HISTORY

In 1928, Congress passed Act No. 3495 granting the Robert Dollar Company, a corporation
organized and existing under the laws of the State of California, a franchise to operate wireless
long distance message services in the Philippines. The Robert Dollar Company subsequently
incorporated in the Philippines as Globe Wireless Limited and in 1934, Congress passed Act No.
4150 transferring the franchise and privileges of the Robert Dollar Company to Globe Wireless
Limited.

Globe Wireless Limited was subsequently renamed Globe Mackay Cable and Radio Corporation.
Congress, through Republic Act 4630 enacted in 1965, further expanded its franchise to allow it
to operate international communications systems. Globe Mackay Cable and Radio Corporation
was closed in the Philippines by Martial law. Shortly before the expiration of its franchise, the
Batasan Pambansa in 1980 enacted Batas Pambansa 95 granting Globe Mackay Cable and Radio
Corporation a new franchise.

On June 15, 1990, Isla Communications Co., Inc. (Islacom) was incorporated. Through Republic
Act 7372, Islacom was authorized to develop full-service telecommunications network in the
country.

In 1991, Globe Mackay was subsequently merged with the Clavecilla Radio Corporation. Globe
Mackay as the surviving company was renamed GMCR, Inc. and on March 19, 1992, the
Philippine Congress passed Republic Act 7229 approving the merger and the transfer of the
franchise of Clavecilla Radio Corporation to the surviving company to be renamed GMCR, Inc.

In 1994, Islacom launched the country's first digital mobile communication services using GSM
world standard digital technology.

On August 20, 1998, the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the
change of name of GMCR, Inc. to Globe Telecom, Inc. (Globe).

On February 22, 2000, Globe and its principal shareholders Ayala Corporation (AC) and
Singapore Telecom International Pte. Ltd. (STI), a wholly owned subsidiary of Singapore
Telecom (ST), and Islacom and its principal shareholders Asiacom Philippines, Inc.(Asiacom)
and DeTeAsia Holding GmbH (DeTeAsia), a wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom AG
(DT), entered into a general agreement for a combination of the business and operations of Globe
and Islacom.
On June 27, 2001, Globe completed the share swap transaction with Islacom, which effectively
made Islacom a 100%-owned subsidiary of Globe.

In September 2002, Globe announced the operational integration of Globe and Islacom's wireless
networks. A key element of the integration involves the migration of existing wireless subscribers
of Islacom to the improved Touch Mobile (TM) service.

On August 7, 2003, the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) approved the legal
transfer of Globe's wireline business, authorizations, properties, assets and obligations to Islacom.

On August 25, 2003, the SEC approved the change in name of Islacom to Innove
Communications, Inc. (Innove).

On March 30, 2007, Globe Telecom, through its president and chief executive Gerardo Ablaza Jr.
said it is diversifying from its core business to take advantage of the booming broadband
business. Ablaza said the company would increase its investments in cable systems and wire lines
to build its broadband Internet infrastructure. Industry analysts have viewed Globe's plan to invest
in cable systems as a strategy to compete more aggressively with Philippine Long Distance
Telephone Company (PLDT), which took advantage of its wire line infrastructure to diversify
into broadband business.

Administrators

The President & CEO, guided by the Company’s vision, mission, and values statements, is
accountable to the Board for the development and recommendation of strategies, and the
execution of the defined strategic imperatives. The President & CEO is assisted by the Deputy
CEO to whom the heads of each of the major business units and support groups report.

The Office of Strategy Management (OSM) reports to the Deputy CEO and oversees the
Company’s strategy management processes from strategy formulation, translation to executable
plans, horizontal alignment of business objectives across the organization, to execution and
performance tracking linked to the Company’s rewards system.

Every year, the Company reviews and formulates its strategic priorities which then guide the
formulation of the key business strategies and goals for the year. Using the balanced scorecard
framework, each business group identifies financial and non-financial objectives, and sets targets
and initiatives to achieve them. This is captured in what is called the groups’ Terms of Reference
(TOR). To ensure line of sight, the group TORs are cascaded to all employees, making sure that
everyone understands and appreciates their contribution to the group goals. This helps in
developing individual performance plans that are aligned with the key strategies. Rewards and
incentives are given based on the achievement of the committed group and individual targets.

Key programs, projects, and major organizational initiatives are taken up at the SEG, composed
of the President & CEO, the Deputy CEO, as well as the heads of each of the major business units
and support groups. All budgets and major capital expenditures must be approved by the SEG
prior to endorsement to the Board for approval. The Chief Operating Adviser and Chief Technical
Adviser also provide inputs to the SEG as required. The SEG meets at least twice a month.

Management is mandated to provide complete and accurate information on the operations and
affairs of the Company in a timely manner. Management is also required to prepare financial
statements for each preceding financial year in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting
Standards (PFRS). Management’s statement of responsibility with regards to the Company’s
financial statements is included in this annual report.
The annual compensation of the ten (10) top officers of the Company, including the President &
CEO, is disclosed in the Definitive Information Statement distributed to the shareholders. The
total annual compensation includes the basic salary, guaranteed bonuses, fixed allowances, and
variable pay (performance-based annual incentive).
