Acquisition of class B treasury shares

The Broström Board of Directors has today decided to acquire Class B treasury shares. The Company will acquire further up to 2 million Class B shares, corresponding to about 3% of the share capital of the company.

Based on the authorisation by the Annual General Meeting on 3 May 2007, acquisitions can be made until the next Annual General Meeting which means during a period starting on 31 August 2007 until 28 April 2008. Acquisitions will not be made within 30 days of the publication of interim or preliminary reports.

The purpose of the acquisitions is to adjust the Company’s capital structure to the capital requirements of the Company and also contribute to an increased shareholder’s value and enable acquisition of companies, vessels and/or business activities.

The acquisitions will be made on the Stockholm Stock Exchange at a price within, and by each time registered price interval. As of today the Company holds 1,216,000 Class B treasury shares.
