§ 1

The name of the company is Peab AB (publ). The company is public.

§ 2

The Board of Directors shall have its registered office in Båstad Municipality in Skåne County.

§ 3

The company shall run construction contract business and the trade and management of real and personal property such as buildings, shares and other securities, run leasing and/or rental of construction machines and transportation vehicles as well as business compatible with these lines of business.

§ 4

The company's share capital shall be minimum SEK 1,000 million and maximum SEK 4,000 million. The number of shares shall be at least 160,000,000 and at most 640,000,000. The shares shall comprise A shares with ten votes per share which may be issued to a maximum limit of 80 million shares and B shares with one vote per share which may be issued to a maximum limit of 560 million shares.

If the company through a cash or non-cash issue should issue new shares, series A and series B, holders of series A and B shares shall have the preferential right to subscribe to new shares of the same type in proportion to the number of shares the holder already owns (primary preferential right). Shares which are not subscribed to with primary preferential right shall be offered to all shareholders for subscription (subsidiary preferential right). If shares offered in this way are not sufficient to cover subsidiary subscription, the shares shall be divided between the subscribers in proportion to the number of shares held by the subscribers and where this is not possible by the drawing of lots.

If the company resolves to issue only A series or B series shares by cash or non-cash issue, all holders irrespective of whether they hold series A or B shares shall have the preferential right to subscribe to the new shares in proportion to the number of shares they already own.

If the company decides through a cash or non-cash issue to issue options or convertible debentures, the shareholders shall have preferential rights to subscribe to options in a similar manner to the rights they enjoy upon the issue of shares which may be issued as a result of option rights and the right to subscribe to convertible debentures as if the issue involved the shares which the convertible debentures will be exchanged for.

The provision set out above shall not in any way limit the option to adopt a resolution on a cash or non-cash issue that departs from the preferential right of the shareholders.

On increasing the share capital by bonus issue, new shares of each type shall be issued in proportion to the number of shares of the same type already in existence. Therefore, old shares of a certain type shall
