Sobi's Board of directors exercises its authorisation for

The annual general meeting of Swedish Orphan Biovitrum AB
(publ) (http://www.sobi.com/) (Sobi™) on 24 May 2016 resolved – for the purpose
of ensuring that the company can fulfill its commitments under the long-term
incentive programme resolved by the annual general meeting – on a directed share
issue of no more than 188,142 redeemable and convertible class C shares.

The general meeting also resolved to authorise the board of directors to resolve
on the repurchase of all issued class C shares by an offer directed to all
holders of class C shares. Repurchase under this authorisation may be made on
one or several occasions until the annual general meeting in 2017 and at a price
to no less than 100 per cent and no more than 105 per cent of the quotient value
of the share (approximately SEK 0.55).

The board of directors has resolved to exercise the repurchase authorisation for
the said purpose by repurchasing of all issued class C shares against payment of
100 per cent of the quotient value of the share, corresponding to approximately
SEK 0.55 per share. Repurchase of the class C shares may be effected during the
period 15 July – 27 September 2016.

The company currently holds 1,640,735 own common shares and 1,433,036 own class
C shares. Subsequently to the effected repurchase of class C shares above, the
number of own class C shares will amount to 1,621,178.

The class C shares will, following the repurchase, be converted to common shares
in the number that is required to ensure delivery under the incentive programme.
