Budapest, December 5, 2006

Magyar Telekom’s Board of Directors has reviewed the 2005 annual reports of Magyar Telekom Plc. prepared in accordance with Hungarian Accounting Rules (HAR), and that of Magyar Telekom Group prepared in accordance with the IFRS, and proposes them for approval to the General Meeting. The Board of Directors also proposes a HUF 70 per share dividend payment for the financial year 2005 plus a HUF 3 per share compensation for the late payment for approval to the General Meeting.

As announced earlier, the Board of Directors of Magyar Telekom considers a dividend payment of HUF 70 per share for the financial year 2005 to be reasonable. The Board also proposes to pay an additional HUF 3 per share dividend to compensate shareholders for the delay in dividend payment. As a result, the total dividend of HUF 73 per share (par value HUF 100) for the 2005 financial year will be proposed for approval to the General Meeting.

The dividend level of HUF 70 is in line with our growth strategy and the aim of maintaining our net debt ratio (net debt to net debt plus equity plus minority interest) in the targeted range of 30-40%. In addition, it reflects the current level of profitability and financial position of the Magyar Telekom Group.

Magyar Telekom will hold its Extraordinary General Meeting on December 21st, 2006.
