Telefónica SA is a Spanish multinational telecommunications company offering fixed-line and mobile phone services, broadband internet access, and pay television.

This financial article provides an overview of a specific debt instrument, namely a bond issued by Telefonica SA, a prominent Spanish telecommunications conglomerate. Headquartered in Spain, Telefonica SA stands as a global leader in integrated telecommunication services, offering a comprehensive portfolio including fixed and mobile connectivity, broadband, and digital services across key markets in Europe and Latin America. Its extensive operational footprint and significant market penetration position it as a major player in both equity and debt capital markets. The bond in question, identifiable by its ISIN US87938WAG87 and CUSIP 87938WAG8, was denominated in US Dollars and carried a fixed annual interest rate of 6.221%. The total issuance size for this obligation amounted to $700,000,000, with a minimum trading increment set at $1,000. Interest payments were structured on a semi-annual basis, aligning with common bond market practices. A critical characteristic of this particular instrument is its maturity status; the bond reached its full maturity on July 3, 2017, and has since been completely repaid and retired from circulation, which was reflected by its 100% redemption price on the market at that time. Throughout its active life, the bond's credit quality was assessed by leading independent rating agencies. Standard & Poor's assigned a 'BBB' rating to this obligation, while Moody's provided a 'Baa3' rating. Both classifications signify an investment-grade credit standing, indicating a moderate level of credit risk for investors during the bond's operational tenure. The successful repayment of this substantial debt issuance underscores Telefonica SA's consistent adherence to its financial commitments and contributes to its reputation as a reliable issuer in the international fixed-income landscape.

IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS
SUPPLEMENT
AND THE ACCOMPANYING PROSPECTUS

This document is in two parts. The first part is this Prospectus Supplement, which
describes the specific terms of this offering of the Notes and also adds to and updates information
contained in the accompanying Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this
Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus. The second part is the accompanying
Prospectus which gives more general information, some of which does not apply to this offering.

If the description of this offering varies between this Prospectus Supplement and the
accompanying Prospectus, you should rely on the information contained in or incorporated by
reference in this Prospectus Supplement.

In this Prospectus Supplement and any other prospectus supplements, the "Issuer" refers to
Telefónica Emisiones, S.A.U. and "Telefónica", "Telefónica, S.A." the "Group" or the
"Guarantor" refer to Telefónica, S.A. and, where applicable, its consolidated subsidiaries, unless
the context otherwise requires. We use the words "we", "us" and "our" to refer to the Issuer or the
Guarantor, as the context requires. We use the word "you" to refer to prospective investors in the
securities.

SPANISH WITHHOLDING TAX REQUIREMENTS

Under Spanish law, interest payments in respect of the Notes will be subject to
withholding tax in Spain, currently at the rate of 18%, in the case of (i) individual holders
who are resident for tax purposes in Spain and (ii) holders who receive payments through a
Tax Haven (as defined in Royal Decree 1080/1991, of July 5 as amended). Each of the Issuer
and the Guarantor is required pursuant to Spanish law to submit to the Spanish tax
authorities certain details relating to owners of a beneficial interest in the Notes (each a
"Beneficial Owner") who receive interest payments on the Notes. Beneficial Owners in
respect of whom such information is not provided to the Issuer or the Guarantor in
accordance with the procedures described herein will receive payments net of Spanish
withholding tax, currently at the rate of 18%. Neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor will pay
Additional Amounts (as defined herein) in respect of any such withholding tax in any of the
above cases. See "Taxation--Spanish Tax Considerations--Evidencing of Beneficial Owner
Residency in Connection with Interest Payments".

We, the Guarantor, Acupay System LLC ("Acupay") and The Bank of New York (as
successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and in its capacity as Paying Agent and for other
limited purposes, the "Paying Agent") have entered into a tax certification agency agreement
dated June 20, 2006 (the "Tax Certification Agency Agreement") and we, the Guarantor and
Acupay will enter into a letter of appointment to be dated as of the issue date of the Notes
(the "Letter of Appointment") pursuant to and amending the Tax Certification Agency
Agreement. Beneficial Owners may not be beneficiaries under the Tax Certification Agency
Agreement. The Letter of Appointment will incorporate, among other things, certain
procedures arranged by Acupay, DTC and Euroclear that will facilitate the collection of
information regarding the identity and residence of Beneficial Owners who (i) are exempt
from Spanish withholding tax requirements and therefore entitled to receive payments in
respect of the Notes free and clear of Spanish withholding taxes and (ii) are (a) direct
participants in DTC, (b) hold their interests through securities brokers and dealers, banks,
trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a direct or
indirect custodial relationship with a direct participant in DTC, including Euroclear (each
such entity an "indirect DTC participant"), or (c) hold their interests through direct DTC
participants. These procedures are set forth in Annexes A, B and C to this Prospectus
Supplement. No arrangements or procedures have been made by the Issuer or the Guarantor
with respect to any depository or clearing system other than the procedures arranged by
Acupay, DTC and Euroclear mentioned above.

