At their Annual General Meeting held on 23 April 2008 the
shareholders in ÅF AB resolved to implement a new performance-related
share savings programme for up to 150 key individuals within the
company, including the President/CEO. The purpose of this long-term
incentive programme is to motivate ÅF employees to remain loyal to
the company and to continue to perform strongly in their professional
roles.

Employees who participate in the performance-related share programme
for 2008 can reserve a sum corresponding to a maximum of 5 percent of
their gross salary for the purchase of ÅF class B shares on the OMX
Nordic Exchange in Stockholm over a 12-month period with effect from
the implementation of the programme.

By the time the application period had expired 100 ÅF employees in
senior positions had expressed an interest in purchasing
approximately 20,600 shares for the entire 2008 programme.

In the event that the performance targets that have been set up are
achieved, some 87,000 shares will be transferred to the employees
without consideration during 2011 and 2012. This can lead to a 0.5%
dilution of earnings per share.

Information about the proposal in its entirety is available on the ÅF
AB homepage - afconsult.com.
