Approval of the resolution to sell subsidiary companies (item 6 on the agenda)

• (a) The Board of Directors of the company has approved the sale of all of the shares in the Finnish subsidiary ÅF-CTS Oy for a consideration of €4,000,000 (four million euros), which is in line with the book value of the subsidiary. The purchaser is the management of ÅF-CTS Oy which in turn will subsequently sell parts of the company to the venture capital company Nordic Mezzanine Ltd and the venture capital company Nordic Mezzanine Ltd. ÅF-CTS Oy has 130 employees and reports sales of approximately €9,000,000 (nine million euros) a year.
• (b) The Board of Directors of the company has approved the sale of all the shares in the French subsidiary AF-Chleq Froté S.A. for a consideration of €3 (three euros). The purchaser is the management of AF-Chleq Froté S.A. AF-Chleq Froté S.A. has 50 employees and reports sales of approximately €6,000,000 (six million euros) a year.

These divestments are part of the process of re-alignment currently being undertaken within the ÅF Process Division. In view of the fact that the purchasers in both the above instances, (a) and (b), hold a position such as that described in Chapter 16, Section 2, paragraph 1, clause 2 of the Swedish Companies Act, it is necessary for the resolutions to acquire legal force that the sale in each instance is approved by a general meeting of shareholders in AB Ångpanneföreningen. For the resolution under item 6 of the agenda to be valid, it is required that the proposal is adopted by shareholders representing at least nine-tenths both of the votes cast and of the shares represented at the general meeting.

A proxy form for shareholders who wish to take part in the meeting via proxy will be available from the company at Fleminggatan 7 in Stockholm from 31 July 2007 and on the company's website: www.afconsult.com.