Neither DTC nor Euroclear is under any obligation to continue to perform such
procedures and such procedures may be modified or discontinued at any time. In addition,

DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depositary with respect to
the Notes at any time by giving reasonable notice to us.

The Issuer and the Guarantor have agreed in the Indenture, so long as any principal
amount of the Notes remains outstanding, to, insofar as it is practicable, maintain or
implement procedures to facilitate the collection of information concerning the identity and
country of residence of Beneficial Owners so long as such collection is required under
Spanish law to allow payment of interest on the Notes free and clear of Spanish withholding
tax. However, neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor can assure you that it will be practicable
to do so.

The Tax Certification Agency Agreement, according to its terms, including the tax
certification procedures annexed thereto, may be modified, amended or supplemented only
by an instrument in writing duly executed by the Issuer, the Guarantor, Acupay and the
Paying Agent, the parties to such agreement (except if such modification, amendment or
supplement does not affect the rights and obligations of the Paying Agent, in which case
neither the consent of the Paying Agent nor its execution of such instrument shall be
required); provided, however, that any modification, amendment or supplement to the tax
certification procedures may be made only if it is (i) necessary to reflect a change in
applicable Spanish law, regulation, ruling or interpretation thereof, provided that the parties
to the Tax Certification Agency Agreement are provided with an opinion of independent
Spanish counsel to the effect that such modification, amendment or supplement is necessary
as a result of such change in applicable Spanish law, regulation, ruling or interpretation
thereof, (ii) necessary to reflect a change in applicable clearing systems rules or procedures
or to add procedures for one or more new clearing systems, provided that the parties to the
Tax Certification Agency Agreement are provided with written communication from the
applicable clearing system or clearing systems to this effect (including, without limitation,
written communications in the form of an e-mail or written posting) and an opinion of
independent Spanish counsel to the effect that such modified or new procedures do not
conflict with applicable Spanish tax legislation or (iii) not materially detrimental to Beneficial
Owners, as evidenced, in the case of any modification, amendment or supplement that
requires the prior written consent of the Paying Agent, an officer's certificate of the Issuer
and the Guarantor to that effect, on which the Paying Agent shall be entitled to rely when
consenting to such modification, amendment or supplement under this item (iii); and
provided further that any modification, amendment or supplement of any of the rights or
duties of the Paying Agent thereunder, shall require the prior written consent of the Paying
Agent.

The tax certification procedures set forth in Annexes A and B to this Prospectus
Supplement provide that payments of interest to any DTC participants that fail or for any
reason are unable to comply with the procedures herein for the provision of the required
Beneficial Owner information in respect of all Beneficial Owners who are entitled to an
exemption from Spanish withholding tax and who own their beneficial interests in the Notes
through such participants, will be paid net of Spanish withholding tax in respect of such DTC
participant's entire beneficial interest in the Notes. In particular, should the required
Beneficial Owner information submitted by a direct DTC participant to Acupay be
inconsistent with its EDS Elections (as defined in Annex A hereto) and/or DTC holdings in
the Notes on any Interest Payment Date, then such direct DTC participant will be paid net of
Spanish withholding tax with respect to such direct DTC participant's entire holding in the
Notes. If this were to occur, affected Beneficial Owners who hold their beneficial interests in
the Notes directly or indirectly through such direct DTC participant (other than Beneficial
Owners who hold their beneficial interests in the Notes through Euroclear or participants in
Euroclear) would have to follow the quick refund procedures set forth in Article II of
Annex A to this Prospectus Supplement. Affected Beneficial Owners who hold their
beneficial interests in the Notes through Euroclear or participants in Euroclear would have
to follow the quick refund procedures set forth in Article II of Annex B to this Prospectus
Supplement. Beneficial Owners may also apply directly to the Spanish tax authorities for any
refund to which they may be entitled pursuant to the procedures set forth in Article II of
Annex C to this Prospectus Supplement. See "Taxation--Spanish Tax Considerations--
Evidencing of Beneficial Owner Residency in Connection with Interest Payments". We and
the Guarantor will not pay any Additional Amounts with respect to any such withholding.

If DTC or the direct or indirect participants in DTC, including Euroclear, are unable

to facilitate the collection of the required Beneficial Owner information, we may
attempt to remove the Notes from DTC, and this may affect the liquidity of the Notes.
Provision has been made for each series of the Notes to be represented by certificated Notes
in the event that the Notes cease to be held through DTC. See "Description of the Notes and
the Guarantee--Form, Denomination, Transfer and Registration".

See "Risk Factors--Risks Relating to the Notes".
