In its decision of 21 December 2005 the Appeal
Court (Borgarting Lagmannsrett) ruled in favour
of Telenor in respect of Telenor`s intragroup
sale of its shares in Sonofon Holding A/S. This
sale triggered a tax loss of approx. NOK 8.6
billion, with corresponding reduced tax charges
of approximately NOK 2.4 billion for the fiscal
year 2001.
Thus, the Appeal Court upheld the decision by
Oslo District Court (Oslo Tingrett) from June
2004. Telenor does not know whether the tax
authorities will appeal this decision. An appeal
must be filed within one month.
