Tele2 and iBasis announce IPX Peering Agreement

Stockholm – Tele2 AB, (Tele2), (NASDAQ OMX Stockholm: TEL2 A and TEL2 B) and
iBasis, a KPN company, today announced a IPX Peering Agreement, which will
enable both operators to provide a consistent, high-quality International Voice
&  LTE roaming experience for their subscribers across a global footprint.
The agreement allows both Tele2 and iBasis to use each other’s IPX interconnect
for international voice, which give their customers a guaranteed high-quality
voice and high-speed data access comparable to what they receive while in their
home network. The companies are also investigating other services, such as
VoLTE. This new agreement leverages the companies’ already existing GRX peering
agreement.

Willem Offerhaus, CEO at iBasis comments: “Tele2 is one of the most growth
-oriented and innovative operators in Europe, with a very strong commitment to
4G/LTE as the engine of that growth. This multiservice IPX interconnection takes
our relationship to an even more exciting level as we enable a new generation of
services like LTE Roaming and VoLTE.”

Joachim Horn, EVP and Group CTIO at Tele2 comments: “iBasis have a great global
infrastructure and reach, which make them a great partner to take the next step
with into LTE Roaming. Together we will make it easier for our customer to
travel, since they do not need to worry about bad quality or poor internet
service. I look forward to further see what we can accomplish together”
