2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE:

The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by European Union. They do not include all the information required for full annual consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Except as disclosed below, the accounting policies applied by the Company in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Company in its consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008.

Presentation of financial statements: The Company applies revised IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements (2007), which became effective as at 1 January 2009. As a result, the Company presents in the consolidated statement of changes in equity all owner changes in equity, whereas all non-owner changes in equity are presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. This presentation has been applied in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2009. Comparative information has been represented so that it also is in conformity with the revised standard.

Customer loyalty programs: The Company applies IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programs (2007) which became effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2008. As a result, the Company has reclassified for the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 2008 the amounts of €2.0 million and €2.0 million, respectively, from the caption Purchases and services to the caption Revenues. Furthermore for the three months ended 30 June 2009 and 2008, the amounts of €0.9 million and €1.2 million, respectively were reclassified from the caption Purchases and services to the caption Revenues. Comparative information has been represented so that is also is in conformity with the interpretation.

Segment reporting: As at 1 January 2009 the Company determines and presents operating segments based on the information that is provided internally to the CEO, who is the Company’s chief operating decision maker. This change in accounting policy is due to the adoption of IFRS 8 Operating Segments. Previously, operating segments were determined and presented in accordance with IAS 14 Segment Reporting. The adoption of the new accounting policy in respect of segment operating disclosures does not have any impact on the presentation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements since the Company operates in one segment.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS:

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may be different from these estimates.

Except as described below, in preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008.

During the six months ended 30 June 2009, management re-assessed its estimates in respect of:

a. Impairment of goodwill, indefinite and definite life intangible assets and tangible assets as the Company has one CGU (see note 18).

b. Recoverability of deferred tax assets relating to tax losses carried forward (see notes 13, 17). c. Valuation of financial instruments and assets (see notes 16, 19, 22).

(10)

5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT – LIQUIDITY RISK OF FINANCIAL LIABILITIES:

During the second quarter of 2009, the Company experienced a significant revenue decline as a result of the following factors: (1) the significant competitive market environment leading to price reductions, (2) the regulatory reduction in interconnection tariffs and (3) the existing economic crisis. These factors have not allowed the Company to generate sufficient revenues and cash flows to sustain its operations and therefore the Company has had to rely on financing activities to supplement cash from operations. Furthermore, due to the fact that the Company is highly leveraged, the above factors may constrain the Company’s ability to meet its broader strategic objectives as well as its future interest payments.

The Company needs to restructure its debt and continue to reduce corporate overhead expenses in order to alleviate future potential liquidity restrictions, so that the Company’s strategic objectives may be met and the Company’s revised business plan may be advantageously executed. The Company’s internal projections of expected cash flows from operations currently indicate that there may be insufficient cash to cover the debt interest payments, and there is a risk of default of its financial covenant under the Revolving Credit Facility. Due to the above issues, the Company has initiated a process to evaluate strategic alternatives to address its capital structure.

The financial information included in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements has been presented on a going concern basis. However, until the outcome of the Company’s evaluation of its strategic alternatives and the implications of this for the Company’s future debt structure are known, there may be a material uncertainty about the appropriateness of this basis of presentation.

The financial information presented above does not reflect any adjustments which would be required if the going concern assumption was not appropriate. Given the possible material uncertainty described above, it is not currently possible to determine the extent and quantification of any such adjustments.

The Company entered into these contracts in January 2009, considering that the two cross-currency interest rate swap contracts (note 22) called for a final exchange of principal on 15 January 2010 at an original fixed exchange rate. This created an open foreign exchange position for the Company, and as a result, in order to hedge this existing foreign exchange risk, the Company entered into these two new contracts.

18. IMPAIRMENT TESTING OF GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLES WITH INDEFINITE LIVES:

(I) Goodwill:

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill of €995 million is allocated to the operating subsidiary, WIND Hellas, which represents the lowest level within the Company at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.

Following a decrease in revenues and an increased loss for the six months ended 30 June 2009, the Company assessed the recoverable amount of its cash-generating unit (CGU). As a result of this test, the carrying value of the CGU was determined to be lower than the estimated recoverable amount of the Company. Also, the Company believes that no reasonable possible change in any of the key assumptions would cause the carrying value of the CGU to exceed its recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of the CGU is based on value-in-use calculations. These are determined using pre-tax cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by Company management covering a five-year period. It reflects management’s expectations of revenue growth, operating costs and margin for the CGU based on past experience. Cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using the estimated growth rates indicated in the table below. These growth rates have been determined with regard to projected growth rates for the specific market in which the CGU operates and are not considered to exceed the long term average growth rates for the market. Discount rates applied in determining the recoverable amounts of the CGUs are derived from the Company’s pre-tax weighted average cost of capital and are indicated in the table below:

WIND Hellas

Growth rate1 0.5%

Discount rate2_9.5%

1

Growth rate used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the budget period.

2

Pre-tax discount rate applied to the cash flow projections.

