following is a description of the relationship among SBC, Telmex (as defined

          In order to induce SBC and SBC Sub to enter into the Investment

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

Carso Global Telecom, S.A. de C.V. ("Carso") and Telefonos de Mexico, S.A. de
C.V. ("Telmex") entered into a Voting Agreement, dated as of November 19, 1999,
with SBC (the "Voting Agreement"). Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, each of
Telmex and Carso agreed, among other things, (i) to deliver to SBC an
irrevocable proxy to Vote (as defined in the Voting Agreement) their Shares (as
defined in the Investment Agreement) and any other shares of capital stock of
Prodigy acquired by them after the date of the Voting Agreement and prior to the
termination of the Voting Agreement in favor of adoption and approval of the
Investment Agreement, the Strategic Agreement and the transactions contemplated
thereby, the Transactions (as defined in the Voting Agreement) and the Charter
and By-Law Amendments (as defined in the Voting Agreement), (ii) against any
action or agreement that would compete with, impede, interfere with or tend to

Transactions, (iii) against any action that would result in a breach in any
material respect of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other
obligation of Prodigy or Operating Partnership under the Investment Agreement or
the Strategic Agreement and (iv) except for the Transactions and the Investment
Agreement, against any merger, consolidation, business combination,
reorganization, recapitalization, liquidation or sale or transfer of any
material assets of Prodigy or its Subsidiaries. In addition, each of Carso and
Telmex agreed not to transfer or otherwise dispose of any of their Shares, or
any other shares of capital stock of Prodigy acquired by them after the date of
the Voting Agreement and prior to the termination of the Voting Agreement.

          In addition, SBC agreed in Section 7 of the Voting Agreement to vote
or cause any of its Subsidiaries to vote all shares of Class A Common Stock and
Class B Common Stock owned or held of record by SBC or any of its Subsidiaries
at any meeting of Prodigy stockholders held for such purpose in favor of
electing up to three persons (subject to the provisions of the Voting Agreement)
designated by the Stockholders as Class A Directors (as defined in the Restated
Certificate of Incorporation) to the board of directors of Prodigy.

          In accordance with the Voting Agreement, on November 19, 1999 (i)
Carso delivered to SBC an irrevocable proxy of Carso, dated November 19, 1999
(the "Carso Proxy"), in respect of the 29,396,911 shares of Common Stock of
Prodigy owned of record by Carso on the date of the Voting Agreement and (ii)
Telmex delivered to SBC an irrevocable proxy of Telmex, dated November 19, 1999
(the "Telmex Proxy", and together with the Carso Proxy, the "Proxies"), in
respect of the 11,412,500 shares of Common Stock of Prodigy owned of record by
Telmex on the date of the Voting Agreement.

          By virtue of the Voting Agreement and the Proxies, SBC acquired
beneficial ownership on November 19, 1999 of the 40,809,411 shares of Common
Stock to which the Voting Agreement and Proxies related, as reported in SBC's
Original 13D.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

       In accordance with the Voting Agreements and Proxies, SBC voted the
40,809,411 shares of Common Stock to which the Proxies related in favor of
adoption and approval of the Investment Agreement, the Strategic Agreement and
the transactions contemplated thereby, the Transactions (as defined in the
Voting Agreement) and the Charter and By-Law Amendments (as defined in the
Voting Agreement) at the annual meeting of Prodigy shareholders held on May 24,
2000.

       On May 31, 2000, the transactions contemplated by the Investment
Agreement closed. By their terms, the Proxies and, except for Section 7 of the
Voting Agreement, the Voting Agreement terminated and SBC no longer has
beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock.

II. Beneficial Ownership of Class A Common Stock
------------------------------------------------

       Upon the Closing of the Unit Issuance and Investment Share Issuance and
the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement, SBC and SBC Sub
acquired beneficial ownership of 50,448,283 shares of Class A Common Stock.  The
transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement and the Strategic
Agreement are summarized as follows:

       On November 19, 1999, Prodigy and Prodigy Sub formed the Operating
Partnership, a new limited partnership of which Prodigy is the sole general
partner. At the Closing, Prodigy contributed substantially all of its operating
assets and transferred its employees to the Operating Partnership. At the
Closing, SBC Sub contributed the SBC Contributed Assets to the Operating
Partnership in exchange for 51,843,631 Units of Operating Partnership, which is
equal to approximately 42.6% of the total number of Units in the Operating
Partnership issued and outstanding immediately following the issuance to SBC
Sub. Prodigy retained an approximate 57.4% interest in the Operating
Partnership. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement,
for so long as SBC Sub's Book Capital Account (as defined in the Amended and
Restated Limited Parnership Agreement) is less than its Imputed Capital Account
(as defined in the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement), SBC Sub
has the right to exchange its Units in the Operating Partnership for a lesser
number of shares of Class A Common Stock. Prior to certain distributions by the

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

Operating Partnership, certain gains will be allocated, first, to the extent
necessary to cause SBC Sub's Book Capital Account (as defined in the Amended and
Restated Limited Partnership Agreement) to equal its Imputed Capital Account (as
defined in the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement). As SBC Sub's
Book Capital Account (as defined in the Amended and Restated Limited
Partnership Agreement) is increased as a result of any such allocation of gains,
SBC and SBC Sub will acquire beneficial ownership of additional shares of Class
A Common Stock. From and after such time that SBC Sub's Book Capital Account (as
defined in the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement) equals its
Imputed Capital Account (as defined in the Amended and Restated Limited
Partnership Agreement), SBC Sub will have the right to exchange its Units in the
Operating Partnership, on a one-for-one basis, into the same number of shares of
Class A Common Stock. As of the Closing Date, SBC Sub could exchange its
51,843,631 Units into 50,448,282 shares of Class A Common Stock.

