SECTION 2.03. Procedure for Borrowing

The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, at least three Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date) requesting that the Lenders make Loans on the Borrowing Date and specifying (i) the Tranche under which the borrowing is requested, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made on such date, (iii) the initial Interest Period for such Loans and (iv) payment instructions. Upon receipt of such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly and, in any case, not later than three Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date, notify each Lender thereof. Each Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of the borrowing not to exceed its Tranche A Commitment or Tranche B Commitment, as the case may be, available to the Administrative Agent (ABA No. 000000000, Account No. 00000000, Account Name: Medium Term Finance, Ref: TELMEX) for the account of the Borrower at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in Section 8.02 prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Borrowing Date in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. The borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent promptly crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of such office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 2.04. Termination of Commitments

(a) Optional. The Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate in whole the unused portions of the Commitments.

(b) Mandatory. Any unused Commitments shall be automatically and permanently terminated on the Borrowing Date, after giving effect to all Loans to be made on such day, provided however that if the borrowing has not occurred on or prior to November 18, 2005, the Commitments shall be automatically and permanently terminated in full on such day.

SECTION 2.05. Optional Prepayments

The Borrower may at any time prepay the Tranche A Loans or the Tranche B Loans, as the case may be, in each case in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon at

least three Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, specifying the date, amount of prepayment and the Tranche to which such prepayment applies. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with any amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 and accrued interest and fees to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. Prepayments of any of the Loans may not be reborrowed.

SECTION 2.06. Repayment

(a) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Tranche A Lenders on the Tranche A Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche A Loans then outstanding.

(b) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Tranche B Lenders on the Tranche B Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B Loans then outstanding.

SECTION 2.07. Interest Rates and Payment Dates

Each Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate determined for such Interest Period (including the first day but excluding the last day of each such period) plus the Applicable Margin, computed on the basis of a 360-day year for actual days elapsed. During the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, if all or a portion of (a) the principal amount of any Loan, (b) any interest payable thereon, or (c) any other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest to the extent permitted by applicable law at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate for the interest periods determined by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion plus (i) with respect to clause (a) or (b) above, the relevant Applicable Margin, and with respect to clause (c), the Applicable Margin for Tranche A Loans plus (ii) 2% per annum, in each case from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment). Interest shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each Interest Period, provided that (a) accrued interest shall be payable upon the prepayment of any Loans as provided in Section 2.05 and (b) interest accruing on overdue amounts shall be payable from time to time on demand. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders in writing of each determination of a LIBO Rate and the length of each Interest Period. Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall constitute prima facie evidence thereof in the absence of manifest error.

SECTION 2.08. Inability to Determine Interest Rate

If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, (a) the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank eurodollar market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest

Period, or (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Lenders that (i) deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to such Lenders in the London interbank eurodollar market for such period or (ii) the LIBO Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof, confirmed promptly in writing to the Borrower and the Lenders. During the next thirty days, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall negotiate in good faith, with a view to agreeing upon an interest rate to be substituted for the LIBO Rate. If a substituted interest rate is agreed upon and approved by the Majority Lenders, it shall be effective from the first day of such Interest Period. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent fail to agree upon a substituted interest rate within such thirty day period, or the Majority Lenders fail to approve the substituted interest rate, either: (i) within five Business Days following the last day of such thirty day period the Borrower shall prepay in full the unpaid principal amount of the Loans, together with all accrued interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin plus the rate determined by the Administrative Agent to have been necessary to maintain such unpaid principal amount during such period or (ii) the interest rate during such Interest Period (and any subsequent Interest Period) applicable to each Lender’s Loan to which such Interest Period relates and effective from the commencement of such Interest Period shall be (x) such rate as such Lender shall determine in good faith (in a certificate delivered by such Lender to the Administrative Agent setting forth the basis of the computation of such amount in reasonable detail, which certificate shall constitute prima facie evidence thereof) to be necessary to compensate such Lender for its cost (rounded upward to the nearest 1/16 of 1%) of funding its Loan as of the commencement of such Interest Period for such Interest Period plus (y) the Applicable Margin. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of each such determination as promptly as practicable.

SECTION 2.09. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments

(a) The borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder shall be made pro rata with respect to each Tranche according to the respective Commitments of the Tranche A Lenders or the Tranche B Lenders, as the case may be. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata with respect to each Tranche according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans then held by the Tranche A Lenders or the Tranche B Lenders, as the case may be, except for payments or prepayments to any Lender making a claim under Sections 2.10, 2.11, 2.12 or 2.13 hereof. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in Section 8.02, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day).

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to the Borrowing Date that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its ratable portion of the Tranche A Commitments or Tranche B Commitments, as the case may be, on such date available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower and the Borrower may draw upon, a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average federal funds effective rate for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of the Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to the Loans hereunder, on demand, from the Borrower.

(c) The failure of any Lender to make a Loan to be made by it hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make a Loan under this Agreement, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan hereunder.

SECTION 2.10. Illegality

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if after the date hereof, the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by a competent Governmental Authority shall make it unlawful for any Lender to maintain its Loans as contemplated by this Agreement and the Notes, such Lender shall give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower describing in reasonable detail the relevant provisions of such Requirement of Law, following which (a) the Commitment of such Lender shall forthwith be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and (b) if such Requirement of Law shall so mandate, such Lender’s Loans then outstanding shall be prepaid by the Borrower on or before the fifth Business Day after the date of receipt by the Borrower of such notice, together with all accrued interest thereon and any amounts applicable to such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.13 (unless actions taken pursuant to Section 2.14 shall make such prepayment unnecessary); provided, however, that if it is lawful for such Lender to maintain its Loans through the last day of the applicable Interest Period, such payment shall be made on such date.

