NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION IN AUSTRALIA, CANADA, JAPAN

OR THE UNITED STATES

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

prospectus, i.e. no later than on 29 April 2010. Any subscription,

application or consent that is not withdrawn will remain binding and
