RESULTS OF SPECIAL MEETING

On 28 January 2014, a special meeting (the "Special Meeting") of Verizon Communications Inc. ("Verizon") was held in connection with Verizon's proposed acquisition of the U.S. group of Vodafone Group Plc ("Vodafone"), whose principal asset is its 45% interest in Cellco Partnership d/b/a Verizon Wireless (the "Transaction"). The Transaction consideration of approximately $130 billion includes the issuance of up to approximately 1.28 billion new shares of Verizon common stock (the "New Verizon Shares") to Vodafone's shareholders.

At the Special Meeting, Verizon shareholders considered and voted on the following proposals related to the Transaction (the "Proposals"):

   --        approval of the issuance of the New Verizon Shares; and 

-- amendment of Article 4(A) of Verizon's restated certificate of incorporation to increase Verizon's authorized shares of common stock by 2 billion shares to an aggregate of 6.25 billion authorized shares of common stock.

Verizon announced on 28 January 2014 that the Proposals had been approved by Verizon's shareholders, but that vote tallies are considered preliminary until the final results are tabulated and certified by independent election inspectors. That process has now been concluded and the results of the Special Meeting, as announced on 28 January 2014, are considered final.

In accordance with Listing Rule 14.3.6(2), a copy of the full text of the Proposals will shortly be submitted to the UKLA via the National Storage Mechanism and will then be available for inspection at: www.hemscott.com/nsm.do.
