Good morning. It's 9:00 Oslo time, and welcome to the Annual General Meeting in Otello Corporation ASA. My name is Geir Evenshaug. I'm a partner with the law firm, BAHR and I have been asked to open the meeting and make a registration of represented shares and votes. And the record shows that we have 41.7 million shares and votes represented, which equals to approximately 56% of the entire share capital. As usual, the minutes from the meeting as well as a summary of votes cast in each matter will be available as soon as possible after we conclude the meeting. And by that, we continue on the agenda, which is Section 2. That's the election of a person to chair the meeting, and the Board has proposed that I chair the meeting. And we have no votes against. So I will then continue as the Chairperson of the meeting. Item 3 on the agenda is approval of the calling notice and the agenda. Are there any questions or comments? No. That's fine, we have no votes against. So the calling notice and the agenda have been approved. Item 4 on the agenda is election of a person to co-sign the minutes together with me. I have the CEO, Jason Hoida, in the room with me. So I just propose that Jason then stays behind and co-signs the minutes. Are there any comments to that? No. Then Jason has been elected.
