AGENDA ITEM 7.2 The Board of Directors proposes that the authority to the Board of Directors to increase the share capital pursuant article 5 A is renewed to the effect that the authority is valid until 23 September 2019 with similar terms set forth in the present article 5 A. It is proposed that the date “20 October 2014” in article 5 A, paragraph 2 is deleted and replaced by the date “23 September 2019”. RE. AGENDA ITEM 7.3 It is proposed to authorise the Board of Directors to issue – without pre-emption rights to the Company’s existing shareholders – warrants for subscription of shares in the Company of a nominal value up to DKK 5,000,000. Furthermore, it is proposed to authorise the Board of Directors to execute the share capital increases necessary in connection with the exercise of the said warrants. The authority to the Board of Directors is proposed to be included in the Company’s Articles of Association as a new article 5 G, which will read as follows: “The Board of Directors shall be authorised to issue warrants in one or more portions for the subscription of shares of a nominal value of up to DKK 5,000,000, however, adjustments in connection with regular, general adjustment procedures determined by the Board of Directors/the Executive Board may lead to a larger or smaller nominal value. The authority shall be valid until and including 23 September 2019. Existing shareholders of the Company shall have no pre-emption rights in connection with the issuance of the warrants, as said warrants shall be issued for the benefit of certain executive employees, including the Executive Board, as determined by the Board of Directors. Holders of the warrants shall have the right to subscribe for new shares at a share price no less than the market share price at the date when the warrants are granted. The Board of Directors shall determine the specific terms for the warrants issued in accordance with the authority. The terms applicable for executive employees and the Executive Board may be different. Under the rules in force from time to time the Board of Directors may re-use or re-issue any lapsed non-exercised warrants, provided that the re-use or re-issue takes place under the conditions and time restrictions which follow from this authorisation. Re-use means that the Board of Directors is entitled to let a third party become a party to an already existing agreement on warrants. Re-issue means that it is possible for the Board of Directors, within the same authorisation, to re-issue warrants if already issued warrants have lapsed. The Board of Directors shall be authorised during the period until and including 23 September 2019 to increase the Company’s share capital by a total nominal value of up to DKK 5,000,000 in one or more portions by cash contributions in connection with the exercise of warrants. However, the above-mentioned regular, general adjustment procedures may lead to a larger or smaller nominal value which is included in this authority. Existing shareholders of the Company shall not have pre-emption rights to subscribe for new shares which are issued when exercising the warrants. The new shares shall be negotiable instruments and shall be issued to the bearer.” RE. AGENDA ITEM 7.4 The Board of Directors proposes that the Board of Directors should be authorised for the period until the next Annual General Meeting to allow the Company to acquire own shares representing up to 10% of the share capital and at a price deviating by no more than 10% from the listed price at the time of the acquisition. RE. AGENDA ITEM 7.5 The Board of Directors proposes that the revised “Remuneration Policy” should be adopted. The Policy is available on the corporate website www.iccompanys.com under Investors/Annual General Meeting/AGM Material.
