At their Annual General Meeting on 5 May 2009, ÅF shareholders gave
the Board a mandate to buy back up to 270,000 of the company's class
B shares before the 2010 Annual General Meeting.

In a decision based on this mandate, the Board of ÅF AB, resolved to
acquire a maximum of 270,000 class B shares, during the period of 4th
of November 2009 until the 5th of May 2010. The shares will be
purchased for cash on the OMX Nordic Exchange in Stockholm at a price
that falls within the registered share price range at the time of
purchase.

The purpose of the buy-backs is to safeguard the company's
obligations with regard to the Performance-Related Share Programme
2009 that was approved by the 2009 AGM.
