B.1.14. Indicate any procedures for appointment, re-election, assessment andremoval of Directors.

APPOINTMENT Telefonica's Articles of Association establish that the Board of Directorsshall be composed of a minimum of five and a maximum of twenty members, whoshall be appointed by the General Shareholders' Meeting. The Board of Directorsmay, in accordance with the provisions set out in the Spanish Corporations Lawand in the Company Articles of Association, fill vacant positions temporarily bycooption. To this effect, it is important to note that the appointment of Board members inTelefonica is, as a general rule, submitted for approval by the GeneralShareholders' Meeting. It is only on certain occasions, when such a measure isessential due to vacancies on the Board arising after the last GSM, that theBoard appoints members by cooption, in keeping with the provisions of theCorporations Law, subject to later ratification by the first subsequent GSMheld. In all other cases, the proposed appointments must follow the procedure set outin the Regulations of the Board of Directors, and must be preceded by therelevant favourable report from the Nomination, Remuneration and CorporateGovernance Committee, although such report is not binding. Thus, and in line with the provisions of the Regulations, when exercising itsrights of cooption and proposal of appointments to the General Shareholders'Meeting, the Board of Directors shall endeavour to ensure that external ornon-executive Directors are in the majority over executive Directors. Likewise,the Board shall ensure that within such majority group of external Directors,there are, on the one hand, Directors proposed by holders of significant, stablestakes in the company share capital (proprietary Directors) and, on the other,professionals of acknowledged prestige who are not linked to the management teamnor to the significant shareholders (independent Directors). Similarly, theBoard shall endeavour to ensure that the independent Directors comprise amajority over the proprietary Directors. With respect to the selection of external or non-executive Directors, the choiceof candidates should fall upon persons of recognised solvency, competency andexperience, who are willing to dedicate a sufficient amount of their time to theCompany, and extreme care must be taken as to the choice of the persons calledto cover posts as independent Directors. In reference to the election of the aforementioned independent Directors, theRegulations of the Board of Directors establishes that the Board shall proposeor assign persons who fulfil the conditions that ensure their impartiality andobjective criteria to cover independent Director posts. The criteria applied,for the purpose of illustration, include the following: A. Not to have, or to have recently had, any direct or indirect labour orcommercial contractual relation of a significant nature with the Company, itsmanagement, the proprietary Directors or companies in the Group whoseshareholding interests they represent, banking institutions with an outstandingposition in the Company financing, or organisations that receive significantsubsidies from it; B. Not to be a Director of another listed company that has proprietaryDirectors in the Company; C. Not to be a close relative of the executive or proprietary Directors orof the Company's executive officers. RE-ELECTION Directors are appointed for a term of five years and may be re-elected one ormore times for periods of the same duration. Like proposals for appointment, proposals for the re-election of Directors mustbe preceded by the relevant favourable report issued by the Nomination,Remuneration and Corporate Governance Committee, although such report is notbinding. ASSESSMENT In accordance with the Regulations of the Board of Directors, this bodyevaluates its operation and the quality of its work annually, when the AnnualCorporate Governance Report is approved. REMOVAL Directors shall cease to hold office when the term for which they were appointedelapses, or when such removal is resolved by the General Shareholders' Meeting,in the exercise of the powers granted this body by law. B.1.15. Indicate under what circumstances directors are obliged to resign. In accordance with Article 15 of the Regulations of the Board, Directors mustplace their offices at the disposal of the Board of Directors and formalise therelevant resignation in the following cases: a. When they reach the age of 70. Directors with executive duties shallcease to serve in such capacity when they reach the age of 65, although they maycontinue as Directors if the Board so decides. b. When they cease to hold the executive positions to which theirappointment as Directors is linked, or when the reasons for which they wereappointed disappear. c. When they incur in any of the cases of incompatibility or barringenvisaged by law. d. When severely admonished by the Nomination, Remuneration and CorporateGovernance Committee for having failed to fulfil any of their obligations asDirectors. e. When their continued presence on the Board may affect the credibilityor reputation of the Company in the market, or places the Company's interestsat risk in any other way. B.1.16. Explain whether the duties of the chief executive officer fall upon theChairman of the Board.

