Unibrew entered into a conditional agreement with the brewery Cerveceria
Nacional Dominicana (CND) regarding the sale of Royal Unibrew's shares in the

Vincent to CND. 

This sale has been finalised today cf. also Company announcement 4/2010 of 12

interest-bearing debt by almost DKK 200 million. The net selling price for the
shares is in line with their book value. 

The sale will reduce the Company's revenue by approximately DKK 150 million and

revenue is expected to amount to approximately DKK 130 million, while EBITDA is
estimated to be reduced by DKK 25 million. 

The divested breweries will continue to produce and sell Royal Unibrew's
premium brand within malt drinks, “Vitamalt”, on license and a license
agreement has been entered into with CND for the production and sale of
Vitamalt in the Dominican Republic.
