In light of the decision by the Public Health Agency of Sweden to raise the risk level for infectivity relating to the new covid-19 coronavirus in Sweden, Hufvudstaden has decided to take certain precautions in relation to the Annual General Meeting 2020. The aim is to reduce the risk of infectivity by holding a short and efficient meeting with limited interaction, by taking among other things the following measures:

· Hufvudstaden's employees who, during the 14 days prior to the Annual General Meeting, have visited risk areas will not attend the meeting. Shareholders and their representatives are kindly asked to take corresponding precautionary measures.
 
· No food or refreshments will be served.
 
· The scheduled presentations will be limited in time to a few minutes.
 
· The participation of members of the Board and the Group Management will be limited.

More detailed information about the above described precautionary measures is available on the company's webpage. Hufvudstaden is closely monitoring the development of events and will, if necessary, post updated information on the website prior to the Annual General Meeting.
