SIX AB and Telekurs Financial extend collaboration

SIX and Telekurs Financial extend the cooperation agreement to cover the full
range of Telekurs Financial products in the Nordics and Baltics. Telekurs
Financial is a fully owned subsidiary of Swiss Financial Market Services Ltd
(SFMS) and owner of 54.7% of the shares in SIX AB (publ). At the same time SIX
has entered into a license agreement with SFMS , granting it an exclusive right
to use the SIX brand and
company name outside the Nordic and Baltic countries.

Effective January 1 2008, SIX took over the responsibility for sales and support
of Telekurs Financial products for securities processing in the Nordics from the
Danish Vaerdipapircentralen (“VP”).This cooperation is now extended to cover the
complete range of Telekurs Financial products in the Nordics and Baltics. This
means that SIX can offer a wide selection of information, systems and services
for all types of clients in the Nordic and Baltic region. SIX customers comprise
Banks,Corporates, financial institutions and government authorities.

Marc Carletti, CEO of Telekurs Financial and chairman of the SIX AB Board
comments: “Our clients select Telekurs to get comprehensive, structured and
correct information in support for the complete processing chain - from front to
back office. With the new cooperation agreement with SIX, we can extend our
offering and increase the freedom of choice for clients in the Nordics and
Baltics. Also, we can combine the strength of a global provider with local
expertise and solutions. This gives us a great advantage in the market.”

The initial term of the license agreement is five years; it is subject to
approval of an upcoming shareholder meeting. “The brand licensing can benefit
our business in many ways”, says Johan Rost, CEO of SIX AB. “Most importantly,
it can increase our brand's global awareness and thus leverage the benefit of
being part of an international organization.”
