About Spectrum and DBD
Following the completion of the Transaction, DBD continues to own 32 regional radio spectrum licences cover areas with approximately 16.5 million inhabitants including many of Germany’s largest metropolitan centres: Berlin, Leipzig, Dresden, Düsseldorf and Hanover. They convey the right to utilise the assigned 28 MHz of frequencies in the 3.5 GHz range in perpetuity. The regional radio spectrum licences therefore enable potential owners to make long term investment decisions when faced with the challenge of delivering greater levels of data capacity to subscribers as 4G services are deployed in Germany for smart phones, tablet devices and mobile computing.

The remaining licences are now being carried on Spectrum’s balance sheet at an overall value of €2.5 million, equivalent to approximately €0.005/MHz/pop, (a measure often used in the industry) which the Company believes to be a conservative valuation.
