The capital increase is a consequence of the exercise of warrants granted under two of Zealand Pharma's employee warrant programs.

The exercise price was DKK 90.70 per share for 20,924 new shares. The total proceeds to Zealand Pharma from the capital increase amount to DKK 1,897,806.80.

The new shares give rights to dividends and other rights from the time of the respective warrant holder's exercise notice. Each new share carries one vote at Zealand Pharma's general meetings. Zealand Pharma has only one class of shares.

The new shares will be admitted to trading on Nasdaq Copenhagen after the capital increase has been registered with the Danish Business Authority.
