Catena to repurchase shares

Catena to repurchase shares

Catena's Annual General Meeting decided April 28, 2010 to provide the
Board with a authorization that, in the period until the next AGM, to
acquire such maximum number of shares in Catena AB to the company after
acquisition, holding a maximum of one tenth of the total number of
registered shares. 

Catena's board has under this authorization, decided to acquire a
maximum of 1,156,000 shares. The acquisitions will be done on the NASDAQ
OMX Stockholm at the current share price. 

Catena currently has no holding of treasury shares.

The purpose of the buyback of own shares is to continuously adapt the
company's capital structure to its capital requirement at any given
time, thereby enabling a contribution to enhanced shareholder value and
the possibility of financing acquisitions through payment using the
company's own shares.
