Authorisation to issue shares

The Annual Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide to
issue new shares and to convey the company's own shares held by the
company in one or more tranches. The share issue can be carried out
as a share issue against payment or without consideration on terms to
be determined by the Board of Directors and in relation to a share
issue against payment at a price to be determined by the Board of
Directors.

The authorisation also includes the right to issue special rights, in
the meaning of Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Companies Act, which
entitle to the company's new shares or the company's own shares held
by the company against consideration.

A maximum of 11 600 000 new shares can be issued. A maximum of
5 800 000 own shares held by the company can be conveyed.

The authorisation also comprises the right to deviate from the
shareholders' pre-emptive subscription right provided that the
company has an important financial reason for the deviation in a
share issue against payment and provided that the company, taking
into account the interest of all its shareholders, has a particularly
important financial reason for the deviation in a share issue without
consideration. Within the above mentioned limits the authorisation
can be used e.g. in order to strengthen the company's capital
structure, to broaden the company's ownership, to be used as payment
in corporate acquisitions or when the company acquires assets
relating to its business and as part of the company's incentive
programmes. It is proposed that shares may also be subscribed for or
own shares conveyed against contribution in kind or by means of
set-off.

In addition, the authorisation includes the right to decide on a
share issue without consideration to the company itself so that the
amount of own shares held by the company after the share issue is a
maximum of one-tenth (1/10) of all shares in the company. Pursuant to
Chapter 15 Section 11 Subsection 1 of the Companies Act, all own
shares held by the company and its subsidiaries are included in this
amount.

The authorisation shall be in force until the next Annual General
Meeting.

Authorisation to acquire the company's own shares

The Annual Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide to
acquire the company's own shares with distributable funds on the
terms given below. The acquisition of shares reduces the company's
distributable non-restricted shareholders' equity.

The company's own shares can be acquired in order to strengthen the
company's capital structure, to be used as payment in corporate
acquisitions or when the company acquires assets related to its
business and as part of the company's incentive programmes in a
manner and to the extent decided by the Board of Directors, and to be
transferred for other purposes or to be cancelled. A maximum of
5 800 000 shares can be acquired. The company's own shares can be
acquired in accordance with the decision of the Board of Directors
either through public trading or by public offer at their market
price at the time of purchase.
