- Authorisation of the Board to decide on an issue of shares and the right to issue rights of option and special rights which give entitlement to shares as defined in Chapter 10 Article 1 of the Companies’ Act
The General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide on the issue of new shares and the company’s own shares in the possession of the company in accordance with the proposal of Board of Directors.
The new shares and the company’s own shares in possession of the company could be issued either against payment or without payment to the company's shareholders in accordance with their proportional ownership of the company’s shares or through a directed issue by deviating from the shareholders’ pre-emptive subscription right provided that there is a weighty financial reason for the deviation from the company’s point of view. A directed share issue could only be made without payment if there is an especially weighty financial reason for it from the point of view of the company and all its shareholders.
In addition, the authorisation includes a right to issue shares without payment to the company itself, provided that the number of shares issued to the company does not exceed one tenth (1/10) of all shares in the company. When calculating this number, the number of shares held by the company as well as those held by its subsidiaries must be taken into account as set out in Chapter 15, section 11(1) of the Companies Act.
The authorisation also includes the right to issue special rights, as defined in Chapter 10, section 1 of the Companies Act, which entitle to subscribe for new shares in the company or the company's own shares in the possession of the company against payment. The payment may be made either in cash or by setting off the subscriber’s receivable against the company as payment for the share subscription.
The Board of Directors is entitled to decide on other issues related to the share issues.
No more than 10,437,748 Series A shares in the aggregate, and no more than 1,536,500 Series K shares in the aggregate (no more than 11,974,248 shares in the aggregate) may be issued on the basis of this authorisation (including the shares issued under special rights), regardless of whether such shares are new shares or the company’s own shares in the company’s possession.
The authorisation to issue shares is in force until the Annual General Meeting to be held in 2025 but until 30 June 2025 at the latest. The authorization will not revoke any prior authorizations granted to the Board of Directors.
- Amendment of the article on notice to the general meeting in the company’s articles of association
The Annual General Meeting approved the Board of Directors’ proposal that article 8 of the company’s articles of association concerning the notice to the general meeting be amended so that the change reflects the wording of the Limited Liability Companies Act (amendments underlined):
The notice of a General Meeting shall be delivered by the Board of Directors by publishing the notice as a stock exchange release and on the company’s website no earlier than three months and no later than three weeks before the General Meeting, and in any event no later than nine days before the General Meeting record date referred to in section 2(2), chapter 4 of the Limited Liability Companies Act.
To be able to participate in a General Meeting, shareholders intending to do so must register their intention to participate no later than on the date specified in the notice of the General Meeting, which date may not be earlier than ten (10) days prior to the meeting, at the place mentioned in the notice of meeting.
