Following a review, conducted in close collaboration with the Bundesanstalt
für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht (BaFin), of the way BlackRock has
interpreted its voting rights disclosure obligations under German law,
BlackRock entities on 30 September 2014 filed a statement representing
their holdings as at the settlement date of 25 September 2014 in Deutsche
Telekom AG.

The statement does not reflect a change in BlackRock's current holdings of
voting rights. The statement simply updates information currently in the
market regarding BlackRock's holdings in Deutsche Telekom AG. Further, the
statement does not signify any change in investment strategies pursued.

Also, BlackRock issued a press release detailing the BlackRock group
