The Board of Directors in Boss Media recommends the increased offer from GEMed
AB

1. Background

This statement is made by the Board of Directors* in Boss Media AB (publ) (“Boss
Media”) in accordance with section II.14 in the OMX Nordic Exchange Stockholm
AB's Rules Regarding Takeover Offers (the “Takeover Rules”).

At the end of 2007 the Board of Directors in Boss Media was contacted by a
number of parties indicating an interest in acquiring 100 percent of the shares
in Boss Media. The Board of Directors considered the indications of interest to
be serious and of interest to Boss Media's shareholders. The Board of Directors
therefore decided to establish a process to give access to a limited number of
parties to conduct a limited due diligence and to meet with the Boss Media
management. The purpose of the process has been to ensure that the potential
offerors are treated equally and that the shareholders of Boss Media receive the
best price possible. 

GEMed AB (“GEMed”) on 1 February 2008 announced a public cash offer to the
shareholders in Boss Media to tender all outstanding shares in Boss Media to
GEMed (the “Offer”). GEMed offers SEK 19 in cash per share in Boss Media. The
offer document containing the Offer was made public on 5 February 2008 (the
“Offer Document”). 

GEMed has on 13 February 2008 through a press release (the ”Press Release”)
announced that the Offer is increased to SEK 25 per Boss Media share in cash
consideration. 

According to the Offer Document GEMed is indirectly jointly-owned by GTECH
Corporation (“GTECH”) and Medströms AB (“Medströms”). GTECH owns approximately
87.5 percent and Medströms approximately 12.5 percent of GEMed.

The acceptance period for the Offer is 7 - 27 February 2008. The Offer is,
amongst other conditions, conditional upon being accepted to the extent that
GEMed becomes the owner of more than 90 percent of the total number of shares in
Boss Media. 

Please see the Offer Document and the Press Release for more details regarding
the Offer.


2. Recommendation by the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors* notes that GEMed has stated the following in the Offer
Document:

“GEMed attributes great value to Boss Media's management and employees and also
intends to continue to safeguard the excellent relationship among Boss Media
employees that is evident to GEMed. GEMed does not plan to implement any more
significant changes with regard to employees or any significant changes for
terms and conditions of employment. The above mentioned motives for the Offer
are not considered to entail any significant effect on employment nor with
regard to places where the operations of Boss Media are conducted. ”

In the opinion of the Board of Directors* the businesses in Växjö as well as in
Stockholm will remain and the employment in Boss Media will not be negatively
affected by the transaction.

Meg Tivéus, Chairman of the Board of Directors in Boss Media, comments:

“A combination between Boss Media and GTECH is industrially sound. We think the
prerequisites for GTECH and Boss Media to create a competitive supplier
alternative in an expansive industry are favourable. The revised cash offer
presented by GEMed, as a consequence of the process conducted, means that Boss
Media's shareholders receive a substantially higher price for their shares
compared to the share price prior to the initiation of the process. “  

The recommendation by the Board of Directors* is based on factors and
considerations that the Board of Directors* has deemed relevant in relation to
the Offer. This includes the current and future development of the operation and
financial result of Boss Media stand alone. Further, the Board of Directors* has
taken into account the contents of the indicative offers received from other
parties. 

The Board of Directors* has, in accordance with section III.3 in the Takeover
Rules, obtained a fairness opinion regarding the Offer from HDR Partners. HDR
Partners is the financial adviser to Boss Media and has in this capacity managed
the process towards the interested parties. In the fairness opinion from HDR
Partners it is stated, subject to the assumptions, conclusions and
qualifications stated therein, that the Offer of SEK 25 in cash per share in
Boss Media is fair from a financial point of view**. The fairness opinion is
attached to this statement.

Based on the above, and considering all circumstances, the Board of Directors*
considers the Offer of SEK 25 in cash per share to be attractive to the
shareholders in Boss Media. The Board of Directors* unanimously recommends the
shareholders in Boss Media to accept the Offer. 

This statement from the Board of Directors* is in all respects to be governed by
and construed in accordance with Swedish law. Any dispute arising out of or in
connection with this statement is to be settled exclusively by Swedish courts. 

The Board of Directors has engaged Setterwalls as legal adviser.
