The subscription price is 0.05 DKK per share and each share has a nominal value of DKK 0.05. The new shares are offered on substantially the same terms and of substantially the same financial value as the annulled warrants.

The share offer is allocated as follows:

Duncan Moore (Director) 241,164; Sune Hansen (former consultant) 237,948; Thomas Jensen (Employee) 178,461; Carani Sanjeevi (Director) 120,582; Steen Knudsen (Employee) 80,167; Annie Rasmussen (Employee) 80,167; Mogens Madsen (Employee) 80,167; Annette Nielsen (employee) 80,167; Anker Hansen (Employee) 80,167, Ulla Hald Buhl (former employee) 80,167, Claus Deichgræber (former employee) 80,167; Niels Laursen (former employee) 80,167; Bruce Pratt (former consultant) 80,167; Ida Due Haakansson (former employee) 80,167; and Jon Askaa (former consultant) 40,084.
