BULLETIN FROM AB NOVESTRA’S ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

At yesterday’s Annual General Meeting in AB Novestra, Theodor Dalenson, Colin
Kingsnorth, Anders Lönnqvist and Bertil Villard were re-elected and Jens Wilhelmsen and
Jan Söderberg were newly-elected as Board members of the Company in accordance with
the proposal of the nomination committee. The Meeting further elected Theodor Dalenson as
the Chairman of the Board of Directors. The previous Board member David E. Marcus had
declined re-election.

Jens Wilhelmsen is founder and managing partner of Anchor Capital and serves as member
of the Board of Directors in Anchor Capital and in funds under the management of Anchor
Capital. Jan Söderberg is Chairman of the Board of Directors in Voddler, Inc. and BCI
International, and serves as a member of the Board of Directors in Hardford AB.

It was resolved that, for those Board members who do not draw salary from the company, a
directors’ remuneration of in aggregate SEK 500 000 shall be paid, of which the members of
the Board are entitled to SEK 100 000 each. It was resolved that auditors’ remuneration be
paid as per current account.

The Annual General Meeting resolved to adopt the Board’s proposal regarding guidelines for
remuneration for the management and also approved the Board’s proposal regarding a
bonus plan for the Company’s employees for the financial year 2008.

It was further resolved, in accordance with the proposal from the Board, to authorise the
Board to, up until the next Annual General Meeting and with or without preferential rights for
the shareholders, resolve to issue a maximum of 6 000 000 new shares. The previous
authorisation to issue 6 000 000 new shares, which was given at last year’s Annual General
Meeting, and which has not been utilised, was valid up to this year’s Annual General Meeting
and has consequently lapsed.

The Annual General Meeting finally resolved to adopt the provisions concerning the
Nomination Committee proposed by certain larger shareholders in the company. The
resolution means that the company’s Nomination Committee shall consist of the Chairman of
the Board and one member appointed by each of the three shareholders or group of
shareholders controlling the largest number of votes. The Nomination Committee shall be
constituted based upon statistics of ownership from the shareholders’ register kept by the
Swedish Central Securities Depository as per the last banking day in August each year and
other reliable ownership information that has been provided to the Company at that time. The
Nomination Committee shall remain in office until a new Nomination Committee has been
appointed. The Nomination Committee and its Chairman should fulfill the criterions regarding
independence set out in the applicable Corporate Governance Code. The Nomination
Committee shall prepare proposals regarding the election of chairman of General Meetings,
the election of and remuneration to the Chairman of the Board and other Board members as
well as the auditors, and regarding provisions concerning the Nomination Committee.
