Closing of the Meeting PROPOSALS FOR DECISION Point 7 – Motion concerning authorization of the Board of Directors to decide on an increase in the Company’s share capital through the issue of new shares. The Board proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting authorize the Board to decide on an increase in the Company’s share capital by a maximum amount of SEK 4,140,000 through the issue on one or more occasions of not more than 2,070,000 new shares during the period up to the Annual General Meeting in 2007. The issue of new shares shall be implemented with a provision concerning non-cash consideration to be paid in connection with the acquisition of the Icelandic company Eignarhaldsfelagid Verdbrefathing HF (“EV”), whereby the right to subscribe for the new shares shall be limited exclusively to holders of shares in EV with rights and obligations for subscribers to pay for the new shares through the transfer to OMX of their EV shares in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to the acquisition. The resolution of the Extraordinary General Meeting in regard to authorization must be approved by a majority vote. Point 8 – Motion concerning an extra dividend The Board also proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting approve a profit distribution (extra dividend) of SEK 3 per share, or a total of SEK 355,718,721. In accordance with Chapter 17, Section 3, first paragraph of the Swedish Companies Act, the amount remaining for distribution, after the implementation of the dividend approved by the 2006 Annual General Meeting, is SEK 1,757,761,335. No additional value transfers have subsequently been implemented. Thursday, October 26, 2006 has been proposed as the record date for the dividend. Should the Extraordinary General Meeting approve this motion, it is anticipated that the dividend payments will be distributed by VPC on Tuesday, October 31, 2006 1). The Board considers that the proposed dividend to shareholders is justified bearing in mind the demands placed on the size of the share capital base by operations of this type, magnitude and risk, and the Company’s need to strengthen its balance sheet, liquidity and overall position. The equity/assets ratio is satisfactory, considering the fact that the Company’s and the Group’s operations continue to be conducted profitably. It has been concluded that liquidity in the Company and within the Group can be maintained at a similarly secure level. Shareholders’ equity (after taking tax effects into account) includes unrealized gains of SEK 39 million, which derive from financial instruments being booked at market value. In the opinion of the Board, the proposed dividend will not hinder the Company and the other companies in the Group from fulfilling their obligations over the short and long term, nor will it prevent the fulfillment of the requisite investments. Accordingly, the proposed dividend can be justified with regard to the stipulations of Chapter 17, Section 3, Paragraphs 2-3 of the Swedish Companies Act (prudence rule). The resolution of the Extraordinary General Meeting in regard to the extra dividend must be approved by a majority vote. DOCUMENTATION The complete Board motions in accordance with points 7 and 8 above and the documentation in accordance with Chapter 13, Sections 6-8 and Chapter 18, Sections 4-6 of the Swedish Companies Act will be available at OMX AB, Tullvaktsvägen 15, Stockholm, Sweden as of Monday, October 9, 2006 and will be distributed upon request to shareholders who supply their postal addresses.
