  1. PROPOSALS FROM THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
    1. Proposal to renew authorisation to increase the share capital

                   To secure the basis for potential future financing rounds, the Board of Directors proposes that the authorisations in Article 16 of the Articles of Association to increase the Company’s share capital with or without pre-emptive rights be renewed. The proposed authorisations shall each be subject to a limit of DKK 100,000,000 for pre-emptive issues. For share issues without pre-emptive rights, the limit is DKK 30,000,000 with the option of an additional DKK 70,000,000 for offerings where the new shares are admitted to trading on a stock exchange, etc. other than Nasdaq Copenhagen (whether as a separate or dual listing). The authorisations shall further be subject to an unchanged aggregate maximum of DKK 120,000,000. The authorisations will expire on the second anniversary of the general meeting.

                    

                   Article 16 of the Articles of Association will consequently be deleted and replaced by the following:

                    

                   “Article 16a

                   The board of directors is authorised until April 29, 2023, to increase the share capital of the Company on one or more occasions, with pre-emptive subscription rights for existing shareholders, by up to nominally DKK 100,000,000 in total.

                    

                   Article 16b

                   The board of directors is authorised until April 29, 2023, to increase the Company’s share capital on one or more occasions, without pre-emptive subscription rights for existing shareholders, by up to nominally DKK 30,000,000 and further by an additional DKK 70,000,000 for offerings where the new shares are admitted to trading on a stock exchange, regulated market, multilateral trading facility or similar other than Nasdaq Copenhagen (whether as a separate listing or as a dual listing on such exchange, etc. and Nasdaq Copenhagen), provided in each case that any capital increase pursuant to this authorisation shall be effected at market price.

                    

                   Article 16c

                   A maximum of nominally DKK 120,000,000 shares can be issued by exercise of the authorisations of the board of directors pursuant to Articles 16a and 16b. For the capital increases pursuant to Articles 16a and 16b, it also applies that these increases may take place by means of cash payment, by debt conversion or by the contribution of assets other than cash. The new shares shall be negotiable securities, be registered in the name of the holder and be paid in full. No restrictions shall apply to the transferability of the new shares.

                    

                   The board of directors is authorised to amend the Articles of Association as required following exercise of this authorisation.”

                    

                   The Board of Directors notes that the previous authorisation to raise loans against issuance of convertible debt instrument in Article 17 of the Articles of Association has lapsed. The Board of Directors proposes that this authorisation not be renewed and it will consequently be removed from the Articles of Association. Subsequent articles will be renumbered accordingly.

                    

            B)     Proposal to renew authorisation to issue warrants and amend warrant terms

                   To secure the Company’s ability to continue to attract and retain highly qualified employees and members of management, the Board of Directors proposes that the authorisation in Article 18 of the Articles of Association to issue warrants to the Executive Management and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries be renewed. The proposed authorisation shall be limited so that (i) the aggregate number of warrants outstanding shall not exceed the equivalent of 10% of the Company’s share capital from time to time; and further that (ii) the maximum share capital increase pursuant the authorisation shall be DKK 10,000,000 (corresponding to approximately 4% of the Company’s current share capital). The authorisation will expire on the second anniversary of the general meeting. The Board of Directors further proposes that any changes to performance criteria applicable to warrants shall require unanimous approval of the Board of Directors.

                    

                   Article 18a of the Articles of Association will consequently be deleted and replaced by the following:

                    

                   “Until 29 April, 2023, the board of directors is authorised to issue warrants, on one or more occasions, entitling the holder(s) to subscribe for up to nominally DKK 10,000,000 of the share capital of the Company. In no event shall the aggregate number of outstanding warrants issued by the Company allow for the issuance of shares representing more than 10% of the Company’s share capital from time to time. The new warrants may be issued to employees and the executive management of the Company or its subsidiaries and thus without pre-emptive rights for existing shareholders.

                    

                   Issued warrants, that lapse unused or are returned to the Company, may be re-issued or re-used, subject always to the above limitations and provided that the exercise price shall equal the market price of the Company’s shares at the time the warrants are re-issued or re-used. The board of directors determines the detailed terms for warrants, including terms for the exercise of warrants. Potential performance requirements for the exercise of warrants (KPI’s) will be determined by the board of directors at the time of grant. Performance requirements, including the deadline for such requirements to be satisfied, can be amended only with the unanimous approval of the Board of Directors.

                    

                   The board of directors is authorised to decide on the capital increases by cash payment pertaining to the warrants. All new shares shall be negotiable securities, shall have the same rights as the other shares and shall entitle the holder to dividends and other rights in the Company from the time determined by the board of directors when adopting the decision to increase the share capital. The new shares shall be paid in full, registered in the name of the holder and no restrictions shall apply to the transferability of the new shares. The board of directors is authorised to amend the Articles of Association as required following exercise of this authorisation.”

                    

                   In addition, a new section 12.4 will be included in Annex 1 to the Articles of Association:

                   ”Irrespective of section 12.1. and 12.2., performance requirements, including the deadline for such requirements to be satisfied,  can be amended only with the unanimous approval of the Board of Directors.”

                    

                   Grant and subsequent issue of warrants is at all times subject to the Company’s Remuneration Policy and the terms and conditions set out in the Articles of Association, which are available on the Company’s website, www.bioporto.com.

 

            C)     Adoption of an amendment of the Remuneration Policy to authorise the Board of Directors to implement an indemnification scheme for members of the Board of Directors and the Executive Management

                   Recent developments in the insurance market is making it increasingly difficult and costly for listed companies to obtain and maintain relevant and appropriate insurance coverage for its directors, officers and key employees. The Board of Directors therefore considers it to be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders that the Company is authorised by resolution of the Board of Directors to offer indemnification to members of the Board of Directors and Executive Management for potential third party claims, provided that such claims are not caused by gross negligence or wilful misconduct by the board member or executive in question.

                    

                   The Board of Directors therefore proposes to include the following wording in the Remuneration Policy as a new section 3.1.:

 

                   “The Company may take out liability insurance covering its directors and officers in the exercise of their duties. If the Company considers that the insurance coverage available is insufficient and/or unreasonably costly, the Company may by resolution of the Board of Directors offer to indemnify members of the Board of Directors and/or Executive Management in respect of third party claims raised against them in relation to the exercise of their duties, provided in each case such claims are not caused by fraud, gross negligence or wilful misconduct.”

The remainder of section 3 “General Terms” will be renumbered accordingly. No further amendments are proposed to the Remuneration Policy, which is available on the Company’s website.

 

D)     Authorisation to the chairman of the general meeting

                   The Board of Directors proposes that the general meeting authorises the chairman of the general meeting, with a right of substitution, to file the resolutions adopted with the Danish Business Authority and to make any such amendments as the Danish Business Authority may require in order to register or approve the resolutions adopted.

 

 8)            ELECTION OF AUDITOR

            The Board of Directors proposes re-election of PricewaterhouseCoopers Statsautoriseret Revisionspartnerselskab, company registration number 33771231, as the Company’s auditor.

             

            The proposal is based on the recommendation from the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee’s proposal has not been influenced by third parties and is not subject to contractual obligations restricting the general meeting’s choice of certain auditors or audit firms.

             

 9)            ANY OTHER BUSINESS
