Report from the Annual General Meeting of Broström AB on 3 May 2007

Broström held its Annual General Meeting at Konserthuset in Göteborg on Thursday
3 May. The Annual General Meeting was well-attended with close to 500 persons
present.

CEO's speech - Expansion from experienced strategy
In his speech CEO Lennart Simonsson pointed at the fact that Broström during the
last year has taken important steps ahead towards expansion within new segments
and in new geographical markets. Lennart Simonsson informed about how Broström
has built up critical mass in the small and medium-sized segments for European
product and chemical tanker shipping.

“With our focus on contracts of affreightment this implies that we are able to
build efficient transport systems and thereby reach a high degree of utilisation
of our fleet. For our customers this entails that we minimise the risks for
disruptions. If, for some reason, a vessel should be delayed for loading there
are always other vessels in our fleet to use”, asserted Lennart Simonsson.

In 2006 and the beginning of 2007 important steps were taken, according to
Lennart Simonsson, in order to build up the same position within mainly a larger
European segment and in the Asian market. Common for all segments is Broström's
growth strategy based on a well-balanced mix of acquisitions, vessel purchases
and strategic co-operations.

“For Broström these partnerships mean that we have been able to build up
critical mass in each segment faster than we would have on our own. By that we
have also shared the responsibility for the investments and the financial risk
as well. For our partners and for us it entails that we have been able to
increase the utilisation of our common vessels and accordingly secure a more
stable and improved profitability”, said Lennart Simonsson at the same time as
he particularly emphasized the mutuality in the co-operations.

For the rest of 2007 Lennart Simonsson predicted a continuous exciting and
interesting development both in the market and for Broström. The start of the
second quarter of 2007 has been characterised by high activity and a continued
strong freight market, especially in the Atlantic and Europe.
