At Peab’s annual general meeting on May 16, 2007 it was resolved to approve the proposal by the board of directors for Peab AB to issue a convertible debenture loan for a total nominal value of SEK 600 million, which can be converted to shares in the B series, through the issue of 12 000 000 convertibles, with a maturity date from December 1, 2007 to November 30, 2012 (Peab Convertibles 2007/2012).
The right to subscribe to convertibles, with a departure from the preferential rights of shareholders, devolves on a wholly-owned subsidiary to Peab AB, with the right and obligation of the subsidiary to offer employees in the Peab AB Group and Peab Industri AB Group the opportunity to acquire the convertibles as of November 26, 2007 to December 12, 2007.
Peab’s subsidiary has 1 December 2007 subscribed to Peab Convertibles 2007/2012 to an amount of SEK 598 400 000, corresponding to 8 800 000 new convertibles at a conversion price amounting to SEK 68 . If all the convertibles are converted to shares the dilution will be 5.05 per cent of the share capital and 2.51 per cent of the votes, based on the number of shares registered today. The convertible interest, which will be finally determined on December 1, will be based on the 5-year swap interest as of December 1, 2007, with a margin of 0.75 per cent and it has been established to 5.44 per cent.
Each convertible may during the period December 1-15, 2010 to December 1-15, 2011, as well as during the period September 16-30, 2012, be converted to a share in the B series.