Explain the mechanisms, if any, established by the Board of Directors to avoid presenting the individual and consolidated accounts to the General Shareholders' Meeting with exceptions in the auditor's report. Through the Audit and Control Committee, the Board of Directors plays an essential role supervising the preparation of the Company financial information, controlling and coordinating the various players that participate in this process. In order to achieve this objective, the Audit and Control Committee's work addresses four basic questions: (i) to be thoroughly aware of the financial information process and to evaluate the Company's internal accounting control systems; (ii) to ensure the independence of the external Accounts Auditor, supervising its work and acting as a channel of communication between the Board of Directors and such external Accounts Auditors, as well as between the external Accounts Auditors and the Company management team; (iii) to supervise the internal audit services; and (iv) to oversee the suitability and integrity of the internal financial information control systems. The Audit and Control Committee verifies both the periodical financial information and the Annual Company Accounts, ensuring that all financial information is drawn up according to the same professional principles and practises. To this effect, the Audit and Control Committee meets whenever appropriate, and held eleven (11) meetings in the course of 2006. Furthermore, the external Accounts Auditor participates regularly in the Audit and Control Committee meetings, when called to do so by the Committee, to explain and clarify different facets of the audit reports and other aspects of its work. Additionally, and on request from the Committee, other members of the Company management team and that of its subsidiary companies are also called to Committee meetings to explain specific matters that are directly within their scope of competence. In particular, officers in the areas of finance, planning and controlling, as well as those in charge of internal audits, often participate in these meetings. The members of the Committee have held separate meetings with each of these persons when it has deemed such a measure necessary in closely monitoring the preparation of the Company financial information. Notwithstanding the above,, Article 43 of the Regulations of the Board of Directors establishes that the Board of Directors shall ensure it definitively formulates the accounts in such a manner that no exceptions are raised by the Accounts Auditor. However, when the Board considers it must maintain its criteria, it shall publicly explain the content and scope of the discrepancies. B.1.26. List the measures adopted to ensure that information disclosed to the securities markets is transmitted equitably and symmetrically. The Company has a specific regulation governing the basic principles of operation in the processes and control systems for the disclosure of information, called "Regulations for Reporting Information to the Markets", adopted on March 26th 2003. This regulation encompasses the legal requirements applicable to Telefonica, both in Spanish and certain foreign legislation due to the Company's listing on other markets. As established in these Regulations and in keeping with the provisions of Article 82.2 of the Securities Market Law, the Company reports all relevant information immediately to the markets, through reports to the National Securities Market Commission. Likewise, the Company sends each and every communication registered with the National Securities Market Commission to all the markets where its securities are listed. In accordance with the express provisions of these Regulations, all relevant information is reported to the National Securities Market Commission prior to its disclosure to any other media, thus guaranteeing the generalised and symmetrical circulation of such information. Reports of relevant information are issued in accordance with the terms and form required by each of the regulations governing the markets where its securities are listed, which includes the use of electronic systems for the registration of information when necessary. Likewise, the Company posts all the reports on relevant information filed with the National Securities Market Commission on its website, in keeping with the applicable regulations to this effect. Furthermore, Telefonica files all relevant information that may be contained in specific presentations prepared by the Company for registration with the National Securities Market Commission, and even files the complete content of such presentations when deemed appropriate. In addition, through the Investor Relations Department, the Company posts all the presentations made at fixed or variable income sector forums and conferences, and those drawn up for certain financial institutions, on its website in the section on information for shareholders and investors. On certain occasions, such as when reporting Company results or in the case of relevant strategic transactions or decisions, it organises conference calls that may be followed either by telephone or through the Internet (webcast), thus ensuring universal access to the information in real time. Prior to this, the Company sends a communication