REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Plan Administrator of the

AT&T Puerto Rico Retirement Savings Plan

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the AT&T Puerto Rico Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Plan's internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the 2008 Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits has been restated to correct a misstatement.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2009, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

AT&T PUERTO RICO RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in Thousands)

Plan Description – The AT&T Puerto Rico Retirement Savings Plan (Plan) is a defined contribution plan originally established by AT&T Inc. (AT&T or the Company) to provide a convenient way for eligible employees of its Puerto Rico subsidiary, CCPR Services Inc., and certain affiliates, to save on a regular and long-term basis. The following description of the Plan provides only general information. The Plan has detailed provisions covering participant eligibility, participant allotments from pay, participant withdrawals, participant loans, employer contributions and related vesting of contributions and Plan expenses. The Plan text and prospectus include complete descriptions of these and other Plan provisions. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA).

The Plan was amended effective December 31, 2008, and non-collectively bargained participants were transferred from the Plan to AT&T Puerto Rico Savings Plan (ASP-PR). Participant account balances of affected participants have been reflected as a payable to the ASP-PR on the statement of net assets available for benefits as these participant accounts physically transferred in January 2009.

Prior to January 1, 2009, the Plan held its own investments in a single plan trust. The custodian of the single plan trust was State Street Bank and Trust Company (State Street), with Banco Popular de Puerto Rico serving as trustee of the Plan. On January 1, 2009 the Plan assets held in the single plan trust were transferred to the AT&T Savings Plan Master Trust (AT&T Master Trust), and the custodian was changed to The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (BNY Mellon), with Eurobank Puerto Rico serving as local trustee. The AT&T Master Trust participates in the AT&T Savings Group Investment Trust (Group Trust). BNY Mellon serves as trustee for both AT&T Master Trust and the Group Trust. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (Fidelity) serves as recordkeeper for the Plan.

In connection with the various changes described in the paragraph above, participant fund investment options were also changed. Effective January 1, 2009, participants could invest their contributions in one or more of 11 funds in 1% increments:

· AT&T Total Return Bond Fund*	· Small and Mid-Sized U.S. Stock Index Fund**
· AT&T U.S. Stock Fund*	· International Stock Index Fund**
· AT&T International Stock Fund*	· Large Cap U.S. Stock Index Fund**
· AT&T Stable Value Fund*	· AT&T Shares Fund**
· AT&T Age-Based Asset Allocation Funds (based on retirement date)**	· Fidelity BrokerageLink®**
· Total U.S. Stock Market Index Fund**

* Investment fund option of the Group Trust.

** Investment fund option of the AT&T Master Trust.

Participants contribute to the Plan on a pre-tax basis through payroll allotments. The Company contributes to the Plan by matching the participants' contributions based on the provisions of the Plan. Company matching contributions are made solely in the form of shares of AT&T’s common stock. Vested Company contributions made to the Plan that are invested in AT&T common shares can be immediately diversified into any of the fund options above.

Dividends on shares in the AT&T Shares Fund can either be reinvested in the AT&T Shares Fund on a quarterly basis, or paid into a separate fund known as a Dividend Fund Account (DFA) for distribution at the end of the year. Interest earned on dividends held in the DFA purchases additional units of the AT&T Shares Fund in the participant’s account. During 2009, Plan participants elected to receive $35 in dividend distributions. This amount is included in distributions on the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.

Each participant is entitled to exercise voting rights attributable to the shares allocated to their account and is notified by the Company prior to the time that such rights may be exercised. The trustee is not permitted to vote any allocated shares for which instructions have not been given by a participant. The trustee votes any unallocated shares in the same proportion as those shares that were allocated, unless the Committee directs the trustee otherwise. Participants have the same voting rights in the event of a tender or exchange offer.

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, AT&T has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event that the Plan is terminated, subject to the conditions set forth by ERISA, the account balances of all participants shall be 100% vested.

Administrative Expenses All expenses incident to the administration of the Plan will be paid from the Plan, Group Trust or AT&T Master Trust except to the extent such expenses are paid by the Company. To the extent that expenses incident to the administration of the Plan are paid from the Plan, Group Trust, or AT&T Master Trust, the plan administrator (as defined by the Plan) will determine which expenses are to be charged to and paid from participant’s individual accounts, which expenses are to be charged to and paid from the accounts of all participants (and how they are to be allocated among such accounts), and which expenses are to be charged to and paid from the accounts of one or more identified groups of participants (and how they are to be allocated among such accounts).

