Budapest, July 9, 2019 11:00
With the successful closing of the transaction, Magyar Telekom and 4iG will enter into a partnership for the sale of telecommunications services of the large enterprise and public sectors
4iG Plc. and Magyar Telekom Plc. agreed on major terms regarding the sale of T-Systems Hungary - announced the companies on the homepage of the Budapest Stock Exchange (B T).

The objective of our company is to become a major corporation of the IT sector in this dynamically evolving market environment in Hungary, and within 2-3 years, in the region. - said Gell rt J szai, President and CEO of 4iG. T-Systems Hungary is one of the most important milestones in achieving our growth objectives. And the further development of our company may be boosted by the fact that, upon successfully closing the transaction, Magyar Telekom, a leading provider of the telecommunication market, will also become our strategic partner - added Gell rt J szai, reflecting on today's announcement.
In relation to signing the agreement, Tibor R kasi, CEO of Magyar Telekom said that We are proud of T-Systems, which - with its 1600 strong own workforce and thousands of people at partner companies - is a leading info-communications provider of the country and a transformation partner of several corporations and institutions. We have agreed with a professional strategic investor that will continue this innovation activity, and can support the further growth of T-Systems . He added that The objective purpose of Magyar Telekom remains the same: to always provide our customers with the best quality, integrated services, on the best network. We continue to build an efficient and agile Telekom, that strengthens its market leader positions, develops and grows, hence creates value for shareholders and society as a whole .
The intention of the parties is to close the transaction by the end of this year, subject to regulatory approvals, the due diligence process, the finalization of the contractual terms and signing the legal documentation. The full details of the transaction shall become binding upon signing the final sale and purchase agreement, of which the companies will inform investors and the members of the public later.