Other key assumptions used in the value of use calculations were as follows:

- Post-paid and prepaid customer base: The customer base is expected to grow in the period 2010 – 2013 as a result of the new commercial positioning set to provide a unique selling proposition and fully-convergent offerings combining mobile and fixed broadband services with “best in class” customer experience and sustainable differentiation towards competition. This is also evident in the projected declining churn rates for the period 2010 – 2013, despite the increase in the churn rates in the year 2009 while at the same time a number of commercial-driven operating expenses and capital expenditures grow in order to support the increased commercial effort.

- Growth in the market segment of fixed telephony customers: the growth is expected to come primarily out of the double play customer expansion whereas indirect voice customers are projected to decline steadily throughout the 2009 – 2013 periods, representing the Company’s shift of focus from the indirect to direct (LLU) customer base.

(19)

- Revenues: year 2009 total revenues are not expected to exceed the 2008 level but they are expected to increase by an aggregate of 11.3% from 2009 to 2013.

- Improved earnings before interest taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) margin: the fall back in EBITDA in 2009 and 2010 is mainly the result of the following factors: (i) the ongoing recessionary economic environment which adversely affects consumer behaviour, (ii) the aggressive competitive pricing in the local market which affected the profitability levels in 2009 and (iii) the imposed interconnection rates reduction. In the years 2011 onwards, EBITDA is expected to increase to a sustainable level which is based on the Company’s expected expanded customer base and improved efficiency and effectiveness of the business operational model as the commercial effort is easing off from its peak in the year 2010 and increased economies and synergies are produced.

(ii) Q brand name:

The intangible asset relating to the brand name for Q amounted to €67.1 million and is included in “Other Intangibles” in the intangible assets schedule (note 15). This asset is not amortized since it has an indefinite life. The determination of the recoverable amount of the Q brand is based on the key assumptions outlined above and the Company believes that no reasonably possible change in any of the key assumptions would cause the carrying amount of the CGU to exceed its recoverable amount.

(iii) Tellas brand name:

The intangible asset relating to the brand name for Tellas amounted to €65.5 million, is a result of the finalization of the purchase price allocation for the Wind PPC Holdings N.V. acquisition and is included in “Other Intangibles” in the intangible assets schedule (note 15). This asset is not amortized since it has an indefinite life. The determination of the recoverable amount of the Tellas brand is based on the key assumptions outlined above and the Company believes that no reasonably possible change in any of the key assumptions would cause the carrying amount of the CGU to exceed its recoverable amount.

The Company discovered that the unbilled traffic revenue and the related accrual for the years 2008 and 2007 were overstated by €3.2 million and €10.4 million net of income tax, respectively. This overstatement was a result of a technical problem identified with the report that the Company used in determining this accrual.

Morgan Europe Limited as issuing bank, agent and security agent. The Revolving Credit Facility initially provided for commitments of up to €250 million in the form of a revolving facility and a domestic facility, which commitments were automatically reduced to €200 million upon consummation of the cash-out merger of WIND Hellas with and into Troy GAC Telecommunications S.A on 3 November 2005. The facility was further reduced to €150 million on 20 April 2007, the closing date of the acquisition of Hellas by Weather Investments S.p.A.

(24)

Hellas III and Hellas V obtained consents from the holders of the Senior Notes and the Senior Secured Notes, respectively, and Hellas V has obtained waivers and consent from creditors under the Revolving Credit Facility to permit the issuance of €97.25 million of Senior Secured Notes and the Subordinated Notes on 21 December 2006.

On 2 March 2007, Hellas II, Hellas III and Hellas V completed a consent solicitation process, having obtained consents from the holders of the Subordinated Notes, the Senior Notes and the Senior Secured Notes, respectively, to among other things, permit the one-time waiver of the change of control covenant of each of (i) the amended and restated indenture dated 18 December 2006 (the “Senior Secured Indenture”), among Hellas V, the Guarantors as defined therein, The Bank of New York and others, pursuant to which the Senior Secured Notes were issued, (ii) the indenture dated 21 December 2006 (the “Subordinated Indenture”), among Hellas II, The Bank of New York and others, pursuant to which the Subordinated Notes were issued and (iii) the amended and restated indenture dated 18 December 2006 (the “Senior Indenture”), among Hellas III, the Guarantors as defined therein, the Bank of New York and others, pursuant to which the Senior Notes were issued which would otherwise have required the relevant company to make a change of control offer upon completion of the proposed sale by the sellers of Hellas to Weather Investments S.p.A.. The Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed by Hellas II and certain of its subsidiaries, including WIND Hellas on a senior basis and are secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of Hellas II and certain of its subsidiaries, including WIND Hellas. The Senior Notes are guaranteed by Hellas II and certain of its subsidiaries, including WIND Hellas, on a senior subordinated basis and are secured by junior liens on the shares of WIND Hellas, all inter-company bond loans owed to Hellas III and the bank accounts of Hellas III. The Subordinated Notes are secured by liens over certain equity interests in Hellas II.

Transaction costs directly related to the issuance of the Senior Notes, the Senior Secured Notes, the Subordinated Notes and the Revolving Credit Facility have been considered as reductions in the proceeds from these issuances and are amortized over the life of the debt instruments using the effective interest method.

