BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Niscayah is a leading security company specializing in technical security services. Niscayah offers complete security solutions for customers with high security demands within segments such as bank and post, retail, utilities, transport and logistics and gas stations. Niscayah has approximately 5,100 employees and has operations in 14 countries in Europe and in the United States. The Company is divided into two geographical segments, Mainland Europe and US/UK/Ireland.

STRATEGY

During the year 2010, Niscayah developed a new strategic direction which will serve as a platform for the work on improvements in the coming years. In summary, the direction may be condensed into three cornerstones:

Specialize the operations towards customer segments

The operations should be specialized towards segments where Niscayah is or can become market leader. Through greater specialization Niscayah will get closer to its customers and can provide more knowledge and value.

Package customer solutions and make them clear

The customer offerings should be clear and packaged in a way so that they generate a high value and service content for the customer, become easier to sell and more cost efficient to produce.

Develop a common operational model in Niscayah

With common work practices, for example in sales and production, efficiency can be improved, quality in delivery to customers can be ensured and the demands of international customers can be met cost-effectively. Regular follow up and clear allocation of responsibilities are also important components.

SERVICE OFFERING

Niscayah provides a complete offering of security services – all from design and installation of security systems to service, maintenance and repairs as well as day-to-day operation of systems.

System operations

Niscayah offers services for operation and monitoring of security systems. Niscayah’s 12 security centers in Europe and in the US are the core of the offering. Examples of services offered by the centers include alarm monitoring, video surveillance, management of access control systems, fire alarm monitoring and system maintenance.

The technological development means that increasing numbers of services may be offered from the security centers. Alarm systems containing cameras can activate camera images in the event of alarm for the operators and a good understanding of the situation can be gained rapidly in this way. The security centers are an important part of Niscayah’s offering and often serve as a regular interface in relation to the customer. System management such as fault localization and system updates can also be performed remotely if the customer’s alarm system is connected to a security center.

System management

Niscayah offers a number of different system management services depending on what demands the customer has regarding the accessibility and features of the security system. Niscayah also offers service contracts with an agreed response time or according to a specific functionality requirement in the system. The services may include preventive measures such as checks and regular maintenance, but even fault localization and repairs of security systems when required.

Niscayah’s service offering is being constantly developed in order to offer good service solutions adapted to the different security requirements in the customer segments. Niscayah provides all service and maintenance according to a predetermined time schedule to many of its customers.

Implementation

Implementation includes analysis, design and installation of security systems. Components in systems include access control, video surveillance, intrusion protection and fire alarm systems. Niscayah always manages the work in projects, but certain standardized parts of the installation, for example, electrical work and assembly of equipment, can be outsourced to subcontractors. Niscayah can also integrate security systems with the customers’ other systems, creating a good overview for the customer.

Niscayah is working on segmenting the offering into a more standardized model for smaller and medium-sized customers, while customers with high demands regarding customization and specialization require a more advanced installation offering. The competition is intense on many markets so efficiency and low costs are important competitive advantages.

TECHNOLOGY AREAS

Niscayah combines and packages security solutions independently based on the product range of a number of suppliers. The technology areas are video surveillance, intrusion protection, access control and fire alarm systems.

Video surveillance

Niscayah offers advanced video surveillance systems which for example can automatically emit an alarm in the event of an abnormality and can be monitored centrally from Niscayah’s security center. The systems can also be simpler, where monitoring takes place locally at the customer. Video surveillance is the fastest growing technology area.

Intrusion alarms

Intrusion alarms often form the basis of a security system. Components include motion detectors, magnetic contacts and vibration detectors. Almost all companies and organizations have some form of intrusion alarm.

Access control

Access control systems enable an efficient flow of people, while simultaneously maintaining a high level of security. Passes or entry badges can be administered via Niscayah’s security centers where access can also be controlled remotely.

Fire alarm systems

The design of fire alarm systems is often governed by laws and regulations and the systems include fire detectors, sprinkler systems, control units and warning systems. Fire alarm systems include services such as training and workshops.

CUSTOMER GROUPS

With unique competence within technical security services as well as a good understanding of the customer’s area of operation and risk profile, the grounds for offering the right security solution to the customer are created, based on their specific needs. Niscayah is continually developing the offerings towards a greater specialization for the customer groups.

