Under the authorisation, the Board of Directors may issue either new shares or treasury shares. The share issue would be carried out in accordance with the shareholders’ pre-emptive subscription right, i.e. new shares would be offered for subscription by the Company's shareholders pro rata to their existing shareholding in the Company. The Board of Directors would be authorised to decide on all other conditions of the issuance of shares. The authorisation is valid at most until the end of the next Annual General Meeting.
