Stanley Black & Decker Announces All Conditions For Completion Of Its Recommended All-Cash Offer To Acquire Niscayah Have Been Satisfied And The Offer Will Be Completed

New Britain, Connecticut, September 2, 2011

• The Shares Tendered In The Offer, Together With The Shares Acquired Outside Of The Offer, Represent Approximately 94.9% Of The Outstanding Shares In Niscayah (On A Fully Diluted Basis)

• All Conditions For Completion Of The Offer Have Been Satisfied: The Offer Is Declared Unconditional And Will Be Completed

• Settlement Is Expected To Commence On September 9, 2011

• The Acceptance Period Is Extended Up To And Including September 23, 2011, In Order To Provide Shareholders And/Or Warrant Holders That Have Not Yet Submitted Their Acceptances The Opportunity To Accept The Offer

Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. (NYSE: SWK) (“Stanley Black & Decker”) announced today that all of the conditions for completion of its recommended all-cash offer, through a tender offer by its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary SBD Holding AB (“SBD Holding”), to acquire all shares and warrants in Niscayah Group AB (publ) (OMX: NISC) (“Niscayah”), for SEK 18.00 per share and SEK 0.05 per warrant in cash (the “Offer”), have been satisfied. Accordingly, SBD Holding has declared the Offer unconditional in all respects and will complete the Offer.

For shareholders and/or warrant holders that have accepted the Offer during the original acceptance period ending September 1, 2011, settlement is expected to commence, as previously communicated, on September 9, 2011.

In order to provide shareholders and/or warrant holders that have not yet submitted their acceptances the opportunity to accept the Offer, SBD Holding extended the acceptance period up to and including September 23, 2011 at 5:00 p.m. (CET) / 11:00 a.m. (ET). For shareholders and/or warrant holders that accept the Offer during the extended acceptance period settlement is expected to occur on or around September 30, 2011. SBD Holding reserves the right to further extend the acceptance period, as well as the right to postpone the settlement date.

The shares tendered in the Offer, together with the shares acquired by SBD Holding through purchases outside of the Offer, represent approximately 94.9% of the outstanding shares and approximately 96.4% of the total number of votes in Niscayah (on a fully diluted basis).¹

Upon expiration of the acceptance period on September 1, 2011, the Offer had been accepted by shareholders and/or warrant holders representing 274,264,060 shares and 2,665,900 warrants, representing approximately 74.8% of the outstanding shares and approximately 82.2% of the total votes in Niscayah (on a fully diluted basis).²

When the Offer was announced on June 27, 2011, neither Stanley Black & Decker, nor SBD Holding owned or controlled any shares or warrants in Niscayah. Following the announcement of the Offer, SBD Holding has acquired in total 74,248,433 class B shares of Niscayah, representing approximately 20.1% of the outstanding shares and approximately 14.2% of the total number of votes in Niscayah (on a fully diluted basis)³, at prices not exceeding SEK 18.00, through purchases outside of the Offer.⁴

As SBD Holding holds more than 90% of the shares of Niscayah, SBD Holding intends to initiate a compulsory acquisition procedure under the Swedish Companies Act to acquire all remaining shares in Niscayah. SBD Holding also intends to act to have the class B share in Niscayah delisted from NASDAQ OMX Stockholm.
