LEMMINKÄINEN ACQUIRES NEW RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT IN ST. PETERSBURG

Lemminkäinen has acquired a residential development currently under
construction in Ozerki, a district in the north of St Petersburg. The site will
comprise some 200 apartments with a combined floor area of 15,000 m2 as well as
600 m2 of commercial premises. The construction work will be completed in
autumn 2011 and sales of housing units will commence in the autumn of this
year. 

In accordance with its strategy Lemminkäinen is seeking to exploit the growth
of Russia's construction markets. The Company aims to increase the volume of
its own residential and non-residential building production in parallel with
its traditional contracting business. 

This new development will complement Lemminkäinen's offering of housing to St.
Petersburg's middle-class home buyers. Lemminkäinen Group's international
building construction company, Lemminkäinen Talo Oy International, will be
responsible for the construction works.