Bank and post

Niscayah’s offering includes complete integrated security systems adapted to banking offices, ATM surveillance systems, positioning systems for secure transport, assault alarms and training of security personnel and security managers. The systems are often connected to Niscayah’s

alarm centers in order to rapidly request the correct action in the event of an incident and ensure continual operational supervision. Bank and post is Niscayah’s largest customer group and the company is market-leading within this segment in a number of European markets.

Retail

Niscayah’s offering for retail aims to deliver a safe and secure environment for staff while at the same time, the systems shall contribute to preventing theft, wastage and other crimes. Services such as alarm monitoring and function control are offered from Niscayah’s security centers. Another common service for retail is administration of access control systems. Niscayah also offers more advanced systems for retail, for example, video surveillance systems which can indicate how customers move in different store environments and measure customer flows at different points in time.

Utilities

Niscayah offers complete security systems for utilities with components such as intrusion alarms, video surveillance, access control systems and integration of other operating systems. Niscayah’s geographical coverage means that service and maintenance can be performed with relatively short response times.

Transport and logistics

Niscayah offers complete security solutions for the transport and logistics segment. Basic services include intrusion protection and video surveillance, for example, of terminals, airports and ports. Niscayah also offers more advanced solutions such as GPS positioning.

Gas stations

Niscayah offers a complete system for gas stations which includes components such as intrusion protection, access control and video surveillance. For gas stations, like for retail generally, the systems are designed in order to reduce criminality and make the working environment secure for the staff.

Other industry and public sector

Niscayah offers a broad spectrum of services to customers with high security needs, such as defense and correctional facilities, but also provides simpler solutions to customers with lower requirements. Niscayah offers operation, service and maintenance as well as installation of the security solutions.

SHARE-RELATED COMPENSATIONS

In 2007, Niscayah launched a share option scheme comprising of warrants to certain employees of the group. Because those employees acquired the warrants at market value, Niscayah has not been charged with any costs for the program. Warrant Program 2007/2012 consists of 5,000,000 warrants; each warrant entitles the holder to subscribe for one new share of series B in Niscayah at a price of SEK 30 per share. The subscription of shares may take place from June 30, 2007 to June 30, 2012.

The warrants were sold at a price of SEK 3.40 per warrant. This price, established by an independent rating agency, represents the market value of the warrants using the Black & Scholes model based on the detailed score components during the calculation period from June 13 to June 14, 2007. Assuming full exercise of the warrants, the share capital may be increased by not more than SEK 5,000,000, which represents approximately 1.37 per cent of Niscayah’s present share capital and approximately 0.96 per cent of the votes.

At the annual general meeting on May 6, 2010 and the annual general meeting on May 3, 2011, it was decided to introduce long-term performance share programs, the LTIP 2010 and LTIP 2011, to senior executives and key personnel of Niscayah. The purpose of the performance based incentive programs is to ensure long-term commitment of the existing senior executives and key personnel and also improve Niscayah’s opportunities for future recruitments. Using the shares of Niscayah as a key instrument in the incentive programs rewards both equity participation and long-term growth in Niscayah, which implies the creation of common goals for existing shareholders and participants in the LTIP programs.

LTIP 2010 and LTIP 2011 are based on the following principles, which reflect some of Niscayah’s continuous compensation principles: (i) participants make a personal investment by acquiring shares of series B in Niscayah at market price, (ii) the participants must remain employed by Niscayah during a specified time to receive the award of performance shares, and (iii) the allotment of performance shares under the LTIP 2010 and LTIP 2011 are based on Niscayahs earnings per share for a relevant period. Performance shares in the LTIP 2010 will not be awarded, as the performance requirements for 2010 was not achieved.

THE BOARD’S AUTHORITY TO DECIDE ON THE ACQUISITION OF NISCAYAH’S TREASURY SHARES AND THE TRANSFER OF NISCAYAH’S TREASURY SHARES

To create an opportunity for Niscayah to adjust its capital structure and enable the financing of acquisitions, hedging costs, including social security costs, in connection with the introduction of the performance program, the annual general meeting 2011 authorized the board of directors to, at one or more occasions, but no later than the annual general meeting 2012, take decisions on acquisition and transfer of treasury shares. However, the total number of shares held in treasury may not exceed 10 per cent of the total number of shares of Niscayah. Transfer may deviate from the shareholders preferential rights to the extent of the number of shares that Niscayah holds at the time for the board’s decision. Transfer may be made as payment of all or part of the purchase price of the acquisition of a company or business or part of a company or business, whereby compensation shall correspond to the shares’ estimated market value. Upon such transfer payment may be made in kind or set-off against a claim on Niscayah. Transfer may also be made through sale on NASDAQ OMX, at a price within the prevailing registered price interval. The board may determine other terms of purchase or transfer, which however must be marketable.

