Acquisition of class B treasury shares

Acquisition of class B treasury shares

The Broström Board of Directors has today decided to acquire Class B treasury
shares. The Company will acquire further up to 2 million Class B shares,
corresponding to about 3% of the share capital of the company.

Based on the authorisation by the Annual General Meeting on 3 May 2007,
acquisitions can be made until the next Annual General Meeting which means
during a period starting on 31 August 2007 until 28 April 2008. Acquisitions
will not be made within 30 days of the publication of interim or preliminary
reports.

The purpose of the acquisitions is to adjust the Company's capital structure to
the capital requirements of the Company and also contribute to an increased
shareholder's value and enable acquisition of companies, vessels and/or business
activities.

The acquisitions will be made on the Stockholm Stock Exchange at a price within,
and by each time registered price interval. As of today the Company holds
1,216,000 Class B treasury shares.
