve no policy objective
and which act purely as a barrier to the much-needed
capital required to build out and operate as a facilities-
based competitor to the incumbent operators in
Canada.

Appendix
Glossary
ARPU (Average Revenue per User): Average monthly recurrent revenue per customer (excluding visitors roaming revenue and connection fee). This includes airtime revenue (national and international), as well as, monthly subscription fee, SMS, GPRS & data revenue. Quarterly
ARPU is calculated as an average of the last three months.
Capex: Tangible & Intangible fixed assets additions during the reporting period, includes work in progress, network, IT, and other tangible and intangible fixed assets additions but excludes license fees.
Churn: Disconnection rate. This is calculated as the number of disconnections during a month divided by the average customer base for that month.
Churn Rule: A subscriber is considered churned (removed from the subscriber base) if he exceeds the 90 days from the end of the validity period without recharging. It is worth noting that the validity period is a function of the scratch denomination. In cases where scratch cards
have open validity, the subscriber is considered churned in case he has not made a single billable event in the last 90 days (i.e. outgoing or
incoming call or sms, wap session…). Open cards validity is applied for OTA, Mobilink, Mobinil and banglalink so far. A koryolink customer is
considered churn if he/she does not recharge within four months after the validity of the scratch card.
MOU (Minutes of Usage): Average airtime minutes per customer per month. This includes billable national & international outgoing traffic originated by subscribers (on-net, to land line & to other operators). Also, this includes incoming traffic to subscribers from land line or other
operators.
OTH’s Market Share Calculation Method: The market share is calculated through the data warehouse of OTH’s subsidiaries. The number of SIM cards of competitors that appeared in the call detail record of each of OTH’s subsidiaries is collected. This reflects the number of subscribers of the competition. However, OTH deducts the number of SIM cards that did not appear in the call detail records for the last 90
days to account for churn. The same is applied to OTH subsidiaries. This method is used to calculate the market shares of Djezzy and Mobinil
only. In Pakistan and Bangladesh, Market share as announced by the Regulators is based on disclosed information by the other operators
which may use different subscriber recognition policy.
