The following periods commence at the announcement of the quarterly interim financial statements or annual financial statements. All exercise periods last for four weeks.

If Atlantic Petroleum has not received a subscription form from the warrant holder by 1st May 2010, the warrants are forfeited.
 
The warrants can only be exercised if the warrant holder is still employed or provides services to the Atlantic Petroleum Group.

The warrants are allocated as follows: 3,692 to the Managing Director, 633 to the Financial Manager, 319 to other employees, and the remaining 984 warrants to retainers.

The total market value of the options issued is estimated to be DKK 1,510,985, provided that all the warrants are exercised by 1st May 2010. The market value is calculated on the basis of Black-Scholes and on the following assumptions: exercise price: DKK 625; market price on the day of issue: DKK 625; volatility: 58.9 per cent; risk-free interest: 3.95 per cent and yearly dividend: DKK 0.00
