pledge of the Company's own shares as follows.

The amount of own shares to be repurchased and/or accepted as pledge shall not

proportion to the shareholdings of the shareholders (directed repurchase). Own
shares can be repurchased using the unrestricted equity of the Company at a
price formed in public trading on the date of the repurchase or otherwise at a

investments or other business transactions, or in order to use the shares as
part of the Company's incentive scheme.

The repurchased shares may be held for reissue, canceled or transferred further.

The Board of Directors decides on all other matters related to the repurchase
and/or acceptance as pledge of own shares. The authorization is effective until
June 30, 2015 and it cancels the authorization given to the Board of Directors
by the Annual General Meeting on March 28, 2013 to decide on the repurchase of
the Company's own shares.

16. Authorizing the Board of Directors to decide on the issuance of shares and
the issuance of special rights entitling to shares

The Board of Directors proposes to the General Meeting that the Board of
Directors be authorized to decide on the issuance of new shares and the transfer
of the Company's own shares as well as the issuance of special rights referred
to in Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Companies Act as follows.

The amount of new shares, which may be issued shall not exceed 15,000,000
shares, which corresponds to approximately 10 percent of all shares in the
Company. The amount of the Company's own shares which may be transferred shall
not exceed 10,000,000 shares, which corresponds to approximately 6.7 percent of
all shares in the Company.

The Board of Directors is furthermore authorized to issue special rights
referred to in Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Companies Act entitling their holder
to receive new shares or the Company's own shares for consideration in such a
manner that the subscription price of the shares is to be set off against a
receivable of the subscriber ("Convertible Bond"). The amount of shares which
may be issued or transferred based on the special rights shall not exceed
15,000,000 shares, which corresponds to approximately 10 percent of all shares
in the Company. This aggregate number of shares is included in the aggregate
numbers of shares mentioned in the previous paragraph.

The new shares may be issued and the Company's own shares may be transferred for
consideration or without consideration.

The Board of Directors is also authorized to decide on a share issue to the
Company itself without consideration. The amount of shares which may be issued
to the Company combined with the amount of shares to be repurchased based on
authorization shall not exceed 10,000,000 shares, which corresponds to
approximately 6.7 percent of all shares in the Company.

The new shares and the special rights referred to in Chapter 10 Section 1 of the
Companies Act may be issued and the Company's own shares transferred to the
shareholders in proportion to their current shareholdings in the Company. The
new shares and the special rights referred to in Chapter 10 Section 1 of the
Companies Act may also be issued and the Company's own shares transferred in
deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive rights by way of a directed issue
if there is a weighty financial reason for the Company to do so. The deviation
from the shareholders' pre-emptive rights may be carried out for example in
order to develop the Company's capital structure, in order to finance or carry
out acquisitions, investments or other business transactions, or in order to use
the shares for an incentive scheme. A directed share issue may be executed
without payment only if there is an especially weighty financial reason for the
Company to do so, taking the interests of all shareholders into account.

The Board of Directors decides on all other matters related to the issuance of
shares and special rights referred to in Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Companies
Act.

The authorization is effective until April 30, 2016, and it cancels the
authorization given by the Annual General Meeting on March 29, 2012.