DIVIDEND POLICY

The board intends to apply a dividend policy implying that the yearly dividend level – according to Niscayah’s results, financial position and other factors which the board deems relevant – should normally correspond to 40 to 50 per cent of Niscayah’s free cash flow.

The business’ cash flow corresponds to the operating income after amortization, add-back of total depreciation and amortization and acquisition related restructuring costs minus the investments in non-current assets (excluding acquisition of subsidiaries), changes in accounts receivables and changes in other operating capital employed and adjusted for paid financial income and expenses, and paid income tax.

DIVIDEND HISTORY

OTHER INFORMATION

Niscayah has, before the announcement of the offer by Securitas on May 16, 2011, entered into certain arrangements with the purpose of ensuring that the Company has the required support for the process in which the Securitas offer and other potential offers are evaluated and handled as well as in which alternatives are being explored. In addition to engaging an independent valuation expert for a so-called fairness opinion and legal counseling, the arrangements also include a success-based variable compensation for the engaged financial advisor, Lazard, as well as a so-called staying bonus for two key persons in this process, namely the CEO and CFO. These potential additional compensations are considered to, at maximum outcome, be moderate and well below one per cent of Niscayah’s market capitalization prior to the Securitas offer. In case a transaction resulting in change of control is not completed, no such additional compensations will be paid.

SHAREHOLDER AGREEMENTS AND PRE-EMPTION RIGHTS IN RESPECT OF SHARES OF SERIES A

A shareholders’ agreement which includes a first refusal clause at either party’s sale of shares of series A, is concluded between holders of shares of series A. The board of Niscayah is not aware of any other shareholder agreements or other agreements between the shareholders of Niscayah. Niscayah’s shares of series A are subject to a pre-emption clause (Sw. hembudsförbehåll) in accordance with the articles of association.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

According to Niscayah’s articles of association, the board shall consist of not less than five (5) and not more than ten (10) ordinary directors, excluding deputy directors, appointed by the general meeting. Niscayah’s board consists of seven ordinary directors.

Should the company decide to issue warrants or convertible bonds by way of a cash issue or a setoff issue, the shareholders shall have the priority right to subscribe to such warrants as if the shares to which the warrants entitle were issued and the priority right to subscribe to such convertible bonds as if the shares for which the convertible bonds may be exchanged were issued, respectively.

What is stated above shall not entail any restrictions on the possibility to resolve on a cash issue or a set-off issue with deviation from the shareholders priority rights.

As soon as the Central Securities Depository (VPC) has informed the Board of Directors of the transfer of title, the Board of Directors shall immediately inform the acquirer of its obligation to offer the shares for redemption by written notification to the Board of Directors. Such notification shall contain information on the consideration paid for the shares and the acquirer’s conditions for redemption. The acquirer shall hereby evidence his or her acquisition of the shares. Immediately upon receiving a notification of transfer of title, the Board of Directors shall enter this into a special book with details on the date of notification, as set forth in the Companies Act. The Board of Directors shall at the same time notify every individual entitled to redemption whose postal address is known to the company, in writing, of the transfer of title to the shares and inform that claims for redemption shall be submitted to the Board of Directors within two (2) months from the acquirer’s notification of the transfer of title. Claims for redemption submitted within the stipulated time period shall be entered into a special book with details on the date of the claim for redemption, as set forth in the Companies Act.

The redemption price shall be paid within one (1) month from the time when the redemption price was determined, by means of agreement between the parties or by an arbitration award. If, within the stipulated time, no person entitled to redemption would submit a claim for redemption, or if the redemption price would not be paid within the stipulated time, the person who offered the share for redemption shall be entitled to be registered as holder of the share.

§ 13

The shares of the company shall be registered in a CSD register in accordance with the Financial Instruments Accounts Act (1998:1479).

INTRODUCTION

The following is a summary of certain tax consequences of the Offer in Sweden in relation to individuals and limited liability companies (Sw. Aktiebolag) that are, unless otherwise stated, tax resident in Sweden. The summary is based on current legislation and is intended to provide general information only. The summary does not cover situations where shares and warrants are held as current assets in business operations. Furthermore, the summary does not consider special rules that may be applicable when shares and warrants in Niscayah are treated as shares held for business purposes.¹⁾ The tax treatment of each individual shareholder and warrant holder depends in part on the holder’s particular circumstances. Each holder of shares and warrants is advised to consult a tax advisor for information on specific tax consequences that could arise from the Offer, including the applicability and effect of foreign tax legislation and provisions contained in tax treaties for the avoidance of double taxation.

