The Annual General Meeting of Aktiebolaget SKF, parent company of the SKF Group, was held in Göteborg on Thursday, 29 April 2010, under the chairmanship of Mr Leif Östling.

The income statements and the balance sheets of the parent company and the Group were adopted, together with the Board's proposal for distribution of dividend. The proposed dividend of SEK 3.50 per share was approved. To be entitled to receive the dividend, shareholders must be recorded in the share register on 4 May 2010.

The Meeting resolved that the Board's fee for 2010 is to be in accordance with the following:

a) a firm allotment of SEK 3,500,000 to be distributed with SEK 900,000 to the Chairman of the Board, and with SEK 325,000 to each other Board member elected by the General Meeting and not employed by the company;

b) a variable allotment corresponding to the value, calculated as below, of 3,200 company shares of series B to be received by the Chairman, and 1,200 shares of series B to be received by each other Board member; and

c) an allotment for committee work of SEK 650,000 to be divided with SEK 150,000 to the chairman of the Audit Committee, with SEK 100,000 to each of the other members of the Audit Committee and with SEK 75,000 to each of the members of the Remuneration Committee.

A prerequisite for obtaining an allotment is that the Board member is elected by the General Meeting and is not employed by the company.

When deciding upon the variable allotment, the value of a share of series B in the company shall be determined at the average latest payment rate according to the quotations on the NASDAQ OMX Stockholm AB during the five trading days after publication of the company's press release for the financial year 2010.

The following Board members were reelected: Mr Leif Östling, Ms Ulla Litzén, Mr Tom Johnstone, Ms Winnie Kin Wah Fok, Mr Hans-Olov Olsson, Ms Lena Treschow Torell, Mr Peter Grafoner, Mr Lars Wedenborn and Mr Joe Loughrey. Mr Jouko Karvinen was elected as new Board member. Jouko Karvinen is the CEO of Stora Enso Oyj. He is also a Board member of the Finnish Forest Industries Federation and Confederation of European Paper Industries (CEPI), a member of the Election Committee of the Confederation of Finnish Industries (EK), a member of the Business Co-Operation Council and Co-Chairman of the Forest Industry Task Force, EU-Russia Industrialists' Round Table (IRT).

Mr Leif Östling was elected Chairman of the Board.

The Meeting approved the Board's proposal regarding principles of remuneration for Group Management and the Board's proposal for a resolution on SKF's Performance Share Programme 2010. The programme covers not more than 310 senior managers and key employees in the SKF Group with an opportunity to be allotted, free of charge, SKF class B shares. Under the programme, not more than 1,000,000 shares, corresponding to around 0.2% of the total number of outstanding shares, may be allotted. The number of shares that may be allotted must be related to the degree of achievement of financial targets defined by the Board in accordance with the Group's TVA management model and must pertain to the period commencing 20010 up to and including 2012.

The Meeting authorized the Board to decide upon the repurchase of the company's own shares for the period until the next Annual General Meeting. The authorization concerns shares of series A as well as series B. The maximum amount of shares to be repurchased is so many shares that the company thereafter holds a maximum of 5% of all shares issued by the company.

The Meeting approved the proposal presented regarding the Nomination Committee.
