    The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to adopt a performance based incentive programme (‘the Plan’) that will include in total approximately 10 senior executives and other key employees within CDON Group. There are no prior share-related incentive programmes within the Group.

    In order to participate in the Plan, the participants are required to own shares in CDON Group. These shares can either be shares already held or shares purchased on the market in connection with the notification to participate in the Plan. For each share held under the Plan, the participants will be granted retention rights and performance rights by the Company. Subject to fulfilment of certain retention and performance based conditions during the period 1 April 2011 – 31 March 2014 (the “Measurement Period”), the participant maintaining the employment within the CDON Group at the release of the interim report for the period January – March 2014 and subject to the participant maintaining the invested shares during the vesting period ending at the release of the interim report for the period January – March 2014, each right entitles the participant to receive one ordinary share in the Company.

    In order to ensure delivery of shares in accordance with the incentive programme, an amendment to the Articles of Association was resolved, meaning the introduction of a new class of shares, Class C shares. The Meeting resolved to authorise the Board to issue Class C shares to Nordea Bank AB (publ) and by virtue of the authorisation to repurchase its own shares. Further, the Meeting resolved that Class C shares repurchased by CDON following reclassification may be transferred to participants in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

    The Meeting also resolved amendments to the Articles of Association regarding mode of convening the General Meeting, the time for convening the meeting and the auditor’s term of office.