SECTION 2.11. Increased Costs

(a) If after the date hereof, the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the generally applicable interpretation or application thereof by a competent Governmental Authority or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other competent Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof (a “Change of Law”): (i) shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Note or any Loan made by it, or change

the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes, Other Taxes, and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or its Lending Office); (ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, contribution, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, the Lending Office of such Lender; or (iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender reasonably deems to be material, of maintaining its Loans or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall upon the request of such Lender, pay such Lender on the last day of the Interest Period in which it makes a request such additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that a Change of Law has occurred regarding capital adequacy that would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or any corporation controlling such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such Change of Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender, acting in good faith, to be material, then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender on the last day of the Interest Period in which it makes a request for compensation such additional amount necessary to compensate such Lender for such reduction.

(c) Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any such Change of Law which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.11. Before giving any such notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to this subsection (c), such Lender shall take all actions required by Section 2.14. A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 2.11, setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and providing reasonable detail as to the assumptions used by such Lender in determining such amounts and the basis on which such amounts were calculated shall constitute prima facie evidence thereof in the absence of manifest error.

(d) The obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.11 shall survive for a period of one year after the termination of this Agreement and the Notes and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 2.12. Taxes

(a) Any and all payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement and any Note shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by Mexico (or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) or any other jurisdiction from which or through which payments are made, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such Lender and

Mexico or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or any other jurisdiction from which or through which payments are made (other than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent or such Lender (i) having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or the Notes or (ii) having a representative office or a subsidiary in Mexico, provided that any such subsidiary is not the Lending Office). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld or deducted from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any Note, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all such Non-Excluded Taxes and/or Other Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement so that such net sum is equal to what each would have received and so retained had no such deduction or withholding been required or made; provided, however, that no such additional amounts shall be payable in respect of any taxes imposed by reason of the Administrative Agent or any Lender’s failure to comply with Section 2.12(d), in excess of the additional amounts that would have been payable had the Administrative Agent or any Lender complied with such Section. Whenever any such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (as defined below) are payable by the Borrower thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a xxxxxxxxxx or the applicable tax receipt showing payment thereof.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, property or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Note or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Note (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent or any Lender for and hold them harmless against the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes (including the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes on amounts payable under this Section 2.12) imposed on or paid by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (as the case may be) and on any failure of the Borrower to pay any such Non-Excluded or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority and any liability and incremental taxes (including penalties, additions to tax, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Administrative Agent or any Lender (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.

(d) Each Lender (that is not a Mexican financial institution) hereby represents to the Borrower as of the date hereof that it is a foreign financial institution or export credit agency registered in the Registry of Foreign Banks, Financing Entities, Pension and Retirement Funds and Investment Funds (Registro de Bancos, Entidades de Financiamiento, Fondos de Pensiones y Jubilaciones y Fondos de Inversión del Extranjero) of the Ministry of Finance for purposes of Article 195-I or 196-II of the Mexican Income Tax Law (Ley del Impuesto Sobre la Renta), that, to the extent applicable, it has provided the Ministry of Finance with the information described in Article 195-I of the Mexican Income Tax Law and that it is a resident (or its principal office is a resident) in a country that has entered into a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation with Mexico. The Borrower shall not be obligated to pay the Administrative Agent or any Lender

(that is not a Mexican financial institution) any amounts described in Section 2.12(a) in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes that would not have been imposed but for the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (i) prior to the last day of the first Interest Period (A) to be registered (or, with respect to any bank, export credit agency or other financial institution which becomes a Lender pursuant to Section 8.06, on the date such bank or other financial institution becomes a Lender) in the Registry of Foreign Banks, Financing Entities, Pension and Retirement Funds and Investment Funds (Registro de Bancos, Entidades de Financiamiento, Fondos de Pensiones y Jubilaciones y Fondos de Inversión del Extranjero) of the Ministry of Finance as a foreign financial institution or export credit agency for purposes of Article 195-I or 196-II of the Mexican Income Tax Law (Ley del Impuesto Sobre la Renta) or any successor provisions and the regulations thereunder, or, to the extent applicable, to provide to the Ministry of Finance the information mentioned in such Article 195-I, and (B) to be a resident (or to have the principal offices of such Lender be a resident, if such Lender lends through a branch or agency) for tax purposes of a jurisdiction with which Mexico has in effect a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation, (ii) to use its reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to maintain its registration with the Ministry of Finance as a foreign financial institution or export credit agency for purposes of Article 195-I or 196-II of the Mexican Income Tax Law (Ley del Impuesto Sobre la Renta) or any successor provisions and the regulations thereunder, if the making of such filing would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be materially disadvantageous to such Lender or (iii) following a reasonable request of the Borrower upon 60 days’ written notice (unless a lesser period is reasonable under the circumstances), to complete and file with the appropriate Governmental Authority, such forms, certificates or documents (collectively, “Forms”) prescribed by law, rule or regulation enacted or issued by Mexico, or by a double taxation treaty to which Mexico is a party and which is in effect, that are necessary to avoid or reduce such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to provisions of any law, rule or regulation enacted or issued by Mexico, or a double taxation treaty to which Mexico is a party and which is in effect (provided that (i) such Lender shall be under no obligation to provide any information to the Borrower which such Lender deems, in such Lender’s judgment, to be confidential, (ii) such Lender or the Administrative Agent is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such Forms, (iii) the completion, execution and delivery of such Forms will not result, in the good faith, reasonable determination of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, in the imposition on such Lender or the Administrative Agent of (1) any additional material legal or regulatory burden or (2) any additional material out-of-pocket costs or (3) any other material adverse consequences). Promptly upon written request by the Borrower, each Lender (that is not a Mexican financial institution) shall provide to the Borrower, to the extent it is so registered, evidence of its tax registration with the Ministry of Finance, in effect at the time of such request, in connection with Article 195-I or 196-II of the Mexican Income Tax Law (Ley del Impuesto Sobre la Renta) and the regulations thereunder. For purposes of Section 2.12(d)(i)(b), the parties hereto hereby agree that if the Ministry of Finance or any other competent Mexican Governmental Authority determines, by means of a written resolution to such effect, or if the Borrower has reasonable grounds to believe, based on an opinion of counsel of recognized standing delivered to the Administrative Agent, that the Mexican withholding tax regime applicable to the branches or agencies of a Lender (that is not a Mexican financial institution) is different from the tax regime that would be applicable to the principal office of a Lender (that is not a Mexican financial institution), then the Borrower shall be entitled to request the relevant Lender, and the relevant Lender shall use its reasonable efforts to change its lending office to a

jurisdiction with which Mexico shall have entered into a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation, and if the Lender (that is not a Mexican financial institution) shall fail to do so within a sixty (60) day period, the Borrower would be entitled to (x) prepay the Loans of such Lender in accordance with the prepayment terms contemplated herein (without the relevant Lender being obligated to observe the sharing provisions referred to in Section 2.09) or (y) cause a Lender or third party to purchase the relevant Loan, at par plus accrued and unpaid interest to such date plus any applicable funding breakage costs set forth in Section 2.13. The obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 2.13. Indemnity

