Subscription of shares with the right of preference shall be made in cash during the period 25 April – 10 May 2005. The record day for participation in the new issue shall be 20 April 2005.

The right to subscribe to shares shall, with a departure from the shareholders’ right of preference, solely be due to Sagri Development AB. The issue price shall be set taking into account the current share price approximately one week prior to the Annual General Meeting adjusted for the theoretical value of the subscription right. At today’s date, the price would be approximately SEK 0.85 per share. Subscription of shares shall be made in cash or through set-off not later than 31 May 2005. The share issue shall be directed at members of the consortium which has guaranteed that the rights issue stated in item 13 above is fully subscribed. The guarantors have undertaken to accept payment in the form of newly issued B shares in compensation for the provided guarantees. To be valid, a decision of approval in accordance with this item 14 must be supported by shareholders representing at least nine tenths of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the AGM. If a decision with the requisite majority is not taken, the guarantee payment will be made in cash. Authorisation of issues (item 15 above) The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM authorises the Board to make decisions, on one or several occasions, to issue not more than 12,500,000 series B shares during the period until 30 June 2005. The Board should be able to decide on a new issue with a departure from the shareholders’ right of preference with or without a provision for a set-off or otherwise with conditions. The authorisation is intended to be utilised to direct issues of shares to the other members of the consortium which has guaranteed that the rights issue stated in item 13 above is fully subscribed. The guarantors have undertaken to accept payment in the form of newly issued B shares in compensation for the provided guarantees. The issue price shall be set taking into account the current share price at the end of the subscription period. If a decision with the requisite majority is not taken, the guarantee payment will be made in cash. In addition, the Board of Directors proposes that the AGM authorises the Board to make decisions, on one or several occasions, to issue not more than 20,000,000 series B shares until the date of the next Annual General Meeting. The Board should be able to decide on a new issue with a departure from the shareholders’ right of preference with or without a provision for a non-cash issue. The reason for a departure from the right of preference and non-cash issue is to enable the Company to issue shares in connection with the acquisition of companies, operations and rights. To be valid, a decision of approval in accordance with this item 15 must be supported by shareholders who represent at least two thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the AGM.
