The purpose of the share issue and the repurchase of shares of series C is to enable for participants in LTIP 2024 to acquire ordinary shares for participation in LTIP 2024 (“Investment Shares”), to ensure delivery of shares and to cover social costs and dividend compensations due to LTIP 2024. 114,587 shares of series C will be reclassified into ordinary shares. The reclassified shares together with 11,413 existing own ordinary shares, in total 126,000 ordinary shares, will be transferred to participants in LTIP 2024 as Investment Shares. The remaining number of shares of series C will be held by Medivir until further notice and will be reclassified and transferred in accordance with the terms of LTIP 2024. The shares of series C do not carry rights to dividends.
Medivir’s holding of own ordinary shares was previously 11,413 and of own shares of series C 864,750. Following the repurchase of the 1,700,000 newly issued shares of series C, and after transfer of 11,413 existing own ordinary shares and 114,587 own ordinary shares after reclassification from series C shares, Medivir will hold zero own ordinary shares and 2,450,163 own shares of series C in the company.