Accounting Policies – The accompanying financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), which require management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Distributions are recorded when paid.

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

Plan management has determined that the Plan’s previously issued financial statements for December 31, 2008 and for year then ended, contained a misstatement with respect to the Transfer to the AT&T Puerto Rico Savings Plan. The investment in the Participant Loans was overstated by the amount of transfers to the AT&T Puerto Rico Savings Plan, which resulted in an overstatement of the Plan’s Net Assets Available for Benefits as of December 31, 2008. The table below illustrates the impact by financial statement line item:

Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits as of December 31, 2008	As Reported		Adjustment			Restated

Investments at fair value:
Participant Loans	$	1,083	$	(604	)	$	479
Net assets reflecting investments at fair value		4,591		(604	)		3,987
Net assets available for benefits		4,591		(604	)		3,987

Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008	As Reported		Adjustment			Restated

Transfer to AT&T Puerto Rico Savings Plan	$	8,073	$	604		$	8,677
Net assets available for benefits, December 31, 2008		4,591		(604	)		3,987

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition Investments are stated at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. See Note 3 for discussion of fair value measurements. Investments in securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the year. If no sale was reported on that date, they are valued at the last reported bid price. Shares of registered investment companies are valued based on quoted market prices, which represent the net asset value of shares held at year-end. Over-the-counter securities and government obligations are valued at the bid price or the average of the bid and asked price on the last business day of the year from published sources where available and, if not available, from other sources considered reliable.

Common/collective trust funds are valued at redemption values that represent the net asset values of units held at year-end in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-12, “Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value Per Share (or Its Equivalent)” as discussed below. Publicly traded partnerships are valued using trades on a national securities exchange on the last reported sales price on the last business day of the year. Participant loans are reported at cost, which approximates fair value.

Under GAAP, investment contracts held by a defined contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. The Group Trust invests in fully benefit-responsive guaranteed investment contracts (GICs) and synthetic investment contracts (Synthetic GICs). GICs are valued at fair value by discounting the related cash flows based on current yields of similar instruments with comparable durations considering the credit-worthiness of the issuer. The underlying investments of the Synthetic GICs are owned by the Group Trust and are comprised of common/collective trust funds, corporate bonds and notes, registered investment companies and government securities and are also valued as described above. The fair value of the wrapper contracts for the Synthetic GICs is determined using the market approach discounting methodology that incorporates the difference between current market level rates for contract level wrap fees and the wrap fee being charged. The difference is calculated as a dollar value and discounted by the prevailing interpolated swap rate as of period end. The contract value of the fully benefit-responsive investment contracts represents contributions plus earnings, less participant withdrawals and administrative expenses.

Purchases and sales of securities are reflected as of the trade date. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Interest earned on investments is recognized on the accrual basis.

Recent Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards Codification In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued standards that established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC or Codification) as the source of authoritative GAAP by the FASB for nongovernmental entities. The ASC supersedes all non-SEC accounting and reporting standards that existed at the ASC’s effective date. The FASB uses ASUs to amend the ASC. The Plan’s financial statements refer to ASUs throughout the footnotes where deemed relevant and make general references to pre-Codification standards. These standards were effective for periods ending after September 15, 2009 (i.e., year ended December 31, 2009, for the Plan). There was no impact to the Plan’s financial statements in the adoption of these standards, except for updating the appropriate references to the guidance that was codified in these standards.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures In April 2009, ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820), was amended to provide additional guidance on estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased in relation to normal market activity for the asset or liability. This amendment (ASC 820-10-65) also provides additional guidance on circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly and on defining major categories of debt and equity securities in meeting the disclosure requirements of ASC 820. Per ASC 820-10-65, this amendment is effective for reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009 (i.e., year ended December 31, 2009, for the Plan), and the Plan has adopted this amendment. Adoption of ASC 820-10-65 did not have a material effect on the Plan’s net assets available for benefits or its changes in net assets available for benefits.

