Re agenda item 8.1
In 2019 the Company launched a share buyback programme of up to a maximum consideration of DKK 2.2 billion. The purpose of the share buyback programme is to reduce the Company's share capital and to meet its obligations under the applicable share based incentive programmes for the Company's employees. The Board proposes to reduce the Company's share capital to the effect that a part of the total portfolio of treasury shares are cancelled while the remaining part is retained for the purpose of fulfilling the Company's obligations in connection with said incentive programmes.

The share buyback programme covers the period from 14 March 2019 to 19 March 2020. Reference is made to the company announcements available on the Company's website www.pandoragroup.com.
Based hereon, the Board proposes that the Company's share capital be reduced by a nominal amount of DKK 8,000,000 by cancellation of a nominal amount of 8,000,000 treasury shares of DKK 1, equal to 8% of the Company's total share capital. 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. To that end, the Board states that a nominal amount of DKK 7,481,036 of the treasury shares have been acquired in the period between 14 March 2019 and 14 February 2020 for a total amount of DKK 2,080,042,195 to the effect that, in addition to the nominal reduction amount of DKK 7,481,036  an amount of DKK 2,072,042,195 has been distributed.
Further, in the period until 13 March 2019, as part of an earlier share buyback programme, the Company acquired treasury shares to a nominal amount of DKK 404,494 for a total amount of DKK 145,510,439 to the effect that, in addition to the nominal reduction amount of DKK 404,494 an amount of DKK 145,105,945 has been distributed. The remaining shares of a nominal amount of DKK 114,470.00 will be acquired in the period until the Meeting for a purchase price not diverging from the price quoted on NASDAQ Copenhagen at the time of acquisition by more than 10%. The total amount of distribution for the shares will be disclosed at the Meeting. Following the capital reduction, the Company's nominal share capital will be DKK 92,000,000.

As a result of the share capital reduction, it is proposed that article 4.1 of the Articles of Association is amended to read as follows after expiry of the time period prescribed in section 192 of the Danish Companies Act:

"The Company's share capital is nominally DKK 92,000,000, divided into shares of DKK 0.01 or any multiple thereof."

Before the implementation of the capital reduction, the Company's creditors will be requested, through the Danish Business Authority's IT system, to file their claims within a time limit of 4 weeks. The implementation of the capital reduction and the resulting amendment to the Articles of Association will be finally registered upon the expiry of the time limit.

Re agenda item 8.2
As a consequence of an amendment to the Danish Companies Act, a remuneration report for each financial year is subject to an advisory and non-binding vote by the annual general meeting, beginning at the annual general meeting in 2021 covering the financial year 2020. Article 8.2 of the Articles of Association is proposed to be amended to account for this new item on the standard agenda with the insertion of a new sub-item 3, whereby the new article 8.2 will read as follows:

“At the annual general meeting the agenda is as follows:

  1. The Board of Directors' report on the Company’s activities during the past financial year.
  2. Adoption of the audited annual report.
  3. Presentation of the remuneration report.
  4. Adoption of proposal on the Board of Directors’ remuneration for the current financial year.
  5. Proposed distribution of profit as recorded in the adopted annual report, including the proposed amount of any dividend to be distributed or proposal to cover any loss.
  6. Election of members to the Board of Directors.
  7. Election of auditor.
  8. Resolution on the discharge from liability of the Board of Directors and Executive Management.
  9. Any proposal by the Board of Directors and/or shareholders.”

Re agenda item 8.3
The Board proposes that the Meeting authorises the Board to, in the period until 11 March 2025, allow the Company to acquire own shares up to an aggregate nominal value of 10% of the Company's share capital, provided that the Company's holding of treasury shares does not at any time exceed 10% of the Company's share capital. The purchase price paid in connection with acquisition of own shares must not diverge from the price quoted on Nasdaq Copenhagen at the time of acquisition by more than 10%.

Re agenda item 8.4
As a consequence of an amendment to the Danish Companies Act, the Board presents a new remuneration policy for adoption. The document can be found at the Company's website www.pandoragroup.com.

Going forward, the remuneration policy is subject to vote by the general meeting every fourth year and upon any material changes thereto.

Provided the remuneration policy is adopted, article 13 of the Articles of Association will be deleted from, and the numbering adjusted of, the Articles of Association without a vote.

Re agenda item 8.5
The Board proposes that the chair of the Meeting is authorised 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.

VOTING REQUIREMENTS
The resolutions under agenda items 8.1 and 8.2 proposed by the Board require at least two-thirds of the votes cast and of the share capital represented at the Meeting. All other proposals may be passed by a simple majority of votes.
