- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CUSIP NO. P3055Q103 (Class D. Shares) Page 11 of 13 Pages 204429101 (ADSs) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the ninth amendment ("Amendment No. 9") to the Statement on Schedule 13D originally filed by GTE Corporation and GTE Venezuela Incorporated on December 9, 1996 and amended on December 18, 1996, December 23, 1998, July 13, 2000, October 10, 2001, October 16, 2001, October 22, 2001, November 5, 2001 and December 3, 2001. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined have the meanings ascribed to them in the initial Statement on Schedule 13D, as amended through the date hereof (the "Schedule 13D"). The Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows: Item 4. Purpose of Transaction Item 4 is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph: At a shareholders' meeting of VenWorld held on February 25, 2002, the shareholders of VenWorld approved a plan of liquidation for VenWorld (the "Plan of Liquidation"). Pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, on March 4, 2002, VenWorld distributed to GTE Venholdings (formerly a shareholder of VenWorld), 196,401,427 Class A shares in respect of GTE Venholdings' interest in VenWorld. On February 27, 2002, the board of directors of the Issuer mailed to shareholders the notice of the annual shareholders' meeting to be held on March 22, 2002 at which shareholders will be asked to approve a number of proposed amendments to the bylaws of the Issuer. The proposed amendments include (i) a proposed conversion of the Class A shares to Class D shares (ii) the implementation of a staggered board and an executive committee and (iii) the right of shareholders of the Issuer to subscribe for shares of the Issuer at par value in the event a person acquires, or launches a tender offer to acquire, 15% or more of the Issuer. If the proposed amendments to the bylaws of the Issuer are approved by the shareholders of the Issuer, GTE Venholdings' Class A shares automatically would be converted into Class D shares effective March 22, 2002. GTE Venholdings intends to vote in favor of the proposed amendments, including the proposal to convert the Class A shares into Class D shares. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer Item 5 is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: (a) The Reporting Persons beneficially own 4,001,311 ADSs, each representing seven Class D Shares. Based upon information furnished by the Company, the Class D Shares represented by these ADSs represent approximately 7.4% of the total number of outstanding Class D Shares following the consummation of the Company's latest share repurchase program. To the best of the Reporting Persons' knowledge, none of the persons listed in Schedule I to the Schedule 13D owns beneficially any Class D Shares or ADSs representing Class D Shares, except as follows:
