The increase in cash flow after changes in working capital is attributableto a decrease in inventory of SEK 50 million in 2010 compared to an increase in inventory of SEK 1,945 million in 2009, or achange of SEK 1,995 million. In both 2010 and 2009, oil prices increased, but in 2010 the effects of this increase were offsetby a decrease in volume of crude oil and oil products. The increase in cash flow from operating activities after changes inworking capital is also attributable to an increase in liabilities in 2010 of SEK 2,263 million compared to an increase of SEK877 million in 2009, or a change of SEK 1,386 million. The increase in liabilities in 2010 is mainly attributable to largeacquisitions of crude oil made in December 2010 to return to normal purchasing levels following the completion of plannedmaintenance at <strong>Preem</strong>raff Lysekil, and the positive impact on cash flows for the fourth quarter is expected to be reversed forthe first quarter of 2011.

The 2007 Notes were repaid at the amount of SEK 6,946 million and the Existing Notes andSubordinated Notes amounted to SEK 5,087 million, or a decrease of SEK 1,859 million.

Adjustments for non-cash items was negative SEK725 million in 2009 compared to positive SEK 4,398 million in 2008, or a change of SEK 5,123 million.

In addition, the reversal in 2009 of the write-down in our inventory for 2008 had a negative effect onadjustment of non-cash items of SEK 1,098 million in 2009 compared to a positive effect of SEK 1,098 million for 2008, atotal change of SEK 2,196 million.
