In addition, the Board of Directors has submitted the following proposal for amendment of the articles of association:
• Article 4(a) is changed to:
"The Board of Directors is authorised to increase the share capital by subscription for up to nominally DKK 4,530,000 new shares. Until 31 January 2017, the share capital may be increased, as decided by the Board of Directors, by up to DKK 4,530,000 on one or several occasions.
The increase may be effected by the issue of class A shares as well as class B shares according to the proportion between the two classes of shares, or by the issue of class B shares only.
Where the share capital is increased by the issue of both class A shares and class B shares, the Board of Directors in agreement with the class A shareholder, may decide that part of the class A share capital shall entitle holders to subscribe for new class B shares instead of new class A shares.
Where the share capital is increased by the issue of shares at market price, the Board of Director may decide that the shareholders shall have no pre-emption right to the new shares.
The rules applying to the existing class A and class B shares shall apply correspondingly to the new class A and class B shares.
The Board of Directors' authorisation to increase the share capital comprises increases which in full or in part take place in another way than by cash payment."
