Vivendi: UMG to purchase BMG Music Publishing

Paris, September 6, 2006 — Vivendi and Universal Music Group (UMG), 100% owned by Vivendi, announced today that they have signed with Bertelsmann a definitive agreement for the purchase of BMG Music Publishing Group for a total consideration (in enterprise value) of EUR 1.63 billion.

The transaction has been approved by the Management Board and the Supervisory Board of Vivendi. It is subject to the regulatory approvals of the competition authorities in the relevant countries.

Subject to those approvals, BMG Music Publishing will be integrated within UMG. UMG will then become the world leader in music publishing.

BMG Music Publishing is among the world’s leading music publishers. Its catalog includes over one million copyrights and a roster of such chart-topping artists as Coldplay, Justin Timberlake, Maroon 5, Christina Aguilera, R Kelly and Juan Gabriel, among numerous others. Its extensive catalog runs the musical gamut from The Scorpions, Barry Manilow and Gilbert Becaud, to such seminal classical artists as Puccini and Ravel.

Jean-Bernard Lévy, CEO & Chairman of Vivendi Management Board, stated: “The acquisition of BMG Music Publishing is a unique opportunity to grow our music publishing business and enhance the value of Universal Music Group at a time when the music market is improving, supported by technological innovations and digital sales.
It is by developing and strengthening our businesses, in a rigorous and targeted manner, as we already did with our television, video games and telecommunications activities, that we create value for Vivendi’s shareholders.”

Doug Morris, Chairman & CEO of Universal Music Group and member of Vivendi Management Board, added: “This is an historic acquisition which will further diversify and expand our portfolio of music assets into such key areas production music library, classical and Christian music. As a result, UMG will not only be even better positioned to fully capitalize on the many new and exciting opportunities in the current marketplace, but able to better serve our artists, songwriters and business partners.”

Telecommunications in Poland

Paris, September 6, 2006 — Vivendi strongly challenges the announcements issued by Deutsche Telekom (DT) to the effect that DT has acquired a 48% stake in PTC from Elektrim after exercising a call option based on an arbitration award issued in Vienna in November 2004. These announcements reflect an agreement between DT and Elektrim that was reached in violation of Polish court rulings.

Vivendi draws attention to the fact that this arbitration award can have no effect in Poland at this time. DT fails to mention that the Warsaw Appeals Court on 16 August 2006 suspended its 29 March decision to recognize the arbitration award. The suspension is effective until such time as Telco’s appeal against the 29 March decision is heard by the Supreme Court.

Neither DT nor Elektrim can at this time claim any ownership rights based on the arbitration award or any other decision.

Moreover, Vivendi and Elektrim Telekomunikacja have obtained injunctions from the Polish courts preventing transfer of PTC stock by Elektrim as well as any other agreement between Elektrim and DT. The announcements made by DT were therefore in violation of these injunctions.

Vivendi will take any and all necessary legal action against all parties concerned in order to enforce its rights.
