The board of directors proposes re-election of PricewaterhouseCoopers Statsautoriseret Revisionspartnerselskab as auditor of the company.

9.   Proposals from the board of directors or shareholders.

Proposals from the board of directors:

9a.        Authorisation to acquire own shares.

The board of directors proposes that the general meeting authorises the board of directors to allow the company to acquire own shares during the period until the next annual general meeting, i.e. class A shares as well as class B shares, of a total nominal value of up to 10% of the company’s share capital, provided that the price of the shares at the time of purchase does not deviate by more than 10% from the most recent listed price.

9b.        Proposal to use 100 MDKK to support the reconstruction of Ukraine.

The board of directors has on several occasions stated that ROCKWOOL will actively contribute to the reconstruction of Ukraine. Accordingly, at the company's extraordinary general meeting held on 31 August 2022, it was approved that the company could use 100-200 MDKK to support the reconstruction of Ukraine.

Due to the situation in Ukraine, it has not yet been possible to start construction projects, but ROCKWOOL is in close dialogue with the authorities in the Chernihiv region and expects that major construction projects can be commenced soon. Since the extraordinary general meeting, ROCKWOOL has used approx. 20 MDKK of the approved amount, primarily on the purchase and delivery of tents, generators and heaters for the citizens of the city of Chernihiv, Ukraine.

In order to separate the reconstruction efforts in Ukraine from the day-to-day operations of the company, ROCKWOOL has resolved to establish the Foundation for Ukrainian Reconstruction, the purpose of which is to provide support for relevant projects and initiatives dedicated to the reconstruction of Ukraine and to Ukrainian refugees. The foundation can further provide support for other non-profit or charitable purposes, if the foundation's primary purpose cannot or can only be fulfilled with difficulty.

In connection with the establishment of the foundation, ROCKWOOL has resolved to contribute the remainder of the previously approved amount of 200 MDKK to the foundation dedicated to support reconstruction projects in Ukraine.

Based on ROCKWOOL's wish to continue to contribute, the board of directors proposes that the general meeting approves that an additional amount of 100 MDKK be contributed to the foundation. The total contribution to the foundation will thus be 280 MDKK.

It remains a condition that contributed amounts used in Ukraine may not be used in areas not under the control of the Ukrainian government.

In submitting the proposal, the board of directors has assessed that the proposal reflects and supports ROCKWOOL’s values and activities. Just as at last year’s extraordinary general meeting, the board of directors has considered that the company has a social responsibility and that the conflict in Ukraine is a completely extraordinary situation that affects and is of major importance to the company, its employees and business partners.

10.   Any other business.

Share capital, voting right and adoption requirements

At the time of convening the general meeting, the company’s share capital amounts to a nominal value of 216,207,090 DKK, divided into a class A share capital of a nominal value of 108,669,070 DKK (10,866,907 shares of a nominal value of 10 DKK each) and a class B share capital of a nominal value of 107,538,020 DKK (10,753,802 shares of a nominal value of 10 DKK each).