The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or reasonable expense which is in the nature of funding breakage costs or costs of redeployment of funds and any other related expense (but excluding loss of margin), upon reasonable notice thereof, which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of any Loan after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given notice thereof in accordance with this Agreement, (c) the making of a prepayment of any Loan on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or (d) default by the Borrower in payment when due of the principal of or interest on any Loan; provided that in the case of subsections (a), (b) and (c) hereof such Lender shall have delivered to the Borrower a certificate reasonably detailing the amount of such loss or expense, which certificate shall constitute prima facie evidence thereof in the absence of manifest error. The obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 2.14. Change of Lending Office; Assignment; Filings

SECTION 8.06. Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future permitted holders of the Notes and their respective permitted successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender and any purported assignment by the Borrower without such consent will be null and void.

In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes under this Agreement, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Notes are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and any Note to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement or any Note, provided that, in purchasing such participating interest, such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as provided in Section 8.07(a) as fully as if it were a Lender hereunder. Any Participant exercising such right of setoff shall promptly provide notice to the Borrower of such setoff, provided, however, that the failure by any Participant to provide such notice to the Borrower shall not give the Borrower any cause of action or right to damages or any other remedy against such Participant, any Lender or the Administrative Agent. The Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 2.12 and 2.13 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time as if it was a Lender; provided that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any such Section than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred unless the Borrower has consented to such participation. Each Lender agrees that any agreement between such Lender and any such Participant in respect of such participating interests shall not restrict such Lender’s right to agree to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to this Agreement except that any such Participant may have the right to consent to any such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification for which the consent of the transferor Lender is required under subclause (i) or (ii) of the proviso contained in Section 8.01. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, the Borrower shall not, at any time, be obligated to pay to any Lender any amounts in excess of what the Borrower would have been obligated to pay to such Lender hereunder if such Lender had not sold any participation in its rights and obligations under this Agreement unless the Borrower has consented to such participation.

(c) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time and from time to time assign to any Lender or any Affiliate thereof or, with notice to the Administrative Agent and, if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to (A) another bank, export credit agency or financial

institution, either being a Mexican financial institution or organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of Mexico, provided that such Lender, Affiliate, export credit agency, bank or financial institution (other than a Mexican financial institution) is (x) registered in the Registry of Foreign Banks, Financing Entities, Pension and Retirement Funds and Investment Funds (Registro de Bancos, Entidades de Financiamiento, Fondos de Pensiones y Jubilaciones y Fondos de Inversión del Extranjero) of the Ministry of Finance for purposes of Article 195-I or 196-II of the Mexican Income Tax Law (Ley del Impuesto Sobre la Renta) or any successor provision and to the extent applicable provides to the Ministry of Finance the information described in such Article 195-I or successor provision, and (y) resident (or, if such entities are lending through a branch or an agency, the principal office of such entities are resident) for tax purposes in a jurisdiction with which Mexico has in effect a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation, or (B) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Eligible Assignee (in each case under clauses (A) and (B), an “Assignee”), all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto (each, an “Assignment and Acceptance”), executed by such Assignee, such assigning Lender (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not then a Lender or an Affiliate thereof, by the Borrower, if required, and the Administrative Agent) and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register (as defined below); provided that, in the case of any such assignment, the aggregate principal amount of the portion of the Loans so assigned is not less than $5,000,000 and $1,000,000 increments in excess thereof (or (i) if less, the then outstanding amount of such Loans or (ii) such lesser amount as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent); and provided further, however, that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment if the Borrower does not object in writing to such assignment within five Business Days after receiving notice of such assignment. Any assignment which does not meet the requirements set forth above shall be null and void. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Loan as set forth therein, and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding any other provisions contained herein, the Borrower shall not, at any time, be obligated to pay to any Assignee any amounts pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.12 in excess of what the Borrower would have been obligated to pay to the assigning Lender if such Lender had not assigned its rights to the Assignee unless the Borrower has consented to such Assignment.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 8.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loans recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not then a Lender or an Affiliate thereof, if required, by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent), together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,000 (payable by the Assignee), the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the Borrower. The Borrower shall not be required to issue and/or endorse any Notes in connection with any assignment of Loans hereunder, other than in connection with partial assignments of Loans hereunder.

(f) The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Assignee (each, a ”Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee that has agreed to preserve the confidentiality thereof any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its respective affiliates which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrower and its respective affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement.

(g) For avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section concerning assignments of the Loans and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Note to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law.

SECTION 8.07. Adjustments; Set-off

(a) If any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans (other than a payment under Section 2.10, 2.11, 2.12 or 2.13 or under any insurance policy in favor of a Benefitted Lender with respect to its Loans), or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Article VI(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, or interest thereon, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly

waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount being due and unpaid by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to setoff and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. Any Lender exercising such right of setoff shall promptly provide notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such setoff, provided, however, that the failure by any Lender to provide such notice to the Borrower shall not give the Borrower any cause of action or right to damages or any other remedy against such Lender, any other Lender or the Administrative Agent and shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

SECTION 8.08. Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.09. Severability

Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 8.10. Integration

This Agreement and the Notes represent the agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the Notes.

Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the Notes, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of New York in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof and to the courts of its own corporate domicile in respect of any actions brought against it as a defendant in any action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the Notes; (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court, agrees not to plead or claim the same and, to the extent permitted by the applicable law, waives any right to which it may be entitled on account of place of residence or domicile; (c) agrees that the final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and binding and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any manner provided by law; (d) in the case of the Borrower, agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to CT Corporation System as the Borrower’s agent in New York City for service of process at its address at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower; (e) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law; and (f) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

SECTION 8.14. Waiver of Immunities

To the extent permitted by applicable law, if the Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set-off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement and the Notes. The Borrower agrees that the waivers set forth above shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States of America and are intended to be irrevocable and not subject to withdrawal for purposes of such Act.

SECTION 8.15. Judgment Currency

The obligation of the Borrower hereunder to make payments in Dollars shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than Dollars except to the extent to which such tender or recovery shall result in the effective receipt by the Lenders of the full amount of Dollars expressed to be payable hereunder, and the Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders (as an alternative or additional cause of action) for the amount (if any) by which such effective receipt shall fall short of the full amount of Dollars expressed to be payable hereunder and such obligation to indemnify shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other sums due hereunder.

SECTION 8.16. Acknowledgements

The Borrower hereby acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship to the Borrower under this Agreement, and the relationship under this Agreement between the Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor.

SECTION 8.17. Loans by International Banking Institutions.

It is the policy of the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System that extensions of credit by international banking facilities (as defined in Section 204.8(a) of Regulation D) may be used only to finance the non-U.S. operations of a customer (or its foreign affiliates) located outside the United States as provided in Section 204.8(a)(3)(vi) of Regulation D. The Borrower hereby acknowledges this policy and therefore agrees that the proceeds of the Loans by the International Banking Facility of any of the Lenders will be used solely to finance the non-U.S. operations of the Borrower or its foreign affiliates.

SECTION 8.18. WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL

THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY NOTE OR THE ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their proper and duly authorized officers and delivered in New York, New York as of the day and year first above written.

We express no opinion as to any laws other than the laws of the United Mexican States (“Mexico”) and we have assumed that there is nothing in any other law that affects our opinion which is delivered based upon Mexican law applicable on the date hereof. In particular, we have made no independent investigation of the laws of the United States of America or any state or other political subdivision thereof or therein as a basis for the opinions stated herein and do not express or imply any opinion on or based on such laws.

With respect to certain statements made by us herein concerning our knowledge of factual matters, the phrase “to the best of our knowledge” and any similar phrase means that, during the course of our special representation of the Borrower, no information has come to our attention which has given us actual knowledge of the existence or absence of such facts, and other than reviewing our files and records in respect of each of such companies and the documents and records described above, we have not undertaken any independent investigations to determine the existence or absence of such facts.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the further qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

(a)

The Borrower is a corporation (sociedad anónima de capital variable) duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Mexico and has the power and authority to own or lease its property or assets, to conduct its business as currently conducted and to enter into, perform and comply with its obligations under the Loan Agreement and the Notes.

(b)

The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Loan Agreement and the Notes and the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Loan Agreement, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and do not contravene, or constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law or regulation or of the estatutos sociales of the Borrower or, to the best of our knowledge, of any other agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree or other instrument binding on the Borrower, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any property of the Borrower.

(c)

No authorization or approval or other action by, or notice to or filing with, any governmental authority is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Loan Agreement or the Notes, or for the validity or enforceability thereof or for the enforcement of the rights and remedies of any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent thereunder.

(d)

The Loan Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and each Note when duly executed and delivered by the Borrower will constitute, a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms.

EXHIBIT D - 2

(e)

Neither the Borrower nor any of its property has any immunity from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) under any applicable law in respect of its obligations under the Loan Agreement or the Notes.

(f)

To the best of our knowledge, and other than as has been disclosed in the Loan Agreement, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which the Borrower is a party or of which any property of the Borrower is the subject which, if determined adversely to such Borrower, would individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the consolidated financial position of the Borrower and its subsidiaries taken as a whole; and, to the best of our knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated by governmental authorities or threatened by others.

(g)

It is not necessary under the laws of Mexico (i) in order to enable any of the Lenders to enforce its rights under the Loan Agreement or the Notes or (ii) solely by reason of the execution, delivery or performance of the Loan Agreement or the Notes, that any of the Lenders be licensed, qualified or entitled to carry on business in Mexico.

(h)

The Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Agreement and the Notes, rank and will, under current law, rank at least pari passu in priority of payment and in all other respects with all its other present or future unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness.

(i)

There is no tax, impost, deduction or withholding imposed by Mexico or any political subdivision thereof on or by virtue of the execution, delivery, enforcement or performance of the Loan Agreement or the Notes, except for withholding taxes imposed on payments of interest and fees made under the Loan Agreement, and the Notes, by the Borrower, to any Lender that is not a resident of Mexico for tax purposes, imposed under the Mexican Income Tax Law (Ley del Impuesto sobre la Renta).

(j)

To ensure the legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility in evidence of the Loan Agreement or the Notes in Mexico, it is not necessary that the Loan Agreement or the Notes or any other document be filed or recorded with any court or other authority in Mexico.

(k)

The choice of New York law as the governing law of the Loan Agreement is a valid choice of law. The submission to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or in the courts of the State of New York sitting in the City of New York by the Borrower under the Loan Agreement is, under Mexican law, a valid submission to jurisdiction.

EXHIBIT D - 3

(l)

The courts of Mexico will recognize as valid, and will enforce, any final and conclusive civil judgment for a monetary claim obtained in a court of the State of New York or a United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Borrower by the holder of any Note or by any party to the Loan Agreement in any action commenced by service of process as specified therein.

(m)

The Notes qualify for executory proceedings (acción ejecutiva mercantil) under Mexican law.

