The AGM authorized the Board of Directors to decide, on one or more occasion during the period up to the next Annual General Meeting, on a new issue of B shares corresponding at the most to a total of 10 per cent of the registered share capital at the time of the authorization, with or without preferential rights for current shareholders.

The AGM authorized the Board of Directors, during the period up to the next Annual General Meeting:

- to decide to acquire, on NASDAQ Stockholm AB or through an acquisition offer aimed at all shareholders or holders of shares of a particular class, a maximum number of shares so that the company's holding of its own shares after the acquisition does not exceed one tenth of all shares in the Company.

The shares may be acquired on NASDAQ Stockholm AB at a price within the price interval registered at any given time and, in the case of acquisition through an acquisition offer, at a price equivalent to the lowest stock market price at the time of the offer with a maximum upward deviation of 30%. Shares may only be acquired for compensation in cash,

- to decide to transfer, on NASDAQ Stockholm AB or in connection with, for example, a corporate acquisition and with or without any deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, a maximum of all the company's own shares held by the company on NASDAQ Stockholm AB at a price within the price interval registered at any given time and, in the case of a sale by other means, at a price equivalent to the stock market price of the shares at the time of the transfer with any deviation that the Board of Directors may deem appropriate.

The AGM approved the transfer of 50 percent of shares in the by Peab fully owned subsidiary Peab FU Linné AB with the subsidiaries Annehem Hyllie Point 3 AB and Annehem Hyllie Point 4 AB to Volito Fastigheter AB. Peab FU Linné AB and subsidiaries own the properties Värdshuset 5 and Värdshuset 4 containing a hotel and development rights for offices. The properties are situated at Hyllie Stationstorg in Malmö, Sweden.

The purchase price is based on an underlying property value of SEK 777 million, of which SEK 565 million are related to Värdshuset 5 (the hotel) and SEK 212 million to Värdshuset 4 (development rights for offices etc.).

Karl-Axel Granlund is a member of the Board of Directors in Peab AB and also indirectly the principle owner of Volito AB and therefore indirectly controls Volito Fastigheter AB. The Board of Directors therefore considers the transfer a transaction with related parties which according to the Leo Law and general good practice on the stock market should be submitted to the Annual General Meeting for approval with special majority.

Ulf Liljedahl, Göran Grosskopf, Mats Rasmussen and Malte Åkerström were reelected to the Nominating Committee. Ulf Liljedahl was elected Chairman.

The AGM adopted the Board’s proposed remuneration policy.

All AGM decisions were passed with the required majority.
