Authorization regarding repurchase and transfer of the company's own shares The Meeting decided in accordance with the Board's proposal to authorize the Board to make decisions, on one or several occasions prior to the next Annual General Meeting, to repurchase a maximum number of series B shares so that the company's holding following the repurchase does not exceed 10 per cent of all the shares in the company at any time.
