FOLLOWING EXERCISE OF OPTION WARRANTS (SERIES A)
ROSH HA'AYIN, Israel, July 1, 2019 - Partner Communications Company Ltd. ("Partner" or "the Company") (NASDAQ and TASE: PTNR), a leading Israeli communications operator, announces that further to the immediate report of
the Company dated
May 1, 2019 (ref no. 19784645) ("the
Previous Report"), 385,000 option warrants of

The option warrants (Series A) were exercised at a discount rate of 0.566%, and therefore the weighted discount rate for
July 1, 2019 that applies to the Series G debentures is 0.078%.
In addition, notwithstanding the provisions of the paragraph that begins with the words
"Each holder of an option warrant…" in the Previous Report,
the Company wishes to inform that a holder of option warrants (Series A and B) that are exercisable for debentures (Series G) of
the Company ("the
Option Warrants") will not have to declare under the terms of the Option Warrants, that it is a resident of Israel. For the avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that the remainder of the holder's declaration, as stated in that paragraph, will remain unchanged.
