7 July 2009 Company Announcement No. 15-09 Søndagsavisen a-s closes deal on purchase of 43% of the shares in Helsingør Dagblad A/S from Dansk AvisTryk A/S and expects to discontinue its printing activities. According to the shareholders' agreement between Dansk AvisTryk A/S and Søndagsavisen a-s, Søndagsavisen a-s has closed a deal on purchase of the remaining 43% of the shares in Helsingør Dagblad A/S from Dansk AvisTryk A/S, making Søndagsavisen a-s the sole owner of the company. At the same time, it is announced that Helsingør Dagblad A/S expects to discontinue its printing activities. This decision is prompted by considerable excess capacity in the printing market, which makes printing activities less profitable, and the fact that the company would have to make large-scale printing investments within the next few years. The remaining activities of Helsingør Dagblad A/S are the daily Helsingør Dagblad and the weekly newspaper Nordsjælland. These transactions will have no impact on the Group's previously announced earnings expectations for 2009. For further information, please contact Richard Bunck, chairman of the Executive Board, on tel. (+45) 48 28 01 09. Yours faithfully Søndagsavisen a-s Richard Bunck Chairman of the Executive Board
