Saab ordered to reimburse following a dispute regarding the Danish DACCIS system


The Danish Supreme Court has ordered defence and security company Saab to repay
about MDKK 187 (about MSEK 225), plus interest costs, totalling about MDKK 243
(about MSEK 293), to the Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation
(DALO) and to compensate DALO’s court costs. The DACCIS dispute originates from
a terminated contract concerning the command and control system DACCIS.
The amount to be paid by Saab includes repayment of the damages awarded by the
Maritime andCommercial Courtin 2010, payments received under the DACCIS
contract, interest and court costs. The payment will impact earnings in the
second quarter of 2013.

DACCIS is a command and control system for the Danish Army developed to create
common situational awareness and to monitor and lead forces. The development of
DACCIS was started in 1998 by Maersk Data Defence – acquired by Saab on 1
January 2007 – and work with the current version began in 2005. According to
DALO, DACCIS did not fulfill the agreed requirements and DALO therefore
terminated the contract and claimed a refund of monies paid. The DACCIS dispute
was referred to the Maritime andCommercial CourtinCopenhagen, and in 2010 the
Maritime andCommercial Courtrendered a verdict in Saab's favour. DALO appealed
the verdict at the Supreme Court.

Saab's view has always been that termination of the DACCIS contract was
unjustified.

The Supreme Court's judgement cannot be appealed.
