Swedish Prosecutor notifies Millicom that it has discontinued its preliminary investigation due to lack of jurisdiction


On 21 October 2015 Millicom issued a press release announcing that it had
voluntarily reported to law enforcement authorities in the United States and
Sweden potential improper payments made on behalf of the company’s joint venture
in Guatemala.

On 4 May 2016 Millicom received notification from the Swedish Public Prosecutor
that its preliminary investigation has been discontinued given that the alleged
crime was in its entirety committed abroad, that there is no evidence available
in Sweden, and that no Swedish citizen can be suspected of participation in the
alleged crime abroad.

Millicom continues to cooperate with law enforcement authorities in the United
States.
