FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASESeptember 29, 2004

TELE2 INCREASES ITS OFFER FOR SONG NETWORKS TO SEK 85 PER SHARE 
AND REDUCES CONDITIONS

Tele2 AB (Tele2), the leading alternative pan-European telecommunications company, today announces an increase of its cash offer to purchase all of the outstanding shares and convertible debentures (the
Offer) of Song Networks Holding AB (Song Networks). The Offer is increased from SEK 75 per share to SEK 85 per share, valuing Song Networks at SEK 4.95 billion. Further, the conditions for the Offer are substantially reduced.

Tele 2 currently owns, directly and indirectly, 9,460,000 shares, representing 18.0% of the votes and 17.0% of the capital in Song Networks. Tele2s holding after conversion of all convertible debentures amounts to
17.2% of the votes and 16.2% of the capital.

The acquisition enables Tele2 to expand its product offering to Nordic residential and business customers. The combination is expected to create annual synergies of over MSEK 300 when Song Networks has
  been integrated into Tele2, and will be earnings and cash flow accretive for the full year 2005. The Offer is made through Tele2 Sverige AB (Tele2 Sverige) a wholly owned Swedish subsidiary of Tele2.

Lars-Johan Jarnheimer, CEO of Tele2, commented: We are delighted to have secured 18% of the votes in Song Networks and are confident our revised bid will succeed. For us the rationale for this acquisition remains the
same and the only thing changing is our terms. If our competitor in this bidding process wishes to maintain a stake as a financial investor we would welcome this. We would be open to expanding our wholesale arrangements with them to accommodate some
of the plans they may have in the region and this of course would be incremental to our business case. As I said in our previous release it is important to emphasise that, because of expected synergies, Tele2 will run Song Networks much more
efficiently than any other party.

The strategic rationale behind the acquisition is compelling. The acquisition of Song Networks will benefit Tele2s operations by:

- Providing Tele2 with a Nordic ADSL platform covering 1.3 million households (corresponding to150 PoPs) in Sweden by the end of 2004, as well as an extensive ADSL network in
Denmark,Finland and Norway with 91, 179 and 112 PoPs respectively;



- Enabling access to 70-80% of all companies with over 10 employees in Sweden, Norway,Denmark and Finland;

- Making Tele2 the second largest provider of IP-VPN solutions in the Nordic region; and by

- Complementing Tele2s current residential product portfolio with a strong corporate portfolio in theNordic market, and enabling Tele2 to cross-sell a range of products, including ADSL
and IP-VPN.

Expected synergies and financial implications for Tele2

The acquisition of Song Networks is expected to generate synergies reaching over MSEK 300 on an annualised basis by the end of 2006. This will be achieved through:

- Co-ordinating marketing activities and managing only one brand;

- Rationalisation of overlapping functions and premises;

- Cross selling to the enlarged customer base; and

- Optimising the network architecture and infrastructure.

Approximately 50% percent of the synergies are estimated to materialise during 2005.

Implementation costs are estimated to be MSEK 100 in total for 2005 and 2006. The acquisition of Song Networks is estimated to give a positive contribution to earnings per share in Tele2 as from 2005. Tele2 expects that
Song Networks will be consolidated as from January 1, 2005, should the Offer be completed.

The Offer was made public through a press release on 22 September 2004. Tele2 now increases the Offer to SEK 85 in cash for each ordinary share and preference share in Song Networks. Tele2 also increases the consideration
offered for convertible debentures to a cash amount corresponding to SEK 85 per underlying share as if tendered convertible debentures were exercised in full, which is equivalent to 217.9% of the nominal value of the convertible debentures. The
Offer values the total outstanding share capital of Song Networks at approximately SEK 4.95 billion on a fully diluted basis.

No offer is made for the outstanding warrants to subscribe for new shares in Song Networks.

No commission will be charged for tendering of shares and convertible debentures.

- A bid premium of 18.9% based on the last price paid for Song Networks ordinary shares onSeptember 21, 2004, SEK 71.5, the last trading day prior to the Offer was initially announced
byTele2 on 22 September 2004;

- The Offer is 3.0% higher than TDC A/Ss (TDC) new cash offer (SEK 82.5 per share)announced on September 28, 2004;

- A bid premium of 78.9% based on the last price paid for the ordinary Song Networks shares on September 13, 2004, SEK 47.50, the last trading day prior to the initial offer made by TDC; a
bid premium of 87.4%, based on the volume-weighted average price of the ordinary shares during one month prior to TDCs announcement of its offer (August 13, 2004 to September 13,
2004); and a bid premium of 57.2% on the volume-weighted average price of the ordinary shares during one year prior to the announcement of TDCs first offer (September 15, 2003 to
September 13, 2004);

- A 117.9% increase on the nominal value of the convertible debentures issued by Song Networks.