announcing the date and time of the aforementioned conference call to the National Securities Market Commission. B.1.27. Is the Secretary to the Board also a Director? +----+------+ |YES | NO | +----+------+ | | X | +----+------+ B.1.28. Indicate the mechanism, if any, established by the company to preserve the independence of the auditor, of financial analysts, investment banks and rating agencies. With regards to the independence of the external Company Accounts Auditor, Article 43 of the Regulations of the Board of Directors establishes that the Board shall establish, through the Audit and Control Committee, a stable, professional relationship with the Company Accounts Auditor, strictly respecting its independence. Thus, one of the fundamental competencies of the Audit and Control Committee is to "maintain relations with the Company Accounts Auditor to receive information on those matters that may jeopardise the independence of this figure". Moreover, and in accordance with Article 24 of the Regulations of the Board of Directors, it is the Audit and Control Committee that proposes to the Board of Directors, for submission to the General Shareholders' Meeting, the appointment of the Accounts Auditor as well as, when appropriate, the terms of engagement, the scope of the professional mandate and revocation or renewal of the appointment. Likewise, the external Accounts Auditor has direct access to the Audit and Control Committee and participates regularly in its meetings, in the absence of the Company management team when this is deemed necessary. To this effect, and in keeping with United States legislation on this matter, the external Accounts Auditor must inform the Audit and Control Committee at least once annually on the most relevant generally accepted auditing policies and practises followed in the preparation of the Company's financial and accounting information that affect relevant elements in the financial statements which may have been discussed with the management team, and of all relevant communications between the Accounts Auditor and the Company management team. In accordance with internal Company regulations and in line with the requirements imposed by legislation in the United States, the engagement of any service from the external Company Accounts Auditor must always have the prior approval of the Audit and Control Committee. Moreover, the engagement of non-audit services must be done in strict compliance with the Accounts Audit Law (in its latest version established in Law 44 /2002 of 22 November, on Financial System Reform Measures) and the SarbanesOxley Act published in the United States and subsequent regulations. For this purpose, and prior to the engagement of the Accounts Auditor, the Audit and Control Committee studies the content of the work to be done, weighing the situations that may jeopardise independence of the Company Accounts Auditor and specifically supervises the percentage the fees paid for such services represent in the total revenue of the auditing firm. Thus, the Company reports the fees paid to the external Company Accounts Auditor, including those paid for non-audit services, in its Annual Report, in accordance with the legislation in effect. B.1.29. Indicate whether the auditing firm does non-audit work for the company and/or its group. If so, declare the fees it receives for such work and the percentage represented by such fees of the total fees invoices by the company and/or its group. +----+------+ |YES | NO | +----+------+ | X | | +----+------+ +------------------------+---------+-----------+-----------------------+ | | Company | Group | Total | +------------------------+---------+-----------+-----------------------+ | Amount from non-audit | 6 | 505 | 511 | | work (thousand euros) | | | | +------------------------+---------+-----------+-----------------------+ | Amount from non-audit | 0.200 | 2.500 | 2.203 | | work / total amount | | | | |invoiced by the auditing| | | | | firm (in %) | | | | +------------------------+---------+-----------+-----------------------+ B.1.30. Indicate how many consecutive years the current auditing firm has been auditing the annual accounts of the company and/or its group. Likewise, indicate how many years the current auditing firm has been auditing the accounts as a percentage of the total number of years over which the annual accounts have been audited: +-----------------------------+-----------------+----------------------+ | | Company | Group | +-----------------------------+-----------------+----------------------+ | Number of consecutive years | 2 | 2 | +-----------------------------+-----------------+----------------------+ +----------------------------+-----------------+-----------------------+ | | Company | Group | +----------------------------+-----------------+-----------------------+ | Number of years audited by | 8.333 | 12.500 | | the current audit firm / | | | |number of years the company | | | | accounts have been audited | | | | (%) | | | +----------------------------+-----------------+-----------------------+ B.1.31. List the stock holdings of the members of the company's Board of Directors in other countries with the same, similar or complementary types of activities of the company and/or its group, and which have been reported to the company.

