Suspected insider crime

The prosecutor at the Swedish National Economic Crimes Bureau has
applied to institute proceedings on suspected insider crime referring
to Jan Barchan, member of the Board of Studsvik AB.

The background to the application is a transaction that took place in
August 2006. The transaction was reported to Finansinspektionen (the
Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority) within the prescribed
period.

In the application, however, the prosecutor at the Swedish National
Economic Crimes Bureau asserts that when carrying out the transaction
Jan Barchan had knowledge of an order that was made public in a press
release dated August 24, 2006.

Jan Barchan has previously submitted a report to the Board on the
transaction in question and the Economic Crimes Bureau investigation,
clarifying the grounds on which he bases his belief that he has not
acted in contravention of insider legislation. In this context, the
Board established that the company's insider rules are clear and that
they plainly state the times and circumstances in which the company's
shares can be traded.

Jan Barchan notified the Board during the weekend that - despite the
fact that he believes himself to be innocent - he does not intend to
participate in the work of the Board during the court's continued
processing of the case.
