Item 12 – Resolution on the authorization for the Board of Directors to issue shares, subscription warrants and/or convertibles
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to authorize the Board of Directors to, on one or more occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, decide on the new issue of shares and/or issue of subscription warrants and/or convertibles. The motivation for this authorization is that, given the prevailing conditions in the capital market, the Board believes it is of great importance to have sufficient operational flexibility to quickly seize opportunities and address challenges that the Company may face. This could include, but is not limited to, securing financing for strategic investments or strengthening the Company's capital structure.

To the extent that the authorization is exercised for a decision on an issue with deviation from the shareholders' preemptive right, the number of shares that may be issued, or alternatively added, when exercising subscription warrants or conversion in total corresponds to a maximum of 50 percent of the total number of outstanding shares in the Company at the time when the Board of Directors first exercises the authorization. The authorization includes the right to decide on an issue with the condition that payment can be made in cash or by set-off or otherwise be accompanied by conditions.

For a valid resolution, according to the present proposals above, it is required that the resolution is supported by shareholders with at least two thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
