Financial review Q3 2015 Group Atea achieved rapid growth in revenue during the third quarter of 2015, with significantly improved sales across all three business areas. EBITDA* grew at a slower rate, due to higher operating expenses. Group revenue was up 15.2% (up 8.6% in constant currency) from NOK 5,173 million in Q3 2014 to NOK 5,957 million in Q3 2015. Hardware revenue was up 11.3%, software revenue was up 27.0% and services revenue was up 20.2%. Currency effects had a positive impact of 6.6% in Q3 2015. On a pro forma basis**, revenue growth was 4.1% in constant currency. The increase in hardware revenue was driven by a broad range of products, including clients, datacenter and communication solutions. The increase in software revenue was driven by large license deals in Norway and Sweden. The increase in services revenue was based on growth in contracted services (service contracts with a term of 1+ years), which in Q3 constituted over 40% of total services revenue. EBITDA* in Q3 2015 increased by 4.1% to NOK 214 million, from NOK 205 million in Q3 2014. The improvement in profitability reflects revenue growth within all three business areas. The EBITDA* margin ended at 3.6%, down from 4.0% last year reflecting higher operating expenses. EBIT was down from NOK 117 million in Q3 2014 to NOK 106 million in Q3 2015 due to increased depreciation costs. Net financial items represented an expense of NOK 22 million, compared with an expense of NOK 16 million last year. Profit before tax was NOK 84 million, compared with NOK 101 million last year. Income tax expense was NOK 16 million, compared with NOK 13 million last year (see Note 5). Net profit after tax fell to NOK 69 million, compared with NOK 88 million last year.

Norway * Atea Norway increased its revenue in Q3 2015, but had lower profitability due to a decline in gross margins and a higher cost level compared with last year. Revenue growth was driven by higher sales across all three business areas, as well as by the acquisition of two companies during 2014. Revenue in Q3 2015 was NOK 1,689 million, up 11.5% compared with Q3 2014. Hardware revenue was up 7.5%, software revenue was up 28.6%, and services revenue was up 14.8%. On a pro forma basis**, revenue was up 7.5% (adjusted for the acquisitions of Datatech in Q3 2014 and Imento in Q4 2014). Hardware revenue growth was primarily driven by increased sales of PC equipment and other client devices. The increase in software revenue was driven by large deals within client related software. Growth in services revenue was driven by higher sales of contracted services, such as datacenter outsourcing agreements, as well as an increase in the number of consultants. Due to lower gross margin and higher operating expenses, EBITDA* was NOK 49 million in Q3 2015, down from NOK 57 million last year. EBITDA* margin ended at 2.9%, down from 3.8% last year. 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 57 113 EBITDA* 40 40 49 Revenue 2,500 2,108 2,000 1,500 1,514 1,622 1,713 1,689 1,000 500 0 Total gross margin decreased to 25.0%, down from 26.2% in Q3 2014. The product margin of 13.3% was down from 14.1% in Q3 2014, as a result of a change in the revenue mix towards more client business, which has lower margins. Services margin fell to 62.8% from 66.9% last year, due to increased expenses to subcontractors. Operating expenses grew by 9.6% to NOK 373 million. On a pro forma basis, operating expenses increased by 5.1%, with the remaining growth coming from acquisitions. Towards the end of Q2 actions were taken to reduce the cost base. These actions have included the elimination of 50 positions (3% of employees) and a reduction in marketing and overhead expenses. The impact of these actions on operating expenses was limited in Q3, and will not have full effect until the first quarter of 2016. * Before share-based compensation and expenses related to acquisitions ** Pro forma revenue growth includes revenue from companies acquired during 2014 and 2015 in both the current and prior full year 4

Sweden * Atea Sweden had rapid growth in revenue during the third quarter of 2015, driven by higher product sales. Operating expenses grew at a much slower rate than revenue, resulting in a large increase in EBITDA* margin from 2.6% last year to 3.5% this year. Revenue in Q3 2015 was SEK 2,224 million, up 12.8% compared with last year. Hardware revenue was up 14.8%, software revenue was up 23.9%, while services revenue was down 1.3%. On a pro forma basis**, revenue growth was the same as actual growth, as there were no acquisitions in 2014 and 2015. SEK in million EBITDA* 120 109 100 80 70 75 78 60 51 40 20 0 The growth in hardware revenue was spread across all major product categories, including client, datacenter, communication and collaboration products. The increase in software revenue was driven by large software license agreements to public sector customers. Services revenue decreased, mainly due to lower revenue from subcontracted services.

