______________________________________
The 500,000,000 Perpetual Fixed Rate Resettable Capital Securities (the Securities) will be issued by
Koninklijke KPN N.V. (the Issuer) on 21 September 2022 (the Issue Date). The Securities will bear
interest on their principal amount from (and including) the Issue Date to (but excluding) 21 December
2027 (the First Reset Date) at a rate of 6.000 per cent. per annum, payable annually in arrear on 21
December in each year, except that the first payment of interest, to be made on 21 December 2022, will
be in respect of the period from (and including) the Issue Date to (but excluding) 21 December 2022 and
will amount to 14.96 per 1,000 in principal amount of the Securities. Thereafter, unless previously
redeemed, the Securities will bear interest from (and including) 21 December 2027 to (but excluding) 21
December 2032 at a rate per annum which shall be 3.769 per cent. above the Reset Reference Rate (as
defined in the Terms and Conditions of the Securities (the Conditions)) for the relevant Reset Period (as

particularly described in "Terms and Conditions of the Securities -- Interest Payments".
If the Issuer does not elect to redeem the Securities in accordance with Condition 6(g) following the
occurrence of a Change of Control Event (as defined in the Conditions), the then prevailing interest rate
per annum (and each subsequent interest rate per annum otherwise determined in accordance with the
Conditions) shall be increased by 5 percentage points per annum with effect from (and including) the date
on which the Change of Control Event occurred, see "Terms and Conditions of the Securities -- Interest
Payments -- Step-up after Change of Control".
The Issuer may, at its discretion, elect to defer all or part of any payment of interest on the Securities as
more particularly described in "Terms and Conditions of the Securities -- Optional Interest Deferral".
Any amounts so deferred, together with further interest accrued thereon (at the interest rate per annum
prevailing from time to time), shall constitute Arrears of Interest (as defined in the Conditions). The
Issuer may pay outstanding Arrears of Interest, in whole or in part, at any time in accordance with the
Conditions. Notwithstanding this, the Issuer shall pay any outstanding Arrears of Interest, in whole but
not in part, on the first Mandatory Settlement Date, all as more particularly described in "Terms and
Conditions of the Securities -- Optional Interest Deferral -- Mandatory Settlement".
The Securities will be perpetual securities in respect of which there is no fixed redemption date and shall
be redeemable (at the option of the Issuer) in whole but not in part at any time from (and including) 21
September 2027 (the First Call Date) to (and including) the First Reset Date, and thereafter, on each
applicable Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Conditions), at the principal amount of the Securities,
together with any accrued and unpaid interest up to (but excluding) such date and any outstanding Arrears
of Interest. Following the exercise by the Issuer at any time other than during the period from (and
including) the First Call Date to (and including) the First Reset Date or upon any subsequent Interest
Payment Date, of the Make-whole Redemption, the Securities may be redeemed, in whole but not in part,

at their Make-whole Redemption Amount (as defined in the Conditions). In addition, upon the occurrence

