AT&T Inc. Increases Maximum Tender Amount and
Announces Early Results and Satisfaction of
Minimum Condition of Exchange Offer

Dallas, Tex. — August 18, 2010 — AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T) today announced early results of its private offer to exchange (i) any and all of the outstanding 8.750% Senior Notes of New Cingular Wireless Services, Inc. due 2031 (the “8.750% Notes”) and (ii) subject to proration, the outstanding 8.00% Senior Notes of AT&T Corp. due 2031 (the “8.00% Notes” and, together with the 8.750% Notes, the “Existing Notes”) held by Eligible Holders (as defined below) for a new series of 5.35% senior notes of AT&T to be due 2040 (the “New Notes”) and cash (the “Exchange Offer”). AT&T also announced today that it has amended its private offer to increase the maximum aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes that AT&T will accept for tender from $2,500,000,000 to an amount of Existing Notes (the “Maximum Tender Amount”) such that the aggregate principal amount of New Notes to be issued will not exceed $3,500,000,000.

     The approximate principal amounts of each series of Existing Notes that have been validly tendered for exchange, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 17, 2010 (the “Early Participation Date”), based on information provided by the exchange agent to AT&T, are presented in the tables below. These tendered Existing Notes may not be withdrawn, except in certain limited circumstances where additional withdrawal rights are required by law (as determined by AT&T). The amount of outstanding Existing Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Participation Date, as reflected in the tables below, exceeded the minimum condition that AT&T receive valid tenders, not validly withdrawn, of at least $500,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes.

     In accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer, AT&T will accept any and all of the debt securities listed in the following table (the “First Priority Existing Notes”).
