Re 9.1
The proposed resolution on the reduction of the Company's share capital by nominally DKK 4,500,000 by cancellation of a nominal amount of 4,500,000 treasury shares of DKK 1 as well as the amendment of Article 4.1 was adopted. The 4,500,000 shares has been acquired through buyback programmes by payment of DKK 3,745,890,000 to the effect that in addition to the nominal amount of DKK 4,500,000 an amount of DKK 3,741,390,000 has been distributed. Under section 188 of the Danish Companies Act it is stated that the purpose of the reduction is to cancel a part of the Company's portfolio of treasury shares. According to the Danish Business Authority's practice, this purpose may be compared to a capital reduction to be distributed to the shareholders, see section 188(1)(ii) of the Danish Companies Act.
Re 9.2
The proposed authority to the Board for the period until 10 March 2027 to let the Company buy back own shares up to an aggregate nominal value of 10% of the Company's share capital was granted, provided that the Company's holding of treasury shares does not at any time exceed 10% of the Company's share capital and provided that the purchase price paid in connection with acquisition of treasury shares does not diverge from the price quoted on Nasdaq Copenhagen at the time of acquisition by more than 10%.
Re 9.3
Authorisation was granted to the chair of the Meeting, attorney Pernille Høstrup Dalhoff, to make such amendments and additions to the resolutions passed by the Meeting and to file the application for registration with the Danish Business Authority as the Authority may require for registration.
Following the Meeting the Board elected its officers with Peter A. Ruzicka as Chair and Christian Frigast as Deputy Chair.
