Gunnebo appoints new President and CEO

Per Borgvall has been appointed President and CEO at Gunnebo security group. He
will succeed Göran Gezelius, who is leaving the Group following completion of
the Gunnebo One Company integration process. Per Borgvall will take up his
position as President and CEO early in the spring of 2009. Göran Gezelius will
continue in his position until then.

Per Borgvall, who is 50 years old and a graduate engineer, comes from AB
Fagerhult, where he has been President and CEO since 2004, before which he held
senior positions with IMI Plc, a British industrial group where he was president
and head of the IMI Indoor Climate division. He has also been president of Tour& Andersson AB and Uponor AB.

Martin Svalstedt, Gunnebo's chairman, comments on the appointment as follows:

“With Göran Gezelius at the helm, Gunnebo has been extensively restructured
during the past few years into a homogenous security company, and the Group is
now moving into a new phase. Per Borgvall's outstanding managerial capabilities
and solid international experience make him as successor a natural choice. We,
members of Gunnebo's board, are very pleased that we have been able to attract
Per Borgvall to take over the running of the next phase in the development of
the Group's business within the framework of its established business idea and
strategic direction.

“Göran Gezelius has been very impressive in the way he managed the process of
co-ordinating and integrating all the acquired companies into a homogenous,
customer-focused security company. Thanks to his dedication and determination he
played a decisive role in the implementation of Gunnebo One Company.

“The Board wishes to express its great thanks to Göran Gezelius for his
meritorious contribution; we would also like to welcome Per Borgvall and wish
him every success in his new position.”
