The Board of Com Hem Holding AB (publ) today resolved to initiate an additional share buyback program for a total amount of up to SEK 300 million up until March 20, 2018.

1. Repurchases of shares are to be made on Nasdaq Stockholm and in accordance with Nasdaq Stockholm's Rule Book for Issuers and in accordance with MAR and the Safe Harbour Regulation.
2. Share repurchases can be made in the period from October 18, 2017 to March 20, 2018.

3. Repurchases of shares on Nasdaq Stockholm are to be made at a per-share price within the registered interval for the going rate at any given time, which denotes the interval between the highest and lowest selling price.
4. Shares for a total maximum amount of SEK 300 million may be repurchased.
5. A maximum of 15,446,429 shares may be repurchased. The Company's holding of its own shares may not at any time exceed 10 per cent of the outstanding shares in the Company.
