Acquisition of Dansk O.T.C and Dansk AMP On 22 March 2007, Capinordic A/S concluded a conditional agreement on the acquisition of: - Dansk O.T.C - Dansk AMP, which is a European regulated market/stock exchange. This agreement is now final. Dansk O.T.C is an investment service company with its registered office in Horsens. The target group of the company comprises affluent private customers as well as small and medium-sized enterprises. The activities of Dansk O.T.C are within the Capinordic Group's focus areas. The activities of Dansk O.T.C thus include: - Asset and pension portfolio management - Asset management through discretionary mandates for investment management companies - Financial consultancy and corporate finance activities, including operation of the OTC list. Dansk O.T.C has its registered office in Horsens, and Capinordic A/S finds it to be a natural strategy for the Group to be represented in Jutland, and the activities of Dansk O.T.C are within the Capinordic Group's focus areas. The integration of Dansk O.T.C in the Capinordic Group is therefore estimated to provide great potential for synergies with the Group's other business activities. Particularly the activities within asset portfolio management for affluent private individuals, securities trading and corporate finance activities related to companies traded on the OTC list are estimated to provide a substantial synergy potential. Dansk AMP is a European regulated market/stock exchange focusing on small and medium-sized enterprises. Today, 15 companies are listed on Dansk AMP. Acquisition price for Dansk O.T.C and Dansk AMP The consideration for Dansk O.T.C consists partly of a cash payment of DKK 20 million and partly of a holding of newly subscribed shares in Capinordic A/S. The share remuneration comprises 2,702,702 shares in Capinordic A/S at a price of DKK 27.75 per share of a nominal value of DKK 0.50. The acquisition price for Dansk AMP has been fixed at DKK 10 million to be paid in cash. As an incentive support, an agreement has been made on a performance-dependent bonus for the executive board. Payment of the bonus depends on targets relative to earnings and assets under management. Claus Ørskov, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Capinordic A/S, and Steen Bryde, Executive Manager of Capinordic A/S, will join the supervisory boards of both Dansk O.T.C and Dansk AMP.
