consideration. Transfers of shares in accordance with the employee stock options

of options.
Currently, the company does not hold any own shares.

The AGM resolved to authorize the Board to resolve on the issue of not more than
38.5 million new A- and/or B-shares against consideration in kind, on one or
more occasions, during the period until the Annual General Meeting in 2008. The
division between shares of class A and class B shall substantially correspond to
the division of shares at the time of the issue of new shares. The price for the
