The Annual General Meeting held on May 4th, 2011 authorized the Board of Directors to conduct a reverse split of shares with one (1) new share for every ten (10) existing shares. The Board has decided that the record date for the reverse split will be May 23rd. The last day for trading the old number of shares is May 18th and the first day for trading the new number of shares is May 19th.
As a consequence of the reverse split, the number of shares will decrease from 1,067,028,040 to 106,702,804 and par value will increase from 0.10 Swedish krona to 1.00 Swedish krona.
If a shareholder owns old class B shares not fully corresponding to a full new share, the odd lot will be transferred to Pricer to be sold in the market at the expense of the company. The received payment will then be distributed between those shareholders who owned shares at the time of the transfer to Pricer on a pro rata basis. The total number of class B shares acquired by Pricer due to this transaction is so low that their sale on the market will not have a significant effect on the share price.
