Approval of the resolution to sell subsidiary companies (item 6 on
the agenda)

(a) The Board of Directors of the company has approved the sale of
all of the shares in the Finnish subsidiary ÅF-CTS Oy for a
consideration of €4,000,000 (four million euros), which is in line
with the book value of the subsidiary. The purchaser is the
management of ÅF-CTS Oy which in turn will subsequently sell parts of
the company to the venture capital company Nordic Mezzanine Ltd and
the venture capital company Nordic Mezzanine Ltd. ÅF-CTS Oy has 130
employees and reports sales of approximately €9,000,000 (nine million
euros) a year.

(b) The Board of Directors of the company has approved the sale of
all the shares in the French subsidiary AF-Chleq Froté S.A. for a
consideration of €3 (three euros). The purchaser is the management of
AF-Chleq Froté S.A. AF-Chleq Froté S.A. has 50 employees and reports
sales of approximately €6,000,000 (six million euros) a year.

These divestments are part of the process of re-alignment currently
being undertaken within the ÅF Process Division. In view of the fact
that the purchasers in both the above instances, (a) and (b), hold a
position such as that described in Chapter 16, Section 2, paragraph
1, clause 2 of the Swedish Companies Act, it is necessary for the
resolutions to acquire legal force that the sale in each instance is
approved by a general meeting of shareholders in AB
Ångpanneföreningen. For the resolution under item 6 of the agenda to
be valid, it is required that the proposal is adopted by shareholders
representing at least nine-tenths both of the votes cast and of the
shares represented at the general meeting.
