The Annual General Meeting also decided to adopt principles for fees to members of the board. In case a, by the General Meeting appointed, member of the board is conducting work on behalf of the company aside of the assignment of being a board member, an agreement is to be made at market conditions and a fee can be determined by a decision by the board. The board is to conduct a review of this kind of agreements on a yearly basis.
The Annual General Meeting finally decided, unanimously, as proposed by the Board, to authorise the Board – for the period until the next annual general meeting, in one or multiple cases, and with or without derogating from the shareholders’ preferential rights – to make decisions to issue new shares. Payment should be payable in cash, by fund transfers, by cancellation, or otherwise subject to other conditions. The Company’s share capital may, based on this authorisation, be increased only by a maximum amount corresponding to a dilution of 20% of the share capital. Any derogation from the shareholders’ preferential rights may take place to strengthen the Company’s financial position and to enable acquisitions of companies or operations. Any new issue must, in derogating from the shareholders’ preferential rights, as for payments by fund transfers, take place on arm’s length terms.
At the Annual General Meeting approx. 22 per cent of the number of votes were represented by postal votes.
