Dette betyr at fullmektigen vil ha plikt til å flagge fullmaktene dersom disse gjelder et antall aksjer som (sammen med fullmektigens eventuelle egne aksjer eller rettigheter til aksjer) når opp til eller overstiger tersklene for flaggeplikt i verdipapirhandelloven § 4-2 annet ledd.

Shareholders may appoint a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf. In this case a written and dated proxy must be provided. The enclosed proxy form (Appendix 3) may be used.

Under the Norwegian Securities Trading Act section 4-2 third paragraph the possession of a proxy without voting instructions is considered equal to ownership of shares or rights to shares. This means that a proxy is required to disclose the proxies if the number of shares to which they relate (together with any shares or rights to shares held by the proxy) reaches or exceeds the disclosure thresholds under the Norwegian Securities Trading Act section 4-2 second paragraph.
