Re. item 10a. Proposal to amend article 6.6.3, no. 9, of the Company’s articles of association
The Board of Directors proposes to amend article 6.6.3, no. 9, of the Company’s articles of association by deleting “and determination of remuneration for the auditor” so article 6.6.3, no. 9, following this amendment will read “Election of auditor.”
The proposed change is of an editorial and clarifying nature, as it is not a Danish requirement that the general meeting approves the auditor’s remuneration, and will not otherwise change the substance of the articles of association. The draft articles of association enclosed as Schedule 3 to this notice include the proposed change.
Re. item 10b i). Proposal to renew the Board of Directors’ authorization to increase the share capital of the Company
The Board of Directors proposes that the general meeting in the period until 30 April 2027 authorises the Board of Directors to increase the share capital in the Company without pre-emption rights for the existing shareholders in one or more issues by up to a nominal amount of EUR 117,509.70 corresponding to 20% of the Company’s share capital and a maximum dilution of 20% of the outstanding share capital on a non-diluted basis. The capital increase(s) shall take place at market price and may be completed against cash payment, by contribution in kind or by conversion of debt.
For the issuance of shares on the basis of the above authorisation the following shall apply:
1. Partial payment of the subscription amount is not permitted.
2. The new shares will be issued without pre-emption rights for existing shareholders, and the pre-emption rights relating to the new shares will not be restricted in respect of future capital increases other than as provided for in the Company’s articles of association.
3. There are no restrictions on the transferability of the shares. No shareholder is obliged to have his or her shares redeemed in full or in part.
4. The new shares will be issued through VP Securities A/S (Euronext Securities Copenhagen) and will (in the discretion of the Board of Directors) be admitted to trading and official listing on Nasdaq Copenhagen and/or Nasdaq Stockholm.
5. The new shares will be issued in the name of the holder and will be negotiable instruments.
It is proposed that the authorisation to increase the share capital without pre-emption rights will replace the lapsed authorisation in section 4.1 in the articles of association as set out in the draft new articles of association enclosed as Schedule 3 to this notice.
The purpose of the authorisation is to make it possible for the Company to (i) settle part of the purchase price and/or earn-out payments related to acquisitions (ii) finance future acquisitions of the Company, (iii) procure capital in the future and (iv) cover share delivery obligations relating to long-term incentive (LTI) programs.
Re. item 10b ii). Proposal to renew the Board of Directors’ authorization to acquire treasury shares
It is proposed to authorise the Board of Directors to pass a resolution on acquisition of treasury shares on the following terms:
1. The Company may acquire up to nominally EUR 58,754.85 treasury shares corresponding to 10% of the Company’s share capital in the period until the annual general meeting to be held in 2027.
2. Acquisitions of treasury shares shall be made (in the discretion of the Board of Directors) on Nasdaq Copenhagen and/or Nasdaq Stockholm (the “Exchange”) at a price per share within the band of prices (spread) applying on the Exchange, or to the extent the Company assigns a member of the Exchange to accumulate a certain amount of the Company’s shares by proprietary trading during a certain time period on the day of delivery pay the volume weighted average price for the market as a whole for such period of time, even if the volume weighted average price falls outside the range of prices on the day of delivery.
All acquisitions of treasury shares shall be made in accordance with the applicable rules at the Exchange.
It is proposed that the authorisation to the Board of Directors to acquire treasury shares will replace the lapsed authorisation in section 4.2 in the articles of association as set out in the draft articles of association, enclosed as Schedule 3 to this notice.
Re. item 10b iii). Proposal to renew the Board of Directors’ authorizations to increase the share capital of the Company by issue of convertible loan instruments
The Board of Directors proposes that the general meeting in the period until 30 April 2027 authorises the Board of Directors to raise funds against issuance of convertible loan instruments in one or more issues with a right for the lender(s) to convert the loan(s) into shares in the Company with a nominal value of up to EUR 58,754.85, corresponding to 10% of the Company’s share capital and a maximum dilution of 10% of the outstanding share capital on a non-diluted basis. Such issuance of convertible loan instruments shall take place without pre-emptive rights for the existing shareholders.
Convertible loans may be raised in EUR or the equivalent in foreign currency computed at the applicable rate of exchange on the day the loan is issued. The Board of Directors is also authorised to effect the consequential increase of the Company’s share capital.
The detailed terms and conditions governing the convertible loan instruments are determined by the Board of Directors, including loan terms, conversion price, conditions and windows for conversion of the loans as well as the holder's legal position in case of capital increase, capital decrease, issuance of new convertible loans, dissolution, merger or demerger of the Company before the expiry of the right of conversion.
For the issuance of shares on the basis of the above authorisation the following shall apply:
1. Partial payment of the subscription amount is not permitted.
2. The new shares will be without pre-emption rights for existing shareholders, and the pre-emption rights relating to the new shares will not be restricted in respect of future capital increases other than as provided for in the Company’s articles of association.
3. There are no restrictions on the transferability of the shares. No shareholder is obliged to have his or her shares redeemed in full or in part.
4. The new shares will be issued through VP Securities A/S (Euronext Securities Copenhagen) and will (in the discretion of the Board of Directors) be admitted to trading and official listing on Nasdaq Copenhagen and/or Nasdaq Stockholm.
5. The new shares will be issued in the name of the holder and will be negotiable instruments.
The Board of Directors is authorised to make the necessary amendments to the articles of association in connection with the capital increase(s) being effected.
It is proposed that the authorisation to the Board of Directors to increase the share capital of the Company issue of convertible loan instruments will replace the lapsed authorisation in section 4.3 in the articles of association as set out in the draft articles of association, enclosed as Schedule 3 to this notice.
The purpose of the authorisation is to make it possible for the Company to (i) finance future M&A activities in whole or in part by issuance of convertible loan instruments and (ii) make it possible to procure capital in the future.
Re. item 11. Proposal on authorisation to the Chair of the meeting.
It is proposed to authorise the Chair of the meeting with full power of subrogation to apply for registration of the resolutions passed and to make any such amendments thereto as may be required or requested by the Danish Business Authority or any other public authority as a condition for such registration or approval.
