FINAL OUTCOME OF OBDUCAT DEBENTURE LOAN ISSUE – TRADING IN DEBENTURES AND WARRANTS TO COMMENCE APRIL 29

The final outcome of the Obducat debenture loan issue was as follows:

· The preferential cash tranche (directed at present shareholders) was oversubscribed with some 32 %.

· In the swap tranche (directed at holders of the 2001/2004 debenture) the subscription rate was 69 %.

Obducat has consequently attracted some MSEK 50,4 in cash before issue expenses, at the same time the amount subject to refund of the 2001/2004 debenture loan (due in May 2004) was reduced with more than MSEK 12 down to some MSEK 5.
