's-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands,  April 18,  2008 -  Tele Atlas  NV
(FSE: TA6, EUNV: TA), a leading  global provider of digital maps  and
dynamic  content  for  navigation   and  location  based   solutions,
announced today that Tele Atlas  expects first quarter 2008  revenues
to be approximately ?59 million compared to ?64 million in the  first
quarter of 2007. The decrease in revenues was mainly due to  exchange
rate effects  and  lower  revenues from  customers  in  the  European
portable navigation  market. According  to our  customers,  retailers
reduced their  inventory levels  more strongly  than expected,  which
restricted sell-in volumes in the quarter.

Our major portable  navigation customers have  reduced their  outlook
for 2008 revenues and we expect these reductions to negatively impact
our 2008 revenues. Our current plan is to update our 2008 guidance in
connection with the release of our first quarter results on April 29,
2008.

Regarding the TomTom cash offer for all the shares of Tele Atlas,  as
announced in the press release of  March 27, 2008 Tele Atlas  remains
confident that the constructive dialogue with the European Commission
will lead to clearance of the proposed transaction.
