In accordance with the Board’s proposal, the Annual General Meeting decided to initiate a long-term incentive plan (“The Performance Based Share Program 2014”) as well as transfer of own shares on account of this Program.

The General Annual Meeting resolved to increase the number of shares in AB Fagerhult (the "Company") by splitting each share into three shares (3:1 split), in order to achieve an increased share trading.
The record date at Euroclear Sweden AB for the implementation of the split, will be on the 27th of May 2014. After the split, the number of shares in the Company will increase from 12,850,000 to 38,550,000, of which all shall have equal rights.
