                      TELE2 SIGNS MVNO AGREEMENT IN FINLAND


New York and Stockholm - Thursday, June 12, 2003 - Tele2 AB ("Tele2", "the
Group") (Nasdaq Stock Market: TLTOA and TLTOB and Stockholmsborsen: TEL2A and
TEL2B), the leading alternative pan-European telecommunications company, today
announced that it has signed an MVNO agreement with Radiolinja Origo, the number
two GSM operator in Finland, with a market share of 30%.

May, will enable Tele2 to offer GSM mobile services in addition to the fixed
line telephony and Internet services it currently offers in Finland.

Lars-Johan Jarnheimer, CEO of Tele2 commented: "I am delighted that we have
struck this deal with Radiolinja Origo as it will enable us to increase our
service offering to our customers and to grow our subscriber base in Finland
without having to build our own infrastructure."

Tele2 AB, formed in 1993, is the leading alternative pan-European
telecommunications company offering fixed and mobile telephony, data network and
Internet services under the brands Tele2, Tango and Comviq to 17.7 million

integration, 3C Communications, providing integrated credit card processing, web
payment solutions and public payphones; Transac, providing billing and
transaction processing service; C(3), offering co-branded pre-paid calling cards
and Optimal Telecom, the price-guaranteed residential router device. The Group
