At the end of the registration period on 18 June 2009 11,252,834 shares had been tendered to the offer, which corresponds to 90.9 percent of the votes and capital in Annehem Fastigheter. Of the shareholders who have accepted the offer, those representing 93.3 percent of shares tendered to the offer have chosen to receive shares in Peab as payment. Peab’s holding in Annehem Fastigheter is a total of 12,102,834 shares, which corresponds to 97.8 percent of the votes and capital. Peab has not purchased any shares in Annehem Fastigheter outside of the offer and therefore does not own any other shares in Annehem Fastigheter except those tendered to the offer and those owned at the time the offer was made public. At this point Peab has chosen to follow through on its offer to shareholders in Annehem Fastigheter. All the follow through terms in the offer document have been met. The registration period has been extended to 19 August 2009 in order to make it possible for shareholders that have not yet done so to participate in the offer. Those who choose not to accept the offer should note that liquidity in Annehem Fastigheter will be extremely limited in the future. Since Peab holds more than more than 90 percent of the shares in Annehem Fastigheter, Peab will shortly request compulsory purchase of the rest of the shares in Annehem Fastigheter as well as move to unlist the Annehem Fastigheter share on the NASDAQ OMX First North. For those who have accepted the offer during the normal registration period reporting settlement will take place according to previous communications, in other words around 1 July 2009. For those who accept the offer under the extension reporting settlement will take place around 1 September 2009. On 14 May 2009 Peab’s Annual General Meeting gave the Board authorisation to, for the period until the next Annual General Meeting, transfer, at the most, all own shares the company holds at any particular time. Based on this authorisation Peab’s Board has on 24 June 2009 decided to transfer 7,762,296 B shares to the shareholders in Annehem Fastigheter which have accepted the offer and as payment chosen to receive shares in Peab. According to the terms of the offer Peab will transfer 0.6946 Peab B shares for each share Peab acquires in Annehem Fastigheter. After the transfer Peab’s holding of own shares will amount to 5,054,504 B shares corresponding to 1.7 percent of the number of registered shares, which are in total 296,049,730.
