New capital structure after completion of redemption offer in Intrum Justitia

The Extra General Meeting’s resolution on 16 June 2005 to redeem 7,029,353 shares with a payment of SEK 84 per share, based on the resolution of the Annual General Meeting regarding the implementation of a redemption offer, has previously been registered and executed. The procedure entailed that a total sum of SEK 590,465,652 was distributed to the company’s shareholders, whereby the company’s share capital was reduced by SEK 140,587.06 and the company’s share premium reserve was reduced by SEK 590,325,064.94. Further, in accordance with the resolution of the General Meeting, the 7,029,353 shares of series C, the Extra General Meeting on 16 June 2005 resolved to issue to Svenska Handels¬banken in order to reduce the time required for completion of the reductions, have now been redeemed at a value of SEK 84 per share (of which SEK 0.02 corresponds to the nominal value and SEK 83.98 to a share premium) adjusted with an interest rate factor. At the same time the company’s share capital is reduced by SEK 140,587.06 and the company’s share premium reserve is reduced by SEK 590,325,064.94. The execution of the resolutions by the General Meeting on the decrease of the Company’s share capital through redemption of the newly issued shares of series C and the reduction of the share premium reserve requires court approval in accordance with the provisions of the Swedish Companies’ Act. Such approval has now been obtained and the decisions have been registered by the Swedish Companies Registration Office. After the reduction, Intrum Justitia AB’s share capital amounts to SEK 1,559,125.02, distributed on 77,956,251 ordinary shares.
