Publication of supplement to prospectus regarding the 2010 rights
offering of SAS AB
Today SAS AB ("SAS") has published a supplement to the previously
published prospectus regarding SAS' ongoing rights offering. The
supplementary prospectus has been prepared due to the publication today
by SAS of the SAS group's interim report for the period January - March
2010 and the air traffic disruptions that have impacted the airline
industry as a result of volcanic ash from the Eyjafjallajökull volcano
in Iceland. The interim report, which contains information regarding the
impact of the air traffic disruptions due to the volcanic ash on SAS's
operations, is included in the supplementary prospectus.
The supplementary prospectus, which has been approved and registered
with the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (the "SFSA"), must be
read together with the prospectus in all parts. The supplementary
prospectus and the prospectus are available electronically on the
websites of the SFSA (www.fi.se), SAS (www.sasgroup.net) under Investor
relations, Nordea (www.nordea.se/placera) and SEB (www.seb.se/prospekt).
The supplementary prospectus is also available at SAS's head office
(Frösundaviks Allé 1, Solna, Sweden) and can, subject to applicable
securities regulations, be ordered free of charge by telephone from
Nordea in Sweden (+46 8 678 04 50), Denmark, (+45 33 33 50 92) and
Norway (+47 22 48 62 62).
Under Chapter 2, Section 34 of the Swedish Financial Instruments Trading
Act of 1991, those investors who have subscribed for or applied for, or
in any other manner consented to subscription for securities covered by
the prospectus before the publication of the supplementary prospectus
are entitled to withdraw their subscriptions, applications or consents
