Publication of supplement to prospectus regarding the 2010 rights offering of SAS AB

Today SAS AB (”SAS”) has published a supplement to the previously published prospectus regarding SAS’ ongoing rights offering. The supplementary prospectus has been prepared due to the publication today by SAS of the SAS group’s interim report for the period January – March 2010 and the air traffic disruptions that have impacted the airline industry as a result of volcanic ash from the Eyjafjallajökull volcano in Iceland. The interim report, which contains information regarding the impact of the air traffic disruptions due to the volcanic ash on SAS’s operations, is included in the supplementary prospectus.

The supplementary prospectus, which has been approved and registered with the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (the “SFSA”), must be read together with the prospectus in all parts. The supplementary prospectus and the prospectus are available electronically on the websites of the SFSA (www.fi.se), SAS (www.sasgroup.net) under Investor relations, Nordea (www.nordea.se/placera) and SEB (www.seb.se/prospekt).