The Senior Secured Notes and the Subordinated Notes (collectively, the “Notes”) have been issued under the Senior Secured Indenture and the Subordinated Indenture, respectively, among Hellas V and the Senior Secured Guarantors, and Hellas II, as applicable, the Senior Secured Trustee or the Subordinated Trustees, respectively, and the Security Agent (collectively, the "Indentures").

The Indentures contain covenants including, among others, the following restrictions: incur or guarantee additional indebtedness;

pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem the Company’s stock; make investments or other restricted payments;

create liens;

enter into certain transactions with affiliates;

enter into agreements that restrict the Company’s restricted subsidiaries' ability to pay dividends; and

(25)

If an event of default of the covenants and the continuance of the default, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately. If an event of default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the parent guarantor occurs and is continuing, the principal of and interest on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Under certain circumstances, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences. Further to the abovementioned covenants, the Revolving Credit Facility contains various covenants substantially similar to the covenants in the indentures governing the Senior Secured Notes, the Senior Notes and the Subordinated Notes. In addition, the Revolving Credit Facility contains a financial covenant relating to the maintenance of the ratio of net senior secured debt to consolidated earnings before income taxes depreciation and amortization of Hellas II and certain of its subsidiaries which is tested quarterly. As at 30 June 2009, the Company is in compliance with all covenants.

The Company’s assets that have been pledged as security for financial liabilities as of 30 June 2009 amount to €755 million and comprise of trade receivable (€106 million), inventories (€11 million), cash (€32 million) and property plant and equipment (€606 million).

For finance expenses incurred for the Company’s financial liabilities for the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 2008, refer to note 12.

(b) Related party borrowing

Included in non-current financing from related parties are the preferred equity certificates (“PECs”) issued to Hellas I. On 21 December 2006, the Company issued PECs with a par value of €191.1 million. The accrued interest on the PECs is determined with reference to the interest rate earned on PIK Notes issued by Hellas Telecommunications Finance SCA, a subsidiary of Hellas I, of three-month EURIBOR plus 8%. These outstanding PECs have a mandatory redemption date of 21 December 2036 at a redemption price equal to the sum of the par value for each outstanding PEC and accrued interest earned. During 2009 and 2008, no new PECs were issued by the Company.

Total 84,304 50,363

As at 30 June 2009, the Company had the following derivative financial liabilities outstanding which are described as follows:

i. Three interest rate swap contracts with notional amounts of €1,125 million. The notional amounts indicated are effective to 14 October 2010. These amounts are subsequently reduced to €550 million effective 15 October 2010 to 15 October 2012. These contracts were entered into in October 2005. ii. Four interest rate swap contracts with notional amounts of €1,057.25 million. The notional amounts

indicated are effective to 15 October 2009. These amounts are subsequently reduced to €530 million effective 15 October 2009 to 15 October 2012. These contracts were initially entered into by the Company in December 2006 with a total notional amount of €1,060 million and in January 2007, the notional amounts of two of these contracts were amended from €100 million to €97.25 million, while the other terms remained unchanged.

iii. Two cross-currency interest rate swap contracts with notional amounts of €210 million. The notional amounts indicated are effective to 15 January 2010. These contracts were initially entered into by the Company in December 2006 as one cross-currency interest rate swap contract and were subsequently amended in January 2007 to split them into two contracts. All other terms remained the same.

The above contracts were entered into by the Company in order to mitigate its exposure to interest and exchange rate fluctuations associated with its variable rate financial liabilities.

The first three interest rate swap contracts qualified for hedge accounting (cash flow hedges) up to August 2006 and the resulting gains or losses, net of tax impact, from the valuation of the derivatives up to that date (net gain of €16.5 million) were reflected directly within equity in 2006. Starting September 2006, the Company revoked the designation of the swap contracts as a cash flow hedge and any further changes in their fair value has been included in finance income in the condensed consolidated interim statement of comprehensive income (note 12).

Independent Auditors’ Report on Review of Interim Financial Information

To the Shareholders of

Hellas Telecommunications II S.C.A.:

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position of Hellas Telecommunications II S.C.A. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as at 30 June 2009, the condensed consolidated interim statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six month period then ended (the “Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Information”). Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Information in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”, as adopted in the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Information as at 30 June 2009 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted in the European Union.

Emphasis of matter

Without qualifying our review opinion, we draw your attention to Note 5 of the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Information which describes that during the second quarter of 2009, the Company experienced a significant revenue decline as a result of the following factors: (1) the significant competitive market leading to price reductions, (2) the regulatory reduction in interconnection tariffs and (3) the existing economic crisis. These factors have not allowed the Company to generate sufficient revenues and cash flows to sustain its operations and therefore the Company has had to rely on financing activities to supplement cash from operations. Furthermore, due to the fact that the Company is highly leveraged, the above factors may constrain the Company’s ability to meet its broader strategic objectives as well as its future interest payments which may lead to a potential risk of default of its financial debt covenant. These conditions, along with other matters described in Notes 5 and 18 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Information, indicates the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