In September 2009, the FASB issued “Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)” (ASU 2009-12), which provides guidance for an investor on using the net asset value (NAV) per share provided by an investee to estimate the fair value of an alternative investment when the fair value for the primary investment is not readily determinable. It affects certain investments that are required or permitted by GAAP to be measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. It requires disclosures by major category of investment about certain attributes (e.g., applicable redemption restrictions, unfunded commitments to the issuer of the investments, and the investment strategies of that issuer). ASU 2009-12 was effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009 (i.e., the year ended December 31, 2009, for the Plan). See Note 4 for the impact of the Plan’s adoption of ASU 2009-12. Adoption of ASU 2009-12 did not have a material effect on the Plan’s net assets available for benefits or its changes in net assets available for benefits.

In January 2010, the FASB issued “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (ASU 2010-06), which requires new disclosures and reasons for transfers of financial assets and liabilities between Levels 1, 2 and 3. ASU 2010-06 also clarifies that fair value measurement disclosures are required for each class of financial asset and liability, and those disclosures should include a discussion of inputs and valuation techniques. It further clarifies that the reconciliation of Level 3 measurements should separately present purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements instead of netting these changes. With respect to matters other than Level 3 measurements, ASU 2010-06 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2009 (i.e., the year ending December 31, 2010, for the Plan). New guidance related to Level 3 measurements is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010 (i.e., the year ending December 31, 2011, for the Plan). The Plan management is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2010-06 on the Plan’s financial statements.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosures In March 2008, the FASB amended the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. This guidance was later codified in ASC 815-10-50. The new guidance requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities to improve the transparency of financial reporting. The Plan adopted the new guidance as of January 1, 2009, which increased the Plan’s disclosures (see Note 4) but did not have an impact on the Plan’s statement of net assets available for benefits or statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.

Fair Value Measurements – ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Plan has the ability to access.

Level 2	Inputs to the valuation methodology include: · Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; · Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; · Inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable for the asset or liability; · Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

	If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level with the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The valuation methodologies described in Note 2 may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while Plan management believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2009 and 2008.

The only investment held by the Plan at (outside of the Group Trust and AT&T Master Trust) is participant loans, and is classified as a Level 3 investment in the fair value hierarchy. There are no realized or unrealized gains or losses on participant loans. The change of $235 from the December 31, 2008 balance consists solely of net issuances and settlements. See Note 4 for fair value hierarchy for the Group Trust’s and AT&T Master Trust’s investments

AT&T Savings Plan Master Trust Investments

The AT&T Master Trust was established to manage assets of pooled investment options among various AT&T sponsored employee benefit plans. The Plan began participating in the AT&T Master Trust on January 1, 2009.

Each participating plan’s interest in the investment fund options (i.e., separate accounts) of the AT&T Master Trust is based on account balances of the participants and their elected investment fund options. The AT&T Master Trust assets are allocated among the participating plans by assigning to each plan those transactions (primarily contributions, benefit payments, and plan-specific expenses) that can be specifically identified and by allocating among all plans, in proportion to the fair value of the assets assigned to each plan, income and expenses resulting from the collective investment of the assets of the AT&T Master Trust.

Investment income and administrative expenses related to the AT&T Master Trust are allocated to the individual plans on a daily basis based on each participant’s account balance within each investment fund option.

The participating plans and ownership percentages of the AT&T Master Trust are listed below:

	December 31,

1This category includes 11 common/collective trust funds also known as Aged-Based Asset Allocation Funds which are well diversified portfolios that adjust the mix of the various underlying investments over time. The change in allocation of investments is designed to move from a more aggressive investment strategy to a more conservative strategy as the participants come closer to retirement. The year associated with the fund identification denotes the projected year of retirement of the participant selecting the fund. There are currently no redemption restrictions on these investments. The fair values of the investments in this category have been estimated using the net asset value per share.

AT&T Savings Group Investment Trust Investments

AT&T established the Group Trust to manage assets of pooled investment options among various AT&T sponsored employee benefit plans. The Plan began participating in the Group Trust on January 1, 2009.

