Resolution on authorization for the board to resolve on directed new issue, item 13
The board of directors proposes that the board of directors shall be authorized, at one or several occasions, during the time up until the next AGM, with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, and with or without provisions regarding payment in cash, in kind or through set-off or other provisions, to resolve on a directed new issue of shares. The total number of shares that that may be issued (alternatively be issued through conversion of convertibles and/or exercise of warrants) shall not exceed 7,500 shares, which corresponds to a dilution of approximately 10 percent calculated on the current number of ordinary shares in the company. The purpose of the authorization and reason for any deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is to enable the company to raise working capital, to execute acquisitions of companies or operating assets as well as to enable issues to new investors. To the extent an issue is made with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, the issue should be made on market terms.
The board of directors, or a person appointed by the board of directors, shall be authorized to make such minor formal adjustments of the resolution as might be necessary in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Sw. Bolagsverket).
For a valid resolution, the proposal has to be supported by shareholders representing at least two-thirds of the votes cast as well as the shares represented at the AGM.
Resolution on issue of warrants, item 14
The board of directors proposes that the AGM resolves to issue warrants, with the intention of creating a close community of interest between the employees and the shareholders, to create a long-term commitment to the company, and to retain competent, motivated and committed employees who are crucial to the company's long-term success. The share issue shall mainly take place on the following terms:
1. The board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolve to carry out a private placement in respect of not more than 984 warrants.
2. The right to subscribe for the warrants shall vest in certain identified key employees, as set out below. The reason for not applying the shareholders’ pre-emption rights is an agreement between the shareholders.
a. Strategic Advisor– 984 warrants
3. A subscription price in SEK shall be paid for each warrant, corresponding to the market value of the warrant.
4. Subscription through payment for the warrants shall take place within three weeks of the date of the resolution to issue warrants. The board of directors shall be entitled to extend the subscription period.
5. Each warrant entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the company during the period:
a. From August 31, 2024 up to and including 30 November 2026 (for series 1),
b. From August 31, 2024 up to and including 30 November 2027 (for series 2), and

7. Any share premium shall be transferred to the unrestricted premium reserve.
8. The complete terms and conditions for the warrants are set out in the board of directors' proposal for complete terms and conditions for the warrants. As stated therein, the subscription price, as well as the number of shares that a warrant entitles to subscribe for, may be recalculated in the event of a bonus issue, new share issue and in certain other cases.
9. The increase of the company's share capital will, upon exercise of the warrants, amount to a maximum of SEK 9,840, however, subject to the increase that may be caused by recalculation of the subscription price and the number of shares that each warrant entitles to subscribe for may occur as a result of issues of shares/subscription rights etc.
The board of directors, or a person appointed by the board of directors, shall be authorized to make such minor formal adjustments of the resolution as might be necessary in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Sw. Bolagsverket).
