Proposal for resolution on (A) the implementation of and guidelines for an incentive program and (B) a directed issue of warrants (item 16)
A. Resolution on the implementation of and guidelines for incentive program TO 2026/2029:1
The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolve to implement incentive program TO 2026/2029:1 in accordance with the guidelines specified below:
- The incentive program shall include a maximum of 250,000 warrants to be offered to members of the Company’s executives at a market valuation based on the Black & Scholes option pricing model. The warrant premium has been provisionally calculated at SEK 2.55 per warrant.
- Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one (1) new share in the Company at a subscription price corresponding to 150 per cent of the volume-weighted average price calculated as the average of the daily volume-weighted transaction price for the Company’s share on the official price list of Nasdaq Stockholm over the 20 trading days immediately following the 2026 annual general meeting.
- Once the 20 trading days have elapsed and the subscription price has been determined, the warrant premium shall be finally calculated with the assistance of external advisers (which is expected to take place at the end of May 2026).
- The board of directors is authorised to decide which of the Company’s executives are offered warrants and the number thereof, according to the following criteria:
| Category | No. of participants | Maximum no. per participant |
| CEO | 1 | 100,000 |
| Company executives | 3 | 50,000 |
In the event that a person offered participation declines or does not subscribe for his or her full allocation, the board of directors is entitled to reallocate any remaining warrants to other participants.
- Notification (by subscription) of participation in the program (following the board’s offer) must be received by the Company no later than 15 June 2026. Payment of the warrant premium and allocation of warrants must occur no later than 30 June 2026.
- A condition for allocation is that the participant has entered into the warrant agreement established by the board of directors, containing customary terms regarding restrictions on disposal, vesting, repurchase rights, etc., whereby the vesting period shall be at least three (3) years.
- The holder may exercise the allocated warrants to subscribe for new shares during a 30-day period following the publication of the interim report for the second quarter of 2029 (which is expected to take place in July–August 2029). If no Interim report is issued, exercise through the subscription for new shares may instead take place during August 2029.
- The warrants shall be subject to the detailed terms and conditions set out in the board’s complete proposal. The board shall be responsible for the design and administration of the incentive program within the framework of the guidelines set out above.
B. Resolution on a directed issue of warrants
The board proposes that the annual general meeting resolve on a directed issue of a maximum of 250,000 warrants, entailing an increase in share capital upon full exercise of a maximum of SEK 625,000. The following main terms and conditions shall apply to the resolution.
- The right to subscribe for the warrants shall, in deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, be granted to members of the Company’s executives who participate in the TO 2026/2029:1 incentive program. The board of directors is entitled to decide on the allocation of warrants among participants in accordance with the established criteria for the TO 2026/2029:1 incentive program.
- The reasons for the deviation from shareholders’ preferential rights are to increase incentives for the Company’s executives and strengthen their long-term commitment to the Company, which is considered beneficial for the Company and its shareholders. The board also considers that the warrant programme contributes to retaining executives.
- The warrants are issued at a premium corresponding to the market value calculated using the Black & Scholes option pricing model. The warrant premium has been provisionally calculated at SEK 2.55 per warrant. Final valuation will be carried out by the board prior to the participants’ subscription for the warrants and will be based on prevailing market conditions at that time.
- Subscription for the warrants shall occur on a subscription list no later than 15 June 2026. Payment of the warrant premium must be made no later than 30 June 2026. The board has the right to extend the subscription and payment period.
- Each warrant entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company at a subscription price corresponding to 150 per cent of the volume-weighted average price calculated as the average of the daily volume-weighted transaction price for the Company’s share on the official price list of Nasdaq Stockholm over 20 trading days commencing on 23 April 2026, but at least corresponding to the quota value of the share.
- Subscription for new shares with support of the warrants can occur during a 30-day period after the announcement of the interim report for the second quarter of 2029 (which is expected to occur in July–August 2029). If no interim report is issued, exercise through subscription for new shares can instead occur during the month of August 2029. However, subscription must not occur in violation of agreements made as a condition for the allocation of warrants or otherwise in violation of the EU Market Abuse Regulation (596/2014/EU) or other applicable legislation.
- The warrants shall also be subject to other conditions as stated in the board’s complete proposal.
- The board of directors, or a person appointed by the board, is authorised to make minor adjustments necessary for the registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Sw. Bolagsverket).
Majority required
The general meeting’s resolution on the introduction of incentive program TO 2026/2029:1 and the directed issue of warrants, requires support by shareholders representing at least nine-tenths (9/10) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the general meeting.
Motives for the incentive program and its preparation
The motives for the incentive program, as well as the reasons for the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, are that a personal and long-term commitment to ownership among the Company’s executives is expected to stimulate increased interest in the business and earnings performance, boost motivation and foster a sense of belonging to the Company. The board considers that such an issue may be beneficial to the Company and its shareholders.
