WIND TRE GROUP Consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2017 REVIEW REPORT ON CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS To the Board of Directors of Wind Tre SpA Foreword We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements of Wind Tre SpA and its subsidiaries (the Wind Tre Group) as of 31 March 2017, comprising the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated statement of cash flows, consolidated statement of changes in equity and related notes. The directors of Wind Tre SpA are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 applicable to interim financial reporting (IAS 34) as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these consolidated interim financial statements based on our review. Scope of review We conducted our work in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagement 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the entity”. A review of consolidated interim financial statements consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than a full-scope 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 on the consolidated interim financial statements. Conclusion Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements of the Wind Tre Group as of 31 March 2017 are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 applicable to interim financial reporting (IAS 34) as adopted by the European Union. Emphasis of matter As an emphasis of matter, we draw your attention to the following: • as described in the introductions to the Notes (note 1), the effects of the transaction which led to the combination of the businesses of the former Wind and H3G operators in the Italian market have been reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the previous period since 31 October 2016; as a result the comparative income statement data as of and for the period ended 31 March 2016 cannot be immediately compared with the correspondent income statement data as of and for the period ended 31 March 2017; • transactions exist with the parent company and with other entities belonging to the CK Hutchison Holdings Ltd. and Vimpelcom Ltd groups, the most significant of which are disclosed in the Note 23 – Related party transactions. In our opinion the above emphasis of matters do not lead to a qualified review report. Other aspects The consolidated interim financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2016 have not been subject to audit or review.

V eon is incorporated under Bermuda law, domiciled in Claude Debussylaan 88, 1082 MD Amsterdam, Netherlands and listed on NASDAQ. The economic data for the first quarter 2017 are not immediately comparable with those of the same period of the previous year because they refer only to the balance sheet of the former H3G Group, which did not previously draw up interim financial statements under IAS 34 and that therefore the comparative figures have not been subject to review or review procedures by the audit firm. A proforma income statement is included in the Report on operations to simulate the effects of the merger since January 1, 2016. On the formation of the Joint Venture at the end of last year the respective holding and operating companies of the telecommunications businesses in Italy of CK Hutchison and VimpelCom, namely Wind Tre Italia and WIND Acquisition Holdings Finance SpA, and Wind Tre and WIND Telecomunicazioni SpA, and all their subsidiaries became subsidiaries of the Joint Venture, and the Joint Venture became the new parent company of the Group holding the telecommunications businesses in Italy of CK Hutchison and VimpelCom.