       At the Closing, Prodigy also issued to SBC Sub one share of Class B
Common Stock in consideration of $100. Class B Common Stock will not be listed
on the Nasdaq National Market or any other exchange.  Shares of Class B Common
Stock will be convertible at any time, on a one-for-one basis, into the same
number of shares of Class A Common Stock. When transferred by SBC Sub to any
person or entity not affiliated with SBC, Class B Common Stock will
automatically convert into Class A Common Stock. Pursuant to the Amended and
Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of Operating Partnership, SBC Sub is
permitted to transfer its Units to any person as long as such person agrees to
be bound by the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement.

       Prodigy's current stockholders exchanged their Common Stock for Class A
Common Stock.  Prodigy is now a holding company whose sole assets consist of
rights under certain stock-related agreements and plans and the approximate
57.4% interest in the Operating Partnership and whose sole business is to act as
the sole General Partner of the Operating Partnership.

       Holders of Prodigy's Class A Common Stock generally have rights identical
to holders of Prodigy's Class B Common Stock, except that each holder of Class A
Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share and SBC Sub, the holder of Class
B Common Stock, is entitled to one vote for each share of Class B Common Stock
held by it and one vote for each Unit held by it.  Pursuant to Prodigy's
Restated Certificate of Incorporation, SBC has the right to directly elect three
of Prodigy's nine directors. Otherwise, holders of Class A Common Stock and
Class B Common Stock generally will vote together as a single class on all
matters (including the election of the directors who are not elected directly by
SBC) presented to the stockholders for their vote or approval except as
otherwise required by applicable Delaware law or the Restated Certificate of
Incorporation. Pursuant to Prodigy's Restated Certificate of Incorporation, SBC,
by a vote of at least 75% of the Class B Common Stock, may, without a vote of
the holders of the Class A Common Stock, approve a merger of Operating
Partnership into Prodigy.

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

       Prodigy has established an Executive Steering Committee (as defined in
the Restated Certificate of Incorporation) of the board of directors of Prodigy.
The Executive Steering Committee will consist of four members, two of whom will
be selected by the Class B Directors (as defined in the Restated Certificate of
Incorporation) elected by SBC and two of whom will be selected by the Class A
Directors (as defined in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation) designated
by Telmex and Carso. The purpose of the Executive Steering Committee is to
evaluate all major corporate actions of Prodigy and Operating Partnership, such
as mergers, acquisitions, capital expenditures or borrowings in excess of $20
million (each a "Major Action"). Each Major Action will require the approval of
the Executive Steering Committee prior to being submitted for the approval of
the board of directors of Prodigy. The Restated Certificate of Incorporation
also provides that major events, including the Major Actions, require the
approval of the full board of directors of Prodigy.

       In connection with these transactions, Prodigy, Prodigy Sub and SBC Sub
entered into an Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, pursuant to
which Prodigy is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership.  As sole
general partner of the Operating Partnership, Prodigy has unilateral control
over all of the affairs and decision making of the Operating Partnership
(subject to the approval of SBC Sub, as limited partner, as to certain matters).
As such, Prodigy, through the Executive Steering Committee, the board of
directors of Prodigy and Prodigy's officers, is responsible for nearly all
operational and administrative decisions of the Operating Partnership and the
day-to-day management of the Operating Partnership's business.  Prior to being
submitted to Prodigy's Board, all Major Actions of the Operating Partnership
must be unanimously approved by the Executive Steering Committee.  Furthermore,
Prodigy cannot be removed as the sole General Partner of Operating Partnership
without its approval, nor can Operating Partnership be dissolved without
Prodigy's approval (subject to certain exceptions described in the Amended and
Restated Limited Partnership Agreement).

       Upon issuance of the Units and the Class B Common Stock to SBC Sub at the
Closing, the number of Units owned by Prodigy equals the number of shares of
outstanding Common Stock (as defined in the Restated Certificate of
Incorporation) of Prodigy.  After the Closing, the number of Units owned by
Prodigy is intended to be at all times equal to the number of shares of
outstanding Common Stock (as defined in the Restated Certificate of
Incorporation) of Prodigy.  The net cash proceeds received by Prodigy from any
issuance of shares of Common Stock (as defined in the Restated Certificate of
Incorporation), including with regard to the exercise of options warrants and
other rights, shall be concurrently transferred to the Operating Partnership in
exchange for Units equal in number to such number of shares of Common Stock (as
defined in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation) issued by Prodigy.

       Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, each of SBC and SBC Sub
have been granted registration rights in respect of shares of Class A Common
Stock issued or to be issued upon conversion of the share of Class B Common
Stock and/or upon the exchange of Units.

       The transactions outlined above were submitted for approval, and were
approved, by Prodigy's stockholders on May 24, 2000, and the Closing took place
on May 31, 2000.  SBC Sub has the right to "collapse" the structure described
above or exchange its Units in the Operating Partnership for shares of Class A
Common Stock, in order to hold a direct equity interest in Prodigy.

       Depending upon their evaluation of the Company's business and prospects,
SBC and SBC Sub may, from time to time, directly or indirectly, purchase
additional shares of Class A Common Stock and may, from time to time, directly
or indirectly, dispose of all or a portion of the shares of Class A Common Stock
held by them.  Any such additional purchases or sales of the shares of Class A
Common Stock may be effected through open market purchases, one or more tender
offers, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. However, there can be
no assurance that SBC and/or SBC Sub will effect any such purchases or sales.

       SBC views its relationship with Prodigy as strategic and intends to
actively support the business strategies developed by the Prodigy Board of
Directors and to bring to Prodigy's attention business transactions, including
extraordinary corporate transactions, that SBC believes may be of interest to
Prodigy. These transactions could involve potential changes in the board of
directors, management, capitalization, dividend policy, business or corporate
structure, charter, by-laws or instruments corresponding thereto of Prodigy and
other matters that could arise in material business transactions. Employees of
SBC may be involved in supporting Prodigy in the implementation of such
transactions.

       Pursuant to Section 5.1(h) of the Investment Agreement, Prodigy has
agreed to adopt a Stockholder Protection Rights Agreement in a form to be agreed
upon between Prodigy and SBC as set forth more fully in the Investment
Agreement.

       The foregoing descriptions of the Voting Agreement, the Carso Proxy, the
Telmex Proxy, the Investment Agreement, the Amended and Restated Limited
Partnership Agreement, the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Amended
and Restated By-Laws, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Strategic
Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the respective
agreements and documents, as the case may be, copies or forms of which were
filed with the Original 13D and are specifically incorporated herein by
reference in response to this Item 4.

       Except as set forth in this Statement, the Voting Agreement, the Carso
Proxy, the Telmex Proxy, the Investment Agreement, the Amended and Restated
Limited Partnership Agreement, the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the
Amended and Restated By-Laws, the Registration Rights Agreement and the
Strategic Agreement, none of SBC or SBC Sub or, to the best of SBC's or SBC
Sub's knowledge, any of the individuals named in Exhibit A hereto, has any plans
or proposals which relate to or which would result in or relate to any of the
actions specified in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5.   Interests in Securities of the Issuer.
          -------------------------------------

          (a) As a result of SBC Sub's rights to exchange its Units into
50,448,282 shares of Class A Common Stock and to convert its Class B Common
Stock into one share of Class A Common Stock, SBC and SBC Sub beneficially own
50,448,283 shares of Class A Common Stock, which represents, based on the
information received by Prodigy in connection with the Closing, approximately
41.95% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock assuming that the
50,448,282 shares of Class A Common Stock into which SBC Sub could exchange its
Units and the one share of Class A Common Stock into which SBC Sub could convert

Slim"), Carso and Telmex, Mr. Slim, a member of the Board of Directors of SBC,
and members of his immediate family beneficially own 41,413,111 shares of Common
Stock of Prodigy, which as a result of the reclassification of Common Stock into
Class A Common Stock as described in Item 4 above, would now be 40,809,411
shares of Class A Common Stock, which represents, based on the information
received by Prodigy in connection with the Closing, approximately 59.3% of the
outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock of Prodigy or 34.4% of the
outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock of Prodigy assuming that the
50,448,282 shares of Class A Common Stock into which SBC Sub could exchange its
Units and the one share of Class A Common Stock into which SBC Sub could convert
its Class B Common Stock are outstanding.

          The information contained above in this Item 5(a) and below in Item

any implication under any circumstances, that there have been no events, or that
there is no other information, including events or information not yet publicly
disclosed by Mr. Slim, which may affect the accuracy or completeness of such
information.

          Except as set forth in this Item 5, none of SBC or SBC Sub or, to the
best of SBC's or SBC Sub's knowledge, any of the individuals named in Exhibit A
hereto beneficially owns any shares of Class A Common Stock.

          (b) SBC and SBC Sub have the shared power to vote and to dispose of
50,448,283 shares of Class A Common Stock.  For a description of the information
required by Item 2 with respect to SBC Sub, see "Item 2. Identity and
Background" above.

          According to the Stockholders' 13D, Mr. Slim, who filed on behalf of
himself and members of his immediate family, has shared power to vote and shared
power to dispose of 41,413,111 shares of Common Stock of Prodigy, which as a
result of the reclassification of Common Stock into Class A Common Stock as
described in Item 4 above, would now be 41,413,111 shares of Class A Common
Stock.