TAX CONSEQUENCES IN RELATION TO THE DISPOSAL OF SHARES IN NISCAYAH

General

A disposal of shares in Niscayah will give rise to a capital gain or a capital loss. The capital gain or loss is computed as the difference between the sales proceeds (reduced by selling expenses) and the tax acquisition value of the shares. The point of disposal for tax purposes normally occurs when there is a binding agreement regarding a transfer of shares between the parties.

When computing the capital gain or loss, the average tax acquisition value for all shares of the same class and type should be applied in accordance with the so-called average method. As regards listed shares, the so-called standard method may however be used as an alternative to the average method. This means that the tax acquisition value may be calculated as 20 per cent of the sales proceeds after deduction of selling expenses.

Taxation of individuals

For individuals, capital gains are taxed in the capital income category (together with e.g. interest income and dividends). The tax rate in the capital income category is 30 per cent.

Capital losses on listed shares, such as the shares in Niscayah, may be fully offset against taxable capital gains on shares (listed as well as unlisted) and listed securities that are taxed as shares, provided that the capital gain is realized in the same year as the capital loss. A capital loss on listed shares which cannot be offset against a capital gain is deductible as to 70 per cent of the loss.

Should a net loss arise in the capital income category in a given year, a reduction is granted of the tax on income from employment and business operations, as well as property tax and municipal estate charges. This tax reduction is granted at 30 per cent of the part of the net loss that does not exceed SEK 100,000 and at 21 per cent of any remaining net loss.

Taxation of limited liability companies

For limited liability companies, all income is taxed as income from business activities at a rate of 26.3 per cent. Capital losses on shares, warrants and other securities can normally only be offset against capital gains on shares, warrants and securities that are taxed as shares. If a company does not have the possibility to offset a capital loss against a capital gain, the capital loss can be offset against another company’s capital gains on shares, warrants and securities that are taxed as shares, provided, inter alia, that the companies can give each other tax deductible group contributions. A capital loss which cannot be offset against capital gains on shares in a given year, can be carried forward without any limitation in time and can be offset against future capital gains on shares, warrants and securities that are taxed as shares. Special rules may apply to certain categories of companies, such as investment funds and investment companies.

TAX CONSEQUENCES IN RELATION TO THE DISPOSAL OF WARRANTS IN NISCAYAH

The disposal of warrants under the Offer gives rise to capital gains taxation. The standard method may not be applied when determining the acquisition cost of non-listed warrants.

For individuals, capital gains are taxed in the capital income category at a rate of 30 per cent. 70 per cent of a capital loss on non-listed warrants is deductible in the income from capital category.

For limited liability companies, capital gains on non-listed warrants are taxed as ordinary business income at a rate of 26.3 per cent. Capital losses on non-listed warrants may be offset only against taxable gains on shares and other securities that are taxed as shares. Such capital losses may, under certain circumstances, also be deductible against capital gains on such securities within the same group of companies provided the requirements for group contributions are met. Capital losses, which have not been utilized within a certain year, may be carried forward and be offset against eligible capital gains in future years without limitation in time.

CERTAIN SWEDISH TAX ISSUES FOR HOLDERS OF SHARES AND WARRANTS THAT ARE NOT TAX RESIDENT IN SWEDEN

Holders of shares and warrants in Niscayah that are not tax resident in Sweden will normally not be subject to capital gains taxation in Sweden on the disposal of shares and warrants (see below for certain exceptions). Such holders may however be subject to taxation in their state of residence. Such holders should therefore consult their own tax advisors in order to determine the tax consequences that could arise as a result of the Offer.

Individuals not tax resident in Sweden could be subject to capital gains taxation in Sweden upon the disposal of Swedish shares and warrants issued by Swedish companies if they have been residents in Sweden or have habitually resided in Sweden at any time during the calendar year of disposal or the ten calendar years preceding the year of disposal. In a number of cases though, the application of this rule is limited by an applicable tax treaty. However, it should be noted that the effect of applicable tax treaties on Swedish taxation of capital gains on shares and warrants is to some extent uncertain.

A limited liability company not tax resident in Sweden could be subject to capital gains taxation in Sweden if, inter alia, the company has a permanent establishment in Sweden to which the disposed shares and warrants are attributable.
