Novo Nordisk ® Appendix 1 – Shareholder proposal for candidates for the Board of Directors The Novo Nordisk Foundation and Novo Holdings A/S have submitted a shareholder proposal to elect the candidates set out herein . This Appendix has been received from the Novo Nordisk Foundation and Novo Holdings A/S . The Board Competency Profile In accordance with the Company’s Board Competency Profile which is available on https://www.novonordisk.com/about/corporate - governance . html , all Board members should possess integrity, accountability, fairness, financial literacy, commitment, desire for innovation, a corporate social responsible mindset and a collaborative mindset . Additionally, the collective competences of the shareholder - elected Board members should include experience within the competences listed in the Board Competency Profile as well as two additional competencies (Direct - to - consumer marketing, US pharmaceutical market expertise) which will be added to the Board Competency Profile following the Extraordinary General Meeting : • Global corporate leadership • Healthcare & pharma industry • Finance & accounting • Business development, M&A & external innovation sourcing • Human capital management • Medicine & science • Environmental, social & governance (ESG) • Technology, data & digital • Direct - to - consumer marketing • US pharmaceutical market expertise If all proposed candidates are elected to the Board, the Board will collectively possess the desired competences and experience . Diversity ambition The following aspirations have guided the identification of shareholder - elected candidates for the Board : • The Board should consist of at least two shareholder - elected Board members with Nordic nationality and at least two shareholder - elected Board members with a nationality other than Nordic . • By 2026 , the Board should consist of at least three shareholder - elected Board members who are women and three who are men . With the proposed candidates, the shareholder - elected Board members will consist of three Nordic members and three non - Nordic members. Of these, one member is female and five are male. Further to these, Ms. Helena Saxon has been identified as a candidate to be proposed for election to the Board at the Annual General Meeting in March 2026. It is therefore the intention to identify one additional candidate with complementary competences to be elected at the Annual General Meeting in March 2026, at which point the aim is to fulfil both the nationality and gender ambitions. Independence It is an aspiration that at least half of the Company’s shareholder - elected Board members should be independent in accordance with the Danish Corporate Governance Recommendations. Three of the proposed candidates, Mr . Sørensen, Mr . Kutay and Ms . Meelby Jensen, are not considered to be independent . Mr . Sørensen holds the Chair position at the Board of the Novo Nordisk Foundation, the ultimate controlling shareholder of the Company . Ms . Meelby Jensen holds a board position at Novo Holdings A/S, while Mr . Kutay is Chief Executive Officer of Novo Holdings A/S, the Novo Nordisk Foundation’s investment company and the main shareholder of Novo Nordisk A/S . If all proposed candidates are elected to the Board, the Board will satisfy the aspiration to have a number of Board members representing the main shareholder and that at least half of the Board members elected by the shareholders shall be independent. Mr. Kutay is not up for election as his term runs until the Annual General Meeting in March 2026. He continues on the Board through his term. After the Extraordinary General Meeting, the Board will elect its committee members and e.g. intends to elect members of the Audit Committee who qualify as independent as required and defined by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as well as the Danish Act on Approved Auditors and Audit Firms. Mr. Engels qualifies for these requirements, and the same applies to Ms. Saxon upon election at the Annual General Meeting in March 2026. Extraordinary General Meeting
