Reduction of capital and cancellation of treasury shares, amendment of Articles of Association

At the Annual General Meeting of Royal Unibrew A/S on 28 April 2008, it was
decided to re-duce the Company's share capital by a nominal amount of DKK
3,000,000 to a nominal amount of DKK 56,000,000 by cancellation of 300,000
treasury shares of a nominal value of DKK 10 each. 

Pursuant to section 46(1) of the Danish Companies Act, a statutory notice of 3
months was given to creditors on 29 April 2008. Accordingly, the period of
statutory notice ended on 29 July 2008. Having verified that the conditions for
realising the reduction have been met, the Supervi-sory Board decided on 25
August 2008 to realise the reduction of capital, of which the Danish Commerce
and Companies Agency has been notified. As a result of the reduction of
capital, the Company's Articles of Association have been changed as regards the
amount of the share capi-tal. 

Following the reduction of capital, Royal Unibrew A/S holds 106,674 treasury
shares corre-sponding to 1.9% of the share capital following the reduction. 

This announcement is made pursuant to section 27 of the Danish Securities
Trading Act and the disclosure obligations of issuers of shares on NASDAQ OMX
Nordic Exchange Copenhagen. 


Yours sincerely