of an Accounting Event, a Change of Control Event, a Rating Event, a Substantial Repurchase Event, a
Tax Deduction Event or a Withholding Tax Event by the Issuer (each such term as defined in the
Conditions), the Securities shall be redeemable (at the option of the Issuer) in whole but not in part at the
prices set out, and as more particularly described, in "Terms and Conditions of the Securities --
Redemption".
The Securities will be unsecured securities of the Issuer and will constitute subordinated obligations of
the Issuer, all as more particularly described in "Terms and Conditions of the Securities -- Status", and
"Terms and Conditions of the Securities -- Subordination".
Payments in respect of the Securities shall be made free and clear of, and without withholding or
deduction for, or on account of, taxes of the Netherlands, unless such withholding or deduction is required
by law. In the event that any such withholding or deduction is made, additional amounts may be payable
by the Issuer, subject to certain exceptions as are more fully described in "Terms and Conditions of the
Securities -- Taxation".
This Offering Circular does not comprise a prospectus for the purposes of Article 8 of Regulation (EU)
2017/1129 (the Prospectus Regulation). Application has been made to The Irish Stock Exchange plc
trading as Euronext Dublin (Euronext Dublin) for the approval of this Offering Circular as Listing
Particulars. Application has been made to Euronext Dublin for the Securities to be admitted to the official
list (the Official List) and to trading on the Global Exchange Market of Euronext Dublin (GEM).
References in this Offering Circular to the Securities being "listed" (and all related references) shall mean
that the Securities have been admitted to the Official List and have been admitted to trading on GEM.
GEM is the exchange regulated market of Euronext Dublin and is not a regulated market in the EEA for
the purposes of Directive 2014/65/EU.
The Securities have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
Securities Act) or under any securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States and are
subject to U.S. tax law requirements. The Securities may not be offered, sold, transferred or delivered,
directly or indirectly, within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons except
pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements
of the Securities Act and applicable state and other securities laws of the United States. There will be no
public offer of the Securities in the United States. The Securities are being offered and sold in offshore
transactions in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act (Regulation S).
The Securities will initially be represented by a temporary global security (the Temporary Global
Security), without coupons or talons, which will be deposited with a common depositary on behalf of
Euroclear Bank SA/NV (Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking, S.A. (Clearstream, Luxembourg) on or
about the Issue Date. The Temporary Global Security will be exchangeable for interests in a permanent
global security (the Permanent Global Security and, together with the Temporary Global Security, the
Global Securities), without coupons or talons, on or after a date which is expected to be 31 October
2022, upon certification as to non-U.S. beneficial ownership. See "Summary of Provisions relating to the
Securities while in Global Form".
The Securities are expected to be rated BB+ by S&P Global Ratings Europe Limited (S&P) and BB+ by
Fitch Ratings Ireland Ltd. (Fitch) (each a Rating Agency). Each of S&P and Fitch is established in the
European Union and is registered under Regulation (EC) No. 1060/2009 (as amended) of the European
Parliament and of the Council of 16 September 2009 on credit rating agencies (the CRA Regulation). A
rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to suspension, reduction
or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency.
The determination of the Reset Reference Rate in respect of the Securities is dependent upon the mid-
swap rate for euro interest rate swaps with a term of 5 (five) years as displayed on Reuters screen
"ICESWAP2" as at 11:00 a.m. (Central European time) provided by ICE Benchmark Administration
Limited and the 6-month EURIBOR rate administered by the European Money Markets Institute. As at
the date of this Offering Circular, the European Money Markets Institute is included in the register of
administrators and benchmarks established and maintained by the European Securities and Markets
Authority (ESMA) pursuant to Article 36 of Regulation (EU) No 2016/1011, as amended (the EU
Benchmarks Regulation). ICE Benchmark Administration Limited does not appear on the register of
administrators and benchmarks established and maintained by ESMA pursuant to Article 36 of the
Benchmarks Regulation. However, the transitional provisions in Article 51 of the Benchmarks Regulation

apply, such that ICE Benchmark Administration Limited is not currently required to obtain recognition,
endorsement or equivalence.

MIFID II product governance / Professional investors and ECPs only target market
Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer's product approval process, the target market
assessment in respect of the Securities has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the
Securities is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in Directive
2014/65/EU (as amended, MiFID II); and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Securities to
eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently
offering, selling or recommending the Securities (a distributor) should take into consideration
the manufacturers' target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is
responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Securities (by
either adopting or refining the manufacturers' target market assessment) and determining
appropriate distribution channels.
PRIIPs Regulation / Prohibition of sales to EEA retail investors The Securities are not
intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or
otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (EEA). For
these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as
defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of
Directive 2016/97/EU (the Insurance Distribution Directive), where that customer would not
qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II.
Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as
amended, the PRIIPs Regulation) for offering or selling the Securities or otherwise making
them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling
the Securities or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be
unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.
UK PRIIPs Regulation / Prohibition of sales to UK retail investors - The Securities are not
intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or
otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom (UK). For these
purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined
in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 2017/565 as it forms part of domestic law of the
UK by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (EUWA); or (ii) a customer within
the meaning of the provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA) and any
rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement Directive (EU) 2016/97, where that
customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of
Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law of the UK by virtue of the
EUWA. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No
1286/2014 as it forms part of domestic law of the UK by virtue of the EUWA (the UK PRIIPs
Regulation) for offering or selling the Securities or otherwise making them available to retail
investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Securities or
otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK
PRIIPs Regulation.
The Structuring Adviser and the Joint Lead Managers do not accept any responsibility for any
third party social, environmental and sustainability assessment of any Securities or makes any
representation or warranty or assurance whether the Securities will meet any investor

