Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 14 (“Amendment No. 14”) 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. 2 to the Schedule 13D filed on April 26, 2023, Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D filed on May 12, 2023, Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D filed on May 25, 2023, Amendment No. 5 to the Schedule 13D filed on June 2, 2023, Amendment No. 6 to the Schedule 13D filed on July 24, 2023, Amendment No. 7 to the Schedule 13D filed on August 24, 2023, Amendment No. 8 to the Schedule 13D filed on October 2, 2023, Amendment No. 9 to the Schedule 13D filed on November 8, 2023, Amendment No. 10 to the Schedule 13D filed on January 17, 2024, Amendment No. 11 to the Schedule 13D filed on May 23, 2024, Amendment No. 12 to the Schedule 13D filed on July 3, 2024 and Amendment No. 13 to the Schedule 13D filed on July 22, 2024 (as so amended, the “Schedule 13D”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 14 shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
Atlas’ tender offer for all of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Shares and SDRs referred to in this Schedule 13D commenced on July 1, 2024. This Schedule 13D is for informational purposes only and is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell any securities of the Issuer or any other securities, nor is it a substitute for the Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement, including the Offer to Purchase, Letter of Transmittal and related documents, that Atlas has filed under cover of Schedule TO with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement that the Issuer has filed on Scherdule 14D-9 with the SEC. The US Offer is only being made pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, the Letter of Transmittal and related documents filed as a part of the Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement filed under cover of Schedule TO. The Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement (including the Offer to Purchase, the related Letter of Transmittal and certain other offer documents) and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 of the Issuer contain important information that US Holders of Common Shares should consider before making any decision with respect to the tender offer. US Holders of Common Shares are urged to read these documents carefully. Investors and security holders may obtain a free copy of these statements and other documents filed with the SEC at the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov, or by directing such requests to the Information Agent for the tender offer that is named in the Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement filed under cover of Schedule TO.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
On August 2, 2024, Atlas increased the Offer Price from USD 24.00 to USD 25.75 per Common Share and per SDR. The maximum amount of funds required to consummate the Offers pursuant to this revised Offer Price is approximately USD 3.1 billion, or SEK 33.1 billion, in each case based on an illustrative USD/SEK exchange rate of 10.6 as of June 28, 2024. Atlas has also increased the maximum aggregate amount available under the Interim Facilities from USD 8,000,000,000 to USD 8,200,000,000 in connection with the increase of the Offer Price. The terms of the Commitment Letters are otherwise unchanged. It is expected that the Long-Term Financing will now be comprised of USD 7,300,000,000 financings to be entered into by Purchaser but the terms of the Long-Term Financing will otherwise be unchanged by such increase in the Offer Price. Citibank Europe Plc, Ireland Branch, has also been added to the group of arrangers and original lenders party to the Commitment Letters and to the group of arrangers and original lenders party to the Long-Term Financings.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:
On August 2, 2024, Atlas filed an amendment to the Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.
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 is based on 171,274,816 Common Shares outstanding as of July 5, 2024 (172,096,305 Common Shares outstanding, less 821,489 Common Shares held in treasury, as set forth in the last relevant update available on the date hereof in the “Stock Information” section of the Issuer’s website).
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 August 2, 2024, Atlas beneficially owned 49,966,734 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, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in Common Shares during the past sixty days.