(n)

Any final judgment obtained against the Borrower in any of the courts specified in the Loan Agreement or the Notes, as the case may be, in respect of any sum payable by the Borrower under the Loan Agreement or the Notes, as the case may be, would be recognized and enforced by the courts of Mexico without re-examination of the issues, pursuant to Articles 569 and 571 of the Mexican Federal Code of Civil Procedure and Article 1347A of the Mexican Commerce Code, which provide, inter alia, that any judgment rendered outside Mexico may be enforced by Mexican courts, provided that:

(i)

such judgment is obtained in compliance with legal requirements of the jurisdiction of the court rendering such judgment and in compliance with all legal requirements of the Loan Agreement or the Notes, as the case may be;

(ii)

such judgment is strictly for the payment of a certain sum of money and has been rendered in an in personam action as opposed to an in rem action;

(iii)

service of process was made personally on the Borrower or on the appropriate process agent (a court of Mexico would consider the service of process upon the duly appointed agent, by means of a notarial instrument, to be personal service of process meeting procedural requirements of Mexico), provided that such service of process is personally made upon the process agent;

(iv)

such judgment does not contravene Mexican law, public policy of Mexico, international treaties or agreements binding upon Mexico or generally accepted principles of international law;

(v)

the applicable procedural requirements under the law of Mexico with respect to the enforcement of foreign judgments (including the issuance of letters rogatory by the competent authority of such jurisdiction requesting enforcement of such judgment and the certification of such judgment as authentic by the corresponding authorities of such jurisdiction in accordance with the laws thereof), are complied with;

(vi)

such judgment is final in the jurisdiction where obtained;

(vii)

any such foreign courts would enforce final judgments issued by the federal or state courts of Mexico as a matter of reciprocity; and

EXHIBIT D - 4

(viii)

the action in respect of which such judgment is rendered is not subject to legal proceedings in Mexico among the parties.

This opinion is subject to the following qualifications:

(a)

Enforcement may be limited or affected by concurso mercantil, bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general application relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally; among other things, interest on principal will not accrue after declaration of bankruptcy and the obligations of the Borrower in foreign currency shall be converted into Mexican currency at the rate of exchange published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación (Official Daily Gazette of the Federation) by Banco de Mexico (the Central Bank of Mexico) in force on the date the declaration of concurso mercantil is made; Mexican currency shall then be converted into “Unidades de Inversion” or “UDIS” (inflation indexed units) at the rate of conversion published by Banco de Mexico for such date; also pursuant to the laws of Mexico, labor claims, claims of tax authorities for unpaid taxes will have priority over claims of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent;

(b)

We note that the payment of interest on interest is prohibited by Mexican law;

(c)

In the event that proceedings are brought in Mexico seeking performance of the Borrower’s obligations in Mexico, pursuant to Article 8 of the Mexican Monetary Law (Ley Monetaria de los Estados Unidos de Mexicanos), the Borrower may discharge its obligations by paying any sums due in a currency other than Mexican currency, in Mexican currency at the rate of exchange fixed by Banco de Mexico in Mexico for the date when payment is made;

(d)

In the event that any legal proceedings are brought in the courts of Mexico, a Spanish translation of the documents required in such proceedings prepared by a court-approved translator would have to be approved by the court after the defendant has been given an opportunity to be heard with respect to the accuracy of the translation, and proceedings would thereafter be based upon the translated documents;

(e)

The exercise of any prerogatives of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, although they may be discretionary, should be supported by the factual assumptions required for their reasonable exercise; in addition, under Mexican law, the Borrower will have the right to contest in court any notice or certificate of such Lender purporting to be conclusive and binding;

(f)

Claims may become barred under the statutes of limitation or may be or become subject to defenses or set-off or counterclaim;

EXHIBIT D - 5

(g)

Except as specifically stated herein, we make no comments with regard to any representations which may be made by the Borrower in any of the documents referred to above or otherwise;

(h)

As to the provisions contained in the Loan Agreement regarding service of process, it should be noted that service of process by mail does not constitute personal service under Mexican law and, since such service is considered to be a basic procedural requirement under such law, if for purposes of proceedings outside Mexico service of process is made by mail (including to the Borrowers’ duly-appointed process agent in New York), we believe a final judgment based on such process would not be enforced by the courts of Mexico;

(i)

Covenants of the Borrower which purport to bind it on matters reserved by law to shareholders are not enforceable under Mexican law, through specific performance, but may result in a demand of amounts payable under the Loan Agreement;

(j)

We express no opinion as to the enforcement through specific performance of any of the Borrower’s obligations (other than payment obligations) under the Loan Documents, including Section 5.02 of the Loan Agreement, notwithstanding the fact that such obligations may result in a demand of amounts payable under the Loan Agreement;

(k)

We express no opinion on Section 8.15 of the Loan Agreement;

(l)

We note that Article 1093 of the Mexican Commerce Code (Código de Comercio) provides that, for a choice of jurisdiction to be valid under Mexican Law, such jurisdiction must relate to the domicile of one of the parties to the relevant agreement, to the place where the obligations under such agreement are to be fulfilled or to the location of the relevant item.

(m)

The taking of possession, entry, removal, sale, transfer or other disposition of property or similar action in Mexico in terms of an attachment or foreclosure, without the consent of the debtor, may not be made in Mexico without judicial intervention, after the defendant is given the right to be heard and defeated in court.

(n)

Any provision in the Loan Agreement to the effect that invalidity and illegality of any part thereof will not invalidate the remaining obligations of such Loan Agreement may be unenforceable in Mexico to the extent that such provision constitutes an essential element of such Loan Agreement; and

(o)

We note that the enforcement of a claim against the Borrower may be subject to the specific conditions and restrictions set forth in the Federal Telecommunications Law (Ley Federal de Telecomunicaciones), the General

EXHIBIT D - 6

Communications Law (Ley General de Vías de Comunicaciones) and the Bankruptcy Law (Ley de Concursos Mercantiles), in this last case, with respect to the provisions contained in Title Eight, Chapter I “Special Procedures” (De los concursos especiales), “Bankruptcy of companies that render public services subject to a concession” (De los concursos mercantiles de comerciantes que prestan servicios públicos concesionados).

We note that Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Miaja, a partner of this firm, is currently Pro-Secretary of the Board of Directors of the Borrower.

We express no opinion with respect to any laws other than Mexican laws in effect as of the date hereof. We assume no obligation to supplement this opinion if any applicable law changes after the date hereof or if we become aware of any facts that might change the opinions expressed herein after the date hereof.

