Increase of share capital through a bonus issue: The company's articles of
association are amended in order to permit a capital increase through a bonus
issue. The limits for the share capital were amended to be not less than
5,000,000 Euro and not more than 20,000,000 Euro. The share capital of the
company increases with 9,873,416 Euro (transfer from unrestricted equity)
resulting in a share capital of 10,000,000 Euro. No new shares will be issued. 

Share based incentive programme: A performance share programme 2007 will be
implemented - based on no more than a total of 1,250,000 shares (including the
shares that may be necessary in order to cover social costs). The programme will
comprise about 25 senior executives within the group, and its term will be three
years. Participants will be given the opportunity after a qualification period
to without consideration receive allotments of shares. Such allotment of shares
is conditional upon certain financial targets - these targets include a minimum
level which must be achieved in order for any allotment to occur; as well as a
maximum level in excess of which no additional allotment will occur. 

Acquisitions and transfers may only be effected on the SSE. No more than 930,000
shares may be acquired to secure delivery of shares to participants in the
programme. And no more than 320,000 shares may be acquired and transferred to
cover social security costs pertaining to the programme. 

Share buy back: The Board of Directors was authorised until the AGM 2008 to
decide on acquisitions of the company's shares on the SSE. Shares may be
acquired to the extent that the company's holding of its own shares following
the acquisition at the most reaches one-tenth of all shares in the company. 

Minutes from the Annual General Meeting will be published at www.rezidor.com