Product margin decreased to 14.0% from 14.4% in Q3 2014, due to a lower margin on large software deals. Services margin grew to 60.2% from 57.6% last year due to a lower percentage of revenue from subcontractors. Operating costs scaled relative to the strong revenue growth and increased by 2.9% to SEK 422 million. The average number of full time employees increased by 117 (+6.5%) in Q3 2015, but personnel expenses grew only 1.5%, as Q3 2014 was affected by large bonus accruals. EBITDA* in Q3 2015 increased to SEK 78 million, up from SEK 51 million in Q3 2014, reflecting strong growth in product revenue. The EBITDA* margin increased to 3.5%, up from 2.6% last year. * Before share-based compensation and expenses related to acquisitions ** Pro forma revenue growth includes revenue from companies acquired during 2014 and 2015 in both the current and prior full year 5

Denmark Atea Denmark increased its gross profit during the third quarter of 2015. However, EBITDA* fell from the prior year due to an increase in operating expenses as the organization planned for a higher activity level than it achieved in Q3. Business activity in Denmark was negatively afftected by allegations of bribery toward a large public customer. The bribery investigation is described in Note 8, and its financial impact is discussed in the Business Outlook section of this report. Revenue in Q3 2015 was DKK 1,258 million, down 1.9% compared with last year. Hardware revenue was down 7.6%, software revenue was up 2.1%, and services revenue was up 13.3%. On a pro forma basis**, revenue was down 10.4% (adjusted for the acquisition of Axcess in Q4 2014). The decrease in hardware revenue was affected by fewer high-volume low-margin agreements within the client business. The increase in software revenue was driven by license agreements to large public sector customers. The increase in services revenue was based on the acquisition of Axcess in Q4 2014 and on growth in contracted services. EBITDA* in Q3 2015 decreased to DKK 60 million, down from DKK 77 million in Q3 2014, reflecting lower revenue and the increase in the cost base. The EBITDA* margin ended at 4.8%, down from 6.0% last year.

Product margin was 10.7%, up from 9.4% in Q3 2014 as the proportion of revenue from higher value added products grew. Services margin grew to 68.2%, up from 66.7% last year based on lower subcontractor expenses. Operating expenses grew significantly during the quarter, as the organization had planned for higher growth than it achieved in Q3 2015. Operating expenses grew by 25.5% to DKK 263 million. On a pro forma basis, operating expenses increased by 5.2%, with the remaining growth coming from acquisitions. During Q3, actions were taken to lower the cost base, including the reduction of staff. The staff reductions had limited impact on operating expenses during Q3, and will have full effect on cost levels from Q1 2016. * Before share-based compensation and expenses related to acquisitions ** Pro forma revenue growth includes revenue from companies acquired in 2014 and 2015 in both the current and prior full year 6

Finland Atea Finland reported a decline in revenue and EBITDA* during the third quarter of 2015. The decline was caused by weak market conditions and lower sales volumes to some key customers. During Q3, Atea signed key frame agreements with the Finnish Defence Forces and the central purchasing unit for Finnish municipalities (Kuntien Tiera). There were no deliveries on these key contracts in the third quarter of 2015. Revenue in Q3 2015 was EUR 34.0 million, down 11.6% compared with last year. Hardware revenue was down 6.4%, software revenue was down 31.3%, while services revenue was down 0.7%. Financial performace was the same on an actual and pro forma basis** as there were no acquistions in 2014 and 2015. The Baltics Atea Baltics achieved strong growth in revenue and EBITDA* during the third quarter of 2015. Growth was driven by higher sales within all three business areas, but especially strong growth within services. Revenue in Q3 2015 was EUR 28.8 million, up 37.2% compared with last year. Hardware revenue was up 8.0%, software revenue was up 3.2%, while services revenue was up 160.4%. On a pro forma basis**, revenue growth was 26.0% (adjusted for the acquisition of Baltneta in Q2 2015). The increase in hardware and software revenue was driven by a general improvement in market conditions, which led to a multitude of small orders. The strong growth in services revenue was primarily driven by a couple of large projects for public customers closed in Q3.