Each participating plan’s interest in the investment fund options (i.e., separate accounts) of the Group Trust is based on account balances of the participants and their elected investment fund options. The Group Trust assets are allocated among the participating plans by assigning to each plan those transactions (primarily contributions, benefit payments, and plan-specific expenses) that can be specifically identified and by allocating among all plans, in proportion to the fair value of the assets assigned to each plan, income and expenses resulting from the collective investment of the assets of the Group Trust.

Investment income and administrative expenses related to the Group Trust are allocated to the individual plans on a daily basis based on each participant’s account balance within each investment fund option.

1The objective of the common/collective trust funds held in the AT&T U.S. Stock Fund is to deliver high quality active exposure to the large-capitalization U.S. equity market with close tracking of the index, high quality and cost-effective index-based solution to institutional investors and to provide for liquidity. These common/collective trust funds have redemption restrictions limited to daily and monthly settlement. All the common/collective trust funds are invested in either Large Cap or Mid-Cap equities, with the majority being Large Cap. The fair value of the investment in this category has been estimated using the net asset value per share.

2The objective of the common/collective trust fund held in the AT&T International Stock Fund is to provide diversified fund that seeks to provide returns in excess of the international markets as represented by the ACWI ex U.S. Index. Two of the common/collective trust funds have redemption restrictions limited to weekly, semi-monthly or monthly. All but one of these funds are invested in developed countries (i.e. developed: Europe, Japan, UK, Australia, etc.) The fair value of the investment in this category has been estimated using the net asset value per share.

3There are three collateral pools in which the Group Trust invests: 1) The Pooled Employee ASL Short Term Fund, 2) The Term Assets Liquidating Trust and 3) The ASL Short Term Fund - SIGMA (Liquidating Fund). The Pooled Employee ASL Short Term Fund consists of liquid securities that can be redeemed on a one-day notice for return to borrows immediately upon recall of loaned securities. There is $520,143 invested in this fund as of December 31, 2009. The Term Assets Liquidating Trust consists of non-liquid securities that are currently performing but are intended to be held until maturity. Redemptions from this Trust are currently prohibited; however, the Plan could exit this Trust, receive a proportionate share of the securities, and then sell the assets. It is expected that over 93% of this pool will mature within 360 days. There is $267,282 invested in this fund as of December 31, 2009. The ASL Short Term Fund - SIGMA (Liquidating Fund) consists of assets in default currently valued at $526. Lending income is being reserved to offset the deficiency in this Fund. Redemptions from this Fund are currently prohibited; however, the Plan could exit this Fund, receive a proportionate share of the securities, and then sell the assets. There is $3,454 invested in non-cash investments, such as U.S. Government debt.

Derivative Financial Instruments

In the normal course of operations, Group Trust assets held in the AT&T Stable Value Fund (Stable Value Fund) are invested in certain derivative financial instruments (futures and foreign currency forward contracts). These instruments involve, in varying degrees, elements of credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the statements of net assets available for benefits. The contract or notional amounts disclosed provide a measure of the Group Trust’s involvement in such instruments but are not indicative of potential loss. The intent is to use these financial instruments as economic hedges to manage market risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with the Fund’s investment assets. The Group Trust’s fiduciaries do not anticipate any material adverse effect on the Group Trust’s net assets resulting from its involvement in these instruments.

Futures Contracts

The primary risk managed by the Group Trust using future contracts is the price risk associated with certain of the Plan’s investments. On behalf of the AT&T Master Trust investment managers for the Group Trust entered into various futures contracts to economically hedge investments in domestic securities. These contracts, which are considered derivatives under ASC 815 are agreements between two parties to buy or sell a security or financial interest at a set price on a future date and are standardized and exchange-traded. Upon entering into such a contract on behalf of the AT&T Master Trust, the investment manager is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash or securities equal to the minimum “initial margin” requirements of the exchange on which the contract is traded. Pursuant to the contract, the investment manager agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded on a daily basis by the trustee as a realized gain or loss equal to the difference in the value of the contract between daily closing prices. Upon entering into such contracts, the Group Trust bears the risk of interest or exchange rates or securities prices moving unexpectedly, in which case, the Group Trust may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize a loss. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Group Trust since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default. The investments in the Group Trust are subject to equity price risk and interest rate risk, in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The U.S. interest rate futures held in the portfolio as of December 31, 2009, were used primarily to hedge and manage the duration risk of the portfolio.

