   entitled to receive a part of the Excess Amount in cash proportional to the number of
   SETs that such shareholder would have been granted but for such shareholder’s status
   as a shareholder ineligible to be granted SETs.
   The Excess Amount will be paid as soon as practicably possible after the closing of the
   Offering and will be credited through the facilities of Euroclear Nederland, Euroclear and
   Clearstream Luxembourg. Payments will be made in Euro only, without interest and after the

   Tuesday 6 March 2007. Delivery of and payment for the Offer Shares is expected to occur on

   conversion price of Versatel’s outstanding 3.875% convertible notes due 2011. The new
   conversion price and its effect on the fully diluted ownership of Tele2 Finance, is to be
   announced upon closing of the Offering.

   RTRS-'Verzetsgroep' ziet brood in claimemmissie Versatel
   AMSTERDAM (ANP) - De groep minderheidsaandeelhouders die
   zich hevig heeft verzet tegen de overname van Versatel heeft
   meegedaan aan de claimemissie van het telecom- en kabelbedrijf.
   De aandeelhouders houden zo hun belang van meer dan 13 procent
   op peil. Grootaandeelhouder blijft de Zweedse
   telecomprijsvechter Tele2 met een belang van ruim 80 procent.
   
   Versatel liet donderdag weten dat op 96,9 procent is
   ingeschreven van de onlangs aangekondigde claimemissie van bijna
   419 miljoen aandelen. De emissie levert in totaal ongeveer 255
   miljoen euro op. Beleggingsfondsen als Centaurus, dat de
   'verzetsgroep' aanvoerde, behoren ook tot de kopers, zei een
   woordvoerster van het telecombedrijf.
   
   De verwachting was juist dat de minderheidsaandeelhouders
   zouden afzien van het recht om aandelen te kopen. Onlangs leden
   zij bij de Ondernemingskamer van het gerechtshof in Amsterdam
   een gevoelige nederlaag.
   
   De Ondernemingskamer wilde geen stokje steken voor de
   aandeelhoudersvergadering die Versatel had gepland over de fusie
   met de Nederlandse en Belgische tak van Tele2. In die
   vergadering werd gestemd over de claimemissie. Met de opbrengst
   van de emissie financiert Versatel een omgekeerde overname van
   de activiteiten van Tele2. Het was Tele2 eerder niet gelukt om
   Versatel van de beurs te halen, door het verzet van de
   minderheidsaandeelhouders.
   
   Versatel probeert de resterende 3,1 procent van de
   claimemissie te plaatsen bij institutionele en professionele
   investeerders. Anders koopt Tele2 de aandelen. Het Zweedse
   telecombedrijf had zich garant gesteld voor de opbrengst.
   
   De aandelen worden uitgegeven tegen een prijs van 61
   eurocent, een fikse korting ten opzichte van de huidige
   beurskoers van 71 eurocent. Probleem is dat de aandelen
   nauwelijks verhandelbaar zijn.