Indicate and, where appropriate, explain whether there are procedures for Directors to receive external advice: +----+------+ |YES | NO | +----+------+ | X | | +----+------+ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Details of the procedure | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Article 31 of the Regulations of the Board of Directors establishes | |that in order to be aided in the performance of their duties, the | |external Directors in majority, or any of the Board Committees by | |majority resolution of its members, may request that legal, | |accounting, financial or other experts may be engaged at the expense | |of the Company. Such engagement must necessarily be related to | |specific problems of certain importance and complexity that arise in | |the performance of their office. | | | |The Chairman of the Company must be informed of the decision to | |commission such services, which shall be engaged by the Secretary of | |the Board, except when the Board of Directors does not consider the | |engagement of such services to be necessary or appropriate. | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ B.1.33. Indicate and, where appropriate, explain whether there are procedures for Directors to receive the information they need in sufficient time to prepare for the meetings of the governing bodies: +----+------+ |YES | NO | +----+------+ | X | | +----+------+ +------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Details of the procedure | +------------------------------------------------------------------+ |The Company adopts the measures necessary to ensure that the | |Directors receive the necessary information, specially drawn up | |and addressed at preparing the sessions of the Board and its | |Committees, with sufficient time.

For the same purpose, the | |Directors are sent the documentation related to the Agenda of the | |meetings with sufficient time. Such information is subsequently | |completed by the written documentation and presentations furnished| |the Directors during the session itself. | | | |To facilitate all the information and clarifications necessary in | |relation to certain points deliberated, the senior management of | |the Group attends nearly all the meetings of the Board to explain | |the matters within their competencies. | | | |Furthermore, and as a general rule, the Regulations of the Board | |of Directors expressly establish that Directors are attributed | |with the broadest powers to obtain information about all aspects | |of the Company, to examine its books, records, documents and other| |data regarding corporate transactions. The exercise of this right | |to information is channelled through the Chairman or Secretary to | |the Board of Directors, who shall respond to all requests from | |Directors, furnishing them with the information directly or by | |establishing suitable channels within the organisation for this | |purpose. | +------------------------------------------------------------------+ B.1.34.

Identify, where appropriate, any conflicts of interest affecting company Directors pursuant to Article 127 of the Corporations Law.

List the mechanisms established to detect, determine and resolve any possible conflicts of interest between the Company and/or its group, and its Directors, management or significant shareholders. The Company policy has established the following principles governing possible conflicts of interest that may affect Directors, management or significant company shareholders: * With respect to the Company Directors, Article 35 of the Regulations of the Board of Directors establishes that Directors shall inform the Board of Directors of any situation of direct or indirect conflict they may have with the Company's interest. In the event of conflict, the affected Director shall abstain from intervening in the deliberation to which the conflict refers. Moreover, and in accordance with the provisions set out in the Regulations of the Board, Directors shall abstain from participating in voting that affects matters in which they or persons related to them have a direct or indirect interest. Likewise, the aforementioned Regulations establish that Directors shall not directly or indirectly undertake professional or commercial operations or transactions with the Company or with any of the companies in its Group, when such transactions are unrelated to the ordinary business of the Company or not performed under market conditions, unless the Board of Directors is informed of said transaction and, after prior favourable report from the Nominating, Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee, approves them with the favourable vote of at least 90% of the Directors present at the meeting. * With regards to significant shareholders, Article 41 of the Regulations of the Board of Directors establishes that the Board of Directors formally reserves knowledge and authorisation of any transaction between the Company and any of its significant shareholders. Under no circumstances shall the Board of Directors authorise the transaction without prior report issued by the Nomination, Remuneration and Corporate Governance Committee appraising the transaction from the point of view of the principle of parity treatment of shareholders and the market conditions of the same. For ordinary transactions, a generic authorisation for the type of transaction and its general conditions shall be sufficient. * With respect to Management, the Internal Code of Conduct for Securities Markets Issues sets out the general principles of conduct for the persons subject to the said regulations who are involved in a conflict of interest. The aforementioned Code includes all the Company Management Personnel within the concept of affected persons. In accordance with the provisions of this Code, Management Personnel are obliged to (a) act at all times with loyalty to the Group and its shareholders, regardless of their own or other interests; (b) abstain from intervening or influencing decision-making that may affect the persons or companies with which the conflict of interest exists; and (c) abstain from accessing information deemed confidential related to such conflict. Furthermore, these persons are obliged to inform the Company Regulatory Compliance Unit of all transactions that may potentially give rise to conflicts of interest.