The fair value of the open futures contracts is separately disclosed in the detail of the Group Trust investments presented above and is included in the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits to the extent of the Plan’s ownership in the Group Trust. Similarly, the gains and losses on open future contracts are reflected in the net appreciation/depreciation in the fair value of the Group Trust’s investments and are included in the Plan’s Net Income from Investment in the AT&T Savings Plan Master Trust to the extent of the Plan’s ownership.

Foreign Currency Contracts

The primary risks managed by the Plan using foreign currency forward contracts is the foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with the Plan’s investments denominated in foreign currencies. Investment managers for the Group Trust entered into forward foreign currency contracts, which are agreements to exchange foreign currencies at a specified future date at a specified rate, the terms of which are not standardized on an exchange. These contracts are intended to minimize the impact of foreign currencies. Although in some cases, forward foreign currency contracts are used to express a view on the direction of a particular currency. Risk arises both from the possible inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of the contracts (credit risk) and from movement in foreign currency exchange rates (market risk). Forward contracts are entered into with major banks to minimize credit risk, and accordingly, no credit reserve has been established against these amounts.

The contracts are recorded at fair value on the date the contract is entered into, which is typically zero. The net realized and unrealized gains or losses are included in the net appreciation/depreciation in the fair value of investments for the Group Trust, which is then allocated to the AT&T Master Trust and is included in the net income from investment in the AT&T Master Trust on the Plan’s statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.

At December 31, 2009, the contracts held by the Group Trust were:


	Notional Value		Fair Value			Amount of Gain/(Loss) recognized
	2009		2009			2009
Derivative Assets:	$	118,767	$	(835	)	$	(835	)
Derivative Liabilities:	$	118,767	$	846		$	846

Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts

The Stable Value Fund consists of fully benefit-responsive investment contracts with various financial institutions and insurance companies that promise to repay principal plus accrued income at contract maturity, subject to the creditworthiness of the issuer. Interest crediting rates are generally established when the contract is purchased and may be periodically reset.

AT&T PUERTO RICO RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

(Dollars in Thousands)

The Stable Value Fund invests in GICs and Synthetic GICs. Synthetic GICs are also referred to as wrapper contracts. The assets supporting the Synthetic GICs are owned by the Group Trust and generally consist of high quality fixed income securities. At December 31, 2009, the underlying net assets allocated to the AT&T Master Trust had a fair value of $5,551,269 and a contract value of $5,446,265. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the average yield earned on these contracts was 3.05%, and, the average yield earned by the AT&T Master Trust and the Plan adjusted to reflect actual interest rate credited to participants, was 3.43%. No valuation reserves were recorded to adjust contract amounts as of December 31, 2009.

A bank or insurance company issues a wrapper contract that provides preservation of principal, maintains a stable interest rate and provides daily liquidity at contract value for participant directed transactions, in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. Wrapper contracts amortize the realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying fixed income investments through adjustments to the future interest crediting rate. The issuer of the wrapper contract provides assurance that the adjustments to the interest crediting rate do not result in a future interest crediting rate that is less than zero, which would result in a loss of principal or accrued interest. The fair value of the wrapper contracts was $9,724 at December 31, 2009.

Wrapper contracts’ interest crediting rates are typically reset on a monthly or quarterly basis and are based on the characteristics of the underlying fixed income securities. Other key factors that influence the interest crediting rates are market interest rates, the amount and timing of participant transactions into and out of the wrapper contract, investment returns on the underlying fixed income securities and the duration of those investments. All wrapper contracts provide for minimum interest crediting rate of zero percent. In the event that the interest crediting rate should fall to zero and the requirements of the wrapper contract are satisfied, the wrapper issuer will pay the Group Trust the shortfall needed to maintain the rate at zero, ensuring participants’ principal and accrued interest is protected.