Balance sheet and cash flow As of 30 September 2015, Atea had total assets of NOK 10,987 million. Current assets such as cash, receivables and inventory represented NOK 5,606 million of this total. Non-current assets represented NOK 5,381 of this total, and primarily consisted of goodwill (NOK 3,768 million), deferred tax assets (NOK 547 million), and property, plant and equipment (NOK 700 million). Additional information on the deferred tax assets can be found in Note 5 to the financial statements. Atea had total liabilities of NOK 7,804 million as of 30 September 2015, of which NOK 6,341 million were current liabilities. Shareholders equity was NOK 3,184 million, corresponding to an equity ratio of 29.0%. This is down from a 33.2% equity ratio on 30 September 2014, due to payment of dividends. Cash flow from operations was NOK -134 million in Q3 2015, compared with NOK -104 million in Q3 2014. Cash flow from operations YTD 2015 was NOK -172 million, compared with NOK 171 million YTD 2014. Atea s operating cash flow is highly seasonal, with strong performance in the fourth quarter of the year. Cash flow from operations is also heavily impacted by working capital levels at the end of each quarter. During 2014, Atea benefited from an extension in payment terms from key vendors, which had a positive one-time effect on cash flow from operations. Atea expects free cash flow for the full year 2015 to be in line with its overall profitability. Cash flow from investments was NOK -44 million in Q3 2015, compared with NOK -80 million in the corresponding quarter last year. Cash flow from investments included capital expenditures of NOK 46 million, compared with NOK 49 million in the corresponding quarter last year, related to facilities, internal systems and the development of Atea s hosting centers. Cash flow from financing was NOK 20 million in Q3 2015. The Group drew NOK 17 million on its credit facilities. Additionally the Group repurchased shares for NOK 3 million during the quarter. As of 12 October the Atea share trades ex the second semi-annual dividend for 2015 of NOK 3.25 per share, which will be paid out on 23 October, 2015. At quarter end, the Group had a cash balance of NOK 168 million. At the end of Q3 2015, the Group s net financial position was NOK -1,704 million compared with NOK -756 million at the end of Q3 2014, due to dividend payments and acquisition activities. The Group s bond covenants require that the Group maintains a maximum net interest bearing debt of 2.5x pro forma EBITDA over the last twelve months. The Group is currently well within this limit, and maintains liquidity reserves, including unutilized credit facilities, of NOK 758 million at 30 September 2015.

Business overview Background Atea is the leading provider of IT infrastructure and related services to organizations within the Nordic and Baltic regions. The company is the largest player by far in its local markets, with approximately 17% market share in 2014. Roughly half of Atea s sales are to the public sector, with the remainder of sales to private companies. The market for IT infrastructure in the Nordic and Baltic regions has grown steadily during the last several years, despite challenging conditions in the global economy. According to estimates from IDC* 7, the market for IT infrastructure and related services has grown at an average rate of 3% per year from 2007 2014. Atea s competence and leading market position in IT infrastructure has enabled the company to grow at a rate significantly higher than that of the market. Since 2007, the company has averaged an organic revenue growth rate of 4-5% per year. In addition to organic growth, Atea has successfully pursued an M&A strategy to strengthen and consolidate its market position. Atea s current organization structure is the result of the merger of the leading IT infrastructure companies in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and the Baltics in 2006 and 2007. Since 2007, Atea has acquired more than 50 companies, at valuation multiples significantly below the Group. Atea s market share in the Nordic and Baltic regions far exceeds that of other IT infrastructure providers. Today, the company has offices in 90 cities in the Nordic and Baltic region, with over 6,700 employees. This scale provides Atea with critical competitive advantages in purchasing, local market presence, breadth and depth of product offering, system integration competence, and efficient shared service and logistics functions. To address the needs of the Nordic and Baltic markets, Atea works closely with leading international IT companies, such as Microsoft, Cisco, HP, IBM, Apple, Lenovo, VMWare, Citrix, Symantec and EMC. These companies view the Nordic region as a critical market for the early adoption of new technologies, and work closely with Atea to penetrate these markets. In recent years, Atea s cooperation with its technology partners has intensified. This enables Atea to stay at the forefront of the latest IT trends, and to offer its customers new and innovative IT solutions. IT market trends The market for information technology is in the midst of revolutionary change, which is transforming society and the workplace. Across private enterprise and throughout the public sector, organizations are increasingly relying on new and innovative IT solutions to improve productivity and living standards. While the specific applications for information technology are unique for each organization, the changing demands on internal IT departments follow several common themes. Organizations require their IT infrastructure to efficiently and securely capture, process and store ever larger amounts of data from diverse sources. This information must be available wherever it may be required in a secure manner, within or outside the workplace. Finally, IT systems must allow individuals to communicate, collaborate and be productive across a broad range of technology platforms. As a result of these trends, the number of unique devices for capturing or receiving data is rapidly increasing, and the amount of data which is transferred between them and the data center is growing exponentially. At the same time, the risk of security breaches becomes ever greater. All of this creates a level of complexity which IT departments struggle to support. This presents a significant opportunity for Atea, as a system integrator with expertise across multiple platforms. Through its breadth of competency and depth of system integration expertise, Atea supports IT departments in adapting to the growing complexity of today s IT infrastructure and security. Atea helps its customers to design, implement and support IT solutions tailored for their organization. Based on its competitive advantages and leading market position in the Nordic and Baltic regions, Atea is well-positioned to maintain a long-term growth rate faster than the IT infrastructure market. At the same time, Management aims to improve Atea s long-term operating margins through revenue growth and a strong focus on cost containment. * International IT research company, International Data Corporation 9

