Company announcement no. 13-2024

April 12, 2024

The board of directors of Audientes A/S  ("Company"), CVR No. 36 04 76 31, hereby give notice for the extraordinary general meeting to be convened on Monday, April 29, 2024 at 1:00 pm (13:00 CEST)

The annual general meeting will be held at the Company's registered address at:

Teknikerbyen 5, 2., Søllerød, 2830 Virum, Denmark.

Background

As communicated in the Company Announcement no. 12-2024, the management and board of directors are optimizing the Company's capital structure to ensure it is possible to secure additional funding from the contemplated new issues of shares and to allow conversion of debt at market price, which have been hindered by the Company's share being traded below the nominal share value.

The board of directors of Audientes A/S have at the upcoming annual general meeting on April 18, 2024, therefore proposed to reduce the nominal value per share from nominal DKK 0.1 to DKK 0.01. This point is repeated at the extraordinary general meeting in case it is not decided upon, or deferred to later, at the annual general meeting.

The Company has since the notice of the annual general meeting received further advice to also reduce the share capital with a total nominal value of DKK 6,244,589 for the purpose of covering losses.

When these proposed changes are implemented in the Company's articles of association, the net effect will be that the number of shares issued will remain the same, namely 69,384,322, thus ensuring the Company and its shareholders will not be impacted by a major change in the number of shares issued. By implementing these proposed changes, the Company may strengthen its capital structure through future capital increases.

To prepare for an upcoming new issue of shares in Q2 2024, with pre-emptive rights for existing shareholders (a so-called "rights issue"), or other issues of shares, the board of directors proposes at the same time to increase the authorizations for the board to issue for nominal DKK 5,000,000 new shares in the Company.

The board of directors of Audientes A/S now proposes to cover these three proposals together in the extraordinary general meeting to be convened on Monday, April 29, 2024 at 1:00 pm (13:00 CEST).

Agenda

The general meeting has been called for transaction of the following agenda:

1. Election of chairman of the meeting
2. Authorization of the board of directors to reduce the nominal value per share to 0.01 DKK
3. Authorization of the board of directors to reduce the share capital for the purpose of covering losses
4. Authorization of the board of directors to increase the share capital by payment in cash, conversion of debt or contribution in kind
5. Authorization to inform the Danish Business Authority of decisions taken
at the extraordinary general meeting
6. Any other business

Requirements for resolutions

To adopt the proposals under item 2. and 3. of the agenda, at least two thirds of the votes cast and share capital represented shall vote for the proposal.

To adopt the proposal under item 4 of the agenda, at least nine tenths of the votes cast and share capital represented shall vote for the proposal.

All other proposals on the agenda may be adopted by a simple majority of votes.

Share capital and voting rights

The share capital of the Company in on the date of the extraordinary general meeting nominal DKK6,938,432 divided into 69,384,322 shares of DKK 0.10 each. Each share of nominally DKK 0.10 carries one vote.

Agenda with complete proposals

Re item 1: Election of chairman of the meeting

It is proposed to elect Audientes' Chairman of the Board, Hossein Jelveh, as chairman of the annual general meeting, with a right of substitution.

Re. Item 2: Proposal to reduce the nominal value per share from DKK 0.1 to DKK 0.01

The board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves to provide the board of directors with the authorisation to reduce the nominal value per share from nominal DKK 0.1 to DKK 0.01.

The reason for this proposal is that the company's share price has been lower than the share's nominal value of DKK 0.1 during a longer period of time in 2024. This has the undesired consequence that it is currently not possible in practice to carry out capital increases, including by using the board's authorization in the articles of association clause 4.

The proposal entails consequential amendments to the Company's articles of association where the nominal value per share is stated to be DKK 0.10, but would according to the proposal need to be changed to DKK 0.01.

The decision to change the nominal value of the share is cf. clause6.3 in the articles of association also mandating an adjustment to all the incentive plans for warrants as defined in the "General Terms" and attached to the articles of association, and to the separate "Individual Terms" documents. An adjustment of warrants shall take place to the effect that the value of the warrants to the extent possible remains unaffected by the changes.

The adjustment shall be made with assistance from the external advisors of the Company. The adjustment can take place by either an increase or a reduction in the number of shares to be issued upon exercise of a warrant, and/or an increase or reduction in the stipulated exercise price. The adjustment may however not result in an exercise price below par value for the shares.

The board will arrange that the consequential corrections to the Company's articles of association will be implemented if the general meeting adopts the proposal.

The change in the nominal value per share will take effect on the date of registration of the capital reduction with The Danish Business Authority.

Re item 3: Proposal to reduce the Company's share capital

The board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves to provide the board of directors with the authorisation to reduce the share capital by a total of nominal value of DKK 6,244,589 (i.e. from DKK 6,938,432.22 to DKK 693,843.22) with the aim of covering deficits.

Having recently published the Annual Report for 2023 (retained earnings on December 31, 2023, was approx. DKK -8,858,000) and ended Q1 2024, it is the Company's assessment that the reduction amount does not exceed the losses carried forward on the date of reduction.

The decisions on proposals under items 2. and 3. on the agenda implies that the articles of association clause 3.1. are changed to the following:

"3.1. Selskabets kapital er på nominelt kr. 693.843,22 fordelt i aktier af kr. 0,01"

The reduction in the share capital for the purpose of covering losses will take effect upon the date of registration with the Danish Business Authority.

Re item 4: Proposal to increase the share capital by payment in cash, conversion of debt or contribution in kind

The board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves to provide the board of directors with the following authorisation that will be added the articles of association as a new clause 4.16:

"Until 1 May 2028, the board of directors is authorised to increase the share capital one or more times by an aggregate nominal amount of up to DKK 5,000,000 equal to 500,000,000 shares of DKK 0.01 each.

For capital increases made under the authorisation shall the following terms apply: The capital increases can be made without pre-emption rights for the company's shareholders, the capital increases shall take place by payment of cash, conversion of debt or contribution in kind, the capital increases can be made at a price below market price, the new shares shall be paid in in full, no restrictions in the transferability of the shares shall apply, the new shares shall be negotiable instruments and the new shares shall be registered on name. The board of directors is authorised to determine the other terms for the capital increases and to implement the amendments in the company's articles which are necessary due to the board of directors' utilisation of the authorisation."

Re item 5: Authorization to inform the Danish Business Authority of decisions taken at the annual general meeting

The Board of Directors proposes that Audientes' CEO Steen Thygesen or Ulrik Laustsen, partner at PricewaterhouseCoopers Statsautoriseret Revisionspartnerselskab, with a right of substitution, is authorized to inform the Danish Business Authority of any decisions taken at the annual general meeting and in this connection to make any changes and addendums to the decisions and the Company's Articles of Association that the Danish Business Authority may require to register the decisions or approving the resolutions passed by the general meeting.
