The last day of trading the Betsson share, including the right to the distribution of the Angler shares, will be June 29, 2012. The distribution is in accordance with what is referred to as the Lex ASEA rules, with the result that no immediate taxation will arise to shareholders in Sweden. Instead, the tax basis of the Betsson shares that confer entitlement to participate in the distribution will be allocated between these shares and the Angler shares received. Additional information will be available at www.betssonab.com during the autumn.
