Conversion of shares

According to SCA's articles of association, owners of Class A shares have the right to

have such shares converted to Class B shares. Conversion reduces the total number of

votes in the company. When such a conversion has occurred, the company is obligated by

law to disclose any such changes in this manner.

In January, at the request of shareholders, 300 Class A shares were converted to

Class B shares. The total number of votes in the company thereafter amounts to

1,703,569,257.

The total number of registered shares in the company amounts to 705,110,094, of which

110,939,907 are Class A shares and 594,170,187 are Class B shares.