This opinion is addressed to you solely for your benefit and it is not to be transmitted to anyone else nor is it to be relied upon by anyone else or for any other purpose or quoted or referred to in any public document or filed with anyone without our express consent. You may, however, provide a copy to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, who may rely on this opinion. A copy of this opinion letter may be delivered by any of you to any person that becomes a lender in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Agreement. Any such person may rely on the opinions expressed above as if this opinion letter were addressed and delivered to such person on the date hereof.

Administrative Agent referred to below

c/o Citibank, N.A.,

as Administrative Agent

0 Xxxxx Xxx

Xxxxx 000

Xxx Xxxxxx, XX 00000

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special New York counsel to Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V., a sociedad anónima de capital variable organized under the laws of Mexico (the “Borrower”), in connection with the U.S.$2,500,000,000 Loan Agreement dated as of October 20, 2005 (the “Loan Agreement”) among the Borrower, the lenders named therein (the “Lenders”), and Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”). This opinion is furnished pursuant to Section 4.01(c)(ii) of the Loan Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement.

In arriving at the opinions expressed below, we have reviewed an executed copy of the Loan Agreement, including the forms of the Notes attached to it as Exhibits A and B. In addition, we have reviewed the originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of all such corporate records and documents of the Borrower, and we have made such investigations of law, as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have assumed and have not verified (i) the accuracy as to factual matters of each document we have reviewed (including, without limitation, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in the Loan Agreement), (ii) that the Borrower and each other party to the Loan Agreement has satisfied those legal requirements that are applicable to it to the extent necessary to make the Loan Agreement and (in the case of the Borrower) the Notes enforceable against the Borrower (except that no such assumption is made as to the Borrower regarding matters of the federal law of the

EXHIBIT E - 1

United States of America or the law of the State of New York that in our experience normally would be applicable to general business entities with respect to such agreement or obligation), and (iii) that the Notes conform to the forms thereof that we have examined.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the further assumptions and qualifications set forth below, it is our opinion that:

1. The Loan Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, and each of the Notes, when duly executed and delivered by the Borrower in accordance with the Loan Agreement, will be a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

2. The execution and delivery by the Borrower of the Loan Agreement and the Notes, and the performance by the Borrower of its obligations thereunder, will not require any consent, approval, authorization, registration, filing or qualification of or with any governmental authority or regulatory authority of the United States of America or the State of New York that in our experience normally would be applicable to general business entities with respect to such execution, delivery or performance (but we express no opinion relating to the United States federal securities laws or any state securities or Blue Sky laws).

The foregoing opinions are subject to the following further assumptions and qualifications:

(a) Our opinion in paragraph 1 above is subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, to general principles of equity and to the effect of judicial application of foreign laws or foreign governmental actions affecting creditors’ rights.

(b) We express no opinion as to: (i) the Spanish text of the Notes, or (ii) whether the terms of the Loan Agreement or of the Notes will control in the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of such documents.

(c) We express no opinion as to the effect of the proviso to the governing law provision contained in the Notes on the validity or effectiveness of the choice of New York law contained in the Notes.

(d) We express no opinion as to (i) the subject matter jurisdiction of any United States federal court to adjudicate any action relating to the Loan Agreement or the Notes where jurisdiction based on diversity of citizenship under 28 U.S.C. §1332 does not exist, or (ii) Section 8.13(b) of the Loan Agreement insofar as such provision relates to any waiver of objection on grounds of inconvenient forum by the Borrower with respect to proceedings in any court. We note that the designation in Section 8.13(a) of the Loan Agreement of the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York as a venue for any suit, action or proceeding relating to the Loan Agreement and the Notes is (notwithstanding the waiver in Section 8.13(b)) subject to the power of such courts to transfer actions pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §1404(a) or to dismiss such a suit, action or proceeding on the grounds that it is an inconvenient forum for such a suit, action or proceeding.

EXHIBIT E - 2

(e) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of Section 8.14 of the Loan Agreement relating to any waiver of immunity to the extent that such waiver purports to apply to any immunity to which the Borrower may become entitled after the date hereof. The enforceability of the waiver of immunity set forth in Section 8.14 of the Loan Agreement is subject to the limitations imposed by the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976.

(f) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of Section 8.15 of the Loan Agreement.

(g) Insofar as provisions contained in the Loan Agreement provide for indemnification, the enforcement thereof may be limited by public policy considerations.

The foregoing opinions are limited to the federal law of the United States of America and the law of the State of New York.

We are furnishing this opinion to you, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders, solely for the benefit of the Lenders in their capacity as such in connection with the Loan Documents. This opinion letter is not to be relied on by or furnished to any other person or used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose. The opinions expressed herein are rendered on and as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to advise you or any such governmental authority or any other person, or to make any investigations, as to any legal developments or factual matters arising subsequent to the date hereof that might affect the opinions expressed herein.

Legal Opinion of Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, S.C.

[ ], 2005

Citibank, N.A.

as Administrative Agent

and the Lenders party to the Agreement

specified below

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special Mexican counsel to Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Agent”), in connection with the U.S.$2,500,000,000 Loan Agreement dated as of October 20, 2005 (the “Agreement”), among Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V. (the “Borrower”), the Lenders from time to time party thereto and the Agent. This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 4.01(c)(iii) of the Agreement. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

In connection with the opinion expressed below, we have examined copies of:

(a) the Agreement;

(b) the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit A and Exhibit B of the promissory notes (the “Notes”);

(d) the powers-of-attorney granted to officers of the Borrower in connection with the execution of the Agreement or the Notes; and

(e) originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such certificates of officers of the Borrower, and such other agreements, instruments and documents, and such laws, rules and regulations as we have deemed necessary for the purpose of rendering this opinion.

