Cancellation of the Share Option Programme


Company announcement No 12/2009
31 March 2009




The Supervisory Board of Royal Unibrew has today decided to cancel the Group's
Share Option programme for 2008-2010 for the Executive Board and other
Executive members with immedi-ate effect. The decision is based on the fact
that the assumptions existing at the time of the set-up of the share option
programme in spring of 2008 must now be considered to have failed as a
consequence of the Company's share price development. 

As a consequence of the cancellation the Supervisory Board has decided to pay
in total DKK 2.5 million to 2 Executive Board members and to 15 selected
executives, who were covered by the share option programme in question. 

The amount to be allocated in the Q1 2009 accounts will have no impact on the
previous an-nounced expectations to the results for 2009 (cf. company
announcement no 02/2009). 

Please direct any questions to me at telephone +45 39 55 97 00.


Yours sincerely
Royal Unibrew A/S


Steen Weirsøe
Chairman of the Supervisory Board
