Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to Schedule 13D relates to the Common Shares, par value $1.50 per share (the “Common Shares”), of Millicom International Cellular S.A., a Luxembourg company (the “Issuer”), and amends and supplements the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed on February 24, 2023, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed on March 28, 2023 (“Amendment No. 1”, and as so amended, the “Schedule 13D”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 2 shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the following:

 

Since the filing of Amendment No. 1, Atlas acquired an additional 1,762,426 SDRs for an aggregate purchase price of 357,962,642.45 SEK (excluding commissions). These purchases were financed through loans from Atlas Investissement.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the following:

 

On April 21, 2023, the Issuer announced that it had nominated for election at the Issuer’s 2023 Annual General Meeting scheduled for May 31, 2023, ten individuals to serve as directors of the Board, including Thomas Reynaud, the chief executive officer of Iliad S.A., an affiliate of the Reporting Persons, Nicolas Jaeger, the deputy chief executive officer of Iliad S.A., an affiliate of the Reporting Persons, and Michael Golan, a former executive of Iliad S.A., an affiliate of the Reporting Persons. In their capacities as directors of the Issuer, each of Messrs. Reynaud, Jaeger and Golan may have influence over the corporate activities of the Issuer, including activities which may relate to items described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Items 5(a)-(c) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

(a) and (b) The percentage of beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D assumes 171,242,128 Common Shares outstanding as of April 21, 2023 (excluding 854,177 shares held in treasury as of April 21, 2023, based on information set forth in the Issuer's Current Report on Form 6-K filed by the Issuer on April, 24, 2023).

 

The aggregate number and percentage of Common Shares beneficially owned by each Reporting Person and, for each Reporting Person, the number of shares as to which there is sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition are set forth on rows 7 through 11 and row 13 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

As of the date hereof, Atlas beneficially owns 37,685,952 SDRs, which may be exchanged for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis.

 

Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any Reporting Person (other than Atlas to the extent it directly holds the securities reported herein) is the beneficial owner of the Common Shares referred to herein for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose and each of the Reporting Persons expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares.

 

(c) Except as described in this Schedule 13D or Annex B attached hereto, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in Common Shares since the filing of Amendment No. 1 on March 28, 2023.