Business overview (cont d) Business outlook Q4 2015 (cont d) Group: While Atea s competitive position is very favorable, the Group s financial performance in any period is impacted by the overall growth in the IT infrastructure in the local markets and by Atea s ability to execute its business strategy and manage costs on a country and local level. On a country level, the Group had exceptionally strong performance in Sweden and the Baltics and operational issues in its other business units during the third quarter of 2015. Actions have been taken to address the challenges currently facing the Norwegian, Danish and Finnish businesses. On the basis of these actions these businesses are expected to show improved financial performance in 2016. The Outlook by country is as follows: Sweden: Sweden is Atea s largest market, representing 37% of Group revenue in the year-to-date 2015. It is also the business unit which currently has the strongest organic improvement in financial performance. The Swedish business has historically been skewed toward the public sector (66% of Swedish revenue last year). During 2015, growth in Sweden has been particularly robust among private sector customers, especially within the largest cities. Growth in the Swedish business has come from a broad range of product categories, with the highest growth rates coming from datacenter and communication solutions. In addition, there has been high growth in contracted services (service contracts with a term of 1+ years). Atea expects continued solid financial performance from its Swedish business in the fourth quarter of 2015, although at lower revenue growth rates than in recent quarters. Denmark: Denmark is Atea s second largest market, representing 26% of Group revenue in the year-todate 2015. The Danish business has the most developed operations within datacenter services across Atea. Since the acquisition of Axcess in December 2014, the company has also enhanced its leadership position within communications and network security. Atea Denmark has seen operating expenses increase significantly during 2015. This growth was mostly driven by the acquisition of Axcess (190 employees). In addition, the company has spent on increased staffing, post-merger integration activities, and retention programs to Atea Denmark employees during the last year. During the second quarter of 2015, Atea Denmark saw revenue growth slowing down, and flatten on a pro-forma basis (adjusted for the Axcess acquisition). Much of this slowdown was attributable to a bribery investigation involving former Atea employees which was announced in June 2015. Sales to public customers continued to be affected by the investigation during the third quarter. The bribery investigation is described in Note 8. Atea continues to win new business in Denmark, as evidenced by the announcement on July 8 that SKI (Statens og Kommunernes Indkøbs Service A/S), the leading Danish public sector procurement agency, had awarded Atea a frame agreement worth DKK 500 million over 3 years. Atea was allowed to win the agreement only after SKI had reviewed the case and determined that there was no reason to withhold Atea from conducting business with the public sector. By the end of the quarter, Atea Denmark saw improved sales to public customers, although total volumes were still below historic levels. During Q3, Atea Denmark implemented actions to lower its cost base, including the reduction of staff. These actions are expected to reduce operating expenses by DKK 12 million on a quarterly basis from the start of 2016. Atea expects its business performance in Denmark to improve as the cost reduction measures take effect, and as its business stabilizes following the bribery investigation. 10

