VOTE ON THE TCI MERGER

If you own AT&T stock - whether through a broker, your savings plan or
individual shares - be sure to cast your vote on the proposed merger with TCI by
February 17, 1999. TCI is one of the country's leading cable-television
companies, and we believe this merger will help secure AT&T's long-term
leadership as a total communications provider. For more information about the
merger and the voting process, check out the AT&T Investor Relations site or
call AT&T Shareowner Services on 1-800-947-9727.

Dear Encore readers:

AT&T is taking an important step to grow and energize our business. We are
proposing a merger with Tele-Communications Inc. (TCI), one of the country's
leading cable-television companies. We believe this merger will secure our
long-term leadership in the industry by positioning AT&T as a total
communications provider for the future.

There are several ways you can help this merger succeed.

First, if you own AT&T stock -- whether through a broker, your savings plan or
individual shares -- be sure to cast your vote on the proposed merger with TCI
by February 17, 1999. Shareowners have been mailed a package that contains a
detailed proxy statement, instructions and a ballot card. (Those who own shares
through multiple sources may receive several ballots and should vote on each of
them.) AT&T's Board of Directors has carefully considered this merger and
unanimously recommends approving the proposal. But if a shareowner takes no
action at all, it will, in effect, count as a vote against the merger.

Second, if friends or family members ask you about the proposed merger, please
share with them this information:

         - By merging TCI's operations with ours, we can weave their powerful,
high-speed cable network into our AT&T Worldwide Intelligent Network, adapting
the cable facilities for handling telephone calls and more.

         - This merger will give AT&T its first direct, "broadband" connection
to customers' homes using lines we own and control.

         - Broadband is much faster and can carry more pictures, sound, data and
video than a normal phone line.

         - Broadband will allow us to offer a wider spectrum of services under
the AT&T brand, including local telephone service, long distance service,
wireless/cellular service, Internet access, and cable- and pay-television
entertainment services.

If you'd like more information about the merger and the voting process, check
out the AT&T Investor Relations site at www.att.com/ir or call AT&T Shareowner
Services on 1-800-947-9727.

And if you know other AT&T retirees who may be interested in this development,
please pass this message along.

Best wishes for the new year,
