CALL FOR ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING, SHARE REDEMPTION OF SEK 9.00 PER SHARE
The earnings trend in Betsson AB is continued strong and in order to transfer
funds in a positive way for our shareholders to the shareholders and to keep an
appropriate capital structure the Board of Directors of Betsson suggests that
the AGM resolve to approve a share redemption scheme of SEK 9.00 per share.
Proposed redemption process in brief
• Subject to a resolution by the AGM on 6 May 2010, each Betsson share (both

redemption payment of SEK 9.00.