5

expectations or requirements regarding such "green" or similar labels. The Managers are not
responsible for the monitoring of the use of proceeds for the Securities. No representation or
assurance is given by the Structuring Adviser or the Joint Lead Managers as to the suitability or
reliability of the Issuer's Green Finance Framework (as defined herein) or any opinion or
certification of any third party made available in connection with an issue of Securities and any
such opinion or certification is not a recommendation by Structuring Adviser or any Joint Lead
Manager to buy, sell or hold any such Securities. In the event any such Securities are listed or
admitted to trading on a dedicated "green" or other equivalently-labelled segment of a stock
exchange or securities market, no representation or assurance is given by the Managers that
such listing or admission will be obtained or maintained for the lifetime of the Securities.
The Issuer's exposure to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risks, and the related
management arrangements established to mitigate those risks has been assessed by several
agencies, including Carbon Disclosure Project, Dow Jones Sustainability Index, Dutch
Sustainable Brand Index, Ecovadis and MSCI, through environmental, social and governance
ratings (ESG ratings). ESG ratings may vary amongst ESG ratings agencies as the
methodologies used to determine ESG ratings may differ. The Issuer's ESG ratings are not
necessarily indicative of its current or future operating or financial performance, or any future
ability to service the Securities and are only current as of the dates on which they were initially
issued. Prospective investors must determine for themselves the relevance of any such ESG
ratings information contained in this Offering Circular or elsewhere in making an investment
decision. Furthermore, ESG ratings shall not be deemed to be a recommendation by the Issuer
or any other person to buy, sell or hold the Securities. Currently, the providers of such ESG
ratings are not subject to any regulatory or other similar oversight in respect of their
determination and award of ESG ratings. For more information regarding the evaluation
methodologies used to determine ESG ratings, please refer to the relevant ratings agency's
website (which website does not form a part of, nor is incorporated by reference in, this
Offering Circular).
The Securities may not be a suitable investment for all investors. Each potential investor in the
Securities must determine the suitability of that investment in light of its own circumstances. In
particular, each potential investor should:
(a)
have sufficient knowledge and experience to make a meaningful evaluation of the
Securities, the merits and risks of investing in the Securities and the information
contained or incorporated by reference in this Offering Circular or any applicable
supplement;
(b)
have access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context
of its particular financial situation, an investment in the Securities and the impact the
Securities will have on its overall investment portfolio;
(c)
have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment
in the Securities, including where principal or interest is payable in one or more
currencies, or where the currency for principal or interest payments is different from the
potential investor's currency;
(d)
understand thoroughly the terms of the Securities and be familiar with the behaviour of
the relevant financial markets and of any financial variable which might have an impact
on the return on the Securities; and
(e)
be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible
scenarios for economic, interest rate and other factors that may affect its investment and
its ability to bear the applicable risks.

6

The Securities are complex financial instruments and such instruments may be purchased by
potential investors as a way to reduce risk or enhance yield with an understood, measured,
appropriate addition of risk to their overall portfolios. A potential investor should not invest in
the Securities unless it has the expertise (either alone or with a financial adviser) to evaluate
how the Securities will perform under changing conditions, the resulting effects on the value of
the Securities and the impact this investment will have on the potential investor's overall
investment portfolio.
Prospective investors should also consult their own tax advisers as to the tax consequences of
the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Securities.
The investment activities of certain investors are subject to legal investment laws and
regulations, or review or regulation by certain authorities. Each potential investor should consult
its legal advisers to determine whether and to what extent (1) the Securities are legal
investments for it, (2) the Securities can be used as collateral for various types of borrowing and
(3) other restrictions apply to its purchase or pledge of any of the Securities. Financial
institutions should consult their legal advisers or the appropriate regulators to determine the
appropriate treatment of Securities under any applicable risk-based capital or similar rules.
Unless otherwise specified or the context requires, references to , EUR and euro are to the
lawful currency introduced at the start of the third stage of European Economic and Monetary
Union pursuant to the Treaty establishing the European Community and references to U.S.$,
USD and dollars are to the lawful currency of the United States of America.
References to the Issuer and KPN are to Koninklijke KPN N.V. and, as the context requires,

Any forward looking statements contained in this Offering Circular speak only as at the date of
this Offering Circular. Without prejudice to any requirements under applicable laws and
regulations, the Issuer expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to disseminate after the
date of this Offering Circular any updates or revisions to any forward looking statements
contained herein to reflect any change in expectations thereof or any change in events,
conditions or circumstances on which any such forward looking statement is based.
In connection with the issue of the Securities, Barclays Bank Ireland PLC (the Stabilising
Manager) (or any person acting on behalf of the Stabilising Manager) may over-allot Securities
or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Securities at a level
higher than that which might otherwise prevail. However, stabilisation may not necessarily
occur. Any stabilisation action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public
disclosure of the terms of the offer of the Securities is made and, if begun, may cease at any
time, but it must end no later than the earlier of 30 days after the issue date of the Securities and
60 days after the date of the allotment of the Securities. Any stabilisation action or over-
allotment must be conducted by the Stabilising Manager (or any person acting on behalf of the
Stabilising Manager) in accordance with all applicable laws and rules.
