The annual general meeting resolved to authorize the board of directors, up until the next annual general meeting on one or several occasions, to issue new shares against payment in kind. However, such issue must never result in the company’s issued share capital or number of shares in the company, at any time, increasing by more than a total of 10 per cent, or cause the company’s share capital to exceed the maximum allowed share capital according to the articles of association.

The meeting resolved to extend the latest time for making an offer to participate in the company’s new performance-based, long-term incentive program 2011/2021 (allocation) until 31 December 2013.
