Re 7.1: The Annual General Meeting adopted the proposal by the Board of

deviate more than 10% from the official price quoted on NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen
A/S at the time of acquisition.
Re 7.2: The Annual General Meeting adopted the proposal by the Board of
Directors that the existing authorisation in Article 4a of the Articles of
Association to increase the company's share capital is extended by one year so
that it is applicable until and including 1 April 2018, and that a few
linguistic changes to the wording of the authorisation are made. Article 4a of
the Articles of Association will hereafter read as follows:
"The Board of Directors is authorised to increase the share capital by issuing
new shares in one or more tranches at a total nominal value of up to DKK
100,000,000 and with pre-emption rights for the company's existing shareholders,
subject, however, to paragraph 3. The new shares shall be paid in cash. The
authorisation shall apply for the period until and including 1 April 2018.
Further, the Board of Directors is authorised to increase the share capital by
issuing new shares in one or more tranches at a total nominal value of up to DKK
100,000,000 and without pre-emption rights for the company's existing
shareholders, subject, however, to paragraph 3, provided that the increase takes
place at market value. The new shares may be paid in cash or by contribution of
assets other than cash. The authorisation shall apply for the period until and
including 1 April 2018.
The authorisations of the Board of Directors pursuant to paragraphs 1 and 2
apply to a total issue of new shares at an aggregate nominal value not exceeding
DKK 100,000,000.
In the case of a share capital increase pursuant to paragraphs 1 and 2, the new
shares shall be issued to bearer but may be entered into the company's register
of shareholders. The shares shall be negotiable and shall in all other respects
bear the same rights as the existing shares, for example in terms of
redeemability and restrictions on negotiability. The new shares shall entitle
the holder to dividend from the time decided by the Board of Directors, however,
not later than as from the financial year following the increase. The Board of
Directors shall decide the terms and conditions for increases of the share
capital that are implemented in accordance with the authorisations in paragraphs
1 and 2."
The Chairman of the Annual General Meeting, Mr Klaus Søgaard, closed the Annual
General Meeting at 17.30 hours. 389 shareholders, representing 24.25% of the
votes, attended the Annual General Meeting.
At the subsequent initial Board Meeting, the Board elected Vagn Ove Sørensen as
Chairman and Torkil Bentzen as Vice Chairman.