In such examination we have assumed, without any independent investigation or verification of any kind, (i) the due authorization, execution and delivery by all parties thereto (other than the Borrower) of the Agreement, and the power and authority of each such party (other than the Borrower) under its constitutive documents and all applicable laws, to enter into, execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Agreement, (ii) that all approvals that are necessary for the validity or enforceability of the Agreement and the Notes (other than approvals required under the laws of Mexico, which are addressed below), have been obtained and are in full force and effect, (iii) the validity, binding effect and enforceability of the Agreement and the

EXHIBIT F - 1

Notes under the laws of the State of New York, United States of America, (iv) the genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of the Agreement and all opinions, documents and papers submitted to us as originals, (v) that copies of all opinions, documents and papers submitted to us are complete and conform to the originals thereof and (vi) the authenticity of such original documents. As to questions of fact material to the opinion hereinafter expressed, we have, when relevant facts were not independently established by us, relied upon originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of all such corporate records of the Borrower and such other instruments and other certificates of public officials, officers and representatives of the Borrower and such other persons, and we have made such investigations of law, as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinion expressed below. We have made no independent investigation in any public registry.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions and qualifications specified below, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Borrower has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a sociedad anónima de capital variable under the laws of Mexico.

2. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Agreement and the Notes are within the Borrower’s powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and do not contravene any provision of applicable law or regulation, known to us, or of the estatutos sociales of the Borrower.

3. No authorizations or approvals, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Agreement and the Notes.

4. The Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and when the Notes are duly executed and delivered by the Borrower for value will constitute, valid and binding agreements of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.

5. The payment obligations of the Borrower under the Agreement and the Notes rank at least pari passu in priority of payment with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Borrower.

6. There is no tax, deduction or withholding imposed by Mexico or any political subdivision thereof or therein either (i) on or by virtue of the execution or delivery of the Agreement or the Notes or (ii) on any payment to be made by the Borrower pursuant to the Agreement or the Notes, except for a withholding tax on payments of interest, commissions and fees made by the Borrower to any Agent or Lender that is not a resident of Mexico for tax purposes, imposed under the Mexican Income Tax Law (Ley del Impuesto Sobre la Renta).

7. The Agreement is in proper legal form, under the law of Mexico, for the enforcement thereof against the Borrower.

EXHIBIT F - 2

8. To ensure the validity, enforceability or admissibility in evidence of the Agreement in Mexico, it is not necessary that the Agreement be filed or recorded with any court or other authority in Mexico.

9. The choice of New York law as the governing law of the Agreement is a valid choice of law.

10. Any judgment obtained in a State or Federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, State of New York, arising out of or in relation to the obligations of the Borrower under the Agreement and the Notes would be enforceable in Mexico against the Borrower pursuant to Article 1347A of the Commerce Code, which provides, inter alia, that any judgment rendered outside Mexico may be enforced by Mexican courts, provided that:

(i) such judgment is obtained in compliance with legal requirements of the jurisdiction of the court rendering such judgment and in compliance with all legal requirements of the Agreement or the Notes;

(ii) such judgment is strictly for the payment of a certain sum of money, not based on a real action (acción real);

(iii) service of process was made personally on the Borrower or on the appropriate process agent;

(iv) such judgment does not contravene Mexican law, public policy of Mexico, international treaties or agreements binding upon Mexico or generally accepted principles of international law;

(v) the applicable procedure under the laws of Mexico with respect to the enforcement of foreign judgments (including issuance of a letter rogatory by the competent authority of such jurisdiction requesting enforcement of such judgment and the certification of such judgment as authentic by the corresponding authorities of such jurisdiction in accordance with the laws thereof) is complied with;

(vi) such judgment is final in the jurisdiction where obtained;

(vii) the courts of such jurisdiction recognize the principles of reciprocity in connection with the enforcement of Mexican judgments in such jurisdiction; and

(viii) the action in respect of which judgment is rendered is not the subject matter of a lawsuit among the same parties pending before a Mexican court.

11. The Notes, when duly executed as provided in opinion 4 above, will qualify as negotiable instruments (títulos de crédito) under Mexican law and may be enforced through executory proceedings (acción ejecutiva mercantil).

EXHIBIT F - 3

The foregoing opinion is subject to the following qualifications:

(a) enforcement of the Agreement and the Notes may be limited by bankruptcy, concurso mercantil, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general application relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally;

(b) in any proceedings brought in the courts of Mexico for the enforcement of the Agreement or the Notes against the Borrower, a Mexican court would apply Mexican procedural law;

(c) in the event that proceedings are brought in Mexico seeking performance of the obligations of the Borrower in Mexico, pursuant to the Mexican Monetary Law, the Borrower may discharge its obligations by paying any sum due in a currency other than Mexican currency, in Mexican currency at the rate of exchange prevailing in Mexico on the date when payment is made, and, consequently, Section 8.15 of the Agreement may not be enforceable in Mexico;

(d) provisions of the Agreement granting discretionary authority to the Agent or any Lender cannot be exercised in a manner inconsistent with relevant facts nor defeat any requirement from a competent authority to produce satisfactory evidence as to the basis of any determination; in addition, under Mexican law, the Borrower will have the right to contest in court any notice or certificate of the Agent or any Lender purporting to be conclusive and binding;

(e) in the event that any legal proceedings are brought to the courts of Mexico, a Spanish translation of the documents required in such proceedings prepared by a court-approved translator would have to be approved by the court after the defendant had been given an opportunity to be heard with respect to the accuracy of the translation, and proceedings would thereafter be based upon the translated documents;

(f) in any bankruptcy proceeding initiated in Mexico pursuant to the laws of Mexico, labor claims, claims of tax authorities for unpaid taxes, Social Security quota, Workers’ Housing Fund quota and Retirement Fund quota will have priority over claims of the Agent and the Lenders;

(g) with respect to provisions contained in the Agreement in connection with service of process, it should be noted that service of process by mail does not constitute personal service of process under Mexican law and, since such service is considered to be a basic procedural requirement, if for purposes of proceedings outside Mexico service of process is made by mail, a final judgment based on such process would not be enforced by the courts of Mexico;

(h) Mexican law does not permit the collection of interest-on-interest;

EXHIBIT F - 4

(i) covenants of the Borrower which purport to bind it on matters reserved by law to shareholders, or which purport to bind shareholders to vote or refrain from voting shares issued by the Borrower or its subsidiaries, are not enforceable through specific performance but may result in an acceleration of amounts payable under the Agreement; and

(j) we express no opinion in respect of the availability of non-judicial remedies under Mexican law.

