REGULATORY CHANGES IN COLOMBIA New York and Stockholm - December 13, 2007 - Millicom International Cellular S.A. (Nasdaq Stock Market: MICC and Stockholmsbörsen: MIC), the global telecommunications company, today commented on the initiatives announced by the Colombian Regulator last week. The interconnect rate has been reduced with immediate effect from approximately US 12 cents to 6 cents and, as part of the new regulations, the interconnection between operators will continue to be symmetric but charged on a per second basis. These changes will allow Tigo to improve the affordability of its services over time and the resulting price elasticity will be an important driver for future revenue growth. However, in the short term Tigo will see a negative effect on revenues and margins in Colombia as Tigo, the smallest of the three mobile operators, currently generates substantially more incoming than outgoing calls interconnecting with other operators. In the fourth quarter the impact will be limited but in 2008 revenue and margin in Colombia will be affected, although our target to achieve the Millicom Group average EBITDA margins in Colombia over time still remains unchanged. Marc Beuls, CEO of Millicom commented, "These changes in the regulatory environment in Colombia will allow Tigo to implement all 3 A's of its business model going forward, but we have to accept a short term impact on revenues and margins in Colombia as the price worth paying to achieve these longer term objectives in a market with great potential."