Business overview (cont d) Business outlook Q4 2015 (cont d) Norway: Norway represented 26% of Group revenue in the year-to-date 2015. The Norwegian economy is heavily exposed to the oil and gas industries, and the decline in oil and gas prices has had some impact on the market for IT infrastructure within Norway. In addition to weaker market performance, Atea has seen its growth premium relative to the market fall during the last few years. At the same time, the company has seen costs increase over the last year. In April 2015, the Country Manager of Atea Norway was replaced. Atea Group CEO Steinar Sønsteby has temporarily taken the role of Country Manager of Atea Norway, a position he previously held during a period of rapid growth. A recruitment process is underway with the intention of announcing a new Country Manager in late 2015. Since April, Atea Norway has restructured parts of its organization, in order to sharpen focus on major growth opportunities in the Oslo area and within the SMB segment. At the same time, the company has eliminated 50 positions (3% of employees) and temporarily stopped all hirings. Furthermore, Atea Norway has cut spending on overhead items, including marketing events and promotional activity. The cost reduction initiatives will have a gradual effect on operating expenses during the fourth quarter of 2015, and will have full effect during the first quarter of 2016. In 2016, the cost reduction initiatives are expected to reduce operating expenses by approximately NOK 20 million per quarter compared to Q2 2015. Atea expects its business performance in Norway to improve in 2016 with a lower cost base and the organizational changes. Finland: Finland represented 7% of Group revenue year-todate 2015. The Finnish economy has suffered from an economic downturn during the last few years, which has had a negative impact on demand for IT infrastructure. During Q3 Atea has signed key frame agreements with the Finnish Defence Forces and the central purchasing unit for Finnish municipalities (Kuntien Tiera). Deliveries on these frame agreements will start in Q4 but volumes are not expected to be significant before the first quarter of 2016. Demand for IT infrastructure in Finland is expected to be slow in the fourth quarter of 2015. On this basis, Atea Finland expects revenue to be in line with last year. Baltics: The Baltic region represented 3% of Group revenue year-to-date 2015 and has experienced strong organic revenue growth during the first three quarters of 2015. Revenue growth year-to-date was driven by a multitude of smaller orders, offsetting a decrease in large public sector projects funded by EU. Public sector demand has temporarily been impacted by fewer EU funded projects, as one 5-year funding program from the EU has been recently completed, and another has just commenced. The first large projects on the new EU funding program are expected to start in late 2016. Atea has invested in its Baltic organization as a result of demand growth, hiring 29 new services employees (representing 7% of services employees) since the end of 2014. In addition, Atea acquired Baltneta in April 2015. Baltneta is a leading provider of IT outsourcing and cloud services in the Baltic markets. Atea has had exceptionally strong revenue growth in the Baltic region since the fourth quarter of 2014. Atea expects growth in product revenue to slow in the fourth quarter of 2015 based on strong comparable performance in the prior year. Services revenue is expected to continue to grow in the fourth quarter of 2015, following the acquisition of Baltneta and other investments in the services organization. 11

NOTE 4 Business combinations Acquisitions in 2015 Atea has acquired one company during the nine months of 2015. The financial performance from the acquisition date to the end of the quarter for the acquired company is considered to be immaterial from a Group perspective. UAB Baltnetos Komunikacijos (Baltneta): Atea acquired Baltneta in April 2015. Cloud is a strategic business area for Atea, and the acquisition of Baltneta enables Atea to offer its customers state-of-the-art cloud and IT outsourcing services from the Baltic region. Allocation of purchase price Due to the high knowledge and low capital requirements for operating an IT sales and consulting organization, acquisitions within this sector will typically result in a goodwill balance. This goodwill balance represents the surplus of the purchase price compared with the accounting value of the net fixed and intangible assets of the acquired company. The fair values have been determined on provisional basis because new information may occur. Breakdown of the acquired net assets and goodwill in 2015 is as follows: Baltneta UAB Acquisition date 8 Apr 2015 Country Lithuania Voting rights/ownership interest 100% Acquisition cost: Consideration 1) 69 Adjustment of cost price 4 Liabilities assumed 2 Total acquisition cost 75 Net assets acquired at carrying value of equity (see table below) 30 Identification of excess value: Contracts and customer relationships 19 Deferred tax -3 Net excess value 16 Fair value of net assets acquired, excluding goodwill 46 Controlling ownership interests 46 Goodwill 29 1) Consideration that is dependent on future results is recognised as an obligation based on the fair value at the time of acqusition. 18

