Stockholm - Tele2 AB, ("Tele2"), (Stockholm Stock Exchange: TEL2 A
and TEL2 B), Europe's leading alternative telecom operator, today
announced that it has signed an agreement for the sale of C3 to
Eutelia SPA in Italy.

In 2006 C3 had a revenue of MSEK 1 283 and an EBITDA of MSEK 40. The
transaction will have a positive impact on cash flow but translate
into a negative one time effect on Tele2's profit and loss statement
of about MSEK 300-400.

divestment is an additional step in our strategy to focus on our core
