Dear Ben, Amendment to Director’s Service Contract
Exhibit 4.19
PERSONAL & CONFIDENTIAL
Xxx Xxxxxxxxx
Chief Executive

23 October 2006
Dear Xxx,
Amendment to Director’s Service Contract
From 1 October 2006, BT is operating flexible retirement policy with no fixed retirement age. This means that XX's contractual retirement age of 60 will cease. BT will, however, maintain the legal right to retire people from age 65 or above under the default retirement procedure defined in the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006.
It is therefore necessary to amend your Director's Service Contract dated 12 December 2001 to omit Paragraph 16.1.1 which provides that the Agreement terminates when you reach the age of 60.
To acknowledge your acceptance of this variation of your Service Contract, will you please return the enclosed duplicate of this letter with the form of acceptance duly signed.
Yours sincerely
/s/ Xxxxx Xxxxx
X X XXXXX
Accepted and Agreed
