share subscription price of the stock options is EUR 0.33 per share. The Board
of Directors will determine separate financial targets based on the company’s
performance improvement program for vesting of each stock option class.

options is 2013A: 500,000, 2013B 650,000 and 2013C 650,000. 

 The targets established for the 2015 financial year´s Earnings before

options 2013A and 2013B were not achieved. The Board of Directors decided to
establish new targets for the financial year 2016. The share subscription
period for stock options 2013A, 2013B and 2013C will begin only if the targets
established for the 2016 financial year’s EBITDA are fulfilled. 

 The number of stock options 2013C is 650,000. The theoretical market value of
one stock option 2013C is EUR 0.04 per stock option. The theoretical market
value of the stock options 2013C is EUR 26,000 in total. The theoretical market
value of one stock option has been calculated using the Black & Scholes stock
option pricing model with the following input factors: share price EUR 0.22,
share subscription price EUR 0.33, risk free interest rate -0.24%, time to
maturity of stock options approximately 4.2 years and volatility 38%. The
theoretical market value of the stock options has not been adjusted downward
for the probability the targets established for the vesting criterion not being
fulfilled. 

The terms and conditions of the stock options 2013 has been published on 17
September 2013.
