Sale of shares in Securitas

Due to the current uncertainty in the financial markets with the resulting general decline in share prices, my lending bank has today declared that it will immediately start selling a portion of my holdings in Securitas.

My total holdings in Securitas of shares, futures contracts, convertibles and incentive programs are approximately 4.2 million shares. The sales decided by the bank will consist of up to 2.5 million shares.

Consequently I will still have a significant holding and commitment in Securitas and my view of a continued positive development of Securitas remains unchanged.
