 necessary for U.S. financial institutions to process the collection of outstanding debts and the receipt of current and future payments relating to telecommunications services provided to Compañía Anónima Nacional Teléfonos de Venezuela. OFAC extended this license in 2023 and 2024 and it currently expires on August 31, 2025.  We will seek to renew this license for 2025-2026.

We believe that our activities with respect to these countries are known to OFAC. We note, however, that OFAC regulations and related interpretive guidance are complex and subject to varying interpretations. Due to this complexity, OFAC’s interpretation of its own regulations and guidance vary on a case to case basis.

The provision of electronic communications networks and services requires our licensing from, or registration with, the appropriate regulatory authorities. It is possible that countries in which we operate may adopt laws and regulations regarding electronic commerce, which could dampen the growth of the internet services being offered and developed by these businesses. In a number of countries, our ability to increase the prices we charge for our cable television service or make changes to the programming packages we offer is limited by regulation or conditions imposed by competition authorities, or is subject to review by regulatory authorities or termination rights of customers.
