Item 13 Authorization for the Board of Directors to decide on buy-back
and conveyance of the Company's own shares
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting passes a
resolution authorizing the Board of Directors to decide - during the
period until the next following regularly scheduled annual general
meeting - to buy back the maximum number of class B shares whereby the
Company's holding of its own shares would not exceed 10 percent of the
number of shares outstanding from time to time. Purchases shall be
effected over the Stockholm Stock Exchange at the price quoted at the
time of purchase.

The Board of Directors further proposes that the Annual General Meeting
authorizes the Board of Directors - during the period until the next
following regularly scheduled annual general meeting - to sell its own
shares held in treasury in conjunction with future acquisitions of
companies or businesses in ways other than over the Stockholm Stock
Exchange. The authorization may be exercised on one or more occasions
and includes any and all shares held in treasury by the Company at the
time of the resolution of the Board of Directors. The authorization
includes a right to decide on a departure from the preferential right of
shareholders and that payment may be effected in forms other than money.
The purpose of the buy-back is to provide the Board of Directors with an
additional instrument to use in working with the Company's capital
structure, and to enable the Company to pay for acquisitions using the
Company's own shares. Holdings of shares in treasury also secures the
Company's undertaking according to the option program for members of
senior management approved by the general meeting of shareholders held
December 17, 2001.

The complete proposal of the Board of Directors will be available for
inspection at the offices of the Company from August 6, 2002 and will be
mailed to shareholders who so request and provide their mailing address.
