Extraordinary General Meeting 2009

November 16, 2009 at 12:00 AM EST
Company announcement No 31/2009
16 November 2009

 

On Monday 16 November 2009, at 16:30 Royal Unibrew A/S held an Extraordinary
General Meeting in Odense Congress Center, Ørbækvej 350, 5220 Odense SØ,
Denmark. 
 1.	Authorisation of the Supervisory Board to increase capital  
In continuation of the company announcement No 30/2009 of today the Supervisory
Board changed its proposal to request for authorisation to issue up to a
nominal amount of DKK 56,000,000 new shares and not as stated in the notice for
the Extraordinary General Meeting a nominal amount of DKK 120,000,000 new
shares. 

The changed proposal for resolution was adopted by the Extraordinary General
Meeting so that the authorisation of the Supervisory Board under Article 7 of
the Articles of Association be replaced by a new authorisation of the
Supervisory Board to increase the Company's capital in connection with a cash
rights issue. The existing authorisation under Article 7 of the Articles of
Association, which expired on 1 May 2009, is thus to be deleted. 
 Article 7 of the Articles of Association thus reads as follows: 	
”The Supervisory Board shall be authorised to increase the Company's share
capital on one or several occasions by up to a nominal amount of DKK 56,000,000
before 1 July 2010. 

In the event of share capital increases paid in cash, the existing shareholders
shall have a pre-emptive right to subscribe for the new shares. 

The shares shall be issued to bearer, but may be registered in the name of the
holder. The new shares shall carry a right to receive dividends and other
rights as of the date determined by the Supervisory Board; not later, however,
than as of the financial year following the adoption of the capital increase.
The transferability of the new shares shall be subject to no restrictions. The
shares are negotiable securities and no shareholder can be required to have
them redeemed. The shares shall, in every respect, carry the same rights
including the same pre-emptive subscription right upon capital increases as the
existing shares. 

The Supervisory Board shall be authorised to make any amendment to the Articles
required in consequence of the capital increase.” 

2.	Authorisation of the Chairman of the meeting 
The General meeting adopted the resolution proposed by the Supervisory Board
that the General 
Meeting authorise the Chairman of the meeting to register registrable
resolutions made by the 

General Meeting with the Danish Commerce and Companies Agency and to make any
adjustments to the documents prepared in relation to the said resolutions that
the Danish Commerce and Companies Agency may require in order to effect the
registration of the resolutions. 
 
 
Yours sincerely,
Royal Unibrew A/S
 
The Supervisory Board