We are qualified to practice law in Mexico. We express no opinion as to any laws other than the laws of Mexico or as to any matters not expressly covered herein. This opinion is effective as of the date hereof. We express no opinion as to rights, obligations or other matters (including change of law circumstances) arising subsequent to the date hereof. We assume no responsibility to advise you of any change to our opinion subsequent to the date hereof.

This opinion is addressed to you solely for your benefit and it is not to be transmitted to anyone else or is it to be relied upon by anyone else or for any other purpose or quoted or referred to in any public document or filed with anyone without our express consent; provided, however, a copy of this opinion letter may be delivered by any of you to any person that becomes a lender in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Agreement.

Legal Opinion of Shearman & Sterling LLP

[ ], 2005

To the Persons listed in Schedule A

and

Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent under the Loan Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the U.S. $2,500,000,000 Loan Agreement, dated as of October 20, 2005 (the “Loan Agreement”), among Teléfonos de México, S.A. de C.V., a sociedad anónima de capital variable duly organized and existing under the laws of the United Mexican States (the “Borrower”), the several banks and other financial institutions from time to time parties thereto (the “Tranche A Lenders” and the “Tranche B Lenders”, together, the “Lenders”) and Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent to the Lenders thereunder.

This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 4.01(c)(iv) of the Loan Agreement. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

In that connection, we have reviewed originals or copies of the following documents:

(a)

a copy of the Loan Agreement signed by the Borrower,

(b)

the form of Tranche A Note, attached as Exhibit A to the Loan Agreement; and

(c)

the form of Tranche B Note, attached as Exhibit B to the Loan Agreement.

The documents described in the foregoing clauses (a) through (c) are collectively referred to herein as the “Opinion Documents”.

In addition, we have examined originals or copies of such other records of the Borrower, certificates of public officials and of officers of the Borrower and agreements and other documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

EXHIBIT G - 1

In our review of the Opinion Documents and other documents, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of the originals of the documents submitted to us, and the conformity to authentic originals of any documents submitted to us as copies.

We have also assumed, as to matters of fact, the truthfulness of the representations made in the Loan Agreement and the other Opinion Documents and in certificates of public officials and officers of the Borrower. We have assumed that each of the Opinion Documents is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each party thereto, other than the Borrower, enforceable against each such party in accordance with its terms.

Furthermore, we have assumed that (i) the Borrower is an entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization; (ii) the Borrower has full power to execute, deliver and perform, and has duly executed and delivered, the Opinion Documents to which it is a party; (iii) the execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary action (corporate or otherwise) and do not: (a) contravene its estatutos sociales (by-laws) or other organizational documents, (b) except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, violate any law, rule or regulation applicable to it, or (c) result in any conflict with or breach of any agreement or document binding on it; and (iv) except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, no authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by the Borrower of any Opinion Document to which it is a party or, if any such authorization, approval, action, notice or filing is required, it has been duly obtained, taken, given or made and is in full force and effect.

We have not independently established the validity of the foregoing assumptions.

“Generally Applicable Law” means the federal law of the United States of America, and the law of the State of New York (including the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder or pursuant thereto), that a New York lawyer exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably be expected to recognize as being applicable to the Borrower or the Opinion Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing definition of Generally Applicable Law, the term “Generally Applicable Law” does not include any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to the Borrower or the Opinion Documents solely because of the specific assets or business of any party to any of the Opinion Documents or any of its affiliates.

Based upon the foregoing and upon such other investigation as we have deemed necessary and subject to the qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

(1) The Loan Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms.

(2) Each of the Tranche A Notes and the Tranche B Notes, when executed and delivered, will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.

EXHIBIT G - 2

Our opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:

(A) Our opinions in paragraphs 1 and 2 above are subject to (i) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including without limitation all laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and (ii) possible judicial action giving effect to governmental actions or foreign laws affecting creditors’ rights.

(B) Our opinions in paragraphs 1 and 2 above are subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(D) To the extent that the Borrower is now an agency or instrumentality of a foreign state that is entitled to immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from legal process with respect to itself or its property, any waiver by the Borrower of such immunity is subject to the limitations imposed by the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976. We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any such waiver at a time in the future when the Borrower, that is not now such an agency or instrumentality shall become one.

(E) We express no opinion with respect to Section 8.07 of the Loan Agreement to the extent that such Section permits set off to be made without notice.

(F) We express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of indemnification provisions, or of release or exculpation provisions, contained in the Opinion Documents to the extent that enforcement thereof is contrary to public policy regarding the indemnification against or release or exculpation of criminal violations, intentional harm, violations of securities laws.

(G) We express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of any indemnity against loss in converting into a specified currency the proceeds or amount of a court judgment in another currency.

(H) We express no opinion with respect to Section 8.13 of the Agreement to the extent that such Section (i) contains a waiver of any objection based on inappropriate venue or forum non conveniens in any federal court of the United States, or (ii) implies that a federal court of the United States has subject matter jurisdiction.

(I) We express no opinion as to the effect of any provision of the Agreement or the Notes which is intended to permit modification thereof only by means of an agreement in writing signed by the parties thereto.

(J) We express no opinion with respect to the Spanish text of the Notes, or the proviso clauses in the seventeenth and twentieth paragraphs of the Notes.

EXHIBIT G - 3

(K) We express no opinion as to whether the terms of the Loan Agreement or of the Notes will control in the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of such documents.

A copy of this opinion letter may be delivered by any of you to any person that becomes a Lender in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Agreement. Any such person may rely on the opinions expressed above as if this opinion letter were addressed and delivered to such person on the date hereof.

This opinion letter is rendered to you in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Opinion Documents. This opinion letter may not be relied upon by you or any person entitled to rely on this opinion pursuant to the preceding paragraph for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to advise you of any development or circumstance of any kind, including any change of law or fact, that may occur after the date of this opinion letter even though such development or circumstance may affect the legal analysis, a legal conclusion or any other matter set forth in or relating to this opinion letter.

Very truly yours,
