STATES, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, JAPAN OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION, IN WHICH THE

Fastighets AB Balder (publ) (“Balder”) has, based on the authorization granted
by Balder’s Annual General Meeting on 10 May 2016, resolved to carry out a
direct share issue of 3,00,633 Class B ordinary shares at a subscription price
of SEK 230 per share (the “Issue”). Through the Issue, Balder will receive
proceeds amounting to approximately SEK 690 million. The subscription price in
the Issue has been determined through a so-called “accelerated book-building”
procedure led by Carnegie Investment Bank. Subscribers in the Issue are a wide
range of Swedish and international institutional investors. The reason for
deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights is to diversify the
shareholder base and at the same time raise capital in a time efficient manner,
in immediate connection with the announcement of the acquisition of all the
properties in the I.A Hedin Fastighet AB group.

The Issue result in a dilution of approximately 1.7 per cent in relation to the
number of existing ordinary shares in in Balder through an increase in the
number of outstanding shares to 175,397,485 (divided into 11,229,432 Class A
shares and 164,168,053 Class B shares). Through the set-off issue in connection
with the closing of the acquisition of all the properties in the I.A Hedin
Fastighet AB group, which is planned to occur on 30 November 2016, the number of
Class B ordinary shares will increase with 4,602,515 and hereafter together with
the Class B shares from the Issue amount to 168,770,568 and the total number of
ordinary shares outstanding will amount to 180,000,000. In addition, Balder has
10,000,000 preference shares outstanding.

In order to facilitate the delivery of shares to the investors in the Issue,
Erik Selin Fastigheter AB will lend 3,000,633 Class B shares to Carnegie
Investment Bank AB. The shares will be returned after the Issue has been
registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