Changes in market interest rates can affect the yield to maturity and the market value of the underlying investment, and can have a material impact on the wrapper contract’s interest crediting rate. Additionally, participant withdrawals and transfers from the Stable Value Fund are paid at contract value but funded through the market value liquidation of the underlying investments, which also impacts the interest crediting rate. The resulting gains and losses in the market value of the underlying investments relative to the wrapper contract value are represented on the Plan’s statement of net assets available for benefits as the “Adjustment from fair value to contract value for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts,” and the amount allocated to the AT&T Master Trust totaled $(105,004) at December 31, 2009, of which $(18) was allocated to the Plan. If this adjustment is positive, it indicates that the wrapper contract value is greater than the market value of the underlying investments and the embedded market value losses will be amortized in the future through a lower interest crediting rate. If the adjustment is negative, the embedded market gains would cause the future interest crediting rate to be higher.

AT&T PUERTO RICO RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

In certain circumstances, the amount withdrawn from the wrapper contract could be payable at fair value rather than at contract value. These events include termination of the Plan, a material adverse change to the provisions of the Plan, if AT&T elects to withdraw from a wrapper contract in order to switch to a different investment provider or, in the event of a spin-off or sale of a division, if the terms of the successor plan do not meet the contract issuers’ underwriting criteria for issuance of a clone wrapper contract. Events that would permit a wrapper contract issuer to terminate a wrapper contract upon short notice include the Plan’s loss of its qualified status, un-cured material breaches of responsibilities or material and adverse changes to the provisions of the Plan. The Company does not believe any of the events are probable of occurring in the foreseeable future.

Securities Lending

The Group Trust is authorized to engage in the lending of certain assets. Securities lending is an investment management enhancement that utilizes the existing securities of the Group Trust to earn additional income. Securities lending involves the loaning of securities to a selected group of approved banks and broker-dealers. In return for the loaned securities, the trustee, prior to or simultaneous with delivery of the loaned securities to the borrower, receives collateral in the form of cash or U.S. Government securities as a safeguard against possible default of any borrower on the return of the loan. Each loan is initially collateralized, in the case of: (a) loaned securities denominated in U.S. dollars or whose primary trading market is located in the U.S. to the extent of 102% of the market value of the loaned securities, or (b) loaned securities not denominated in U.S. dollars or whose primary trading market is not located in the U.S. to the extent of 105% of the market value of the loaned securities. The collateral is marked to market on a daily basis.

The fair value of securities on loan was $786,644 and value of collateral held was $791,405 at December 31, 2009. The reported collateral at December 31, 2009 includes noncash holdings of $3,454. The collateral is invested in common/collective trust funds (classified as Level 2). Income earned on securities lending is used to offset administrative expenses and was $7,180 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Investment Risk

Investments held by the Group Trust, and AT&T Master Trust are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investments could occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits. Plan participants’ accounts that are invested in the Company stock fund option are exposed to market risk in the event of a significant decline in the value of AT&T stock.

Additionally, the Group Trust invests in securities with contractual cash flows, such as asset backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and commercial mortgage-backed securities, including securities backed by subprime mortgage loans. The value, liquidity and related income of these securities are sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including real estate value, delinquencies or defaults, or both, and may be adversely affected by shifts in the market’s perception of the issuers and changes in interest rates.

Related Party Transactions – Plan assets are invested in AT&T stock either through the Group Trust or AT&T Master Trust. Because the Company is the plan sponsor, transactions involving the Company’s stock qualify as party-in-interest transactions. In addition, certain investments held by the Plan, Group Trust and AT&T Master Trust are managed by BNY Mellon and Fidelity as trustee and record keeper, respectively, as defined by various agreements. Therefore, these transactions and fees paid to these entities qualify as parties-in-interest transactions. All of these transactions are exempt from the prohibited transactions rules.

Tax Status –The Plan has received a determination letter from the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico’s Department of Treasury (Treasury) dated April 15, 1994, stating that the Plan is qualified under Sections 1165(a) and 1165(e) of the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code of 1994 (the Puerto Rico Code) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Subsequent to this determination by the Treasury, the Plan was amended and restated. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Puerto Rico Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan administrator has indicated that it will take the necessary steps, if any, to bring the Plan’s operations into compliance with the Puerto Rico Code. On December 17, 2009, a request for a new determination letter was filed with the Treasury with respect to the Plan, and that request is still pending.
