The Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting resolves on ordinary dividends for the fiscal year 2004 corresponding to SEK 5 per share. The Board of Directors further proposes that the record date for the dividend shall be Monday 16 May 2005.

The Nomination Group proposes that, until the end of the next Annual General Meeting, Marc J.A. Beuls, Vigo Carlund, Sven Hagströmer, Jan Loeber, John Shakeshaft and Cristina Stenbeck shall be re-elected Board members and that John Hepburn shall be elected as a new member of the Board of Directors. The Nomination Committee proposes that the Chairman of the Board of Directors shall be Sven Hagströmer. Furthermore, it is proposed that an Audit Committee and a Remuneration Committee be appointed among the members of the Board of Directors at the Constituent Board Meeting.

The Nomination Group proposes that the Meeting resolves that the fee of the members of the Board of Directors for the period until the end of the next Annual General Meeting shall be a total of SEK 3,350,000, whereof SEK 800,000 shall be allocated to the Chairman, SEK 400,000 to each of the other members of the Board of Directors respectively and a total of SEK 150,000 be allocated for the work of the members within the committees of the Board of Directors.

The above proposal is supported by shareholders representing more than 50 percent of the votes in the company including inter alia AMF Pension, Emesco AB, Fjärde AP-fonden, Investment AB Kinnevik, Nordea Fonder, SEB Fonder and SEB Trygg Liv.

The Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting approves the following procedure for the Nomination Group for the election of members of the Board of Directors. The work of preparing a proposal of members to the Board of Directors for the Annual General Meeting of 2006 shall be executed by a Nomination Group. The Nomination Group will be formed during the autumn of 2005, in consultation with at least three of the major shareholders and Cristina Stenbeck will act as convenor of the Group. The composition of the Group will be communicated in the interim report for the third quarter of 2005.

SPLIT AND REDEMPTION OF SHARES (item 14)

In order to execute the proposed redemption procedure, the Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting shall resolve on amendment of the Articles of Association, reduction of the share capital, new issue of Class C shares and reduction of the share capital through redemption of Class C shares in accordance with the below. All decisions are proposed to be contingent upon each other.

Amendment to the Articles of Association for the execution of share split (item 14 a)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting resolves to amend the Articles of Association to the effect that the provision in section 4 is changed so that the par value per share is changed from SEK 5 to SEK 1.25. This means a split of shares, whereby each share (irrespective of class) is divided into four shares of which one of the shares will be a so-called redemption share. The Board of Directors proposes that the record day for the share split shall be Monday 23 May 2005.

Amendment of the Articles of Association and adoption of a new class of shares (item 14 b)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting resolves to amend the Articles of Association to the effect that a new class of shares is introduced, Class C shares, which carry one vote per share. Class C shares shall not entitle to dividends. The customary provision on, respectively, primary and subsidiary preferential right at cash issue shall apply also for Class C shares, which, however, shall not entitle to participation in a bonus issue of shares. Upon the Board of Directors or the companys request, the Class C shares shall be redeemable and, upon the liquidation of the company, entitle the holder to a limited right to assets equal to the par value of the share, annualized by an interest rate provided in the Articles of Association. Upon redemption, the Class C share shall entitle the holder to payment equal to the par value annualized by an interest rate provided in the Articles of Association.

Reduction of the share capital by redemption of shares (item 14 c)

In order to execute a mandatory redemption procedure for all shareholders, the Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting resolves to reduce the companys share capital by SEK 184,450,218.75 by redemption of a total of 147,560,175 shares, each at a par value SEK 1.25, of which 15,516,663 are Class A shares and 132,043,512 are Class B shares. The redemption amount per share, irrespective of class, shall be SEK 10. The Board of Directors proposes that trading in so-called redemption shares shall take place from 24 May 2005 up to and including 10 June 2005. Furthermore, the Board of Directors proposes that the record date for redemption shall be 17 June 2005. The redemption payment is expected to be executed through VPC around 22 June 2005.

---

Directed share issue of Class C shares (item 14 d)

In order to achieve a time efficient redemption procedure without requiring a leave of court, the Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting resolves to increase the companys share capital by a maximum of SEK 184,450,218.75 by an issue of a maximum of 147,560,175 Class C shares, each at a par value of SEK 1.25. The new shares shall, with disapplication of the shareholders preferential rights, be subscribed for by a securities company at a subscription price equal to the par value of the share. The proposal is contingent upon registration of the amendments to the Articles of Association under sub-sections 14 a and b above.

Reduction of share capital by redemption of Class C shares and transfer of funds to the Companys reserves (item 14 e)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting resolves to reduce the share capital by SEK 184,450,218.75 by redemption of all Class C shares. The redemption shall be executed as soon as the issue of Class C shares has been registered. The objective of the reduction is restitution to the holders of Class C shares by an amount equal to the par value of SEK 1.25, annualized by the interest rate provided in the Articles of Association. In addition, it is proposed that the Meeting resolves that an amount equal to the amount of the reduction is transferred from the unrestricted equity to the companys reserves. The proposal is contingent upon registration of the amendments to the Articles of Association under sub-sections 14 a and b above.

The resolution set out items 14 a  e above must be supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of the shares and the numbers of votes represented at the Meeting. The Board of Directors complete text of the proposals will be kept available to the shareholders at the companys offices at Skeppsbron 18 in Stockholm as of 27 April 2005. Further information about the proposal on redemption procedure is found in the information brochure Redemption in Tele2 2005, which is made available on the companys website www.tele2.com. The shareholders who wish to obtain these documents may request them from the company, after which the material will be dispatched by mail or e-mail.
