EX-99 3 august9pressrelease.txt EXHIBIT 99.1 - PRESS RELEASE EXHIBIT 99.1 ------------ [AT&T logo] NEWS RELEASE - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eileen Connolly Sue Fleming 908-221-6731 908-221-8824 FOR RELEASE FRIDAY, AUG. 9, 2002 AT&T CONFIRMS ITS SHARE OF SETTLEMENT IN CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT NEW YORK - AT&T today confirmed that it would take a charge against discontinued operations to reflect its share of an out-of-court settlement Lucent Technologies reached in a class action lawsuit concerning leased telephones. AT&T's portion of the settlement was determined under a formula developed when it divested Lucent Technologies in 1996. Under this formula, AT&T's proportionate share of the settlement cost is estimated to be approximately $130 million (pre-tax). The actual cost of the settlement to AT&T may be less than the stated amounts, depending on the number of claims submitted and accepted. Although the settlement occurred after the end of the quarter, AT&T will record a second quarter charge against discontinued operations for its portion of the settlement agreement. # # # -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
