Resolution on approval of remuneration report

The annual general meeting resolved to approve the board's remuneration report for the financial year 2020.

Resolution on authorization regarding issues

The annual general meeting resolved in accordance with the proposal from the board to authorize the board, up until the next annual general meeting, at one or several occasions, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights and with or without provisions regarding contribution in kind, set-off or other conditions, to resolve to issue new ordinary shares, convertibles and/or warrants. The reason for why a deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights should be possible is to enable the company to source working capital, to be able to execute acquisitions of companies or operating assets as well as to enable new issues to industrial partners within the framework of partnerships and alliances. The total number of ordinary shares that may be issued (alternatively be issued through conversion of convertibles and/or exercise of warrants) shall not exceed 20 percent of the current number of outstanding ordinary shares as per the date of the annual general meeting. In case the authorization is used for an issue with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the issue shall be made on market terms.

Resolution on implementation of a long-term incentive program for employees by way of (A) implementation of a performance-based share saving program; (B) amendment of the Articles of Association; (C) authorization on directed issues of series C shares; (D) authorization on repurchase of series C shares; and (E) resolution on transfer of own ordinary shares

The annual general meeting resolved in accordance with the proposal from the board to implement a long-term incentive program in the form of a performance-based share saving program for employees in the company ("LTI 2021"). LTI 2021 means that participants will invest in ordinary shares in the company ("Saving Shares"). After a predetermined period of time, participants are entitled to receive additional shares in the company free of charge ("Matching Shares"). In addition, conditional upon fulfilment of a goal related to the development of the share price, the participants will further, free of charge, have the right to receive additional shares in the company ("Performance Shares").

The maximum number of shares that may be issued under LTI 2021 amounts to 1,153,211, whereof 877,500 for delivery of Matching Shares and Performance Shares to the participants and in the aggregate 275,711 related to hedging of cash flow for social security contributions, which corresponds to a dilution of approximately 1.3 per cent of the company's share capital and votes after full dilution, calculated on the number of shares that will be added upon full issuance of shares in connection with LTI 2021.

In order to secure the company's delivery of Matching Shares and Performance Shares to the participants under LTI 2021, the annual general meeting also resolved to (i) amend the company's Articles of Association, meaning that a new share class, series C shares, is incorporated in the Articles of Association in order to enable issuance of series C shares under LTI 2021; (ii) authorize the board to resolve on directed issues of series C shares, whereby the new shares, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, only may be subscribed for by a bank or a securities company at a subscription price which corresponds to the quota value of the shares; (iii) authorize the board to resolve to repurchase own series C shares; and (iv) approve transfer of own ordinary shares to the participants under LTI 2021.
