Results of the offer for the shares of Norma


On 17 March 2010, AS Automotive Holding (“AH”) - a wholly owned subsidiary of
Autoliv Inc. - announced a cash offer for the shares of AS Norma (“Norma”). The
acceptance period of the cash offer ended on 14 April 2010. AH was offering EEK
92.31 for each share of Norma. 

The cash offer was conditional upon AH receiving valid acceptances for such
number of shares of Norma  which, together with shares of Norma already owned
by AH, amount to at least 11,880,000 shares i.e. represent at least ninety per
cent (90%) of all shares of Norma and of all voting rights represented by such
shares (the “Threshold Condition”). 

In the course of the acceptance period the shareholders decided to sell to AH a
total of 5,641,771 shares, constituting approximately 42.7 per cent of all
shares of Norma and approximately 87.2 per cent of shares which were the
subject of the offer. Following the acquisition of shares in the cash offer, AH
will own, a total of 12,373,771 shares, constituting approximately 93.7 per
cent of all shares of Norma. The Threshold Condition was thus fulfilled. 

Payment of the offer price to the shareholders who accepted the offer and the
transfer of shares to AH will be executed on 22 April 2010. 

Taking into consideration the results of the cash offer, the Autoliv Group has
decided to initiate a process for acquisition of the remaining shares in Norma
in accordance with Article 1821 of the Securities Market Act of Estonia. The
shareholders of Norma will be informed about further actions in this process in
accordance with applicable rules. 

By virtue of Article 1822 of the Securities Market Act, the cash offer remains
open for acceptance to those Norma shareholders who have not accepted the offer
during the original acceptance period (sell-out right). Such shareholders have
the right to accept the offer until (i) the date being three months from the
date of this notice or (ii) the approval by the general meeting of shareholders
of Norma of a decision regarding compulsory sale of shares for fair
compensation in accordance with Article 1821 of the Securities Market Act,
whichever occurs earlier. 

Considering that AH has informed Norma management board of its intent to
request Norma management board to convene a general meeting for the approval of
the decision regarding compulsory sale of shares for fair compensation on or
around 25 May 2010, the settlement with shareholders who have exercised their
sell-out right will be executed on 04 June 2010. 

Each shareholder wishing to exercise the sell-out right must contact the
relevant custodian of its securities account who operates the ECRS securities
