Nominating Committee ahead of the 2008 Annual General Meeting

Nominating Committee ahead of the 2008 Annual General Meeting

The 2007 Annual General Meeting of Seco Tools passed a resolution to appoint a
Nominating Committee consisting of the Board Chairman (who acts as convener) and
one representative for each of the four principal shareholders. The composition
of the Nominating Committee shall be made public as soon as the members have
been appointed. The Nominating Committee shall be chaired by the member
representing the largest shareholder and its members shall serve for the period
until the appointment of a new Nominating Committee. 

The responsibilities of the Nominating Committee are to put forward
recommendations regarding election of the Chairman of the Annual General
Meeting, the number of members to serve on the Board of Directors, compensation
to Board members and auditors, candidates for election of Board members and the
Board Chairman, the number of auditors and election of auditors, and proposals
for appointment of a Nominating Committee ahead of the 2009 Annual General
Meeting and its duties. 

Based on the ownership structure in Seco Tools on 31 August 2007, the Nominating
Committee ahead of the 2008 Annual General Meeting consists of Lars Pettersson
(Sandvik AB), Marianne Nilsson (Swedbank Robur Fonder), Jan-Erik Erenius (AMF
Pension), Ramsay J. Brufer (Alecta Pensionsförsäkring) and Anders Ilstam, Board
Chairman. Lars Pettersson has been appointed chairman of the Nominating
Committee.

Because Sandvik holds 60% of the share capital, corresponding to 89% of the
votes in Seco Tools AB, a representative for Sandvik AB has been appointed to
the Nominating Committee despite the fact that Sandvik's Sandvik Tooling
business area conducts operations that compete with Seco Tools AB. However, no
representative for Sandvik Tooling is included in the Nominating Committee, the
Board of Directors or any other corporate governance body.

Shareholders who wish to submit recommendations to the Nominating Committee via
the company can do so by mail addressed to Seco Tools AB,  Att: Britt-Marie
Conradsson, SE-737 82 Fagersta, Sweden, or by e-mail addressed to
britt-marie.conradsson@secotools.com.