NOTE 4 Business combinations (cont d) Assets and liabilities related to the acquisitions in 2015 are as follows: Baltneta UAB Deferred tax assets 0 Goodwill 14 Computer software and rights 0 Property, plant and equipment 34 Other long-term receivables 0 Inventories 1 Trade receivables 8 Other receivables 0 Cash and cash equvalents 6 Total asset 65 Non-current liabilities -24 Current liabilities -9 Short-term Int.b. loans -2 Total liabilities -35 Net assets acquired 30 Net cash payments in connection with the acquisitions are as follows: Baltneta UAB Considerations and costs in cash and cash equivalents 69 Cash and cash equivalents in acquired companies -6 Net cash payments for the acquisitions 63 If all acquired entities had been consolidated from 1 January 2014, the consolidated pro forma income statements for 2015 would show revenue and profit as follows: YTD YTD 2015 2014 Operating revenue 19,315 17,732 Operating profit/loss (EBIT) 266 325 NOTE 5 Taxes Income tax expense is recognized based on management s estimate of its weighted average tax rate for the full year, less the value of additional tax loss carryforwards or other deferred tax items which are recognized on the balance sheet during the period. The estimated tax rate used during the nine months of 2015 is 18%. As of the year end 2014, the tax value of the tax loss carried forward within the Group was NOK 671 million, of which NOK 518 million was recognized as Deferred Tax Assets on the balance sheet. The remaining value of NOK 153 million was not recognized on the balance sheet. At the end of each year, Management reassesses the value of tax loss carried forward which will be recognized on the balance sheet. This assessment is made based on financial estimates of tax payments for the next five years. This annual assessment may have a material effect on reported Deferred Tax Assets and Deferred tax expense in the fourth quarter and full year accounts. 19

NOTE 6 Seasonality of operations Atea s revenue and cash flow are affected by the seasonality of demand for IT infrastructure investments. Demand for IT infrastructure among Atea s customers peaks in the fourth quarter of the year, leading to higher revenue and cash flow for Atea in the fourth quarter. This demand seasonality is based on the procurement cycles of large organizations in the Nordic and Baltic regions, and is particularly strong within the public sector. NOTE 7 Commitments With reference to Note 24 Commitments in the Annual report for 2014, Atea ASA has issued guarantees in favour of financial institutions as security for the lending facilities provided to Atea ASA and subsidiaries. Part of these commitments concern sublease facilities. At the end of Q3 2015, the Group had sublease commitments of NOK 373 million to financial institutions which are not reported on-balance sheet. Existing IFRS does not include specific guidance on the accounting for sublease commitments. Under a new proposed leasing standard, the sublease commitments referred to above would be reflected as both an asset and liability on the balance sheet. IASB currently plans to approve the new leasing standard before the end of 2015, with implementation most likely from 2019. NOTE 8 Risks and uncertainties As described in the Financial Summary and Business Outlook sections of this report, Atea s subsidiary in Denmark is being impacted by a possible bribery case which was announced in June 2015. This had a negative consequence for both revenue and cost in Atea Denmark in Q3 2015. One current employee of Atea Denmark has been charged in this case. The possible bribery case also involves a competitor of Atea Denmark. Charges have been placed against three current executives of the competing company. These executives all held leading positions within Atea Denmark prior to establishing their own company. Since the charges were announced, Atea management has cooperated fully with Danish law enforcement in the investigation. Atea has given transparent reports on the case to clients, suppliers, shareholders and governmental agencies. Atea has also intensified corporate communication activities on the basis of being a transparent company and with the purpose of protecting the Atea brand and company reputation. Atea has updated its internal Code of Conduct. All employees are obliged to take an examination on this code and agree to comply with it. Atea is also sharpening its control routines on expenses and on client events. Finally, Atea has established a Compliance organization reporting to the Board of Directors, and enhanced its whistleblower scheme for employees to report violations of the Code of Conduct or relevant law. These reports can be given on an anonymous basis. The current impact of the bribery case on financial performance in Atea Denmark is discussed in the Business Outlook section of this report. The longer term impact of the case in Denmark is uncertain. Other risk factors are described in the Board of Directors statement of the 2014 Annual Report. NOTE 9 Events after the balance sheet date There were no significant events after the balance sheet date which could affect the evaluation of the reported accounts. 20
