entitled to vote participated, representing 57.5 percent of the votes in the

President and CEO Tomas Puusepp opened up his speech to the shareholders by
saying: “Elekta is a company with a long history and experience in its field,
and this year has 35 years passed since Elekta was founded, ten years since
Philips' radiation therapy division became a member of the Elekta family and
over two years since the acquisition of IMPAC Medical Systems. Elekta's long
history and the acquisitions we have made during the years compose what Elekta
is today: a truly innovative and global medical technology company with
installations at more then 4,500 hospitals and clinics all over the world”.
Tomas Puusepp continued by saying, “I am proud to state that Elekta's clinical
solutions, IT systems and services every year is gaining an increasing
significance for cancer care and brain disorder treatment worldwide. Every day
an estimated 100,000 patients receive diagnosis, treatment or follow-up with the
help of Elekta's treatment technology or IT systems”. 

Tomas Puusepp then presented the development of the company during fiscal year
2006/07.

Fiscal year 2006/07 was yet another year of profitable growth for Elekta. During
the year Elekta reinforced its leading position in advanced image guided and
stereotactic solutions for radiosurgery and radiation therapy. Elekta's product
portfolio is currently stronger than ever, it is young, broad, highly
competitive across the line and truly unique in many respects. 

During the year Elekta introduced Leksell Gamma Knife® Perfexion™, and by that
expanded its Gamma Knife® product line with a completely new system that takes
stereotactic radiosurgery to the next level and provides a radiosurgical
platform for further refinement and expansion of procedures in the brain,
cervical spine and head & neck regions. Today, Elekta has more than 260 Leksell
Gamma Knife systems installed around the world.

In 2006/07 Elekta also introduced Elekta Axesse™, setting a new standard of
accuracy and therapeutic efficacy in extracranial stereotactic radiation therapy
(SRT) and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), applications for spinal metastases
and other radiosurgical indications. Elekta Axesse is built on years of
experience within stereotactic solutions and it brings together the knowledge
from Elekta, 3D Line, Medical intelligence and IMPAC. 

The Elekta Group also launched a new software platform during the year. MOSAIQ™
takes oncology management to new levels of efficiency centered around an
oncology specific electronical medical records (EMR) system. MOSAIQ supports all
aspects of treatment, from patient charting to billing, to data and image
storage, as well as, patient assessments and access to online clinical images.

first introduced in 2004. The company has under the period 2004-2006 made grants
of stock options under the Elekta AB 2004 Share Unit Plan. 

The Meeting decided in accordance with the proposal on the issue of employee
stock options in accordance with the Elekta AB 2007 Share Unit Plan and to
approve to issue warrants and the approval of the transfer of warrants. 

Elekta's share-related incentive program can be summarized as a model where
distributions are based on performance in relation to the Group's objectives,
where participation and distributions require personal risk through the
acquisition of shares, where participation and acquisition of shares requires
continued employment and where profits are maximized at a reasonable level.

The AGM resolved to issue free of charge a maximum of 1,856,000 warrants, each
entitling to subscription of one class B share in the company. As a result

3,712,000 corresponding at full subscription to 1.97 percent of the total number
of shares in the company. Taking into account also outstanding warrants reserved
for earlier employee option programs in the company, the share capital increase,
at full subscription, could correspond to 3,95 percent of the total number of
shares.
