The warrants to the employees
Employees that are a part of the warrant program may receive up to 9,000 warrants subject to the length of their respective employment with the Company.

The warrants will vest according to the specific terms set out in an annex to the Articles of Association, which will be published on the Company’s website when articles of association have been registered with the Danish Business Authority.
The warrants granted to employees receiving the maximum grant will vest as follows: the first portion of the warrants vest on the date of the annual general meeting in 2022, the second portion of the warrants vest on the date of the annual general meeting in 2023, and the third and last portion of the warrants vest on the date of the annual general meeting in 2024. The specific vesting terms in relation to the number of warrants (depending on the date of employment) will be further described in the annex to the Articles of Association.
If an employee ceases to be employed in the Company, all non-vested warrants will lapse. To the extent that the warrants have not been exercised by 31 December 2028, the warrants will automatically lapse. The specific terms of the warrants can be found in an annex to the Articles of Association when these have been registered with the Danish Business Authority.
