Authorization for the Board of Directors to resolve upon issues of shares, warrants and/or convertible instruments
The Annual General Meeting resolved to authorize the Board of Directors to, on one or several occasions until the next Annual General Meeting, with or without preferential rights for the shareholders, resolve upon issues of shares, warrants and/or convertible instruments. The total number of shares that may be issued under the authorization (including any new shares following exercise or conversion of warrants or convertible instruments issued under the authorization) may correspond to an increase of the share capital by no more than ten percent at the time the authorization is used for the first time. Resolutions by support of the authorization may include provisions on non-cash, set-off or cash payment.
The purpose of the authorization and the reasons for any deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is that issues should be able to take place in order to increase the company’s financial flexibility and the Board of Director’s room for maneuver. To the extent than an issue by support of the authorization takes place with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, the issue shall take place on market terms.
