26.03.2010
SHARE BUY-BACK ACCORDING TO THE SAFE HARBOUR METHOD
Company Announcement No. 349

 

 
The Supervisory Board of DSV has decided to buy back shares in accordance with
the authorisation granted by the Annual General Meeting on 26 March 2010. 

As at today, 26 March 2010, DSV holds 140.727 treasury shares of a nominal
value of DKK 1 each, corresponding to 0,07% of DSV's share capital. 

Purpose
The purpose of the share buy-back is to hedge the Group's incentive programme.

Time frame
The share buy-back period runs from 29 March 2010 to 28 April 2010, both days
inclusive. During this period, DSV will buy back up to 1,000,000 shares;
however, purchases may not exceed DKK 110 million under a share buy-back
programme prepared in accord¬ance with the provisions of European Commission
Regulation (EC) No. 2273/2003 of 22 November 2003, the so-called “Safe Harbour”
method that protects the supervisory board and executive board of listed
companies from violating insider trading legislation in connection with share
buy-backs. 

Buy-back terms
•	DSV is required to retain a financial adviser who is to make its own trading
decisions independently of and without influence from DSV and execute the
buy-back within the announced limits. DSV has retained Nordea Bank Danmark A/S
as its financial adviser and lead manager for the share buy-back. 
•	The maximum amount that DSV may pay for shares purchased under the share
buy-back programme is DKK 110 million, and no more than 1,000,000 shares,
corresponding to 0.48% of the current share capital of DSV A/S, may be
purchased. 
•	No shares may be bought back at a price exceeding the higher of the share
price of the latest independent trade and the highest current independent offer
price at NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen at the trade time. As a result of this
restriction, DSV can hardly expect to make purchases up to the daily share
buy-back limit. 
•	The maximum number of shares in the Company which may be purchased on each
business day corresponds to 25% of the average daily trading volume of DSV
shares on NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen over the last 20 trading days prior to the date
of purchase. 
•	The reporting obligations under Danish law and the rules of NASDAQ OMX
Copenhagen must be fulfilled within the applicable time limits.
