2008: The operational expenditures are estimated to SEK
40-60 million and the capital expenditures are estimated
to SEK 100-300 million

23. FINANCIAL COMMENTS: RUSSIA
FINANCIAL IMPACT OF THE 17 NEW LICENSES
Up to 12 regions out of 17 will have been launched
as 2009
New operations should be able to reach an EBITDA break-
even three years after commercial launch date
The longer term market share in the 17 new regions
should not deviate significantly from the historic market
share of Tele2 Russia
