Extraordinary General Meeting of Securitas resolves sale of TeleLarm Care to shareholders

The price for the shares amounts to approximately MSEK 320, or SEK 98.50 per share, which corresponds to a fair market value.

The resolution is that shareholders holding up to and including 1,000 Securitas shares are offered to purchase ten Care shares. Shareholders holding more than 1,000 Securitas shares are offered to purchase one Care share for every one hundred shares, or part thereof, held in Securitas. Not fewer than ten shares in Care may be purchased.

Two of Securitas' main owners, SäkI AB, with Gustaf Douglas as a majority owner, and Melker Schörling, have pledged to waive part of their entitlement to purchase shares in Care in order to
enable shareholders of Securitas holding up to and including 1,000 shares to purchase ten shares and to enable shareholders holding more than 1,000 shares to purchase one share in Care for every one hundred shares, or part thereof, held. The main owners have also undertaken to purchase all shares in Care which are not purchased by other shareholders, on terms corresponding to the offer to
Securitas' shareholders.
