STOCKHOLM, Sweden--(Business Wire)--
Regulatory News:

   The Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organization (FMT),
yesterday terminated a contract with Saab (STO:SAABB) regarding a
Command and Control System called DACCIS, aimed for the Danish Army.
The FMT has also claimed Saab for some DDK 143 million. Development of
the current version of DACCIS has been ongoing for three years.

   During the negotiation of an amendment, Saab and FMT have had
different perspectives of the prerequisites, however it's Saab's
belief that the amendment now can be implemented according to FMT's
specifications and that the development can continue in a dialog with
the FMT. Saab does not see any ground to terminate the contract.

   Saab serves the global market with world-leading products,
services and solutions ranging from military defence to civil
security. Saab has operations and employees on all continents and
constantly develops, adopts and improves new technology to meet
customers' changing needs.
