Skanska is selling the Gångaren 18 property in Stockholm for SEK 495 M to AFA
Sjukförsäkringsaktiebolag. The capital gain amounts to about SEK 160 M and is
being recognized in the second quarter of 2008. Occupancy is in June 2008.

The building, comprising approximately 10,500 square meters of office space and
additional parking, was completed at Lindhagensterrassen on Kungsholmen in
spring 2007. Tenants include Storstockholms Lokaltrafik (Stockholm
Transport-SL), Stockholm County Council and Inspecta.

The Gångaren 18 property is one of Skanska's commercial development projects at
Lindhagensterrassen. Since 1996, Skanska has developed about 140,000 square
meters of commercial properties in the area and invested about SEK 5 billion.
Other tenants in the area include Electrolux, Hi3G and Skandia. Skanska is also
developing residential projects at Lindhagensterrassen.

“This is the third transaction with Skanska at Lindhagensterrassen. We believe
the area will continue to develop favorably and, consequently, that this is a
solid investment. Naturally, it is also a plus both for us as owners and for our
tenants that Skanska can offer such highly energy-efficient buildings,” says
Tomas Ingemarsson, Property Manager, AFA Försäkring.

“We are pleased about the trust AFA has shown in us through again selecting one
of our projects. We are also proud to have developed a section of the city that
previously had a suburban character into one of Stockholm's most attractive
office and residential areas. It is a good example of our capabilities as a City
Builder,” says Jan Odelstam, President, Skanska Properties Stockholm.
