Holmen AGM – Dividend of SEK 9 per share


Holmen’s AGM, held on Wednesday 10 April, resolved in favour of paying a
dividend of SEK 9 per share for the 2012 financial year. This decision means an
increase in dividend of SEK 1 per share compared to the previous year.

The AGM re-elected Fredrik Lundberg, Carl Bennet, Magnus Hall, Lars G Josefsson,
Carl Kempe, Louise Lindh, Ulf Lundahl and Göran Lundin to the Board. Fredrik
Lundberg was re-elected Chairman of the Board.

KPMG AB was re-elected as company auditors. George Pettersson, authorised public
accountant, has been appointed principal auditor.

The AGM resolved in favour of mandating the Board for the period until the next
AGM to make decisions to buy back the company’s own shares via the stock market.
Acquisitions may be made of up to so many Class B shares that the company’s own
shareholding does not exceed 10 per cent of all shares in the company at any
time. The Board was also mandated to make decisions to use bought-back shares as
settlement for acquisitions or to finance such acquisitions. The 2012 AGM gave
the Board a corresponding mandate.

The address to the AGM by Magnus Hall, President and CEO, is available on our
website www.holmen.com
