The redemption of the Senior Notes is conditional upon the completion of the merger between Tele2 AB (publ) and Com Hem Holding AB (publ), being the date on which the Swedish Companies Registration Office registers such merger, and the Issuer having sufficient funds available to it to redeem the Senior Notes in full. Upon satisfaction of these conditions, the Issuer will redeem the Senior Notes in full plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any.