The proposal has been prepared by the board in consultation with external advisers. The final proposal has been presented by the board.
Valuation
The proposal entails that the person entitled to subscribe participates in the TO 2026/2029:1 incentive program on market terms. The warrant premium for the subscription option shall be determined based on the established Black & Scholes option valuation method, whereby the option value is determined based on the share price, volatility, risk-free interest rate, time to exercise and exercise price. The calculation of the warrant premium will be carried out by BDO.
Costs and dilution
In the board’s assessment, the Company will not incur any costs for social security contributions in relation to the TO 2026/2029:1 incentive program. The Company’s costs are therefore expected to consist solely of costs for the implementation and practical administration of the program.
If all warrants are subscribed for and exercised, the dilution effect may amount to a maximum of approximately 1.3 per cent, calculated on the number of shares following full exercise of the warrants.
Existing share-based incentive program
The Company has no outstanding incentive programs.
Proposal for a resolution on the authorization of the board of directors to resolve on new issues of shares, convertible bonds, and/or warrants (item 17)
The board of directors proposes the annual general meeting to authorize the board of directors to, during the period until the next annual general meeting and on one or more occasions, resolve on new issues of shares, convertible bonds, and/or warrants, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights. If the decision on the issue is made with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the number of shares that may be issued through new issues of shares, conversion of convertible bonds, or exercise of warrants must not exceed ten (10) per cent of the total number of shares at the time the authorization is first used (calculated after full utilization of the proposed authorization). Decisions on the issue may be made with provisions for non-cash consideration, set-off, cash payment, and/or other conditions.
The purpose of the authorization is to provide flexibility for acquisitions of companies, businesses, or parts thereof, and to increase the financial flexibility for BE Group.
The board, the CEO, or the person appointed by the board, shall have the right to make minor adjustments to the annual general meeting's decision that may be necessary in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
Voting majority
The resolution of the annual general meeting on the authorization of the board of directors to decide on new issues of shares, convertible bonds, and/or warrants is valid only if it is supported by shareholders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
Proposal for a resolution on the authorization of the board of directors to resolve on purchase of the Company’s own shares (item 18)
To provide the board of directors with increased flexibility in managing the Company's capital structure and enhancing shareholder value, as well as to enable financing of minor company acquisitions, the board of directors proposes the annual general meeting to authorize the board of directors, on one or more occasions, until the annual general meeting in 2027, to resolve on the purchase of own shares accordingly:
- Purchases may be made of up to such a number of shares that the Company's own holdings at any time do not exceed ten (10) percent of all shares in the Company.
- Purchases may only be made on Nasdaq Stockholm.
- Purchases may only be made at a price within the prevailing price range at any given time, meaning the range between the highest independent bid price and the lowest independent ask price on the trading venue where the share is traded. However, for acquisitions carried out by a stock exchange member on the Company’s behalf, the price for own shares may correspond to the volume‑weighted average price during the period in which the shares were acquired, even if the volume‑weighted average price on the delivery date to the Company falls outside the price range.
- Payment for the shares should be made in cash.
The board of directors has issued a statement pursuant to Chapter 19, Section 22 of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551) (Sw. aktiebolagslagen).
Voting majority
The resolution of the annual general meeting on the authorization for the Board of Directors to decide on the purchase of own shares is valid only if it is supported by shareholders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
Proposal for a resolution on the authorization of the board of directors to resolve on transfer of the Company’s own shares (item 19)
The board of directors proposes the annual general meeting to authorize the board of directors to resolve, on one or several occasions no later than the annual general meeting 2027, on the transfer of the Company’s own shares accordingly:
- Transfers may be made with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights to a third party.
- Transfers may comprise no more shares than those held by the Company at the time of the board’s decision.
- Transfers of shares may be carried out on or outside Nasdaq Stockholm.
- Transfers may be made as payment of all or part of the purchase price in connection with the acquisition of a company or business, or a part thereof, whereby the consideration shall correspond to the market value of the share as assessed by the board of directors. In such transfers, payment may be made in kind or through set‑off against a claim on BE Group.
- Transfers may also be made for cash consideration through sales on Nasdaq Stockholm, at a price within the price range applicable at the time, meaning the range between the highest independent bid price and the lowest independent ask price on the trading venue where the share is traded at the time of disposal.
- The board of directors shall be authorised to determine any additional terms and conditions for the transfer.
The board of directors, the CEO, or any person appointed by the board, shall be authorised to make such minor adjustments to the resolution of the general meeting as may prove necessary in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB, or as a result of other formal requirements.
The purpose of the authorisation, and the reasons for any deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, is to enable the financing of smaller business acquisitions through payment with the Company’s own shares and to allow continuous adaptation of the Company’s capital and share structure, thereby contributing to increased shareholder value.
Voting majority
The resolution of the annual general meeting on the authorization of the board of directors to resolve on transfer of the Company’s own shares is valid only if it is supported by shareholders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
