This Amendment No. 14 to the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Schedule 14D-9”) amends and supplements the Schedule 14D-9, originally filed by iBasis, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 30, 2009, relating to the tender offer by KPN B.V., a private limited liability company organized under the laws of The Netherlands (“Purchaser”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Koninklijke KPN N.V., a public company incorporated under the laws of The Netherlands (“KPN”), pursuant to which Purchaser has offered to buy all outstanding Shares that it does not already own, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase dated July 28, 2009 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related letter of transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the “Offer”). The Offer is described in a Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement filed by KPN and Purchaser under cover of Schedule TO with the SEC on July 28, 2009, as amended. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 14D-9.

As previously disclosed, on October 5, 2009, Purchaser amended the Offer by, among other things, increasing the offer price to be paid from the original $1.55 per Share (the “Original Offer”) to $2.25 per Share (the “Revised Offer”).  The Revised Offer is subject to a number of conditions as set forth in the Schedule TO, as amended.

Item 2.    Identity and Background of Filing Person.

Item 2 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following new paragraph at the end of the section entitled “Tender Offer”:

“On October 20, 2009, Purchaser issued a press release announcing that Purchaser was extending the expiration date of the Revised Offer to 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Friday, November 20. On October 20, 2009, Purchaser and KPN also filed Amendment No. 6 to the Schedule TO, which amended and supplemented the Schedule TO in order to reflect the extension of the expiration date, among other things.”
